“Sometimes, in my days as a maid, I would hang them all up to dry off in the wash together in a row. They’d look like flags hung out by an army as it goes to war. […] Well since that time I’ve thought, why is it that women have chosen to sew such flags, and lay them on the tops of beds? For they make the bed the most noticeable thing in a room. And then I thought, it’s for a warning.

Because you may think a bed is a peaceful thing, sir. To you it may mean rest and comfort and a good night’s sleep. But it isn’t so for everyone. There are many dangerous things that may take place in a bed.

It’s where we are born, that’s our first peril in life. It’s where women give birth, which is often their last. And it’s where the act takes place between men and women, sir, that I will not mention to you, but I suppose you know what it is. Some call it love, others despair, or merely an indignity they must suffer through.

And finally beds are what we sleep in, and where we dream, and often where we die.”

I liked being early to rise. That way, I could pretend for a little while that the house was all my own.
