"Isn't it jolly—to be here in a real Academy of Fine Arts, just like all the famous artists when they were young and unknown? Doesn't it make you feel all excited and quivery, Norn?" asked Patricia, as she fitted her key into the narrow gray locker with an air of huge enjoyment. "I don't see how you can look so cool.

"Thank you so much," she said in a tone of such even sweetness that Patricia felt uncomfortable, though she did not know why. "'We!'" echoed Patricia. "You mean how you get along.
