“Nobody said not to go.”
Emily Hahn
“The steward just asked me if I was not afraid to travel alone, and I said, "Why, it is life.”
Emily Hahn, Congo Solo: Misadventures Two Degrees North
“The Bohemian who tires of life, who gives up by retirement into insamity or suicide, is not necessarily one who had failed in what he wants to express.”
Emily Hahn, Romantic Rebels: An Informal History of Bohemianism in America
“There had been a time, until 1422, when a number of both Gaelic and Anglo-Irish students attended Oxford and Cambridge in England. But fellow students had complained that Irish living together in large numbers sooner or later got noisy and violent and there was no handling them.

Emily Hahn, Fractured Emerald: Ireland
