See? Doesn't that make more sense?

The minute he walked into a room and smiled at me, I was a goner.

George Eliot

We mortals, men and women, devour many a disappointment between breakfast and dinner-time; keep back the tears and look a little pale about the lips, and in answer to inquiries say, "Oh, nothing!"
