Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


I heard her say twice to herself: "Mon Dieu! Mon, Dieu!" and then
a dismayed: "What can Monsieur expect me to do?" But I had to
appear insensible to her distress and that not altogether because,
in fact, I had no option but to go away. I remember also a
distinct wilfulness in my attitude and something half-contemptuous
in my words as I laid my hand on the knob of the front door.


"You will tell Madame that I am gone. It will please her. Tell
her that I am gone--heroically."
