John Fowles Quote

Knowledge of my atrocious selfishness, settled on me. All those bitter home truths she had flung at me, right from the beginning…and still loved me; was so blind that she still loved me. One day she had said: (and she had not meant make love to me) and I took it as chicanery, another emotional blackmail, to make me feel essential and so give me a sense of responsibility towards her.
