| | The Moon and Sixpence (8th Dec 22 at 2:04am UTC) | | He was as cool as a cucumber, and his eyes were always full of laughter, as if I were saying something stupid. I paused for a moment to consider what to say next. But this time he spoke first. Why doesn't May remarry? She is not old, and there is something attractive about her. I can also recommend that she is a good wife. If she wants to divorce me, I can give her the excuse she needs. Now it's my turn to laugh. He's very cunning, but he can't hide it from anyone. That's his real purpose. For some reason he had to conceal his elopement with another woman, and he took every precaution to conceal her whereabouts. I said firmly: Your wife says she won't divorce you by any means. She has made up her mind. I advise you to give up this heart. He stared at me in great surprise,custom cosmetic packing, obviously not pretending. The smile disappeared from the corners of his mouth, and he said solemnly: But, dear friend,pump tube, I don't care what she does. I don't care whether she divorces me or not. I laughed. Oh, come on! Don't take us for such fools. We happen to know that you left with the same woman. He froze for a moment, but immediately burst out laughing. He laughed so loudly that even the people sitting next to us turned their heads curiously, and even a few people laughed. I don't see what's so funny about that. "Poor May," he said with a smile. Then his face changed into a contemptuous look. Women's brains are so pitiful! Love. They only know love. They think that if a man leaves them, it's because he has a new favorite. Do you think I'm such a fool as to do again what I've already done for a woman? "You mean you didn't leave your wife because of another woman?" "Of course not." "Do you swear?" I don't know why I asked him to. I asked this sentence without thinking at all. I swear. "Then why did you leave her?" "I want to paint." I stared at him for a long time. I don't understand at all. I think the man must be crazy. The reader should remember that I was very young at the time, metal cosmetic tubes ,plastic laminated tube, and I saw him as a middle-aged man. I remember nothing but my own surprise. But you are forty. "That's why I thought it would be too late if I didn't start now." "Have you ever painted in the past?" When I was young, I wanted to be a painter, but my father told me to go into business because he didn't think I could make money by studying art. A year ago, I started painting a little. I've been taking night classes for the last year. "Mrs. Strickland thought you were taking lessons when you were playing bridge at the club?" "Yes." "Why didn't you tell her?" "I think it's better not to let her know." "Can you draw?" "Not yet.". But I can learn it in the future. That's why I came to Paris. I don't get what I ask for in London. Maybe I'll get it here. Do you think a man of your age can do well when he begins to learn painting? Most people begin to learn at the age of eighteen. "If I had learned at eighteen, I would have learned faster than I do now." "Why do you think you still have some talent for painting?" He didn't answer my question right away. His eyes rested on the passing crowd, but I don't think he saw anything. In the end, his answer to me was no answer at all. I have to paint. "Are you taking a chance in doing so?" Then he turned his eyes to me. There was a strange look in his eyes that made me feel uncomfortable. How old are you? Twenty-three years old? I don't think his question has anything to do with what we are talking about. If I wanted to take a chance and do something, it was very natural; but his youth was long gone, and he was a respectable and important stockbroker, with a wife and two children.
The path that was natural to me became absurd to him. But I still want to try to be fair to him. Of course, maybe a miracle will happen, and you may become a great painter. But you have to admit, the chances are slim. If at the end of the day you have to admit that you have made a mess of things, you will regret it. "I must paint," he repeated. If you can only be a third-rate painter at best, do you still think it's worth throwing everything away? At any rate, in all other walks of life, it doesn't matter much if you're not outstanding; as long as you can get by, you can live comfortably; but being an artist is quite another thing. "What a ***ing fool you are." He said I don't know why you say that,eye cream packaging tube, unless I'm doing something stupid to say the most obvious thing like that. I told you I had to paint. I can't help myself. If a man falls into the water, it doesn't matter whether he swims well or not, he has to struggle out or drown. 。 emptycosmetictubes.com | |
