Kindle Notes & Highlights
The world would have been a much more interesting place if everyone was given a chance to meet their ancestors at least for an hour in their lifetime.

perplexed by the way the upper classes speak. They have a circuitous way of expressing themselves. He can never tell whether he is being genuinely praised or subtly mocked.
