Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"Of her?" she repeated in a louder voice. "Why should I talk of
another woman? And then she is a great lady."


At this I could not repress a smile which she detected at once.


"Isn't she? Well, no, perhaps she isn't; but you may be sure of
one thing, that she is both flesh and shadow more than any one that
I have seen. Keep that well in your mind: She is for no man! She
would be vanishing out of their hands like water that cannot be
held."
