From J.M. Barrie by What Every Woman Knows

It’s siller, then? JOHN . My first year at college I lived on a barrel of potatoes, and we had just a sofa-bed between two of us; when the one lay down the other had to get up. Do you think it was hardship? It was sublime. But this year I can’t afford it. I’ll have to stay on here, collecting the tickets of the illiterate, such as you, when I might be with Romulus and Remus among the stars. JAMES . Havers. DAVID . Whist, James. I must say, young lad, I like your spirit. Now tell me, what’s your professors’ opinion of your future.
