'“I am sorry – I am really – I did not – understand that a Sheik might feel like that about me – I only wanted – help.”
“And you really imagined that was what they would give you?” Tyrone Strome asked and now there was a note of amusement in his voice.
“I read in your books that they were – uncivilised, but I suppose because I am so – ignorant it meant nothing.”
“It is not so much a question of their being uncivilised,” he answered, “but the fact is that women have little value in their eyes except as creatures of pleasure. That women may have feelings or preferences as to who becomes their Master is a consideration that never arises.”
Nevada did not reply.'

Citaten
- fatimahj07citeerde uit6 jaar geleden“I was in Paris last night,” Tyrone Strome said. “When I arrived at the Ritz, I found three friends I have known for a long time who were just going off to Africa on a big game safari. They asked me to join them as there had originally been four in the party, but someone had dropped out.”
He realised that his nephew was attending to him as he went on, “They intend not only to shoot, but also to explore parts of Central Africa about which very little is known.”
