Quotes3

  • Prince De Gace: You are like the orchids of your country - you have the same cold enchantment. In Java the orchids grow wild - and their perfume fills the air.
  • Lillie Sterling: And the women of Java - do they grow wild, too?
  • Prince De Gace: Not wild - but natural. They do not pretend to be cold - The heat - the everlasting heat - strips everyone of all pretense. It would be fascinating to learn whether your coldness - is only a pretense.
  • Lillie Sterling: John, didn't you notice anything strange in the Prince's attitude toward me?
  • John Sterling: There's something strange about all foreigners!
  • Lillie Sterling: He said - I was like an orchid - He said - Java strips women of all pretense - And then - he took me in his arms - and kissed me.
