Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


In sober truth my soul remained in revolt though I was convinced
that I was no longer dreaming. I watched Therese coming away from
the window with that helpless dread a man bound hand and foot may
be excused to feel. For in such a situation even the absurd may
appear ominous. She came up close to the bed and folding her hands
meekly in front of her turned her eyes up to the ceiling.


"If I had been her daughter she couldn't have spoken more softly to
me," she said sentimentally.
