From self-approval seek applause: What ken not men thou kennest thou! Spurn every idol others raise: Before thine own ideal bow." He met the dark eyes of Beatrice. "You care for that?"
My book agency was undertaken for the sake of travel, of learning something, not only of the land we live in, but of its people and homes. If I had gone from house to house and with malice aforethought begged an outright gift of a sum equal to my commission on each book, I should have felt more self-approval than in asking people to buy what I had not the slightest reason to suppose they wanted.

If I turn him away, the chances are he will fall in with some less indulgent employer, and then he will be rudely treated, and perhaps driven forth miserably to starve. Yes. Here I can cheaply purchase a delicious self-approval.
