On one occasion, on describing to him a terrible family tragedy of which I had been a witness, Conrad became visibly ill-humored and at last cried out with exasperation: “Nothing of that kind has ever come my way! I have spent my life knocking about on ships, only getting ashore between voyages. I know nothing. Nothing except from the outside. I have to guess at everything” (4).
– From Gerard Jean-Aubry’s life of Joseph Conrad
