| 1326 | Or against capitalist systems outside Russia?" |
| 1326 | THE COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP How is that will expressed? |
| 1326 | The Communists immediately asked"What struggle? |
| 1326 | The control of the working class as a formless chaotic mass? |
| 1326 | The more general answer to the question, What has become of the workmen? |

| 43426 | You have n''t forgotten, have you, Juhani,said Maja somewhat breathlessly as they stood together,"that they all can speak to- night?" |
| 43426 | You would n''t do that, would you? |

| 37947 | I again answered"No;"and he asked me, with great simplicity,"Cosa fatte? |
| 37947 | I answered"No;"and he continued,"Suonate?" |
| 37947 | It meant that it was needless to add an epitaph, for no man would ask, Who was Kosciusko? |
| 37947 | It might be asked, What have these men to fight for? |
| 37947 | Niente?" |

| 45167 | It did seem cruel to put heavy loads on such suffering creatures, but what else could be done? |
| 45167 | Now what do the facts say, even as Mr. Cobden himself has stated them? |
| 45167 | Or ought we to start by break of day with our whole baggage to Peking, and trust to arranging matters there? |
| 45167 | Or was he proud to show his friends that he had such distinguished guests in his tent? |
| 45167 | Ought we to wait till the morrow, and try ourselves to hire beasts of burden at Tung- chow, with this shaven head probably plotting against us? |
| 45167 | Then why do n''t they do it? |
| 45167 | This break- down of our mainstay was unfortunate, for as we could not get on with his assistance, how could we manage without it? |
| 45167 | Were we lamas, or Chara- chun? |
| 45167 | Why should not emancipated Russia issue forth from Europe and subjugate Asia? |
| 45167 | Would they sink or swim? |
| 45167 | You sternly order them to their work, but are met by the unanswerable question, how can they work without food? |
| 45167 | and if England were to lead the way in such schemes of aggrandisement, would the ambition of France stop short at islands? |
| 45167 | or to show us that Mongols bear no malice? |
| 20880 | Boys,she said to the men,"you know whose daughter I am?" |
| 20880 | Why did you bring out the holy eikon? |
| 20880 | Again, why did he not devote his time to war, as the other czars had done? |
| 20880 | And how many hearts were rent, when the news came of the dead, the wounded, and the missing? |
| 20880 | Could she allow the"peaceful"absorption of Korea, as that of Manchuria had been accomplished? |
| 20880 | Could such a being be intrusted with life and property? |
| 20880 | Does it not seem as if long billows of earth roll down toward the Arctic Ocean, where they rest benumbed by the eternal cold? |
| 20880 | Had Napoleon waited two hundred days instead of half that time, who knows that he might not yet have been the arbiter of Europe? |
| 20880 | Had he not struck at the very heart of the mysterious continent whence so much trouble and disgrace had come upon Russia? |
| 20880 | Hast thou not collected all the tribute?'' |
| 20880 | He had made a bargain with British merchants to import tobacco into Russia; what did the Russians want with this"sacrilegious smell?" |
| 20880 | How could the men- at- arms, that is the small nobility, defray their own expenses while serving, if their revenues failed from lack of labor? |
| 20880 | How did the Russians bear this blow? |
| 20880 | I have not spared, and I shall not spare, my own life for my country; do you think that I shall spare yours? |
| 20880 | It was a cause for complaint that Peter often wore clothes of a German fashion; was the Russian costume not good enough for him? |
| 20880 | Peter kept cool, and, smiling, asked them if they"had ever heard of a Czar of Russia who was drowned in the North Sea?" |
| 20880 | Russian writers state that his wife, Sophia, annoyed him by often repeating the interesting inquiry,"How long am I to be the slave of the Tartars?" |
| 20880 | She said that she did not wish any blood to be shed, and added:"I swear to die for you; will_ you_ swear to die for me?" |
| 20880 | She said to Osterman, one of her ministers:"Am I wrong? |
| 20880 | The Treaty of Peace was signed September 5, at Portsmouth, N. H. What will be the effect of the war upon the Russian people? |
| 20880 | The question never occurred to them: How shall we raise the peasant from his degradation? |
| 20880 | Then they sent deputies who said to him,''why dost thou come anew unto us? |
| 20880 | This is what the priests said of this vice:"My brethren, what is worse than drunkenness? |
| 20880 | Thousands of workmen died;--what did he care? |
| 20880 | Was it Alexander or his court and ministers who bore the responsibility for the suppressive means that were employed? |
| 20880 | Was it Muravieff''s duty to furnish those supplies? |
| 20880 | Was it belief in his star, or was it despair at the ruin of his prospects? |
| 20880 | Was it not to defile the image of man created by God?" |
| 20880 | What are you waiting for? |
| 20880 | Who can say how much influence this has exerted upon Russia''s conquests in Asia? |
| 20880 | Why did he waste thirty- five days in the charred capital? |
| 20880 | Why was the Russian fleet, numerically superior to that of Japan, divided? |
| 20880 | Why"All the Russias"? |
| 20880 | Why, then, should he pay for them? |
| 20880 | Will you live at peace with me? |
| 20880 | Would he not seize the opportunity to indulge in his favorite craving, and, having sold his property, swell the army of homeless vagabonds? |
| 20880 | she exclaimed,"the conditions sent to me at Mittau were not the will of the people?" |
| 36303 | ***** How far, however, can the Socialist policy of the working class advance in the economic environment of Russia? |
| 36303 | And why should one confiscate the land of the communities and the land of small private owners? |
| 36303 | Applied to Russia, is it true that the weakness of capitalistic liberalism means the weakness of the working class? |
| 36303 | Are we not warranted in our conclusion that the"man"will sooner gain political supremacy in Russia than his"master"? |
| 36303 | But how about Russia? |
| 36303 | But is it not possible that the peasants will remove the workingmen from their positions and take their place? |
| 36303 | But, a skeptic may ask, is there then any hope for a victorious revolution in Russia under these circumstances? |
| 36303 | Did he dream in those long hours of his journey, that some day the wave of the Revolution would bring him to the very top? |
| 36303 | For national defense or for revolutionary struggle? |
| 36303 | For the continuation of the war, for victory? |
| 36303 | For war or against war? |
| 36303 | How can we do it? |
| 36303 | How far, then, must the social differentiation have gone to warrant the assertion that the second prerequisite is an accomplished fact? |
| 36303 | In other words, what must be the numerical strength of the proletariat? |
| 36303 | Is he not also a stranger to those who applaud him and in whose name he speaks from this platform? |
| 36303 | Is it so? |
| 36303 | Is the half- paupered peasant a proletarian? |
| 36303 | Must it be one- half, two- thirds, or nine- tenths of the people? |
| 36303 | Or will the revolutionary enthusiasm of the people swing towards a more vigorous prosecution of the war? |
| 36303 | Shall the proletariat agree with the conception of"the defense of the Fatherland"? |
| 36303 | Should not the very fact of his imprisonment have convinced him that in drawing a picture of labor dictatorship he was only dreaming? |
| 36303 | This question will still remain: Who has the hegemony in the government and through it in the country? |
| 36303 | WAR OR PEACE? |
| 36303 | What are the requirements for this leadership? |
| 36303 | What enabled it in this short period to take an honorable place in the history of the Russian proletariat, in the history of the Russian Revolution? |
| 36303 | What is the cause of the war? |
| 36303 | What ought the revolutionary government to do? |
| 36303 | What ought to be the tactics of the working- class in war time? |
| 36303 | What was the result? |
| 36303 | What was the substance of this institution? |
| 36303 | Whom should we consider a proletarian? |
| 36303 | Why then have all attempts at organizing Socialist communities failed? |
| 36303 | Why was it so? |
| 36303 | Will it bring peace nearer? |
| 36303 | Would that be mere manoeuvers, and not a street revolution? |
| 36303 | Would that mean a series of exercises only, and not a decisive combat with the enemy forces? |
| 41751 | ''In God''s name, Efendi, what induced you to come to this fearful country, and to come to us too from that paradise on earth, from Stamboul?'' |

| 41751 | But why linger over Mazendran and all its beauties, rendered so familiar to us by the masterly sketches of Frazer, Conolly, and Burnes? |
| 41751 | He was right, thought I, for, in fact, what was I to do? |
| 41751 | How could it be otherwise in these countries, where there was positively not even a hope of seeing each other again? |
| 41751 | I doubt much whether, in these extreme sufferings, water would have been of service; but who was there to give it to him? |

| 41751 | What more can you say? |

| 41751 | What wilt thou then do?'' |

| 43513 | And how does Henryk find himself? |
| 43513 | And may I go now and tell Mademoiselle? |
| 43513 | And then the young sister Helena will find her young man? |
| 43513 | And what was my boy reading as I came in? |
| 43513 | And will you take us? |
| 43513 | But suppose Mademoiselle should become frightened and want to return? |
| 43513 | But what does it all mean? |
| 43513 | But what for? |
| 43513 | Do n''t you know that the lady of the manor is here? |
| 43513 | Do n''t you remember what you told me the day I came? 43513 Do you suppose mother will allow us to cast a wreath into the Vistula?" |
| 43513 | For what are they waiting, mother? |
| 43513 | May I? |
| 43513 | She is n''t fifteen yet, is she? |
| 43513 | What is it all about, mother? |
| 43513 | What secret? |
| 43513 | What''s that? |
| 43513 | When shall we start? |
| 43513 | Which shall we take? |
| 43513 | Why not? 43513 Will it come by the road?" |
| 43513 | Will you surely take me? |
| 43513 | You are nearly ready for the wedding day? |
| 43513 | You do n''t imagine you will be allowed to go in search of the wonderful fern, do you, Marya? |
| 43513 | You remember the story of the Princess Wanda, and how she threw herself into the Vistula in order to save her country from wars? |
| 43513 | You were married very young, were you not? |
| 43513 | You will be glad to have your own little home, Emilia? |
| 43513 | Any prospects of a husband yet?" |
| 43513 | But I wonder what keeps them?" |
| 43513 | But is it really true, mother?" |
| 43513 | But when one goes to visit_ her_, he cares not; he is only too proud to display his courage, for will not_ she_ love him the better for it? |
| 43513 | Gadenz?" |
| 43513 | I had planned to take the children to Cracow for St. John''s Night--""Oh, mother,"interrupted the young Marya,"will you?" |
| 43513 | May I?" |
| 43513 | Mrs. Ostrowska stroked one young girl gently under the chin, as she said:"This will be your last Christmas under the home- roof, Emilia?" |

| 43513 | Shall we take the pony cart?" |
| 43513 | The oldest brother thought he should, for was he not the eldest? |
| 43513 | Then he suddenly called out:"What will they look like, grandfather?" |
| 43513 | What cared they whether they were snow- bound or not, so long as they could make their music ring out over the clear, frosty air? |
| 43513 | What do you think?" |
| 43513 | What mattered anything that night, when all hearts were light, and youth was abroad? |
| 43513 | What mattered it that they were unknown to each other? |
| 43513 | Who can say but that they rather enjoyed the experience? |
| 43513 | Why should he have all the glory when they, too, had made the long journey as well as the eldest? |
| 60867 | ''Soldiers,''he said,''will you go with us; or stay and unite with those who have proved faithless to their sovereign?'' |
| 60867 | ''What does this mean, my dear comrades?'' |
| 60867 | ''Why,''would a Polish soldier say to the Russian,''why are we shedding each other''s blood? |
| 60867 | And how many of them have not been found under the banners of Dombrowski, in Italy, and under those of Kniaziewiez, upon the Danube? |
