‘What do you recommend, father,’ asked Louisa, her reserved composure not in the least affected by these gratifying results, ‘that I should substitute for the term I used just now? For the misplaced expression?’
— Чем вы предлагаете заменить то слово, которое я употребила и которое вы нашли неуместным? — спросила Луиза все так же сдержанно и холодно, вопреки обнадеживающим выводам, к которым пришел ее отец.

Our psycho-analytic studies of neurotic people have however led us to form two further expectations which it would be gratifying to find confirmed in each particular case.
