Quotation from: Nostromo: A Tale of the Seaboard

Written by: Joseph Conrad


Linda said, "Ramirez is boasting in town that he will carry you off from
the island."


"What folly!" answered the other, and in a perversity born of long
restraint, she added: "He is not the man," in a jesting tone with a
trembling audacity.


"No?" said Linda, through her clenched teeth. "Is he not? Well, then,
look to it; because father has been walking about with a loaded gun at
night."
