Which line from the text most clearly indicates the narrator wants to be seen as a victim of circumstance?

In this house I chanced to find a volume of the works of Cornelius Agrippa. I opened it with apathy;

A new light seemed to dawn upon my mind, and bounding with joy, I communicated my discovery to my father.

My father looked carelessly at the title page of my book and said, "Ah! Cornelius Agrippa! My dear Victor, do not waste your time upon this; it is sad trash."

It is even possible that the train of my ideas would never have received the fatal impulse that led to my ruin.
