I am a lonely man, Ivan Andreievitch, since the death of my wife, and to be with any one who knew her is a great happiness ... yes, a great happiness." "And Semyonov?" I asked. "I have nothing to say against Alexei Petrovitch," he answered stiffly.
Only on one occasion Pavel Petrovitch fell into a controversy with the nihilist on the subject of the question then much discussed of the rights of the nobles of the Baltic province; but suddenly he stopped of his own accord, remarking with chilly politeness, 'However, we cannot understand one another; I, at least, have not the honour of understanding you. 'I should think not! cried Bazarov.
Anne which he wore over a cravat of the colour of a raven's wing, began to be familiar to all the pale and listless young men who hang morosely about the card-tables while dancing is going on. Pavel Petrovitch knew how to gain a footing in society; he spoke little, but from old habit, condescendingly though, of course, not when he was talking to persons of a higher rank than his own.
The company, composed of officers and nondescripts, pleased us no better than the dinner, so we decided to eat elsewhere on the morrow. The governor's secretary came in to arrange for an interview with his chief yet another Petrovitch and brother to the governor of Scutari.
It was only a very little the talk of a drunken man, scarcely disconnected at all, but every now and again running into sudden little wildnesses and extravagances. I cannot remember nearly all that he said. He came suddenly, as I expected him to do, to the subject of Semyonov. "You know of course that Alexei Petrovitch is living with us now?" "Yes. I know that."
"I take a ticket at the station, I give the man three roubles, and I keep fancying they are false. And I am frightened. I must be ill." "There's no denying it, we are all in God's hands.... Oh dear, dear..." said Varvara, and she shook her head. "You ought to think about this, Grigory Petrovitch: you never know, anything may happen, you are not a young man.
Sergei Petrovitch has had no education: of course he does not speak French, still, say what you like, he is an agreeable man." "Yes, he is always ready to kiss your hands. He does not speak French that's no great loss. I am not over strong in the French lingo myself. It would be better if he could not speak at all; he would not tell lies then.
"Not to be despised, by any means," repeated Porphyrius Petrovitch, whose mind seemed to be preoccupied with something else "not to be despised!" he continued in a very loud tone of voice, and drawing himself up close to Raskolnikoff, whom he stared out of countenance.
After dinner the director lay on the sofa in his study and began reading the letters and newspapers he had received. "Dear Fyodor Petrovitch," wrote the wife of the Mayor of the town. "You once said that I knew the human heart and understood people. Now you have an opportunity of verifying this in practice.
You must tell everyone you have bought it. . . . Go away, I entreat you." "Very good, I will go. I understand." "Let us go to a notary . . . at once," said Groholsky, greatly cheered, and he went to order the carriage. On the following evening, when Liza was sitting on the garden seat where her rendezvous with Ivan Petrovitch usually took place, Groholsky went quietly to her.