| 60867 | Are these complaints the only arms worthy of the Russian people? |
| 60867 | Are we not brethren?'' |
| 60867 | Are you here to shed the blood of your brethren? |
| 60867 | Can it be possible that the design of rendering a service to their country has been made for a moment a pretext for such conduct? |
| 60867 | Can we be surprised, then, at the state of the popular mind which ensued? |
| 60867 | Even if such apprehensions were well founded, are diplomatic formalities to be regarded, on an occasion like this? |
| 60867 | First, what was the object of commencing the attack? |
| 60867 | For, who accompanied him so faithfully in all his expeditions as the sons of Poland? |
| 60867 | General, have you forgotten how you were received at Warsaw, after your return from the campaign of Turkey? |
| 60867 | Have you forgotten the Russian tyranny? |
| 60867 | How could an expedition which demanded the very highest talents, and the most undoubted patriotism, have been confided to a man like him? |
| 60867 | How many more lives might he not still lose? |
| 60867 | If those conditions were compatible with justice and with the honor of the nation, why was all this secrecy necessary? |
| 60867 | Is this a course becoming a King? |
| 60867 | Secondly, what was, in regard to tactics, the cause of its cessation, and of that sudden retreat? |
| 60867 | The Russians, to whom the name of Dwernicki was a terror, would speak of him in the following manner:''What can we make of such a general? |
| 60867 | The partition of Poland has been denominated a crime by the unanimous voice of Europe, and who at this day will revoke such a decision? |
| 60867 | The patriots of Warsaw triumphed without chiefs and without law; yet with what crime can they be charged? |
| 60867 | The question presents itself to him,--what course is best to be taken? |
| 60867 | They used to express themselves in the following and similar terms:--''What is the constitution? |
| 60867 | Was it for this that we conciliated the Autocrat of the North on the Belgian question? |
| 60867 | Was not this inactivity an infallible evidence of weakness? |
| 60867 | What conditions could Nicholas propose to the Dictator, which the nation should not know of? |
| 60867 | What consolation could there be in the last agonies of suffering incurred in such a cause? |
| 60867 | What other recompense for all this? |
| 60867 | What reward awaits the Russian soldier? |
| 60867 | Who then would have equalled you? |
| 60867 | Who will venture to come forward as the champion against it? |
| 60867 | Why then all this delay? |
| 60867 | Why then was that river defended? |
| 60867 | what could we do? |
| 60867 | why all this misery? |
| 46407 | Are you mad,I replied;"how can I go with you? |
| 46407 | But how will you manage to live when you are with your relatives? |
| 46407 | But how? |
| 46407 | But in what should I have confided in you? |
| 46407 | But what on earth could you have found to love at our house? |
| 46407 | For why,as I said to myself,"was she placed with me if she was not worthy?" |
| 46407 | Have you made any nocturnal expeditions? |
| 46407 | Have you spoken on this subject to any one else? |
| 46407 | In what respect? |
| 46407 | Well,I said, in the innocence of my heart,"what harm is there in that? |
| 46407 | What is the matter? |
| 46407 | What will you say to her? |
| 46407 | Approaching me he said,"Have you seen how the Empress spoke to me?" |
| 46407 | But what did she do? |
| 46407 | Count Poniatowsky, when going out, always wore a wig of fair hair and a cloak, and to the question of the sentinels,"Who goes there?" |
| 46407 | Do you not remember that you have children?" |
| 46407 | Has any one spoken to her of them?" |
| 46407 | Have you found more crimes than criminals, or more criminals than crimes?" |
| 46407 | He therefore said,"Tell me, then; do you know anything on this point? |
| 46407 | He was so far thrown off his guard as to say to me,"But how then is it that the Empress has been impressed to the contrary?" |
| 46407 | Here she interrupted me by saying,"And why did you write this to him?" |
| 46407 | How was this alliance to be prevented? |
| 46407 | How, for instance, could you presume to send orders to Marshal Apraxine?" |
| 46407 | I added,"How do you know that my heart is not engaged elsewhere?" |
| 46407 | I asked what that channel was? |
| 46407 | I replied laughing,"what is it you say?" |
| 46407 | I replied,"I, madame? |
| 46407 | I said to her,"How is this, Madame Tchoglokoff?" |
| 46407 | In fact, how was it possible to arrive at any other conclusion? |
| 46407 | In the horse- guards an officer named Chitron(? |
| 46407 | My old surgeon Gyon, seeing these things, said to me,"What is the good of all this? |
| 46407 | Passing to the Memoirs themselves, what do we find? |
| 46407 | She then said to me,"But what excuse should I give to the public in justification of this step?" |
| 46407 | When he again returned to the subject, I asked him what it was he wanted of me? |
| 46407 | Who is it that gives you such bad advice? |
| 46407 | Who would have thought it? |
| 46407 | Would any one have believed it? |
| 46407 | and why?" |
| 46407 | madame,"I said,"how could your Majesty possibly suppose that I should be haughty to you? |
| 46407 | she said,"will you deny having written to him? |
| 46407 | what has happened to you?" |
| 23031 | And how air you going? |
| 23031 | And you are going to the front, old lady-- you, of all people in the world? |
| 23031 | But, Madame Seacole,( this in a very altered tone),"_ you''ll_ surely help me? |
| 23031 | Do you think I shall be of any use to you when I get there? |
| 23031 | I am yours, truly obliged,J. K., 18th R. S."Does n''t that read like a sick man''s letter, glad enough to welcome any woman''s face? |
| 23031 | I say, Mrs. Seacole, how''s that---- boy? |
| 23031 | Oh, Dr. Casey, how could you shoot the poor lad, and now call him bad names, as though he''d injured you? 23031 What am I to do? |
| 23031 | What can I do or say, Dr. Casey? 23031 Where air you going?" |
| 23031 | Why not, my sons?--won''t they be glad to have me there? |
| 23031 | Another equally terrible and lengthy siege of the north? |
| 23031 | As it was, he came forward, and shook hands very kindly, saying,"How do you do, ma''am? |
| 23031 | But what have I gained? |
| 23031 | But who, indeed, has not been kind to me? |
| 23031 | By what conveyance air you going?" |
| 23031 | Ca n''t I rig up a hut with the packing- cases, and sleep, if need be, on straw, like Margery Daw?" |
| 23031 | Come, Madame Seacole, you''ll never leave me to be murdered by these bloodthirsty savages?" |
| 23031 | Did these ladies shrink from accepting my aid because my blood flowed beneath a somewhat duskier skin than theirs? |
| 23031 | Her colour was grey; would not a thick coating of flour from my dredger make all right? |
| 23031 | How could it be otherwise? |
| 23031 | How was I to know when I brought them what camp- life was? |
| 23031 | I could give many other similar instances, but why should I sadden myself or my readers? |
| 23031 | I felt it to be so, for I never failed( although who was I, that I should preach?) |
| 23031 | I wonder if I can ever forget the scenes I witnessed there? |
| 23031 | In a few days the camp could find plenty to talk about in their novel position-- and what then? |
| 23031 | Is n''t there a something we can du for you, ma''am?" |
| 23031 | More fighting? |
| 23031 | Now, would all this have happened if I had returned to England a rich woman? |
| 23031 | Perhaps you''ll see them some day, and if the Russians should knock me over, mother, just tell them I thought of them all-- will you?" |
| 23031 | Tell me, reader, can you fancy what the want of so simple a thing as a pocket- handkerchief is? |
| 23031 | To put a case-- have you ever gone out for the day without one; sat in a draught and caught a sneezing cold in the head? |
| 23031 | Was it not so with me? |
| 23031 | Was it possible that American prejudices against colour had some root here? |
| 23031 | What better or happier lot could possibly befall me? |
| 23031 | What can you do for me, mami?" |
| 23031 | What object has Mrs. Seacole in coming out? |
| 23031 | What was to be done? |
| 23031 | Why did n''t he show a little pluck? |
| 23031 | Why did you ever bring me to this place? |
| 23031 | Why not trust to their welcome and kindness, and start at once? |
| 23031 | Will the reader take any interest in my Crimean Christmas- pudding? |

| 42540 | And lastly, the matter in question was not if he should take arms against his father, but if he should succeed him after his death? |
| 42540 | But from whence came these_ Slavi_, whose language has spread over all the north- east part of Europe? |
| 42540 | But how could inhabitants of India navigate the Germanic seas? |
| 42540 | But in what language were the Chinese to negotiate with the Russians, in the midst of deserts? |
| 42540 | But, how can a private declaration of a secret thought, under the seal of confession, be a double parricide? |
| 42540 | Do you not censure and condemn, nay, even affect to hold in detestation, whatever I do for the good of my people? |
| 42540 | Had I not the power in my own hands to oblige you to conform to my will? |

| 42540 | How comes it that they differ so totally from their pretended ancestors in features, figure, and complexion? |

| 42540 | We may perhaps be apt to look upon this as a trivial and ridiculous entertainment for a great prince; but is it more so than our carnival? |
| 42540 | What man would think of making such a memorandum as this,''I must remember to confine my wife in a convent?'' |

| 42540 | with how much stronger reason does such a design deserve to be punished with death? |
| 16930 | And his new title_ Imperator_( Emperor), had it not a diabolic sound? |
| 16930 | And his new"calendar,"transferring September to January, was it not clearly a trick of Satan to steal the days of the Lord? |
| 16930 | And if then he was invited(?) |
| 16930 | And what was the object of all this scheming? |
| 16930 | And who had ever before seen a Tsar of Moscow quit Holy Russia to wander in foreign lands among Turks and Germans? |
| 16930 | And who has ever told upon canvas the story of the battlefield with such energy and with such thrilling reality, as has Verestchagin? |
| 16930 | But how could he be sure of the knowledge and the science of these idle youths-- unless he himself owned it and knew better than they? |
| 16930 | But what could he do? |
| 16930 | By his newly invented census had he not"numbered the people"--a thing expressly forbidden? |
| 16930 | Can anyone estimate the effect upon a single human being to have known that a father, brother, son, sister, or wife has perished under the knout? |
| 16930 | Could such a person ever again be capable of reasoning calmly or sanely upon"political reforms"? |
| 16930 | Did I not show mercy? |
| 16930 | Did he not stand ready to march against Novgorod, or any proud, refractory state which failed in tribute or homage to his master the Khan? |
| 16930 | Had it not always belonged to them? |
| 16930 | How else could they explain such impious demeanor in a Tsar of Russia-- except that he was of Satanic origin, and was the Devil in disguise? |
| 16930 | How long would it have taken Russia to_ grow_ into modern civilization? |
| 16930 | How will this colossal force be used in the future? |
| 16930 | How would Christ recognize his own at the Last Day? |
| 16930 | If some were chastised, was it not for their crimes, and are they not my slaves-- and shall I not do what I will with mine own?" |
| 16930 | If there were any slumbering tiger- instincts in this half- Asiatic people, was not this enough to awaken them? |
| 16930 | If this was a period of_ Renaissance_ for Western Europe, was it not rather a_ Naissance_ for Russia? |
| 16930 | Is it not the part of prudence for us to come to an understanding regarding what should be done in case of such a catastrophe? |
| 16930 | Ivan said later, in his own vindication:"When that dog Adashef betrayed me, was anyone put to death? |
| 16930 | Pskof replies:"How can I but weep and lament? |
| 16930 | Should they lure the French army on to its destruction and then burn and retreat? |
| 16930 | Their Princes were proud and powerful-- their followers( the_ Drujiniki_)--noble and fearless-- who could stand before them? |
