Kindle Notes & Highlights
“You shall not put me in the wrong, young lady,” said Mr. Stryver; “I’ll do that for you.”
If your sagacity, knowledge, and experience, could put me on the right track, I might be able to do so much; unenlightened and undirected, I can do so little. Pray discuss it with me; pray enable me to see it a little more clearly, and teach me how to be a little more useful.”
“Upon my life,” said Carton, smiling, “I find that easier to comprehend in my own mind, than to convey to yours. However, let me try.
“I know something of human nature, and I tell you that you’ll never find a fellow like this fellow, trusting himself to the mercies of such precious PROTEGES. No, gentlemen; he’ll always show ’em a clean pair of heels very early in the scuffle, and sneak away.”
Absolutely love this and am actively seeking a way to work it into my day to day.
