The Sound and the Fury, 263 (Event)

After Caroline went upstairs for the evening, Jason finished his cigar. He heard Caroline say good night to Quentin. When he went up stairs, he saw the light on in Quentin's room, but he could not hear a sound. He said, "she studied quiet." Jason goes to his room and counts the money he hid in a box.

Jason dreams of making a killing in the stock market, and says, after that "they can bring all Beale Street and bedlam in here and two of them can sleep in my bed..."
