Quotes2

  • Libby's Aunt: [comforting Libby, who's crying about Woodrow's return] Well, that's the war for you. It's always hard on women. Either they take your men away and never send them back at all; or they send them back unexpectedly just to embarrass you. No consideration at all.
  • Mrs. Truesmith: Why can't you wear your uniform for a little while?
  • Libby's Aunt: You look so nice in it.
  • Woodrow Lafayette Pershing Truesmith: I just got through explaining it's against regulations.
  • Mrs. Truesmith: Well, I think that's perfectly ridiculous.
  • Libby: So do I.
  • Mrs. Truesmith: Your grandfather wore his Civil War uniform the rest of his life.
  • Libby's Aunt: Kept having new ones made.
  • Mrs. Truesmith: Said it helped remind people that brother fought brother.
  • Woodrow Lafayette Pershing Truesmith: [looking at Sgt. Heppelfinger] Well his case was different!
