“Do let him read the papers. But not while you accusingly tiptoe around the room, or perch much like a silent bird of prey on the edge of your most uncomfortable chair.

But kiss him quickly, before you go, otherwise he might think you are angry; he is used to suspecting he is doing something wrong.”
Marlene Dietrich
