"I began to read a story once. It had been a good one. There is in it not really a solo allusion to brandy-and-soda, or divorce, or the stock market. The dialogue crackled. The hero talked like a live man. It had been a shipboard report, and the heroine was charming as long as she wore her heavy ulster. But along toward evening she blossomed forth in a yellow outfit, with a scarlet poinsettia at her neck. I stop her cold. Nobody ever wore a scarlet poinsettia; or if they did, they couldn't use it on a yellow gown. Or if they did use it with a yellow outfit, they didn't use it at the neck. Scarlet poinsettias aren't worn, anyhow. To this day I have no idea if the heroine married the hero or jumped overboard. The simple truth is, one can not be too careful about clothing one's heroine."
