For faith--without it--has no sense; +And love to wind of doubt and tremor sways; +And life for ever quaking marsh must tread. + +Laws give it not; before it prayer will blush; +Hope has it not; nor pride of being true; +'Tis the mysterious soul which never yields, +But hales us on and on to breast the rush +Of all the fortunes we shall happen through. +And when Death calls across his shadowy fields-- +Dying, it answers: "Here! I am not dead!" + + + + + SOME FAVORITE PASSAGES + + +The simple truth, which underlies the whole story, that where sex +attraction is utterly and definitely lacking in one partner to a union, +no amount of pity, or reason, or duty, or what not, can overcome a +repulsion implicit in Nature. + +The tragedy of whose life is the very simple, uncontrollable tragedy of +being unlovable, without quite a thick enough skin to be thoroughly +unconscious of the fact. Not even Fleur loves Soames as he feels he +ought to be loved. But in pitying Soames, readers incline, perhaps, to +animus against Irene: After all, they think, he wasn't a bad fellow, it +wasn't his fault; she ought to have forgiven him, and so on! + +"Let the dead Past bury its dead" would be a better saying if the Past +ever died. The persistence of the Past is one of those tragi-comic +blessings which each new age denies, coming cocksure on to the stage to +mouth its claim to a perfect novelty. + +The figure of Irene, never, as the reader may possibly have observed, +present, except through the senses of other characters, is a concretion +of disturbing Beauty impinging on a possessive world. + +She turned back into the drawing-room; but in a minute came out, and +stood as if listening. Then she came stealing up the stairs, with a +kitten in her arms. He could see her face bent over the little beast, +which was purring against her neck. Why couldn't she look at him like +that? + +But though the impingement of Beauty and the claims of Freedom on a +possessive world are the main prepossessions of the Forsyte Saga, it +cannot be absolved from the charge of embalming the upper-middle class. + +When a Forsyte was engaged, married, or born, the Forsytes were present; +when a Forsyte died--but no Forsyte had as yet died; they did not die; +death being contrary to their principles, they took precautions against +it, the instinctive precautions of highly vitalized persons who resent +encroachments on their property. + +"It's my opinion," he said unexpectedly, "that it's just as well as it +is." + +The eldest by some years of all the Forsytes, she held a peculiar +position amongst them. Opportunists and egotists one and all--though +not, indeed, more so than their neighbours--they quailed before her +incorruptible figure, and, when opportunities were too strong, what could +they do but avoid her! + +"I'm bad," he said, pouting--"been bad all the week; don't sleep at +night. The doctor can't tell why. He's a clever fellow, or I shouldn't +have him, but I get nothing out of him but bills." + +There was little sentimentality about the Forsytes. In that great +London, which they had conquered and become merged in, what time had they +to be sentimental? + +A moment passed, and young Jolyon, turning on his heel, marched out at +the door. He could hardly see; his smile quavered. Never in all the +fifteen years since he had first found out that life was no simple +business, had he found it so singularly complicated. + +As in all self-respecting families, an emporium had been established +where family secrets were bartered, and family stock priced. It was +known on Forsyte 'Change that Irene regretted her marriage. Her regret +was disapproved of. She ought to have known her own mind; no dependable +woman made these mistakes. + +Out of his other property, out of all the things he had collected, his +silver, his pictures, his houses, his investments, he got a secret and +intimate feeling; out of her he got none. + +Of all those whom this strange rumour about Bosinney and Mrs. Soames +reached, James was the most affected. He had long forgotten how he had +hovered, lanky and pale, in side whiskers of chestnut hue, round Emily, +in the days of his own courtship. He had long forgotten the small house +in the purlieus of Mayfair, where he had spent the early days of his +married life, or rather, he had long forgotten the early days, not the +small house,--a Forsyte never forgot a house--he had afterwards sold it +at a clear profit of four hundred pounds. + +And those countless Forsytes, who, in the course of innumerable +transactions concerned with property of all sorts (from wives to +water rights).... + +"I now move, 'That the report and accounts for the year 1886 be received +and adopted.' You second that? Those in favour signify the same in the +usual way. Contrary--no. Carried. The next business, gentlemen...." +Soames smiled. Certainly Uncle Jolyon had a way with him! + +Forces regardless of family or class or custom were beating down his +guard; impending events over which he had no control threw their shadows +on his head. The irritation of one accustomed to have his way was, +roused against he knew not what. + +"We are, of course, all of us the slaves of property, and I admit that +it's a question of degree, but what I call a 'Forsyte' is a man who is +decidedly more than less a slave of property. He knows a good thing, he +knows a safe thing, and his grip on property--it doesn't matter whether +it be wives, houses, money, or reputation--is his hall-mark."--"Ah!" +murmured Bosinney. "You should patent the word."