Daily Dose

From Roderick Hudson, by Henry James

ROME

"It was a large, vague, idle, half profitless emotion, of which perhaps the most pertinent thing that may be said is that it brought with it a sort of relaxed acceptance of the present, the actual, the sensuous -- of life on the terms of the moment."

From Chapter 9
