Wilkie Collins Quotes

I Paid The Cabman Exactly His Fare. He Received It With An Oath; Upon Which I Instantly Gave Him A Tract. If I Had Presented A Pistol At His Head, This Abandoned Wretch Could Hardly Have Exhibited Greater Consternation. He Jumped Up On His Box, And, With Profane Exclamations Of Dismay, Drove Off Furiously. Quite Useless, I Am Happy To Say! I Sowed The Good Seed, In Spite Of Him, By Throwing A Second Tract In At The Window Of The Cab.
