Elinore Pruitt Stewart Quote: “I communed with myself, after the manner of prodigals, and said: “How much better that I were down in Denver, even at Mrs. Coney’s, digging with a skewer into the corners seeking dirt which might be there, yea, even eating codfish, than that I should perish on this desert – of imagination.” So I turned the current of my imagination and fancied that I was at home before the fireplace, and that the backlog was about to roll down.”

Elinore Pruitt Stewart Quote: “Baby has the rabbit you gave her last Easter a year ago. In Denver I was afraid my baby would grow up devoid of imagination. Like all the kindergartners, she depended upon others to amuse her. I was very sorry about it, for my castles in Spain have been real homes to me. But there is no fear. She has a block of wood she found in the blacksmith shop which she calls her “dear baby.” A spoke out of a wagon wheel is “little Margaret,” and a barrel-stave is “bad little Johnny.”
