Quote #10
"His life had begun in sacrifice, in enthusiasm for generous ideas; he had travelled very far, on various ways, on strange paths, and whatever he followed it had been without faltering, and therefore without shame and without regret." (19.36)
Jim's whole adult life revolved around one shameful episode, but Marlow seems to think that his moral core ultimately absolves him from shame. As long as he keeps up the good deeds, he just might be able to live down the Patna scandal.
Quote #11
"'I whom you have tried and found always true ask you to let them go.' He turned to Doramin. The old Nakhoda made no movement. 'Then,' said Jim, 'call in Dain Waris, our son, my friend, for in this business I shall not lead.'" (42.9)
Jim really sticks by his guns here. His behavior stands out from the rest of the novel, where he often falters, hesitates and doubts himself. Here, Jim has a very clear sense of what's right and what he should do.
