When the young commander of the guard declared his love for her, she rejected him simply because his frivolity startled her. "See how simple he is," she told Amaranta. "He says that he’s dying because of me, as if I were a bad case of colic."

Congratulations and happy birthday to Maria Jorge Esteves de Almeida.
It's also interesting to note she is the third person born in Portugal to reach the age of 114 (and the oldest person ever born in Coimbra District).
