Naomi Novik Quote

Keynes, quite ignoring the covert gestures, the attempts at signaling, of nearly every senior officer, examined [Lily] and declared that she was perfectly fit to fly, had better fly, I should say; this agitation is unnatural, and must be worked off.But perhaps, Laurence said, voicing the reluctance which the captains all privately shared, and they as a body began to suggest flights out over the ocean, along the scenic and settled coastline and back; gentle exercise.I hope, Catherine said, going pink clear up to her forehead in a wave of color, I hope that no-one is going to fuss; I would dislike fuss extremely.
