Important quotes from Heart of Darkness

1. "There was nothing either above or below him, and I knew it.  He had kicked himself loose of the earth.  Confound the man! he had kicked the very earth to pieces.  He was alone, and I before him did not know whether I stood on the ground or floated in the air."  (83)

2. "The horror!  The horror!" (86)

3. "I was within a hair's- breadth of the last opportunity for pronouncement, and I found with humiliation that probably I would have nothing to say."  (87)

  1. Very important choices! #1 and #3 are really crucial, I think. We should discuss them this week.
