𝐀 𝐋𝐀𝐃𝐘'𝐒 𝐆𝐔𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐂𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐌𝐄𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐈𝐂𝐒 :    A SENTENCE MEME FOR THE NOVEL BY OLIVIA WAITE .    change pronouns as needed !
you aren’t alone .  you have me .
doesn’t  ______  know you don’t love him ?
does ______ know you love me ?
you don’t have any suitors ,  do you ?
it’s high time you were settled .
don’t you dare .
it’s a pleasure to meet you in person at last .
out of all the places you’ve seen ,  is there one in particular that you treasure most ?
did you ever go back ?
i’m afraid the journey has worn me out more than i thought .
please allow me to apologize for being a poor hostess last evening .
it’s better than tea .
did you mean it as an insult ?
may i ask a favor of you ?
i am not sure how much use i could be .
i can promise you there will be no poetry .
she was the dearest friend i’ve ever had .
the light is much better on this side of the house .
what kind of plant is that ?
it’s striking .
is there something else ?
it’s been an age .
i think it’s an excellent suggestion .
that is a proper scientific line of inquiry .
i’m afraid that there can be no solution to our present quandry .
you tried to warn me about how it would be .
i had no idea they would be like that .
not everything can be explained by geometry .
he’s doomed to be wrong his whole life .
i’m always crying in front of you ,  aren’t i ?
one of these buttons is loose .
may i speak plainly ?
i have made my wishes clear .
i think it’s a good idea .  a kind idea .  maybe even a beautiful idea .
you must miss her very much .
she was my very soul .
even if it comes to nothing ,  what else are you to do ?  sit around being miserable and bemoaning the ways of the world ?
the ways of the world aren’t so permanent as they say .
there were times and places one could be quite open about such things .
who’s going to stop us ?
a gift for me ?
i don’t think love works like that .  
may i kiss you ?
i keep it upstairs .  in my bedroom .
i assumed i was the first woman you ever kissed .  was i ?
so you are drawn to dark haired ,  troublesome women ?
too fast ?
don’t you want to do more than kiss me ?
i’m not sure i want to wait as long as that .
i’ve thought about this all day .
i am terribly embarrassed about how i behaved last night .
i care much more about truth than propriety .
i do not perform experiments .
how much of your innocence can i ruin in the course of an evening ?
i’m already reasonably ruined .
i understand if you’re afraid ,  but i’m not .
where on earth are you going ?
how was that for novelty ?
i feel positively licentious .
you ought to have stayed home and learned about good - old fashioned english debauchery ,  as i did .
lord knows what she imagined we’d been doing .
we’ve done nothing to be ashamed about .
surely this isn’t the first secret you’ve had to trust the servants with ?
that’s awful .  it’s  —-  unscientific !
i’m afraid i must bid you farewell .
maybe we shouldn’t speak at all for a little while .
are you certain it’s wise ?
i hope he apologized .
i am trying to tell you i love you ,  and you are making it impossible .
i have a proposal to make to you .
ask me truly .
you are brilliant ,  and that’s the truth .
where do we start ?
