Quotation from: Great Expectations

Written by: Charles Dickens


"Do you take tea, or coffee, Mr. Gargery?" asked Herbert, who always
presided of a morning.


"Thankee, Sir," said Joe, stiff from head to foot, "I'll take
whichever is most agreeable to yourself."


"What do you say to coffee?"


"Thankee, Sir," returned Joe, evidently dispirited by the proposal,
"since you are so kind as make chice of coffee, I will not run
contrairy to your own opinions. But don't you never find it a
little 'eating?"
