I want to, but it's not a thing you can do lightly. (ELIZABETH: I don't know why there more than elsewhere.) In England if people don't get on they go their own ways and jog along after a fashion. In a place like that you're thrown a great deal on your own resources. (ELIZABETH: Of course.) Lots of girls come out because they think they're going to have a good time. But if they're empty-headed, then they're just faced with their own emptiness and they're done. If their husbands can afford it they go home and settle down as grass-widows.
