Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"Not in this room; not here," she protested, with that peculiar
suavity of tone which made her voice unforgettable, irresistible,
no matter what she said. "Not after all this! I couldn't close my
eyes in this place. It's full of corruption and ugliness all
round, in me, too, everywhere except in your heart, which has
nothing to do where I breathe. And here you may leave me. But
wherever you go remember that I am not evil, I am not evil."


I said: "I don't intend to leave you here. There is my room
upstairs. You have been in it before."
