π Lord Jim
Quotes from this book
With the impetus of his rush the man drove straight on, his face suddenly gaping disfigured, with his hands open before him gropingly, as though blinded, and landed with terrific violence on his forehead, just short of Jimβs bare toes.
One voyage, I recollect, I tipped him a live sheep out of the remnant of my sea-stock: not that I wanted him to do anything for meβhe couldnβt, you knowβbut because his childlike belief in the sacred right to perquisites quite touched my heart.
