“She looked dreamily across the open fields that slept in the sun.
—
“‘I have a lover as well, you know,’ she said, with assurance . . .
—
“‘I’m very glad for your sake,’ he said, ‘that you are satisfied.’
—
“‘Aye—but the man doesn’t matter so much,’ she said. There was a pause . . . ‘It is one’s self that matters,’ she said. ‘Whether one is being one’s own self and serving one’s own God.’” — D. H. Lawrence; The Shades of Spring
