I saw standing against the great stone pillar - on more red plush - a tall, slim boy in evening dress - so much slimmer, so much taller, so much more poised than I expected. A very refined face, not at all like those grinning 'Lindy' pictures - a firm mouth, clear, straight blue eyes, fair hair, and nice color. Then I went down the line very confused and overwhelmed by it all. He did not smile - just bowed and shook hands. (Anne Morrow Lindbergh)