| 16930 | They say now that I am cruel and irascible; but to whom? |
| 16930 | Was he not always ready, not only to obey himself, but to enforce the obedience of others? |
| 16930 | We repeat: Who could tell this story of chaos; and who, after it is told, would read it? |
| 16930 | What disaster could be for Russia more terrible than an absorption into Catholic Poland? |
| 16930 | What had Russia to gain from alliances in the West? |
| 16930 | What must have been the Russian_ people_ when her princes were still only barbarians? |
| 16930 | What one man could reform Russia? |
| 16930 | What should they do? |
| 16930 | What was the secret of such a power? |
| 16930 | When was there not a period of troubles in this land? |
| 16930 | Where has there been music suggesting such depths of sadness and of human passion? |
| 16930 | Where have men written with such tragic intensity? |
| 16930 | Who and what was to blame for these calamities? |
| 16930 | Who could reform a volcano? |
| 16930 | Who could tell what might happen? |
| 16930 | Why do you wait? |
| 16930 | Why was it that the Russian army could successfully compete with Turks and Asiatics, and not with Europeans? |
| 16930 | glorious city of Pskof-- why this weeping and lamentation?" |
| 16930 | or should they there take their stand and sacrifice the last army of Russia to save Moscow? |
| 13806 | And this? |
| 13806 | And this? |
| 13806 | And why? |
| 13806 | Any pilmania? |
| 13806 | But,I asked,"do not the men object to this kind of jettison?" |
| 13806 | By what right do you ask for it? 13806 Can I use it in Irkutsk?" |
| 13806 | Did you ever hear,said a gentleman to me,"of rats devouring window- glass, or of anchors and boiler iron blowing away in the wind?" |
| 13806 | For what reason? |
| 13806 | Have they anything? |
| 13806 | How did I come from America,he asked,"and how far had I traveled to reach Blagoveshchensk?" |
| 13806 | How did you speak German? |
| 13806 | How is this? |
| 13806 | How much? |
| 13806 | Is it also the prison for those who are kept here permanently? |
| 13806 | Is it true,he asked carelessly,"that a beaver skin is legal tender for a dollar?" |
| 13806 | Is that the only American tune you have? |
| 13806 | Nothing at all? |
| 13806 | Really, I ca n''t say; what_ is_ Irkutsk? |
| 13806 | Some beef, then? |
| 13806 | Well, would you like to come and sleep here? |
| 13806 | What is that? |
| 13806 | What is this building? |
| 13806 | When would the telegraph be finished? |
| 13806 | Where are you going? |
| 13806 | Where, sir? |
| 13806 | Why do n''t you come to sleighs at once, and settle the matter? |
| 13806 | Why do n''t you have a better seat for your driver? |
| 13806 | Will it be available in Asia? |
| 13806 | Will you be so kind, then,was the traveler''s request,"as to give me change for a dollar bill?" |
| 13806 | _ Parlez vous Francais_? |
| 13806 | _ Skolka stoit, yieetsa_? |
| 13806 | A loud voice roused him--"What are you doing here?" |
| 13806 | And did n''t we enjoy it after riding eight or ten hours over a road that would have shaken skimmilk into butter? |
| 13806 | And what can I say? |
| 13806 | And what_ is_ the difference? |
| 13806 | Are you police?" |
| 13806 | As the latter stopped, General Mouravieff turned to the Captain and asked:"Will you be kind enough to translate what has been said?" |
| 13806 | At the end of the dinner I was ready to answer affirmatively the inquiry,"all full inside?" |
| 13806 | Can any philosopher explain why boats in the service of government are nearly always dirty? |
| 13806 | He named a very small sum, and said--"Come; why do you hesitate?" |
| 13806 | He was set down in the street; and knocking at a house, inquired in the Russian fashion--"Have you horses to hire?" |
| 13806 | How do you do?" |
| 13806 | I wonder if Cuvier knew the taste of the cows at Ohotsk? |
| 13806 | If they can do without trunks, of what should not man be capable? |
| 13806 | In looking at these flocks I remembered a conundrum containing the inquiry,"Why do white sheep eat more hay than black ones?" |
| 13806 | On opening I found a man who asked in a bewildered air,"_ Amerikansky doma?_""_ Dah_,"I responded. |
| 13806 | On passing through a little village at nightfall, a voice cried:"Who is there?" |
| 13806 | Our negotiations required much diplomacy, but our existence depended upon it, and what will not man accomplish when he wants bread and meat? |
| 13806 | Piotrowski took courage, returned the salutations of the passers- by-- for how could he be distinguished in such a crowd? |
| 13806 | Was there ever a steamboat agent who did not promise more than his employers performed? |
| 13806 | What is the difference?" |
| 13806 | What is to be the nationality of the islands in the river? |
| 13806 | When I asked why there was no culture of grain in Kamchatka, they replied:"What is the necessity of it? |
| 13806 | Where to?" |
| 13806 | Who can say whether you do not mean to rob me of my papers? |
| 13806 | Who has ever read or talked of Moscow without its historic fortress? |
| 13806 | Why should we not return the compliment and bestow a little attention upon the Slavonic tongue? |
| 13806 | Would Lindley Murray permit me to say that I saw one barge manned by ten women? |
| 13806 | Would we take sherry, port, or madiera, or would we prefer Johannisberg, Hockheimer, or Verzenay? |
| 13806 | Would we try Veuve Cliquot, or Carte d''Or? |
| 13806 | said his companion,"are you meditating flight? |
| 13806 | was partitioned in 1612 by the Swedes( at Novgorod) and the Poles( at MOSCOW?) |
| 41452 | And pray by what right do you speak thus? |
| 41452 | Are we not told that if we are smitten by an enemy upon one cheek we should turn the other? 41452 Are you in ignorance that my personal safety is in charge of the special Palace Police who are responsible for the safety of the Emperor?" |
| 41452 | Are you not aware that I am immune from espionage by your confounded agents? |
| 41452 | Are you quite certain of this, Holy Father? |
| 41452 | But who are your enemies? |
| 41452 | But why, Holy Father, did you leave us? |
| 41452 | But, Holy Father, what can I do? |
| 41452 | Holy Father,she said one clay to Helidor,"what can I do? |
| 41452 | If so, then why is he not imprisoned? |
| 41452 | Is it really very serious? |
| 41452 | Is there any other enemy who should be removed? |
| 41452 | Is there anything I can do? |
| 41452 | Is this a curse upon me? |
| 41452 | Not even this afternoon? |
| 41452 | Of what nature? |
| 41452 | What is it? |
| 41452 | What is this, Holy Father? |
| 41452 | What of poor little Alexis? |
| 41452 | Whither shall I send those persons? |
| 41452 | Why? |
| 41452 | Will you, my Holy Father, fetch me my private cipher- book? |
| 41452 | You will not leave us at this juncture-- you will not, Holy Father, leave us to our fate? |
| 41452 | Again, were not the scandals of the"Abode of Love"much the same as that of Rasputin''s dozen- wived harem which he established in Pokrovsky? |
| 41452 | By whom?" |
| 41452 | Can not you arrange that he is absent? |
| 41452 | Can not you work a miracle? |
| 41452 | Could any letter be more incriminating? |
| 41452 | Could the Russian people have denounced her"Holy Father"? |
| 41452 | Dear true friend and father, how is Matroysha( Rasputin''s peasant wife)--and the children? |
| 41452 | Even people in Great Britain were daily asking each other"When will Roumania come in it?" |
| 41452 | Four days later Her Majesty telegraphed again to the Tsar:"Tsarskoe- Selo, December 30th, 4:37 p.m."Can you send Voyeipoff to me at once? |
| 41452 | Has history ever before recorded such an astounding letter written by a reigning Empress to a sham saint? |
| 41452 | He had cured the poor; why could he not, if he willed it, cure her son? |
| 41452 | In this letter, which is still upon record, the Grand Duke wrote:"Where is the root of the evil? |
| 41452 | It seems to have acted well-- eh? |
| 41452 | No word against Rasputin''s loyalty was ever believed, for was he not the most intimate and loyal friend of both Emperor and Empress? |
| 41452 | Shall Alexis be taken with another seizure? |
| 41452 | That the Duma were dissatisfied with the state of affairs was plain, but had not the House of Commons often expressed equal dissatisfaction? |
| 41452 | There is but one Tsar, and it is myself-- eh?" |
| 41452 | Therefore, I must bow to the inevitable-- and I Will depart?" |
| 41452 | To whom do you refer?" |
| 41452 | Was he after all endowed with some supernatural power? |
| 41452 | Was he immune from the effects of that most deadly poison? |
| 41452 | Was the monk after all under some divine or mysterious protection? |
| 41452 | What chance had poor suffering Russia against such crafty underhand conspiracy? |
| 41452 | What higher sphere can I achieve? |
| 41452 | What is it worth? |
| 41452 | What is wrong? |
| 41452 | When are you returning from Pokrovsky? |
| 41452 | Where is it?" |
| 41452 | Who has dared to do that?" |
| 41452 | Why do these silly impetuous women warn me? |
| 41452 | Why have you not written? |
| 41452 | Why is he arrested? |
| 41452 | Why is this advance against the Germans not stopped? |
| 41452 | Why this long dead silence when my poor heart is hourly yearning for news of you, and for your words of comfort? |
| 41452 | Why? |
| 41452 | Why? |
| 41452 | Wilt thou give orders to the police to leave me unmolested?" |
| 41452 | Would Rasputin be more successful? |
| 41452 | Would he come? |
| 41452 | Would he walk into the trap so cunningly baited for him? |
| 41452 | can I ever forget that feeling of perfect peace and blank forgetfulness that I experience when you are near me? |
| 41452 | gasped the Emperor,"what has happened? |
| 41452 | he exclaimed at last in his deep, heavy voice, still that of the Siberian mujik,"you desire me here? |
| 45994 | Are you hurt? |
| 45994 | But ca n''t I have some bread and tea first? |
| 45994 | But is n''t it frozen a large part of the year? |
| 45994 | Do you mean your chum, Vanka, whom my mother spanked when he threw mud at me as a child? |
| 45994 | Do you remember Mongalov? |
| 45994 | Do you see anything? |
| 45994 | Do you think you are necessary,she inquired,"to deciding what ought to be done?" |
| 45994 | How big is Siberia? |
| 45994 | How can you tell? |
| 45994 | How do I know? |
| 45994 | How many tigers has he killed? |
| 45994 | Is it a tiger? |
| 45994 | Is she alive? |
| 45994 | Is this your son? 45994 What are you doing here? |
| 45994 | What kind of people are there in Vladivostok? |
| 45994 | What''s the matter with you? |
| 45994 | What''s the use of that? |
| 45994 | Where is Katia? |
| 45994 | Why did you do that? |
| 45994 | Why wo n''t you come with us, Ivan Stepanovitch? |
| 45994 | Why,he answered rather impatiently,"do n''t you hear how the dogs are barking?" |
| 45994 | Will he live? |
| 45994 | Will he return? |
| 45994 | --_Atlanta Constitution._= FAMOUS LEADERS OF INDUSTRY.--First Series="Are these stories interesting? |
| 45994 | A man near the door faced me with,"Where is your rifle?" |
| 45994 | Are you hurt? |
| 45994 | Are you keeping in mind, my son, Cossack ideals of bravery and honor?" |
| 45994 | Are you sick? |
| 45994 | Are you the young fellow whom Captain Mongalov wishes to have a horse?" |
| 45994 | But Mikhailov had heard and signaled"Where?" |
| 45994 | But what else? |
| 45994 | Come in quickly and tell me how you ever managed for so long without your mother?" |
| 45994 | Did n''t I tell you to go in?" |
| 45994 | Did n''t Mitya tell you that he is now a_ sotnik_? |
| 45994 | Do you understand?" |
| 45994 | Father slowly and smilingly replied,"Do n''t you recognize me, Ivan Petrovitch? |
| 45994 | Finally some one did turn to my father with,"Is he quite dead?" |
| 45994 | He turned to me exclaiming roughly:"What''s the matter with you? |
| 45994 | How could they get them so far away, even if they should happen to shoot them?" |
| 45994 | How many rifles can we count on for to- morrow?" |
| 45994 | I heard my mother whisper:"Did the tiger come?" |
| 45994 | Is it possible?" |
| 45994 | Mother saw me and called out,"Where are you in such a hurry to go, you foolish boy? |
| 45994 | Mother watched him with a troubled air, and at last asked:"What''s the matter, Alexis?" |
| 45994 | Mother, greatly alarmed, ran up to me, crying out:"For heaven''s sake, Vanka, what''s the matter? |
