The Turn of the Screw - Henry James

This quote was added by malevolarky
He almost smiled at me in the desolation of his surrender, which was indeed practically, by this time, so complete that I ought to have left it there. But I was infatuated - I was blind with victory, though even then the very effect that was to have brought him so much nearer was already that of added separation.