--"I should like," said +young Jolyon, "to lecture on it: 'Properties and quality of a Forsyte': +This little animal, disturbed by the ridicule of his own sort, is +unaffected in his motions by the laughter of strange creatures (you or +I). Hereditarily disposed to myopia, he recognises only the persons of +his own species, amongst which he passes an existence of competitive +tranquillity." + +"My people," replied young Jolyon, "are not very extreme, and they have +their own private peculiarities, like every other family, but they +possess in a remarkable degree those two qualities which are the real +tests of a Forsyte--the power of never being able to give yourself up to +anything soul and body, and the 'sense of property'." + +An unhappy marriage! No ill-treatment--only that indefinable malaise, +that terrible blight which killed all sweetness under Heaven; and so from +day to day, from night to night, from week to week, from year to year, +till death should end it. + +The more I see of people the more I am convinced that they are never good +or bad--merely comic, or pathetic. You probably don't agree with me!' + +"Don't touch me!" she cried. He caught her wrist; she wrenched it away. +"And where may you have been?" he asked. "In heaven--out of this house!" +With those words she fled upstairs. + +It seemed to young Jolyon that he could hear her saying: "But, darling, +it would ruin you!" For he himself had experienced to the full the +gnawing fear at the bottom of each woman's heart that she is a drag on +the man she loves. + +She had come back like an animal wounded to death, not knowing +where to turn, not knowing what she was doing. + +"What do you mean by God?" he said; "there are two irreconcilable ideas +of God. There's the Unknowable Creative Principle--one believes in That. +And there's the Sum of altruism in man naturally one believes in That." + +She was such a decided mortal; knew her own mind so terribly well; wanted +things so inexorably until she got them--and then, indeed, often dropped +them like a hot potato. Her mother had been like that, whence had come +all those tears. Not that his incompatibility with his daughter was +anything like what it had been with the first Mrs. Young Jolyon. +One could be amused where a daughter was concerned; in a wife's case +one could not be amused. + +"Thank you for that good lie." + +Love has no age, no limit; and no death. + +Did Nature permit a Forsyte not to make a slave of what he adored? Could +beauty be confided to him? Or should she not be just a visitor, coming +when she would, possessed for moments which passed, to return only at her +own choosing? 'We are a breed of spoilers!' thought Jolyon, 'close and +greedy; the bloom of life is not safe with us. Let her come to me as she +will, when she will, not at all if she will not. Let me be just her +stand-by, her perching-place; never-never her cage!' + +....causing the animal to wake and attack his fleas; for though he was +supposed to have none, nothing could persuade him of the fact. + +"It's always worth while before you do anything to consider whether it's +going to hurt another person more than is absolutely necessary." + + + + + +EXCERPTS FROM THE FORSYTE SAGA + +A thing slipped between him and all previous knowledge +Afraid of being afraid +Afraid to show emotion before his son +Always wanted more than he could have +Aromatic spirituality +As she will, when she will, not at all if she will not +Attack his fleas; for though he was supposed to have none +Avoided expression of all unfashionable emotion +Back of beauty was harmony +Back of harmony was--union +Beauty is the devil, when you're sensitive to it! +Blessed capacity of living again in the young +But it tired him and he was glad to sit down +But the thistledown was still as death +By the cigars they smoke, and the composers they love +Change--for there never was any--always upset her very much +Charm; and the quieter it was, the more he liked it +Compassion was checked by the tone of that close voice +Conceived for that law a bitter distaste +Conscious beauty +Detached and brotherly attitude towards his own son +Did not mean to try and get out of it by vulgar explanation +Did not want to be told of an infirmity +Dislike of humbug +Dogs: with rudiments of altruism and a sense of God +Don't care whether we're right or wrong +Don't hurt others more than is absolutely necessary +Early morning does not mince words +Era which had canonised hypocrisy +Evening not conspicuous for open-heartedness +Everything in life he wanted--except a little more breath +Fatigued by the insensitive, he avoided fatiguing others +Felt nearly young +Forgiven me; but she could never forget +Forsytes always bat +Free will was the strength of any tie, and not its weakness +Get something out of everything you do +Greater expense can be incurred for less result than anywhere +Hard-mouthed women who laid down the law +He could not plead with her; even an old man has his dignity +He saw himself reflected: An old-looking chap +Health--He did not want it at such cost +Horses were very uncertain +I have come to an end; if you want me, here I am +I never stop anyone from doing anything +I shan't marry a good man, Auntie, they're so dull! +If not her lover in deed he was in desire +Importance of mundane matters became increasingly grave +Intolerable to be squeezed out slowly, without a say yourself +Ironical, which is fatal to expansiveness +Ironically mistrustful +Is anything more pathetic than the faith of the young? +It was their great distraction: To wait! +Know how not to grasp and destroy! +Law takes a low view of human nature +Let her come to me as she will, when she will +Little notion of how to butter her bread +Living on his capital +Longing to escape in generalities beset him +Love has no age, no limit; and no death +Man had money, he was free in law and fact +Ministered to his daughter's love of domination +More spiritual enjoyment of his coffee and cigar +Never give himself away +Never seemed to have occasion for verbal confidences +Never since had any real regard for conventional morality +Never to see yourself as others see you +No money!

Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. |