| 45994 | One night after I had gone to my bed, where I lay dreaming of having won distinction in the army, I heard mother say,"What''s worrying you, Alexis? |
| 45994 | Or is anything wrong with the horses? |
| 45994 | Or"--here her voice trembled--"have you had bad tidings of Dimitri that you''re afraid to tell me?" |
| 45994 | Petersburg?" |
| 45994 | Seeing me he called out roughly,"What are you doing here? |
| 45994 | Then I heard father saying,"Why ca n''t you be quiet? |
| 45994 | Then Mikhailov asked father,"Where are you going?" |
| 45994 | Then, taking me by the shoulder, he demanded:"Where was the tiger?" |
| 45994 | To relieve the tensity of the atmosphere, he said in quite a natural tone,"You''re scared, Sonny, eh?" |
| 45994 | Were they laughing at me? |
| 45994 | What becomes of it? |
| 45994 | What was the matter? |
| 45994 | What would my father say, or my grandfather? |
| 45994 | What''s the matter?" |
| 45994 | When he saw us he turned to my father with,"From where do you hail, friend?" |
| 45994 | When she understood why I had come, her first question was,"Is father already home?" |
| 45994 | When they had gone, Mongalov turned to the former artillery officer, whose name was Kuzmin, and asked,"Where did you meet Lidia Ivanovna?" |
| 45994 | Where is your father?" |
| 45994 | Whoever heard of their doing such a thing? |
| 45994 | Why do n''t you move there?" |
| 33303 | ''Why does your aching and melancholy song echo unceasingly in one''s ears? 33303 And do you know, bishop?" |
| 33303 | But surely you know what that means? 33303 I hope,"I said,"that he is now better?" |
| 33303 | Is n''t it extraordinarily difficult to acquire, and to make yourself understood? |
| 33303 | Is this the prison? |
| 33303 | What would one of our generals get,said one of the French officers to his friend,"if he ordered such a thing as that?" |
| 33303 | Who will not pray? |
| 33303 | ''And the Jews,''queried the''voice,''''What are they doing?'' |
| 33303 | ''And what about their religion?'' |
| 33303 | And before I left he inquired:--"When will you be coming to Russia again, bishop?" |
| 33303 | And how many of our own peasantry dream of having what is a perfectly ordinary and weekly habit of the Russians-- the bath in his own house? |
| 33303 | And if one only just thinks,"What would our countrymen do in Russia? |
| 33303 | As soon as the Russian priest heard that this was to be done he immediately asked if he and his people might be present and share in the service? |
| 33303 | Can nothing be done?" |
| 33303 | Do you say it? |
| 33303 | How many villages of our own, even now, have a public bath? |
| 33303 | How, then, are we to account for all the well- known stories of miseries and sufferings associated with that lone, and in winter very terrible land? |
| 33303 | I have known more than one peasant ask me,''Is England beyond Germany-- far? |
| 33303 | Mr. Fraser felt it was absurd to call such a place a prison, and asked:--"Do you really mean to say that these women do n''t go away?" |
| 33303 | No? |
| 33303 | Paul?" |
| 33303 | Russia, what do you want of me? |
| 33303 | Soon afterwards an old peasant woman, to whom she had once shown a kindness, arrived, and at once began to inquire:--"Has Elizabeth come yet?" |
| 33303 | Suppose we have our Celebration at 7.30, and you arrange yours for 8.30 instead of 8.15, and we will all come over together? |
| 33303 | The Highlander replied, without a moment''s hesitation,''Doing? |
| 33303 | Then you''ll come and tell us all about it when you return, wo n''t you?" |
| 33303 | What is it that we mean when we speak of the religious life of a people, Christian and non- Christian alike? |
| 33303 | What is there between you and me?'' |
| 33303 | What was she to do? |
| 33303 | When I was leaving I said to her,"I''ve been wondering when you get your rest?" |
| 33303 | Where from and what for?" |
| 33303 | Where''s Elizabeth?" |
| 33303 | Who could not go away deeply thankful that they were not allowed to feel in that remote place that they were forgotten by their Church? |
| 33303 | Whoever would have thought to see the day when the Poles would cheer the Russian troops marching through the streets of their own cities? |
| 33303 | Why has Russia''s attitude hitherto, then, been, and for so long, one of rigid exclusion? |
| 33303 | Why is this policy of vexatious exclusion so persistently followed? |
| 33303 | Will this count for nothing after the war? |
| 33303 | and Antropka answers,"Wha- a- a- at?" |
| 33303 | how would they hope to knit up real and lasting ties, if their Church were not there?" |
| 33303 | or beyond Siberia? |
| 33303 | or"Does any one here speak German?" |
| 15269 | Ah, grand prince, to what counselors have you lent your ear? 15269 Do you mean to say that it is threatened with paralysis?" |
| 15269 | My good woman,said the tzar,"how do you know who I am?" |
| 15269 | Ought not sovereigns,said the embassador,"to seek the glory of religion and the happiness of their subjects? |
| 15269 | Think you that I fear to face this danger; or rather do you apprehend that I know not how to overcome it? 15269 What,"exclaimed Napoleon,"do you refuse to liberate the Russians, who were your allies, who were fighting in your ranks and under your commanders? |
| 15269 | Where is my brother? |
| 15269 | Why are you alarmed? |
| 15269 | Why,said he,"should hostilities arise between France and Russia? |
| 15269 | Yes, madam,Munich answered, in a manly tone;"could I do less for the prince who delivered me from captivity? |
| 15269 | ''How can I,''replied Sviatoslaf,''make a profession of this new religion, which will expose me to the ridicule of all my companions in arms?'' |
| 15269 | Am I in danger?" |
| 15269 | And dare you raise your head against an elephant? |
| 15269 | And who was Suwarrow? |
| 15269 | Are you aware of this, or not? |
| 15269 | Are you ignorant that the destiny of the universe is in my hands? |
| 15269 | Are you willing, oh prince, to surrender Russia to fire and blood, your churches to pillage, your subjects to the sword of the enemy? |
| 15269 | As soon as she perceived him she called aloud,"Field marshal, it was you, then, who wanted to fight me?" |
| 15269 | But why should we not now see the accomplishment of this plan? |
| 15269 | Can she deny that the right of self- preservation gives France a right to demand an equivalent in Europe? |
| 15269 | Can she then complain that France possesses Belgium and the left banks of the Rhine? |
| 15269 | Can the fulfillment of a vow which reason disapproves, be agreeable to God? |
| 15269 | Do her affairs go on well? |
| 15269 | Do you desire peace? |
| 15269 | Do you not know that there is a document which names you presumptive heir?" |
| 15269 | Do you say that the oath, taken by your ancestors, binds you not to raise your arms against the khan? |
| 15269 | Do you wish to prosecute the war? |
| 15269 | Does it not arise from complicity with England, that machinator of conspiracies against the power and the life of the First Consul? |
| 15269 | From whence come these acts of violence? |
| 15269 | Has it passed either of these limits? |
| 15269 | Have I not reason to believe that should you survive me you will destroy all that I have accomplished? |
| 15269 | Have you not opposed every thing I have done for the good of my people? |
| 15269 | How can I suitably reward your glorious actions? |
| 15269 | If Russia desires war, why does she not frankly say so, instead of endeavoring to secure that end indirectly?" |
| 15269 | If, before these events, the power of the sultan inspired us with just fear, ought not this success of his arms to augment our apprehensions?" |
| 15269 | In the country of what prince is the Turkish standard displayed? |
| 15269 | Is it not better for me to die, if I may thus save the lives of my faithful subjects?" |
| 15269 | Is not Russia engaged in similar conspiracies at Rome, at Dresden and at Paris? |
| 15269 | Is the exhalation of an offensive odor the necessary property of a people imbruted by poverty and filth? |
| 15269 | Observing that his wife was in tears he inquired,"Why do you weep? |
| 15269 | On his return, his mother, who is represented as being quite frantic in her inconsolable grief, exclaimed,"Nicholas, what have you done? |
| 15269 | On what did you rely?" |
| 15269 | Or is the King of Prussia, as a tame spectator, to reap no advantage from the troubles in Poland and the Turkish war? |
| 15269 | Should the Porte make such claims on any portion of the Russian dominions, would they not be repulsed? |
| 15269 | Since you were of age have you ever aided your father in his toils? |
| 15269 | The question,"Have we a Bourbon among us?" |
| 15269 | The question,"Have we a Dmitri among us?" |
| 15269 | The tzar indignantly inquires,"What title deed can the Turk show to the city of Constantine?" |
| 15269 | They replied,"If the emperor will give us the treasure we demand, without our exposing ourselves to the perils of battle, what more can we ask? |
| 15269 | Was it possible for me to place it in better hands? |
| 15269 | What can be more proper for me now that I am at the very gates of the tomb?" |
| 15269 | What heart is so insensible as not to be overwhelmed by the thought even of such a calamity? |
| 15269 | What is the meaning of his late conferences with the Emperor of Germany? |
| 15269 | What men, unworthy of the name of Christian, have given you such advice? |
| 15269 | What northern power has the Porte offended? |
| 15269 | What other asylum is there then for me but death? |
| 15269 | What signify ancient or modern customs when all depends upon your royal will? |
| 15269 | What will Europe say, in seeing that I do not carry it into effect?" |
| 15269 | Who are you? |
| 15269 | Who can be sure of victory? |
| 15269 | Who can recollect without emotion the religious silence which reigned throughout the hall and galleries when the vote was put? |
| 15269 | Who can tell on which side will be the victory?" |
| 15269 | Who can tell the tears which have been shed, the blood which has flowed? |
| 15269 | Who that saw that ceremony ever forgot its solemnity? |
| 15269 | Who then shall we choose for our sovereign? |
| 15269 | Whose territories have the Ottoman troops invaded? |
| 15269 | Why do your game- keepers exclude us from the chase, and drive us from our own fields? |
| 15269 | Why have you driven from Novgorod strangers who were living peaceably in the midst of us? |
| 15269 | Why have you robbed others of their money? |
| 15269 | Will you throw away your arms and shamefully take to flight? |
| 15269 | Would you believe what I had to discuss with him? |
| 15269 | Would you have allowed him thus to remain there had you not recognized him as the legitimate prince?" |
| 15269 | [ 15] If I am willing to lay down my own life for Russia, do you think that I shall be willing to sacrifice my country for you? |
| 15269 | can I not die with him?" |
| 15269 | do you not know me?" |
| 15269 | exclaimed Vladimir;"where is he to whom we are indebted for all this glory?" |
| 16613 | How, otherwise, can we go home? |
| 16613 | I hear your speeches, peasant comrades, and I no longer understand anything.... What is going on? 16613 In whose name do you order us, who are Delegates to the Peasants''Congress of All- Russia, to disperse?" |
| 16613 | In whose name do you order us, who are Delegates to the Peasants''Congress of All- Russia, to disperse? |
| 16613 | Is it a law? 16613 What? |
| 16613 | Would you have us Russian proletarians fight in this war for England''s colonial interests? |
| 16613 | Against the evils we struggle, but how? |
| 16613 | And what will be the outcome of that? |
| 16613 | And when they were asked,"Why do you do this?" |
| 16613 | And when they were asked,"Why do you do this?" |
| 16613 | But has the court anything to say about all these distinctions? |
| 16613 | But how can we secure a strict unity of will? |
| 16613 | But is it not equally criminal on the part of Serbs to refuse autonomy to Macedonia and to oppress smaller and weaker nations? |
| 16613 | But we are of this side, and you are of the other.... Why? |
| 16613 | But what if among these there should develop a purpose contrary to the purpose of the Bolsheviki? |
| 16613 | By what forces have the Bolsheviki thus killed our country? |
| 16613 | By what violence to reason and to language is the word_ democracy_ applied to the system described by Lenine? |
| 16613 | Can the Bolsheviki guarantee that their road will lead us to the correct solution of the crisis? |
