Quotation from: The Secret Agent

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"Meantime it's you who get something from it--so far. And you get it
easily, too. I won't speak of your salary, but haven't you made your
name simply by not understanding what we are after?"


"What are you after, then?" asked Chief Inspector Heat, with scornful
haste, like a man in a hurry who perceives he is wasting his time.


The perfect anarchist answered by a smile which did not part his thin
colourless lips; and the celebrated Chief Inspector felt a sense of
superiority which induced him to raise a warning finger.
