"Don't suppose that I think you are right, Tom, or that I bow to your will. I despise the feelings you have shown in speaking to philip; I detest your insulting,unmanly allusions to his deformity. You have been reproaching other people all your life; you have been always sure you yourself are right. It is because you have not a mind large enough to see that there is anything better than your own conduct and your own petty aims."
