If they found a mine worth the developing, probably they would sell it and blow in the proceeds and be off again as soon as possible. They have been too long away from civilization for anything to surprise them. The desert is mysterious, the loneliness makes everything possible.,Johnny Blossom handed her the two half-dollars, speaking fast and feeling in a great hurry to get away.

Is life so sweet a possession that one need quail before the thought of resigning it?","Yes, you do," says Mona, with a little obstinate shake of her head. "You call us dirty, for one thing.","But," continued Judith with emphasis, "I must say that, dirt and all, it is more glorious-ified than I thought it would be.
