"Last night in bed I was thinking of the sort of man I really could love, but he'd be different from anybody I've ever met. He'd have to have certain things. He wouldn't necessarily be very handsome, but pleasant looking; and with a good figure, and strong. And he'd have to have some kind of position in the world or else not care whether he had one or not; if you see what I mean. He'd have to be a leader, not just like everybody else. And dignified, but very posh, and with lots of experience, so I'd believe everything he said or thought was right. And everytime I looked at him I'd have to get that tingle I sometimes get out of a new man; only with him I'd have to get it over and over everytime I looked at him, all my life" "And you'd want him to be very much in love with you. That's what I'd want first of all." "Of course," said Josephine abstractedly, "but principally I'd want to be always sure of loving him. It's much more fun to love someone thatn to be loved by someone."