| 16613 | Could the farmer ever be a genuine and sincere and trustworthy Socialist? |
| 16613 | Did Lenine think of the actual consequences of his proposal to arrest several dozen capitalists at this time? |
| 16613 | Does this mean that free Russia is a nation of rebellious slaves?" |
| 16613 | He was asked what a"democratic"government should be, and replied:"I am asked,''What should a democratic government be? |
| 16613 | How can there be a_ class_ movement unless the way is open to all the working class to participate?" |
| 16613 | How could he, this wretched and oppressed peasant develop civic sentiments, a consciousness of his personal dignity? |
| 16613 | How else, indeed, can their sincerity be demonstrated? |
| 16613 | How many are simply victims of subtle neuroses occasioned by sex derangements, by religious chaos, and similar causes? |
| 16613 | How shall we explain this phenomenon? |
| 16613 | How will the situation be remedied?" |
| 16613 | In fine, what is Bolshevism in its essence? |
| 16613 | Is it not a law? |
| 16613 | Is the journalist, for instance, engaged in useful and productive labor? |
| 16613 | Is the novelist? |
| 16613 | Is there no logical sense in the average radical''s mind? |
| 16613 | Of whom will it be composed? |
| 16613 | Revolutionary armies may fraternize, but with whom? |
| 16613 | Send the revolutionary regiments from Petrograd? |
| 16613 | Soon after the_ coup d''état_ of October the question was among all parties and all organizations:"What is to be done? |
| 16613 | The Bolsheviki tried by every means to elude a straight answer to the question,"Does the Congress wish to uphold the Constituent Assembly?" |
| 16613 | To make easier the surrender of the capital to the counter- revolution?" |
| 16613 | Under what condition, then, can such a strong, democratic government be established? |
| 16613 | Upon what ground is it decided that the"private merchant"may not vote? |
| 16613 | Was it because he was inconsistent, vacillating, and weak that Kerensky attached his name to such a document? |
| 16613 | Was it to bow down at the feet of Wilhelm that we overthrew Nicholas? |
| 16613 | What could the socialization of the soil be to Lenine and all the Bolsheviki in general? |
| 16613 | What did all this mean? |
| 16613 | What did this failure signify? |
| 16613 | What has it established? |
| 16613 | What ruling class ever failed to make that claim? |
| 16613 | What standard is to be established to determine what labor is"productive"and"useful"? |
| 16613 | What will German victory bring to western Europe? |
| 16613 | What will this Constituent Assembly be? |
| 16613 | What, one wonders, do these American Bolsheviki worshipers think of the teaching of these paragraphs from an article by Lenine? |
| 16613 | Who has separated us? |
| 16613 | Why, then, have they dissolved the Constituent Assembly elected by the people? |
| 16613 | Why, then, this governmental terror that is being used in a manner more cruel even than in the time of Czarism? |
| 16613 | Why, therefore, may it not be continued indefinitely? |
| 16613 | Will it recognize the power of the Soviets?_ Then came certain hypocritical"ifs." |
| 16613 | _ Can we confide to such a Constituent Assembly the destinies of the Russian Revolution? |
| 16613 | is the agitator? |
| 60315 | And the revolution there? |
| 60315 | But if even such small improvements had not resulted from the Revolution,I argued,"what purpose has it served?" |
| 60315 | But what can the Government do in the face of the food shortage? |
| 60315 | Do you expect to get the documents out? |
| 60315 | Has the Revolution given you nothing? |
| 60315 | Have not their tactics and methods been imposed on the Bolsheviki by intervention and blockade? |
| 60315 | Instinctive Anarchists? |
| 60315 | Is not the theft of flour the cause of the strict surveillance? |
| 60315 | Is there a recreation room, a place where they can eat or drink their tea and inhale a bit of fresh air? |
| 60315 | Protest, to whom? |
| 60315 | These people come to Russia just to look us over,one of the Red Army men said;"do they know anything about us or are they interested in how we live? |
| 60315 | Thousands of Russian working women have no more, and why should I? |
| 60315 | We have been compelled to mobilize an army to fight our external enemies why not an army to fight our worst internal enemy, hunger? 60315 Well,_ batyushka_, how is it with you?" |
| 60315 | What am I to do? |
| 60315 | What do you mean by morally defective? |
| 60315 | What is this? |
| 60315 | Where do these unfortunates come from? |
| 60315 | Why have n''t you raised your voice against these evils, against this machine that is sapping the life blood of the Revolution? |
| 60315 | Why should they not see the true state of Russia? 60315 Would not the Tcheka prefer to confiscate the goods of the big delicatessen and fruit stores on the Kreschatik?" |
| 60315 | You know of the insurgent movement in America against our public school method of education, the work done by Professor Dewey and others? |
| 60315 | You surely do not mean the American public school system? |
| 60315 | You want to know my views on the present situation and my attitude toward the Bolsheviki? |
| 60315 | And Shatov? |
| 60315 | And his scheme-- was it the Revolution? |
| 60315 | And our children? |
| 60315 | And then, was not Lenin also guilty of the same methods? |
| 60315 | And who will rest in these homes? |
| 60315 | But how can they get more work out of us? |
| 60315 | But what is this strange writing on the wall? |
| 60315 | But what was I to tell them, and would they believe me if I did? |
| 60315 | But, then-- had not Zorin told me that capital punishment had been abolished in Russia? |
| 60315 | Could such a condition of affairs be avoided in a revolutionary period and in a country so little developed industrially as Russia? |
| 60315 | Did I"intend to remain a free bird"was one of his first questions, or would I be willing to join him in his work? |
| 60315 | Did he not fear I would report him? |
| 60315 | Did not Zorin say that capital punishment had been abolished? |
| 60315 | Did the American woman believe in free motherhood and was she familiar with the subject of birth control? |
| 60315 | Did you see any shortage of food there? |
| 60315 | Do the visitors know anything about us?" |
| 60315 | Free speech, free press, the spiritual achievements of centuries, what were they to this man? |
| 60315 | Had I misunderstood the meaning and nature of revolution? |
| 60315 | Had the Red Dawn broken into the narrow lives of these ascetics? |
| 60315 | Had the Revolution penetrated even the walls of superstition? |
| 60315 | How can they be blamed? |
| 60315 | How could they be guilty of the terrible things charged against them? |
| 60315 | How did these things get to the markets? |
| 60315 | How explain this astonishing lack of response? |
| 60315 | How soon will the Revolution be there? |
| 60315 | How, then, could the Bolsheviki maintain themselves in power? |
| 60315 | I had never called upon the police before, I informed him; why should I do so in revolutionary Russia? |
| 60315 | If the Revolution really had to support so much brutality and crime, what was the purpose of the Revolution, after all? |
| 60315 | Is that what you mean?" |
| 60315 | Is there any change in the world? |
| 60315 | Look at the bread,"he said, holding up a black crust;"can we live on that? |
| 60315 | Occasionally they sought to mask their killings by pretending a"misunderstanding,"for does n''t the end justify all means? |
| 60315 | One of his first questions was,"When could the Social Revolution be expected in America?" |
| 60315 | Or is it all an eternal recurrence of man''s inhumanity to man? |
| 60315 | Or was it the political machine which the Bolsheviki have created-- is that the force which is crushing the Revolution? |
| 60315 | Or was their great need of European help father to their wish? |
| 60315 | Was I to join this tragic procession, submit to the political yoke? |
| 60315 | Was it different in America? |
| 60315 | Was not violence inevitable in a revolution, and was it not imposed upon the Bolsheviki by the Interventionists? |
| 60315 | Was their judgment so faulty because they had been cut off from Europe and America so long? |
| 60315 | Were not initiative and freedom essential? |
| 60315 | Were the conditions I found inevitable-- the callous indifference to human life, the terrorism, the waste and agony of it all? |
| 60315 | Were these really nuns? |
| 60315 | What about persecution and terror-- were all the horrors inevitable, or was there some fault in Bolshevism itself? |
| 60315 | What are the Workers''and Peasants''Soviets doing? |
| 60315 | What did it mean? |
| 60315 | What except moral defection could result from such a heritage?" |
| 60315 | What greater service could one render the Russian people? |
| 60315 | What had happened? |
| 60315 | What is the Communist Government doing for these unfortunates? |
| 60315 | What relation could there be between Tammany Hall, Boss Murphy, and the Soviet Government? |
| 60315 | What was his opinion? |
| 60315 | What was that machine? |
| 60315 | Who defeated Denikin and the other counter- revolutionary generals? |
| 60315 | Who directed its movements? |
| 60315 | Who else but the people, the peasants and the workers, made it impossible for the German and Austrian army to remain in the Ukraine? |
| 60315 | Who triumphed over Koltchak and Yudenitch? |
| 60315 | Who was buying the finery of the past, and where did the purchasing power come from? |
| 60315 | Why are we kept here?" |
| 60315 | Why be surprised now?" |
| 60315 | Why did Zorin resort to lies? |
| 60315 | Why did not Shatov come to meet us? |
| 60315 | Why did you come to starving Russia?" |
| 60315 | Why had he been silent so long? |
| 60315 | Why should one have to give up his freedom, especially in educational work? |
| 60315 | Why should they have to gather in secret and in such a place? |
| 60315 | Why should they not learn how the Russian people live?" |
| 60315 | Why this shooting? |
| 60315 | Would I have believed any adverse criticism before I came to Russia? |
| 60315 | Would he see me? |
| 60315 | Would it ever come to Russia? |
| 60315 | Would she see me? |
| 60315 | Would the watchmaker take fifty pounds? |
| 60315 | Would we join in the work? |
| 60315 | Zinoviev, Radek, Zorin, Ravitch, and many others I had learned to know-- could they in the name of an ideal lie, defame, torture, kill? |
| 60315 | is that what we made the Revolution for, or was it to do away with masters? |
| 60315 | who is it calls for such a luxury?" |
| 41495 | ''And was she good?'' 41495 ''Do you strike at your own people, you devil''s whelp?'' |
| 41495 | ''How now, my son? 41495 ''How shall we fight then,--with fists?'' |
| 41495 | ''What are you doing?'' 41495 ''What was lacking to make him a true Cossack?'' |
| 41495 | And what great thing have_ you_ done? |
| 41495 | To serve them? |
| 41495 | We? 41495 What is that?" |
| 41495 | What sort of fellow is your friend Bazarof? |
| 41495 | Why so sad, brother?'' 41495 ''Are you in trouble?'' 41495 ''Is it well that such things should be brought to light?'' 41495 And all this for what? 41495 And how should he? 41495 And the poet Mikailof chides the revolutionaries with the words:Why not let your indignation speak, my brothers? |
| 41495 | And what will foreigners say? |
| 41495 | And where is the man? |
| 41495 | And why should I not mock at you, I should like to know?'' |
| 41495 | And why the differences between French naturalism, the Russian_ natural school_, English and Spanish realism, and Italian_ verismo_? |
| 41495 | Are the authors and critics the only ones responsible for this directive character of most Russian novels? |
| 41495 | Are they any the less Realists for this? |
| 41495 | As to Lermontof, is it not marvellous that a man who died at the age of twenty- six years should have produced anything like a novel? |
| 41495 | But-- what can you do? |
| 41495 | Could Gogol have been acquainted with the Tale of the Cid and the other Spanish Romanceros? |
| 41495 | Did not the proclamation of the Czar read that they were free? |
| 41495 | Did you say his boots? |
| 41495 | Do not these words almost seem to describe the beginnings of Christianity in Rome? |
| 41495 | Dost thou not feel thyself carried onward toward the unknown like this impetuous bird which nobody can overtake? |
