Winston Graham Quote: “Of course he’ll bring no money. Nor never will. He’s not the type to – accumulate. But it’s a good name to have. And he’s becoming a personality in the county. One never knows quite why this happens, eh? Not so much what a man does. More a matter of character.”
Winston Graham Quote: “Instead, the room, which had seen her grow to maturity, would see her dry up and fade. The gilt mirror in the corner would bear its dispassionate testimony. All the ornaments and furnishings would be her companions through the years to come. And she realized that she would come to hate them, if she didn’t already hate them, as one hates the witnesses of one’s humiliation and futility.”
Winston Graham Quote: “An hour before dawn they went down to the cove, following the bubble of the stream and the descending combe, with a glowworm here and there green-lit like a jewel in the dark.”
Winston Graham Quote: “Their lives had been the tragedy of one woman who couldn’t make up her mind.”
Winston Graham Quote: “I said to myself, ‘He has done this and he has paid for it. Isn’t that enough? Is a man to be condemned forever? Why do I go to church and repeat the Lord’s Prayer if I don’t hold to it, if there is no forgiveness? Is our own behavior higher than the founder of Christianity, that we should set a higher standard for others?”
Winston Graham Quote: “At that, his smile faded and he kissed her. “Ross,” she said. “Dear Ross.” “I love you,” he said, “and am your servant. Demelza, look at me. If I’ve done wrong in the past, give me leave to make amends.” So he found that what he had half despised was not despicable, that what had been for him the satisfaction of an appetite, a pleasant but commonplace adventure in disappointment, owned wayward and elusive depths he had not known before, and carried the knowledge of beauty in its heart.”
Winston Graham Quote: “He tried to remember her as a thin little urchin trailing across the fields with Garrick behind her. But that was no use at all. The urchin was gone forever. It was not beauty she had grown overnight but the appeal of youth, which was beauty in its own right.”
Winston Graham Quote: “Give me some surety if you want to continue. It is not late yet.” Ross offered his gold watch, which had belonged to his father and which he seldom wore.”
Winston Graham Quote: “Like all human beings she could not refrain from idly comparing what she had with what she might have had.”
Winston Graham Quote: “At times I have discovered a new lowness of spirit, a new need to revolt, to kick against the constraints that a civilized life tries to impose.” He stopped and regarded her. “Because what is civilized life but an imposition of unreal standards upon flawed and defective human beings by other human beings no less flawed and defective?”
Winston Graham Quote: “She added, “I’ve only followed the devices and desires of my own heart.” Verity patted her hand. “That’s what we love you for.”
Winston Graham Quote: “The trouble with music was that in some way it was too nostalgic... every tune seemed to exist with its notes firmly rooted in an event or an emotion or a period of time.”
Winston Graham Quote: “The ribbon of milky mist still lay in the gully. It stretched down to the sea, and there were patches across the sand hills like steam from a kettle.”
