At bottom remorse is only the effect of a certain way of looking at one’s self in a mirror

From Italo Svevo’s Novella del Buon Vecchio e della Bella Fanciulla, translated as The Nice Old Man and the Pretty Girl in the Melville House Art of the Novella series.

At bottom remorse is only the effect of a certain way of looking at one’s self in a mirror.

In fondo il rimorso non è altro che il risultato di un dato modo di guardarsi in uno specchio.
