“He was one of the most attentive husbands I’ve ever seen and one of the most devoted… I’ve never seen two people more completely in love as they were. I’ve never seen any two people that seemed to be so completely one.” — Virginia Durr

"A boy was leaving the shop as my taxi drew up in Parton Street, a short, square, dirty figure with a square white face and sweaty hair. ‘I’m looking for Esmond Romilly,’ I said.
‘Yes?’
He was instantly, dramatically, on his guard, conspiratorial, prepared for violent aggression or ingenious deceit. I thrilled and trembled more hysterically than ever.
‘I’m Toynbee,’ I said, ‘Toynbee of Rugby.’
Esmond looked sharply up and down the short street, then opened the shop door and pushed me through it."
