Context


«I am careful.»
«No, you're not.»
«Well, other people are,» she said lightly.
«What's that got to do with it?»
«They'll keep out of my way,» she insisted. «It takes two to make an accident.»
«Suppose you met somebody just as careless as yourself.»
«I hope I never will,» she answered. «I hate careless people. That's why I like you.»
Her gray, sun-strained eyes stared straight ahead, but she had deliberately shifted our relations, and for a moment I thought I loved her.” source
