The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from In the Cage by Henry James: This was a picture that could make a clergyman's widow not
imperceptibly gasp; it was in intention moreover something of a
retort to the thousand tulips. "Their vices? Have they got
vices?"
Our young critic even more overtly stared then with a touch of
contempt in her amusement: "Haven't you found THAT out?" The
homes of luxury then hadn't so much to give. "I find out
everything."
Mrs. Jordan, at bottom a very meek person, was visibly struck. "I
see. You do 'have' them."
"Oh I don't care! Much good it does me!"
