Mrs. Carry Fisher
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: A clever woman would know just when to play her cards right, but Lily's never been very clever in that way.
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: What do you say to putting a few things in a trunk and spending the summer with me and the Gormers?
- Lily Bart: To take me out of my friends' way, you mean?
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: To keep you out of their sight till they realize how much they miss you. Besides, The Gormers have taken a tremendous fancy to you. Oh, I know they're not quite your set, they're kind of a social Coney Island, but anyone is welcome who makes noise and doesn't put on airs.
- Lily Bart: Yes. I shall come.
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: Lily, you must marry - as soon as you can.
- Lily Bart: Do you mean to recommend me to a good man's love?
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: No, I don't think either of my candidates would answer to that description.
- Lily Bart: Either? There are actually two?
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: Well, perhaps I ought to say one and a half.
- Lily Bart: Other things being equal, I think I should prefer half a husband.
- Mrs. Carry Fisher: By the way, I had a visit from Mattie Gormer the other day. She was with Bertha Dorset of all people.
- Lily Bart: No doubt the rabbit always thinks it is fascinating the anaconda.
