That boy's an angel. I can't wish you any better luck than that you get him.
gpt
Get him?
human
He is simply crazy about you, Nora. Can't talk about anything else, and you couldn't do better if you searched from one end of the United States to the other. He's of a splendid family, and he's going to make a big name for himself some day, you mark my words.

Yet I'd give my immortal soul to be with him again just for a few minutes even.
human
You would? she said.

You want to see him as much as all that?
human
Don't love any man like that, dear. None of them is worth it.
