The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Rescue by Joseph Conrad: "I have been lately exhorted to patience," she said in the same
easy tone. "I can wait and I imagine I shall have to wait till
the morning."
"It can't be very late yet," he said. "Time with us has been
standing still for ever so long. And yet this may be the hour of
fate."
"Is this the feeling you have at this particular moment?"
"I have had that feeling for a considerable number of moments
already. At first it was exciting. Now I am only moderately
anxious. I have employed my time in going over all my past life."
"Can one really do that?"
