Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"Will Monsieur kindly let me go. Monsieur shouldn't play the
child, either." (I let her go.) "Madame could have the world at
her feet. Indeed she has it there only she doesn't care for it."


How talkative she was, this maid with unsealed lips! For some
reason or other this last statement of hers brought me immense
comfort.


"Yes?" I whispered breathlessly.
