Julia Quinn Quote
This Author has come to the conclusion that there are rakes, and there are Rakes.Anthony Bridgerton is a Rake.A rake (lower-case) is youthful and immature. He flaunts his exploits, behaves with utmost idiocy, and thinks himself dangerous to women.A Rake (upper-case) knows he is dangerous to women.He doesn’t flaunt his exploits because he doesn’t need to. He knows he will be whispered about by men and women alike, and in fact, he’d rather they didn’t whisper about him at all. He knows who he is and what he has done; further recountings are, to him, redundant.He doesn’t behave like an idiot for the simple reason that he isn’t an idiot
