It's hard to choose among so many remarkable people who have lived.

Mustn't it be splendid to be remarkable and have compositions written about you after you're dead?
Oh, I would dearly love to be remarkable.

I think when I grow up I'll be a trained nurse and go with the Red Crosses to the field of battle as a messenger of mercy.

That is, if I don't go out as a foreign missionary.

That would be very romantic, but one would have to be very good to be a missionary, and that would be a stumbling block.
