Quotes
-
Prince De Gace : The East is a country of the senses - warm, mysterious - like the kiss of a lover.
-
Prince De Gace : You are like the orchids of your country - you have the same cold enchantment. In Java the orchids grow wild - and their perfume fills the air.
Lillie Sterling : And the women of Java - do they grow wild, too?
Prince De Gace : Not wild - but natural. They do not pretend to be cold - The heat - the everlasting heat - strips everyone of all pretense. It would be fascinating to learn whether your coldness - is only a pretense.
-
Prince De Gace : Your husband thought you would be safer if I remained with you.
