"I was blind, unforgivingly jealous of what had happened to him. The fact that I took it as a matter of course did not alter that any. I certainly did hate him."

I hate that man. How did I not know there was more to their relationship than what meets the eye. I didn’t know Cohn would be that desperate to go to Brett. There is really only one thing that makes us different and it’s my injury. He is as less of a man as I am because he is a coward. He couldn’t stomach the gore that occurred at the bullfight. Also, when he thought I was insulting him when I said Brett is committed to two loveless marriages and then I gave him a half-hearted apology, that coward was glad to sit down and retreat from the argument. Cohn is so pathetic, winning a bet with inside knowledge and excusing me from paying the bet, he is less of a man and does not deserve to be my enemy.
