[Roderick Hudson by Henry James]@TWC D-Link bookRoderick Hudson CHAPTER X 49/105
I should like to have a friendship with her; I have never had one; they must be very delightful. But I shan't have one now, either--not if she can help it! Ask her what she thinks of me; see what she will say.
I don't want to know; keep it to yourself.
It 's too sad.
So we go through life.
It 's fatality--that 's what they call it, is n't it? We please the people we don't care for, we displease those we do! But I appreciate her, I do her justice; that 's the more important thing.
