Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"What's the good of getting you anything to eat, my dear young
Monsieur," she quizzed me tenderly. "You just only peck like a
little bird. Much better let me save the money for you." It will
show the super-terrestrial nature of my misery when I say that I
was quite surprised at Therese's view of my appetite. Perhaps she
was right. I certainly did not know. I stared hard at her and in
the end she admitted that the dinner was in fact ready that very
moment.