| 41495 | Doth the whirlwind sometimes nestle in their manes? |
| 41495 | Had it not been for their omnipotent initiative, who knows if even now slavery would not stain the face of Europe? |
| 41495 | Has any novel had any influence at all in Spanish political, social, or moral life? |
| 41495 | Has the great writer died? |
| 41495 | Has your hatred no power to threaten and to wound?" |
| 41495 | Have your Polish friends been of much use to you?'' |
| 41495 | He sees a horse, and at once inquires,"When this animal dies, where will his spirit go? |
| 41495 | If somebody were to kill her and use her fortune for the good of humanity, do you not think that a thousand good deeds would compensate for the crime? |
| 41495 | In speaking of nihilism I have mentioned the most important one of the directive Russian novels, called"What to Do?" |
| 41495 | Into the body of a man?" |
| 41495 | Into the body of another horse? |
| 41495 | Is it Malthusian pessimism which would refuse to provide any more subjects for despotism? |
| 41495 | Is it a consequence of the theory which Schopenhauer preached, but did not practise? |
| 41495 | Is it a manifestation of an idealist sentiment which is always present in revolutionary outbursts? |
| 41495 | Is it a mistake to say that in this commonplace little episode there is more of poetry than in many elegies and innumerable sonnets? |
| 41495 | Is it a result of the natural coldness of the Scythian? |
| 41495 | Is it mere woman''s pride demanding for her sex liberty and franchises which she scorns to make use of? |
| 41495 | Is it strange that the parishioner respects them but little? |
| 41495 | Is it the lightning? |
| 41495 | Is it the thunderbolt from heaven itself? |
| 41495 | Is our horrible misfortune worthy of nothing more than a vain tribute of tears? |
| 41495 | Is the goal which we desire to attain inaccessible? |
| 41495 | Is there a single modern novel that is popular, in the true meaning of the word, among us? |
| 41495 | Is this really true? |
| 41495 | Is"War and Peace"a historical novel in the limited, archæological, false, and conventional conception? |
| 41495 | Now, to begin, how did this much- discussed word originate? |
| 41495 | Of what use then a mere smattering, which would be insufficient to give to my studies a positive character and an indisputable authority? |
| 41495 | One asks,"Is everything gone up?" |
| 41495 | The author wishes to solve the problem put by Herzen in the title to his novel,"Who is to blame?" |
| 41495 | The driver? |
| 41495 | The title is,"What to do?" |
| 41495 | To begin with, is nihilism pure negation? |
| 41495 | To what does the_ mir_ owe its vitality? |
| 41495 | What artistic future awaits the young North American nation? |
| 41495 | What cared they--"the little black men"--for the dignity of the freeman or the rights of citizenship? |
| 41495 | What causes this movement of universal terror? |
| 41495 | What have you done? |
| 41495 | What man? |
| 41495 | What must be the æsthetic and political determination of this race, which prefers the possession of the soil to the liberty of the individual? |
| 41495 | What mysterious and incomprehensible force spurs on thy steeds? |
| 41495 | What proportion does the artistic energy of England and Germany bear to their political strength? |
| 41495 | What weight has a stupid, evil- minded old shrew in the social scale? |
| 41495 | What? |
| 41495 | Whence came the revolutionary element in Russia? |
| 41495 | Where is there a person of nobler desires and projects than Alexander II.? |
| 41495 | Wherefore, then, is he judged superior to the other classes of society? |
| 41495 | Who can doubt the reflex action which the anonymous multitude exercises on eminent persons, when he contemplates the great Russian novelists? |
| 41495 | Who can explain the causes of this diversity of destiny between the two branches that most resemble each other on this great tree? |
| 41495 | Who can imagine a forum, an oracle, a tribune, in Russia? |
| 41495 | Who ever heard of a satirist turning Church father? |
| 41495 | Who has not sometimes entered a convent church on leaving a ball- room,--in the early morning hours of Ash- Wednesday, for instance? |
| 41495 | Who has not sometimes experienced with terrible keenness what may be called the æsthetic effect of collectivity? |
| 41495 | Who stops to see whether the life- preservers thrown to drowning men struggling with death are of elegant workmanship? |
| 41495 | Why did he not go mad? |
| 41495 | Why is love silent? |
| 41495 | Why was romanticism so much the same in England, Germany, Spain, and Russia? |
| 41495 | Your father?'' |
| 41495 | whither goest thou? |
| 12328 | And do you believe in all this stuff? |
| 12328 | Are you a pickled cabbage? |
| 12328 | Are you sure? |
| 12328 | But where did you see him last?--Where did he spend the summer? |
| 12328 | But,said I,"what do you intend to do at the end of those five days?" |
| 12328 | Do you know anything about that? |
| 12328 | Does it work? |
| 12328 | Does n''t that look like home? |
| 12328 | GO TO SLEEP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, WILL YOU? |
| 12328 | Have you ever seen anything like it before? |
| 12328 | How about the Atlantic cable? |
| 12328 | It''s a capital song,Dodd replied reassuringly;"do you know any more American words?" |
| 12328 | Makes what-- the reflection? |
| 12328 | Shall I try to round to abreast of her? |
| 12328 | That? |
| 12328 | The sailors of a whaling- ship learned it to me when I was in Petropavlovsk, two years ago; is n''t it a good song? |
| 12328 | Vwe kooda yáydetia? |
| 12328 | We''re Gizhigintsi, also going to Penzhina; what you coming down the river for? |
| 12328 | We''re going to Penzhina; who are you? |
| 12328 | Well,replied the snowy figure standing waist- high in the drift.--"Amerikanski nyett dobra kaiur, eh?" |
| 12328 | Well,said we expectantly, after a moment''s pause,"what does it taste like?" |
| 12328 | Were they married? |
| 12328 | What are those? |
| 12328 | What are you doing in the middle of the road there? |
| 12328 | What did he want that tippet for? |
| 12328 | What do you suppose makes it? |
| 12328 | What do you suppose that''s for? |
| 12328 | What does he say? |
| 12328 | What is it, anyhow? |
| 12328 | What makes you think there''s anything the matter with it? |
| 12328 | What ship is it? |
| 12328 | What steamer is that lying at anchor beyond the_ Clara Bell_? |
| 12328 | What''s that? |
| 12328 | Where away? |
| 12328 | Where did he get that coat and sword? |
| 12328 | Where did you get that coat? 12328 Where did you learn?" |
| 12328 | Where have you been all summer? |
| 12328 | Where in the name of Chort did you come from? |
| 12328 | Who are you? |
| 12328 | Why did n''t you stop them? |
| 12328 | --"At kooda?" |
| 12328 | --"But what is she doing up here?" |
| 12328 | --"Suppose he had_ not_ caught her there, then what?" |
| 12328 | --"Where are you going?" |
| 12328 | --"Where from?" |
| 12328 | --"You do n''t suppose,"responded Viushin, with excited gestures,"that I''m going to stay in that hole and be eaten up by Korak dogs? |
| 12328 | A sleepy grunt and a still more drowsy"Is it?" |
| 12328 | A startled voice from under my feet demanded"Who''s there?" |
| 12328 | And what time is it now? |
| 12328 | Any news from St. Petersburg? |
| 12328 | Are you just from America? |
| 12328 | As soon as I could make my escape, I went to General Kukel and said:"Will you please tell me, Your Excellency, what''s the matter with my Russian?" |
| 12328 | But how came people there? |
| 12328 | But what are you doing up in this God- forsaken country? |
| 12328 | Ca n''t you say something? |
| 12328 | Could human impudence go farther? |
| 12328 | Did Lucullus ever feast upon preserved rose- petals in his, vaunted pleasure- gardens of Tusculum? |
| 12328 | Did we go to bed today? |
| 12328 | Did you hear the cannon?" |
| 12328 | Did you meet him? |
| 12328 | Do n''t you see it?" |
| 12328 | Do you really believe that these women talk in the Yakut language, which they have never heard, and describe things which they have never seen?" |
| 12328 | During our stay in Petropavlovsk we succeeded in learning the Russian for"Yes,""No,"and"How do you do?" |
| 12328 | Even if they were still in their old camp, however, how were we to find them? |
| 12328 | Had he never wondered, as the fiery arms of the aurora waved over his head, what caused these mysterious streamers? |
| 12328 | Had not some"--revealings faint and far, Stealing down from moon and star, Kindled in that human clod Thought of Destiny and God?" |
| 12328 | Had our competitors beaten us, or was there still a fighting chance that we might beat them? |
| 12328 | Has the universal Yankee got up here?" |
| 12328 | Have you been shipwrecked?" |
| 12328 | How did you cross the tundras; with the Koraks? |
| 12328 | How does the come-_páss_ know anything about these accursed mountains? |
| 12328 | How long will you stay in town? |
| 12328 | How many_ pagánni_ rivers do we have to wade through in getting to this beastly village?" |
| 12328 | I exclaimed impressively,"did n''t you teach me those very words yourself?" |
| 12328 | I repeated in astonishment, never having heard of the disease in question;"what has the''Anadyrski bol''got to do with an old tippet?" |
| 12328 | Impelled by hunger and cold, we repeated twenty times the despairing question,"How much farther is it?" |
| 12328 | In a moment I heard Mr. Leet shouting down into the neck- hole of my fur coat,"What would our mothers say if they could see us now?" |
| 12328 | Is my pronunciation so horribly bad?" |
| 12328 | Mr. Kennan, is that you? |
| 12328 | My acquirements in Russian were limited to"Yes,""No,"and"How do you do?" |
| 12328 | My first question of course was,"Where''s Bush?" |
| 12328 | Startled and bewildered with half- incredulous recognition, I could only reply,"Bush, is that you?" |
| 12328 | Suddenly some one rose up from the floor at my feet, and, grasping me by the arm, exclaimed in a strangely familiar voice,"Kennan, is that you?" |
| 12328 | The question was rather,"Where is the dance to be tonight?" |
| 12328 | The unlucky( lucky?) |
| 12328 | Then how many times does this one river run past this one settlement?" |
| 12328 | Thwack? |
| 12328 | Under such circumstances, what could be done? |
| 12328 | Were these the principles of dog- driving which I had evolved out of the depths of my_ moral_ consciousness? |
| 12328 | What bark is this?" |
| 12328 | What could a poor Kamchatkan village do for the entertainment of its august master? |
| 12328 | What did you run into that tree for? |
| 12328 | What possessed you to come off to the ship such a night as this?" |
| 12328 | What was such an unfortunate party to do? |
| 12328 | What''s the matter with him now?" |
| 12328 | Where''s the door?" |
| 12328 | Who''s going to telegraph from here?" |
| 12328 | With heart beating fast from excitement I sprang from my sledge, ran up to the_ pavoska_, and demanded in English,"Who is it?" |
| 12328 | You do n''t mean to say that I''ve been swearing?" |
| 12328 | You might not have found us here at all, and then where would you have been?" |
| 12328 | [ Footnote: How do you do?] |
| 12328 | [ he could not say Kennan] who''s a g''un to cook for ye, and ye ca n''t get no potatusses?" |
| 12328 | asked the Major;"what''s his name?" |
| 12328 | cried Heck to me,"or shall I go bang down on her?" |
| 12328 | have n''t we got most to that_ con- found- ed_ Malqua yet?" |
| 12328 | is the matter?" |
| 12328 | of amazement, and asked with a wondering look,"Are_ all_ the women in your country as big as that at the bottom?" |
| 12328 | or was it yesterday? |
| 12328 | said Dodd in disgust;"where''s Meranef?" |
| 12328 | shouted the ispravnik to our leading driver,"are you all ready?" |
| 36505 | And what are the duties belonging to your place? |
| 36505 | Do you know,said he to them,"that I have powder enough to blow up all your mountains?" |
| 36505 | How did you obtain the rank of professor of natural philosophy? |
| 36505 | Not work again, wo nt you? 36505 What can we do for thee?" |
| 36505 | What on earth do you mean? |
| 36505 | Where did you study? |
| 36505 | ''And how did you like Germany?'' |
| 36505 | ''And what was this thing that stuck so in your stomach?'' |
| 36505 | ''Well, then, Daddy(_ batiushka_),''said my puzzled and curious friend,''do tell me, what is it you are afoot for?'' |
