Pip, to his friend Herbert:
"I know that Fortune alone has raised me, that is being very lucky. And yet, when I think of Estella--then, my dear Herbert, I cannot tell you how dependent and uncertain I feel. I may still say that on the constancy of one person (naming no person) all my expectations depend. And at the best, how indefinite and unsatisfactory, only to know so vaguely what they are!"
