Heart of Darkness Quotes by Joseph Conrad

"We live, as we dream--alone." ~ Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad In the immutability of their surroundings the foreign shores, the foreign faces, the changing immensity of life, glide past, veiled not by a sense of mystery but by a slightly disdainful ignorance; for there is nothing mysterious to a seaman unless it be the sea itself, which is the mistress of his existence and as inscrutable as Destiny. ~ Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad "The conquest of the earth, which mostly means the taking it away from those who have a different complexion or slightly flatter noses than ourselves, is not a pretty thing when you look into it too much." ~ Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad He was obeyed, yet he inspired neither love nor fear, nor even respect. He inspired uneasiness. That was it! ~ Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad
