Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bleak House, Vol. 2 of 4 Richard very often came to see us while we re mained in London (though he soon failed in his letter writing), and with his quick abilities, his good spirits. His good temper, his gaiety and freshness, was always delightful. But, though I liked him more and more, the better I knew him, 'i still felt more and more how much it was to be regretted that he had been educated in no habits of application and concentration. The sys tem which had addressed him in exactly the same manner as it had addressed hundreds of other boys, all varying in character and capacity, had enabled him to dash through his tasks, always with fair credit, and often with distinction; but in a fitful, dazzling way that had confirmed his reliance on those very qualities in himself, which it had been most desirable to direct and train. They were great qualities, without which no high place can be meritoriously won; but, like fire and water, though excellent servants, they were very bad masters. If they had been under Richard's direc tion, they would have been his friends; but, Richard being under their direction, they became his enemies.
