Viola De Lesseps I will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all. No... not the artful postures of love, not playful and poetical games of love for the amusement of an evening, but love that... over-throws life. Unbiddable, ungovernable - like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love - like there has never been in a play. Viola De Lesseps Good sir? I heard you were a poet. But a poet of no words? Viola De Lesseps This is not life, Will. It is a stolen season.
