“... that distant look characteristic of people who do not wish to be agreeable...”

“The invisible people agreed about everything. Indeed most of their remarks were the sort it would not be easy to disagree with: "What I always say is, when a chap's hungry, he likes some victuals," or "Getting dark now; always does at night," or even "Ah, you've come over the water. Powerful wet stuff, ain't it?”

“I sat with my hands in my lap ready to agree with what anybody said.”
― Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

“But will they make themselves agreeable to me? That's what I like people to do. I don't hesitate to say so, because I always appreciate it.”

“This Higher Power was the least offensive and most inclusive belief system I could find. I liked the fact that people found it agreeable because that meant they would also likely find me agreeable. My world was still about me, everything still revolved around me, what I thought about myself, and what I could get others to think about me. I was always changing in order to fit in, and after a while, I realized that my Higher Power was doing the same thing.”
― Michael J Heil, Pursued: God’s relentless pursuit and a drug addict’s journey to finding purpose

“I should be a fool to take offence at any want of confidence”
― H G Wells, The Island of Doctor Moreau