| 36505 | ''Where am I?'' |
| 36505 | ''You, too,''she ejaculated,''you, too, have divorced yourself from the world, and why? |
| 36505 | --"How many days do your peasants work?" |
| 36505 | A handsome garden, a capital cook, books, a view of the sea-- what more could any one desire? |
| 36505 | Among these ten arguments is there one tending to prove that they entertain any secret views? |
| 36505 | And if they are expelled, whither can they retire? |
| 36505 | And now let us ask what is the work which Russia is doing beyond the Caucasus for the advantage or detriment of mankind? |
| 36505 | And now let us ask whence came those nomade people that preceded the modern Cossacks in the steppes of the Don and the Sea of Azov? |
| 36505 | And suppose they have, how could they have preserved their lives without doing so? |
| 36505 | And yet what is all this in reality? |
| 36505 | Ay, why?'' |
| 36505 | Besides, if the Cossacks had really come from the Caucasus, would they not have retained some neighbourly relations with the mountaineers? |
| 36505 | But might not the produce of a great part of Poland, and of all new Russia, be conveyed to Odessa by the Pruth, the Dniestr, and the Dniepr? |
| 36505 | But the ceremony did not end there:_ Kooda barinya? |
| 36505 | But the reader will say, is bigamy allowed among the Cossacks? |
| 36505 | But was this what we had come to see? |
| 36505 | But we were soon called back from all these charming phantoms of the imagination to the realities of life? |
| 36505 | But what of that? |
| 36505 | Can they have persuaded themselves that I would not stir to expel them? |
| 36505 | Could Chereng alone have been able to persuade a whole nation? |
| 36505 | Could he have put Oubacha and all the Torgouths, his subjects, in motion? |
| 36505 | Could we even grace with the name of town the place where we then were and the streets we beheld? |
| 36505 | Could we refuse such a man the parcels of coffee, tea, and sugar he had been so long soliciting with looks and hints? |
| 36505 | Could we remain untouched by such conduct? |
| 36505 | Driven to despair, would they not have rushed into the most violent excesses? |
| 36505 | Have not we, too, an influence to keep up in Asia? |
| 36505 | How could they protect themselves? |
| 36505 | How could they secure the peace of those deserts? |
| 36505 | How far has she been successful? |
| 36505 | How will it be with it in a few years, when the canals and railroads projected in Germany, shall have been finished? |
| 36505 | I exclaimed, in great indignation,"do we not pay eight rubles a day?" |
| 36505 | Is it likely that Kasachia was more fortunate? |
| 36505 | Is it not that of some expatriated Frenchman, who had found employment among the Russians? |
| 36505 | Is it to be wondered that with such a military administration, Russia makes no progress in the Caucasus? |
| 36505 | Is not this the history of many a Trappist or Carthusian? |
| 36505 | Is the air of slavery so contagious that no one can breathe it without losing his personal dignity? |
| 36505 | Is this intellectual insensibility the result of servitude exclusively? |
| 36505 | Let any one look fairly and impartially at the immense region comprised between the Danube and the Caspian, and what will he behold? |
| 36505 | Now can Russia, under existing circumstances, increase her chances of success? |
| 36505 | On what bases then have the operations of the Odessa bank hitherto rested? |
| 36505 | Shall I persuade myself that they are all submitted to me, and that they own themselves my vassals? |
| 36505 | She was perfectly right, for, situated as the nobility are, who would dare to criticise and condemn their faults? |
| 36505 | So it is with every thing else: what matters the substance if the form is beautiful and pleasing to the eye?" |
| 36505 | Such instruments among the Kalmucks-- is it not really prodigious? |
| 36505 | The fact being admitted, what is the position most favourable for these vast plans of aggrandisement? |
| 36505 | There is nothing like their fatalism for enabling one to take all things as they come; is not that the acme of human wisdom? |
| 36505 | Was Russia more fortunate at Cabul? |
| 36505 | Was its motive one of a philanthropic kind? |
| 36505 | We were ourselves very much puzzled to know what it meant, and jumping up from table we ran and saw-- what? |
| 36505 | What are a divan, books, music, pictures, to the privileged being who has them always before him? |
| 36505 | What are the destinies ultimately reserved for the Mussulman population of the Crimea,[83] now numbering barely 100,000 souls? |
| 36505 | What breadth of land do they till for you?" |
| 36505 | What can be expected of armies in which want of all necessaries and total disregard for the lives of men are the order of the day? |
| 36505 | What description could adequately depict this marvellous spectacle, or even give an idea of it? |
| 36505 | What did Negri and Mouravief effect at Khiva and Bokhara? |
| 36505 | What follows? |
| 36505 | What have they seen? |
| 36505 | What is the result of this wretched corruption? |
| 36505 | What is the use of such walls when there is no fear of being attacked by a neighbour? |
| 36505 | What is the use of those vaulted passages without men- at- arms to fill them? |
| 36505 | What may we conclude are the destinies in store for the Russian nobility, and what part will it play in the future history of the country? |
| 36505 | What signify a few blows more or less, when a body is going to be roasted with the fiends?" |
| 36505 | What then does the novice, who has perhaps carried off the prize of eloquence at the university? |
| 36505 | What, then, are we to suppose is the origin of all those tribes who, under the name of Tatars, now inhabit the south of Russia? |
| 36505 | Which is the more absurd of these two opinions? |
| 36505 | Who can fail to recognise the Biblical allegory in the fruit_ shimé_, which the first men were imprudent enough to taste? |
| 36505 | Who would have supplied them with the means of existence? |
| 36505 | Will the government at last open its eyes to the mischiefs of the course it is pursuing? |
| 36505 | Will you be my first disciple?'' |
| 36505 | Would any one suppose they were not the produce of the Indian Ocean? |
| 36505 | Would it not be wronging creation, as Lamartine has said, to compare Constantinople with any thing else in this world? |
| 36505 | Would you ask the shrub broken by the storm why the breath of spring does not reanimate its mutilated form? |
| 36505 | cries the overseer,"have you lost your wits, and do n''t you know that you ought to have been at work hours ago?" |
| 36505 | exclaimed a Russian who was present,"your estate yields you but 10,000 rubles a- year? |
| 36505 | kooda barinya?_( where is madame),_ nadlegit_( it must be so), and so I was forced to come among them and receive my share of the eggs and embraces. |
| 36505 | of what combats, feuds, loves, and revenges have they been witnesses? |
| 36505 | said the puzzled overseer;"what has happened to you to make you talk such nonsense?" |
| 36505 | what''s all this?" |
| 18165 | ''How could I send you on an errand?'' 18165 And so punish herself for the fault of others, perhaps?" |
| 18165 | And what can one have? |
| 18165 | Are you a good walker? |
| 18165 | But how am I to do that? 18165 But suppose the man is lazy, or wants to get his work done while he is idling, enjoying himself, or earning money elsewhere for_ vodka_ or what not? |
| 18165 | But what is one to do? 18165 But why has my application been refused?" |
| 18165 | But will they let me have it? |
| 18165 | Come, do n''t you think it is worth a few kopeks to be called''a pearl,''''a diamond,''''an emerald''? |
| 18165 | Could he read? 18165 Did he know Count Tolstoy? |
| 18165 | Do you really let people have these forbidden books? |
| 18165 | Do you suppose that God, who knows all things, does not know our table of ranks? |
| 18165 | England, then? |
| 18165 | Even bread must have yeast; and if we all make ourselves exactly alike, who is to act as yeast? 18165 France?" |
| 18165 | Have you any recollection of Martin Chuzzlewit? 18165 Have you ever read The''Power of Darkness''? |
| 18165 | Have you ever visited a church of the Old Believers? |
| 18165 | How had they affected him? 18165 How many can I have on this petition?" |
| 18165 | How many copies of the''Century''? 18165 How so?" |
| 18165 | Hungary? |
| 18165 | In what room shall I find the Ladies''Artistic Circle? |
| 18165 | Is America near Berlin? |
| 18165 | Is it Germany? |
| 18165 | Is that allowed? |
| 18165 | Is the captain''s signature worth so much? |
| 18165 | Is there no other meat? |
| 18165 | Is_ that_ all they called you? |
| 18165 | My woman''s reputation for neat mending trembles in the balance; and do not you advocate the theory that we should help our fellow- men? 18165 No, no; how many periodical publications would you like?" |
| 18165 | Ought not every person to do as much as possible for himself, and not call upon others unless compelled to do so? |
| 18165 | Surely,I said,"you do not think that the earth is flat, and that we live on the upper side, and you on the lower?" |
| 18165 | Then where is the police office or the address office? |
| 18165 | To whom? 18165 Uncut?" |
| 18165 | Very true; and St. Sergius drives with three, and St. Pantaleimon with two,--do they not? 18165 Was he a more honest man than before? |
| 18165 | Was that Vasily Dmitrich? |
| 18165 | What author? 18165 What do you do when you have not the chance?" |
| 18165 | What harm is there in comfort and luxury to any extent,I asked,"provided that all enjoy it?" |
| 18165 | What, have you no kerchief? |
| 18165 | Where do you come from? |
| 18165 | Where''s your cake? |
| 18165 | Which are your passports? |
| 18165 | Which,I asked,"is the real miraculous Iversky Virgin?--the one in the chapel, the one who rides in the carriage, or the original on Mount Athos?" |
| 18165 | Whither is he going? |
| 18165 | Who would have expected such smoothness of motion from such an inferior- looking old craft? |
| 18165 | Whom was he saluting? |
| 18165 | Why did n''t you send me word earlier? |
| 18165 | Why do n''t you go on up that street? |
| 18165 | Why make us waste all that time in beautiful Moscow? 18165 Why not? |
| 18165 | Why not? 18165 Why was not this application granted?" |
| 18165 | Why? 18165 Will-- they-- let-- you-- have-- it-- when-- I-- say-- so?" |
| 18165 | ''* Was there any other title which they could have bestowed on me for the money?" |
| 18165 | ''And we''re old, old friends, are n''t we, barynya? |
| 18165 | ''She drove on the Nevsky with me long before she ever saw you; did n''t you,_ barynya_? |
| 18165 | And besides, if the fellow- man obstinately refuses to be helped by others, how are we to do our duty by him? |
| 18165 | And how about the Shaker men? |
| 18165 | And how are people to get about, how are burdens to be carried, how is the day long enough, if one goes everywhere on foot? |
| 18165 | And the Russian churches? |
| 18165 | And what are cabmen for, then? |
| 18165 | And why not? |
| 18165 | And, in the mean while, tell me what has inspired you with the taste to dress like a peasant?" |
| 18165 | Are the Shaker women, of whom you approve, also to invent crosses? |
| 18165 | Are the horses to be left to people the earth, along with the animals which we now eat and which we must give up eating?" |
| 18165 | Are we to adopt all vices of the lower classes? |
| 18165 | Are you sure the parcel is for me?" |
| 18165 | Ask a resident, whether prince or peasant,"How many churches are there in''Holy Moscow town''?" |
| 18165 | But suppose I were to ask it?" |
| 18165 | Can not the priest find sponsors for you?" |
| 18165 | Count Tolstoy''s latest book at that time was"What to Do?" |
| 18165 | Did I mean the little books with the colored covers and the pictures on the outside?" |
| 18165 | Did any of you think to buy a cake for her? |
| 18165 | Did n''t you eat it? |
| 18165 | Did they recognize the count? |
| 18165 | Did you ever see an acrobat try that trick? |
| 18165 | Do n''t you see that there are only four horses?" |
| 18165 | Do n''t you think that the author supports me?" |
| 18165 | Do you get it? |
| 18165 | Do you want four-- six-- eight? |
| 18165 | Does it matter about the form or the language? |
