Edith Wharton Quote

I have sometimes thought that a woman's nature is like a great housefull of rooms: there is a hall, through which everyone passes in going in and out; the drawing-room, where one receives formal visits . . . and in the innermost room, the holy of holies,the soul sits alone and waits for a footstep that never comes.
