Reflective Reading
“Now I am old-fashioned. A woman, I
consider, should be womanly. I have no
patience with the modern neurotic girl
who jazzes from morning to night,
smokes like a chimney, and uses
language which would make a
billingsgate fishwoman blush!”
― Agatha Christie

Reflective Reading
• “They were smart and sophisticated, with an air of
independence about them, and so casual about their
looks and clothes and manners as to be almost
slapdash. I don't know if I realized as soon as I began
seeing them that they represented the wave of the
future, but I do know I was drawn to them. I shared
their restlessness, understood their determination to
free themselves of the Victorian shackles of the preWorld War I era and find out for themselves what life
was all about.”
― Colleen Moore at

Reflective Reading
• “Everywhere was the atmosphere of a long
debauch that had to end; the orchestras
played too fast, the stakes were too high at
the gambling tables, the players were so
empty, so tired, secretly hoping to vanish
together into sleep and ... maybe wake on a
very distant morning and hear nothing,
whatever, no shouting or crooning, find all
things changed.”
― Malcolm Cowley

Reflective Reading
• “How paltry are the traces left behind by a
life, even one concentrated around those
supposed things of permanence called words.
We spend our time upon the earth and then
disappear, and only one one-thousandth of
what we were lasts. We send all those bottles
out into the ocean and so few wash up on
shore.” ― John Darnton

• “(...)"Flapper"— the notorious character type

danced in a shockingly immodest fashion with
a revolving cast of male suitors.”
― Joshua Zeitz,
