The Shadowy Third Quotes

“The afternoon slipped away while we talked -- she talked brightly when any subject came up that interested her -- and it was the last hour of day -- that grave, still hour when the movement of life seems to droop and falter for a few precious minutes -- that brought us the thing I had dreaded silently since my first night in the house.”
― Ellen Glasgow, The Shadowy Third

“the human is sometimes as inscrutable, as inexplicable, as the supernatural.”
― Ellen Glasgow, The Shadowy Third
