Quotation from: A Set of Six

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"Yes. But still I don't see why, to one's colonel. . . . A colonel is a
father--que diable!"


Lieut. D'Hubert ought not to have been allowed out as yet. He was
becoming aware of his physical insufficiency with humiliation and
despair. But the morbid obstinacy of an invalid possessed him, and at
the same time he felt with dismay his eyes filling with water. This
trouble seemed too big to handle. A tear fell down the thin, pale cheek
of Lieut. D'Hubert.
