To-day, well, I'm half glad and I'm half sorry that they're not here.

If they walked into this office now I'd swallow a bean as quickly as I could, but I tell you frankly, Mr.Waddington, that at the present moment it seems entirely reasonable to me.

Money, after all, is worth having, isn't it ?--a nice comfortable sum so that one could sit back and just have a good time.
Don't stare at me like that.

Of course, I'm half ashamed of what I'm saying.

There's the other part pulling and tugging away all the time makes me feel inclined to kick myself, but I can't help it.
