Can you tell me a paragraph near the beginning of “Heart of Darkness” that is similar to one near the end of the book?

I need to find a paragraph near the beginning of the book and one near the end of the book and explain how they compare, contrast, or both. This is a homework assignment, so I don’t expect you to do all the work for me. Yet if you could help by pointing me in the right direction of two paragraphs that compare/contrast then I could do the rest fine. It’s just finding them that is hard for me. I don’t have the book and the online ones I find difficult to read. The paragraph in the begging of the book does not have to be in the first chapter, just near the begging of the story. Likewise the paragraph near the end of the book does not have to bee at the very end. Also if need be I can do more than one paragraph. For example two paragraphs in ascending order from the beginning of the book and two paragraphs in ascending order near the end.
Thank you.
