Estella
“Ou então”, disse Estella, “para dar um exemplo mais apropriado, se a senhora lhe houvesse ensinado, desde que ela começou a entender as coisas, com toda a energia e vigor, que existia, sim, a luz do dia, mas que era uma coisa inimiga e destrutiva, pois essa luz causara a sua ruína e também causaria a dela, se ela não se cuidasse; se a senhora tivesse agido assim, e então, por...
