(Dorothea Lange)
"Mama, how silly you are! You know I've always been in love with Ben−since I can first remember. I know he is in love with Elsie Stoneman. I am too young, the world too beautiful, and life too sweet to grieve over my first baby love. I expect to dance with him at his wedding, then meet my fate and build my own nest."
−Thomas Dixon Jr. (The Clansman)
