Answer 2

"He wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people—he wanted the glittering things themselves. Often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it—and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life indulges."

Those sentences foreshadow his possession with Judy. The sentences imply that he wanted things themselves and he liked the best of them.
