M. Laurence The Stone Angel (lsa)
He’s okay, I guess. He didn’t say much. He had a half-bread girl there to cook for him last winter, but she went away in spring and didn’t come back.”
“To cook, ” I said sourly. “I’ll let.”
LSA , SA, 148
Where’s Marvin? I don’t hear either of them moving about downstairs. Can they have gone to bed this early?
Every last one of them has gone away and left me. I never left them. It was the other way around, I swear. LSA 145
I will be quite, I swear, never open my mounth, not obligingly, keep myself to myself for good and all. And yet, even as I swear it, I know it’s nonsense and impossible for me. I can’t keep my mouth shut. I never could. LSA , 79
I guess maybe I shouldn’t have told you . LSA , SA, 64
Full of petunias, I suppose.
They are – more like hotels, I guess. LSA 65
“Tina’s to have the brown jug, Doris.”
I know. You’ve been telling her that for years.”
“Well? What if I have? I like things properly seen to. Anyway, none of you will get a thing yet. I’m only preparing against the day. But it won’t be for a while yet, I can promise you that? You needn’t think otherwise.
I suppose that’s what you’re saying. LSA , 51
- I find it’s well worth while.
- I want to teach?
- I believe.
LSA, 37
Canstative… LSA , 47
- “I guess life must have been quite difficult in those days, eh?”
“I guess you grew up on the farm, eh, Mrs Shipley?” LSA 35
“Care for a little more lemon slice, Mother?”
“No, thank you, Marvin.” LSA 29
Who choose Marvin for his name? Bram, I suppose. A Shiplay family name, it was, I think. LSA , 27
I think – 73, 81, 96, 106, 129, 239
I believe – 188
I guess – 77, 103, 114, 129, 148, 179, 185, 210, 213, 226, 227, 247, 257
I expect – 89
I hope – 92, 197, 258, 274,
I suppose – 104, 110, 141, 147, 182, 226, 248, 248, 265,
I wish – 80, 119, 145, 254
thanks – 106, 102-123, 175, 183, 188, 199, 226, 261, 264, 269, 272, 274
Good-bye- 92, 256
LSA
“Would Mrs Shipley – senior, I mean care for a cup of tea on the veranda, while we what in here? I’m sure she’d enjoy meeting some of our old people.”
“Oh thanks, that wuld be just lovely, wouldn’t it, Mother?” LSA , 87
“Don’t go,” I plead. “You won’t tell Marvin I’m here, will you? I’m all right. I’m quite comfortable here. You do see that?”
“Sure, sure. I see.”
“Promise you won’t tell, then.”
“I promise, ” he says. LSA 219
“You try to sleep now”.
“All right, I will.” I want to please her now, to say something that will please her. “I’ll try. I promise.” LSA , 245
“I mean to clean up”, John said. “But I never got around to it”. LSA 151
Really, I ask you – what’s her mother thinking of, to allow? LSA 121
I had to shush her like a baby. Even Esther cried, but I must admit she had to work at it. LSA , 91
“I see you been talking to Miss Tyrrwhitt,” she says. “Who’s stolen a march on her this time, may I inquire?” LSA , 90
“He thought of Miss Passon again.” “You mean he killed himself ?”
“I bet you every penny I possess.” LSA , 203
