Daily Dose

From Wolf Hall, by Hilary Mantel

HE SAYS

"'He says your antecedents are obscure, your youth reckless and wild, that you are a heretic of long standing, a disgrace to the office of councillor; but personally, he finds you a man of good cheer, liberal, openhanded, gracious...'
'I knew he liked me. I should ask him for a job.'"

From Part 4, Chapter II
