My favor...Great show, I agree.<br /><br />I love your quote.<br /><br />My favorite is also from the countess when she tells her grandaughter:<br />"Women don't have opinions until they marry. Then, their husbands will tell them what to think."<br /><br />You can read my review below if interested.

Maggie Smith is such a treasure. <br /><br />Got a new book for you - The Donna. Author is friend of girl in our book club. Great storyline, medievalish, with girls/women who are secretly the protectors of the king and other high up nobility. Everyone else thinks they are the lowest echelon in society, just some type of boring servant. Actually they are trained heavily in combat skills (only to be used in the most dire need to maintain the secret), matters of diplomacy, spycraft, etc. Super YA book. Set to be a series of 4. The negative - Needs better editing, everyone pointed out typos and some rough patches that were a little contradictory, but the premise is fascinating.Lisa Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10585830783257394888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150817862373096424.post-1893263665600508552011-02-03T03:26:37.711-08:002011-02-03T03:26:37.711-08:00Love your quote Michelle.Love your quote Michelle.ImageNationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021414643103601330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150817862373096424.post-24760498651482400302011-02-02T19:24:36.013-08:002011-02-02T19:24:36.013-08:00My favorite exchange so far also involves the Coun...My favorite exchange so far also involves the Countess. Here it is (no spoilers, don't worry): <br /><br />Lady Grantham: "You are quite wonderful the way you see room for improvement wherever you look. I never knew such reforming zeal."<br /><br />Mrs. Crawley: "I take that as a compliment."<br /><br />Lady Grantham: "I must've said it wrong."<br /><br />Love it! And the whole show! I'm already anxiously awaiting the second season!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
