“Remember that is your handkerchief and that is your sleeve. Don’t mistake one for the other if you wish to be a lady in a shop.”
I found this quote to be very funny because I can relate to it. Every week my sister and I go horseback riding, and when we do she carries a handkerchief with her to pat her face when she sweats. I always tease her and call her a pansy for using her handkerchief when she has a perfectly good sleeve. She says it is ladylike that way but my response is always that she is on the back of a horse, be a real cowgirl!
