Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


I thought it _was_ cruel, when I saw his countenance so moved. No
matter whether he was to blame or not; somebody, it seemed to me, must
be more to blame.


"What shall you do about it?" he inquired of me. "Shall you tell
Madame Beck what you have found, and cause a stir--an esclandre?"


I thought I ought to tell, and said so; adding that I did not believe
there would be either stir or esclandre: Madame was much too prudent
to make a noise about an affair of that sort connected with her
establishment.
