“I might push it away, but I couldn’t really get rid of it; nor, on the whole, doubtless, did I want to, for to have in one’s life, year after year, a particular question or two that one couldn’t comfortably and imposingly make up one’s mind about was just the sort of thing to keep one from turning stupid.”
–From Henry James’s story, “Maud-Evelyn.”
