If there had but been a print a stain of dirt a cobweb, to fleck their unbroken ghastliness! They stared at me, like grim, impassive, featureless formless fiends; all the more dreadful for their sleek, hypocritic cleanliness purity as of a saint-inquisitor watching with spotless conscience the victim on the rack.
Charles Kingsley - Alton Locke, Tailor and Poet: An Autobiography
