It is not so much the example of others we imitate, as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.

In America every woman has her set of girl-friends; some are cousins, the rest are gained at school. These form a permanent committee who sit on each other's affairs, who come out together, marry and divorce together, and who end as those groups of bustling, heartless well-informed club-women who govern society.
