" "Well it certainly does depend a whole
lot what you are thinking with," said Jeff Campbell. "I never did use
to think I was so much on being real modest Melanctha, but now I know
really I am, when I hear you talking. I see all the time there are
many people living just as good as I am, though they are a little
different to me. Now with you Melanctha if I understand you right what
you are talking, you don't think that way of no other one that you are
ever knowing." "I certainly could be real modest too, Jeff Campbell,"
said Melanctha, "If I could meet somebody once I could keep right
on respecting when I got so I was really knowing with them. But I
certainly never met anybody like that yet, Jeff Campbell, if you want
to know it." "No, Melanctha, and with the way you got of thinking,
it certainly don't look like as if you ever will Melanctha, with your
never remembering anything only what you just then are feeling in you,
and you not understanding what any one else is ever feeling, if they
don't holler just the way you are doing. No Melanctha, I certainly
don't see any ways you are likely ever to meet one, so good as you are
always thinking you be." "No, Jeff Campbell, it certainly ain't
that way with me at all the way you say it. It's because I am always
knowing what it is I am wanting, when I get it. I certainly don't
never have to wait till I have it, and then throw away what I got in
me, and then come back and say, that's a mistake I just been making,
it ain't that never at all like I understood it, I want to have, bad,
what I didn't think it was I wanted.
