Bleak House

CHAPTER XV
36/42

I mustn't look to individuals.

It's the system.

I mustn't go into court and say, 'My Lord, I beg to know this from you--is this right or wrong?
Have you the face to tell me I have received justice and therefore am dismissed ?' My Lord knows nothing of it.

He sits there to administer the system.

I mustn't go to Mr.Tulkinghorn, the solicitor in Lincoln's Inn Fields, and say to him when he makes me furious by being so cool and satisfied--as they all do, for I know they gain by it while I lose, don't I ?--I mustn't say to him, 'I will have something out of some one for my ruin, by fair means or foul!' HE is not responsible.
