Gloria Stuart

"A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets."

"And it looks the same as it did the last time I saw it."

"It was the ship of dreams to everyone else."

"To me, it was a slave ship taking me back to America in chains."

"Outwardly, I was everything a well-brought up girl should be."

"I saw my whole life as if I already lived it."

"An endless parade of parties and cotillions, yachts and polo matches."

"Always the same narrow people, the same mindless chatter."

"I felt like I was standing at a great precipice, with no one to pull me back, no one who cared or even noticed."

"There were 20 boats floating nearby and only one came back."

"Afterward, the 700 people in the boats had nothing to do but wait."
