Important Powerful Quotations:
“Afterward, John remembered that first night as a daze of many colours, of quick sensory impressions, of music soft as a voice in love, and of the beauty of things, lights and shadows, and motions and faces. There was a white-haired man who stood to drink many−hued cordials from a crystal thimble set on a golden stem. There was a girl with a flowering face, dressed like Titania with braided sapphires in her hair.”(P25, Pra3)
This quotation emphasizes Percy’s family, what his house likes, what status is he, what reputation he gains. Everything shows that he lives an extreme luxury life. At the same time, it describes the social condition which everyone is admiring money.
