You know i don't like you, right?" "You've made that very clear, yes." said Magwich. "Well" Charles continued, "whenever we've met, you've demonstrated all the qualities i don't want to have. And I try to better myself so I don't become like you. So in a way..." "My bad example is making you a better person?" finished Magwich. "something like that." said Charles.
