Daily Dose

From Charles Dickens and the Great Theatre of the World, by Simon Callow

"She liked to say that she had been dancing all night the day before Charles was born; diligent research has shown the ball took place four days earlier, which only goes to show what a spoilsport diligent research can be."

From Chapter One, Paradise
