Which passage?
Here is the passage
I hope you don't mind my telling you a great deal about Roberta. The more I observe her, the more I notice all sorts of things about her. For instance, she seems oddly anxious to make other people happy. Also, she has the power of silent sympathy. That sounds rather dull, I know, but it's not so dull as it sounds. It just means that she is able to know that you are unhappy, and to love you extra on that account, without bothering you by telling you all the time how sorry she is for you.
