On Scarlett: She had no mind, but she had a mind of her own; she had no subtlety but she had a genius for getting below the surface of things and knowing their reality; she was full of pretense and wile, but she was impatient of all sham, convention and shibboleth...She was not a lady, though she wanted to be, but a magnificent woman, a vital, proud, passionate creature...sentimental but without nonsense, deeply rooted in the soil of Tara, but uprooted too, and lost.
