Quotation from: The Secret Agent

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"He was an extraordinary lad, that brother of yours. Most interesting to
study. A perfect type in a way. Perfect!"


He spoke scientifically in his secret fear. And Mrs Verloc, hearing
these words of commendation vouchsafed to her beloved dead, swayed
forward with a flicker of light in her sombre eyes, like a ray of
sunshine heralding a tempest of rain.


"He was that indeed," she whispered softly, with quivering lips. "You
took a lot of notice of him, Tom. I loved you for it."
