"... the only way in which Mr.
Brooke
could be coerced into thinking of the right arguments at the right time was to be well plied with them till they took up all the room in his brain. But here there was the difficulty of finding room, so many things having been taken in beforehand. Mr.
Brooke
himself observed that his ideas stood rather in his way when he was speaking."
-George Eliot
