Dreaded it, too, that someone else should say it, their saying making it true, the truth true, unalterable. He thought pf that phrase from Wilde, What one had done in the secret chamber one has some day to cry on the housetop. Wilde had meant in confession. Was it conceivable to cry out with pride? When Kettle had asked was there a flaw in his character, he had replied that he did not think it a flaw."
Quite a lengthy quote, and not even the one I wanted to cite, but since I couldn't find the other..
Finished yesterday. And now..?