| 18165 | Had I been rightly informed, or ought I to have gone to them in spite of warning? |
| 18165 | Had he read the count''s''Tales''?" |
| 18165 | Had such a need arisen? |
| 18165 | He insisted that it was wrong, inconsistent, in the same strain as he discusses the subject of his writings in"What to Do?" |
| 18165 | How are foreigners, who pride themselves on never giving more than the value of an article, to protect themselves? |
| 18165 | How can I present a picture of all the variations in those sweet, busy- idle days? |
| 18165 | How could any one have the conscience to rob an honest, innocent man like you so dreadfully?" |
| 18165 | How could you work for others, if they persisted in following out the other half of your doctrine and doing everything for themselves? |
| 18165 | How?" |
| 18165 | I am quite sure,"he added,"that I need not explain to you, though you are a foreigner, where the Hours and the Sacrament come in the service?" |
| 18165 | I asked him how he would get along without knowing the language? |
| 18165 | I asked,"Did he know Count Tolstoy?" |
| 18165 | I confess that I should have liked to be present at this bit of-- surgery, shall I call it? |
| 18165 | If no one wanted those documents, what were_ we_ to do with them? |
| 18165 | Is n''t it pretty soon?'' |
| 18165 | Is the captain''s signature worth so little? |
| 18165 | Is the likeness very strong?" |
| 18165 | No pocket of any sex would tolerate them, and we had been given to understand by veracious(?) |
| 18165 | Roofs improvised from scraps of canvas protect the delicate(?) |
| 18165 | Shall I be believed if I say that I found it in custom- house officers and gendarmes? |
| 18165 | She argued that some one, the publisher at least, would make money out of it; then why not let his own family have the profit, as was just? |
| 18165 | She had not been there ten minutes before she began to ask:''When does the Sacrament come? |
| 18165 | So I proceeded to inquire,"What will a peasant do in case of an execution?" |
| 18165 | Tell me, which of them all would you ask to visit you, if you wished a blessing?" |
| 18165 | The answer invariably is,"Who knows? |
| 18165 | The burden of it was:"Why? |
| 18165 | The scene of that play is laid on the banks of the Volga, in just such a garden; why should it not have been on this spot? |
| 18165 | This was the crazy Balakhin mentioned in"What to Do?" |
| 18165 | Wear them as breastplates( folded), or as garments( full size)? |
| 18165 | What did Yakoff Petrovitch mean by telling me that a plain street gown was the proper thing to wear? |
| 18165 | What is the remedy for this state of things? |
| 18165 | What is their duty in the matter of invoking suffering?" |
| 18165 | What testimony?" |
| 18165 | What would you like?" |
| 18165 | What, then, in your opinion, should a woman who has missed that fate do?" |
| 18165 | When we reached the point where the name of the publication was to be inserted, he paused to ask:"How many would you like?" |
| 18165 | Whereabouts are we, and how much have we missed?" |
| 18165 | Why should he wish to do that, really, even if they were not Orthodox? |
| 18165 | Why the twenty- five kopeks? |
| 18165 | Why was it thus with them, and not with us? |
| 18165 | Why?" |
| 18165 | Will it be believed? |
| 18165 | _ Why_ did n''t you eat it?" |
| 18165 | why should n''t I?" |
| 46242 | And how many polks are in a division? |
| 46242 | And then the bad weather will set in; and, with sogers aboord, I''d like to know what we can do? |
| 46242 | And those ships in Balaklava? |
| 46242 | Are we in the Redan? |
| 46242 | But why so? |
| 46242 | Could they not have got away? |
| 46242 | Have you not got your bayonets? |
| 46242 | How are our fellows getting on? |
| 46242 | How many rotas are in a polk? |
| 46242 | I can live like a duke here-- I can smoke my cigar, and drink my glass of wine, and what could a duke do more? |
| 46242 | If that is so, why have you 31 on your buttons? |
| 46242 | No, what was it? |
| 46242 | Shindy, was there? 46242 So they''re all gone?" |
| 46242 | The leg of mutton, and look sharp, do you hear? 46242 The wawt, zur?" |
| 46242 | Then you have n''t got anything to sell now? |
| 46242 | What Colonel? |
| 46242 | What are you waiting here for? |
| 46242 | What does a rota mean? |
| 46242 | What does the number 31 on your buttons mean? |
| 46242 | What does the number 7 on your cap, with P after it, mean? |
| 46242 | What then? |
| 46242 | Where are all these horses going to? |
| 46242 | Who are those officers in blue, with grey, yellow, and red facing''s-- apparently men of rank, with stars and crowns and lace on their collars? |
| 46242 | Who commands it? |
| 46242 | Who''s that drunken fellow-- an old soldier in the odd uniform, with medals on his breast? |
| 46242 | Why, dear me, sir, do n''t you know those are harmless civilians, who neither wish to shoot any one or to be shot at themselves? 46242 Will it answer, if he takes on himself the responsibility?" |
| 46242 | _ We have n''t any._"Have you any medicine for fever? 46242 --And what are the Allies doing?" |
| 46242 | And can the country now heal the wound in that proud spirit? |
| 46242 | And what were we doing? |
| 46242 | Are you likely to be in a better state two hours hence, and, above all, where are the men to live in the meantime?" |
| 46242 | Are"pigs"a national institution, to be maintained at any cost? |
| 46242 | But was the plan of battle good? |
| 46242 | But what was that grey mass on the plain, which seemed settled down upon it almost without life or motion? |
| 46242 | But who were the devastators? |
| 46242 | But why not? |
| 46242 | But why were they in tents? |
| 46242 | By the beard of the Prophet, for the sake of your father''s father, tell me, O English Lord, how is it? |
| 46242 | Can any one tell us why the army was_ compelled_ to eat salt pork? |
| 46242 | Can anything be more suggestive of county magistracy and poor- laws, and order and peace, than stone- breaking? |
| 46242 | Can you let me have any medicines?" |
| 46242 | Could that bloody mass of clothing and white bones ever have been a human being, or that burnt black mass of flesh have ever held a human soul? |
| 46242 | Did any one want to find General Canrobert? |
| 46242 | Did he? |
| 46242 | Do people at home know how many bayonets the British army could muster? |
| 46242 | Do they believe we had 25,000, after all our reinforcements? |
| 46242 | Do they tell lies?" |
| 46242 | Does the reader wonder why we were all so fond of jam? |
| 46242 | For the question is, in whose hand lies the power of releasing one or more of the parties from all or any of these stipulations? |
| 46242 | Has the army here, the lines of trenches, and Sebastopol itself, gone clean off the face of the earth? |
| 46242 | He said in a quiet voice,"Will any one be kind enough to lift me off my horse?" |
| 46242 | How else was it that we seldom found either dead or wounded officers on the ground? |
| 46242 | If a benighted Turk, riding homewards, was encountered by a picquet of the Light Division, he answered the challenge of"Who goes there?" |
| 46242 | If it resulted from their position on our right, why did they take the left when we halted before Sebastopol? |
| 46242 | Indeed, one officer said to another, as soon as he recovered breath and could speak,"I say, that''s a nice sort of thing, is it not? |
| 46242 | Is it to be understood that English military surgeons are not entitled to any honorary reward? |
| 46242 | Is it true that England gives them reason for indulging in their notorious tendencies? |
| 46242 | Is the flesh of the bull a part of the constitution? |
| 46242 | Is there nothing to be done? |
| 46242 | Is this enchantment? |
| 46242 | No decorations? |
| 46242 | No order of merit? |
| 46242 | No recognition of their services? |
| 46242 | Now, good Public, do you know what one ration consists of? |
| 46242 | Now, is it the Horse- Guards which enforces all this scrivenery? |
| 46242 | Of what use were they perpetually_ in transitu_ between Eupatoria and the Col of Balaklava, or on the tramp between Kamara and Phoros? |
| 46242 | Oh, why is this, Chelebee? |
| 46242 | One officer asked a private confidentially in English how many men we sent into the trenches? |
| 46242 | One stout elderly Russian of rank asked one of our officers,"How are you off for food?" |
| 46242 | Shall I state how many returned? |
| 46242 | Some of them asked our officers"when we were coming in to take the place?" |
| 46242 | Still what was to be done? |
| 46242 | Taxes!--what is the man talking about? |
| 46242 | The Colonel dipped his hand into the bag, took out a small parcel, and said,"John Smith, you were Alma, Balaklava, and Inkerman?" |
| 46242 | The Russians challenged,"Qui va là?" |
| 46242 | The Staff- officer says that"the army was under arms soon after 6 A.M., and on the move"Where?--a mile or two too much inland? |
| 46242 | The report of a gun rings through the woods and covers, and an honest English shout of"What have you hit, Jack?" |
| 46242 | The wounded, did I say? |
| 46242 | The_ Emperor_ then signalled--"What do you mean?" |
| 46242 | Then, why did not the English move? |
| 46242 | Three hours passed!--Where on earth can I be? |
| 46242 | Was he a Dolon or not? |
| 46242 | Was it old Turenne who said,"More battles were won by the spade than by the musket?" |
| 46242 | Was not that"confounded Naval Brigade, that gets all the praise,"an eyesore and a stumbling- block to the ill- used Siege Train? |
| 46242 | Well might a Turkish boatman ask,"Oh, why is this? |
| 46242 | Were not planks better than scaling- ladders? |
| 46242 | Were not the Infantry tickled with ironical mirth at the notion that the Cavalry had done anything? |
| 46242 | Were we five hours marching six miles? |
| 46242 | What Engineer had recovered the mortal wounds inflicted on him by lazy soldiers who would not work in the trenches? |
| 46242 | What do you think I''ll get for them?" |
| 46242 | What good had we done by all this expenditure of shot, and shell, and powder? |
| 46242 | What is to be done? |
| 46242 | What man of the Line or Guards was not"down"on the Engineers? |
| 46242 | What on earth could he think of them? |
| 46242 | What shall be said if much of that cost can be shown to have been a gratuitous outlay of time and money? |
| 46242 | What was to be done? |
| 46242 | What were we doing for five hours? |
| 46242 | What would old Benbow or grim old Cloudesley Shovell have thought of it all? |
| 46242 | When Lord Lucan received the order from Captain Nolan, and had read it, he asked, we are told,"Where are we to advance to?" |
| 46242 | Where at this period was the English post- office? |
| 46242 | Where did the English general live? |
| 46242 | Where was the hospital for sick soldiers? |
| 46242 | Where were the huts which had been sent out to them? |
| 46242 | Where were the offerings of our kind country- men and country- women, and the donations from our ducal parks? |
| 46242 | Where were the supports? |
| 46242 | Where''s the bugler to call them back?" |
| 46242 | Who can tell how many lives were wasted which ought to have been saved to the country, to friends, to an honoured old age? |
| 46242 | Who could have hoaxed them so cruelly? |
| 46242 | Who told the Russians what the intentions of our chiefs were? |
| 46242 | Who will not look with respect on the tombs of these poor soldiers, and who does not feel envy for the lot of men so honoured? |
| 46242 | Who will venture to publish our despatches? |
| 46242 | Who would let the inmates of that desolate cottage in Picardy, or Gascony, or Anjou, know of their bereavement? |
| 46242 | Why could not Government have been a little more liberal in the matter of candles? |
| 46242 | Why not let him have a decoration, were it only a bit of iron with the words''Trenches before Sebastopol''engraved upon it? |
| 46242 | Why should not vacancies in regiments out here be filled up from regiments stationed elsewhere? |
| 46242 | Why was Kars allowed to fall, and why was Omar Pasha sent to Asia Minor so late in the year?" |
| 46242 | Why was this the only meat except beef that was served out? |
| 46242 | Would it have been possible to have concealed and slurred over our failures? |
| 46242 | You do n''t mean to say you did n''t hear it?" |
| 46242 | [ 9] It seems to have been a sort of passion with the French to be"the first"to do everything-- or was it a passion with our generals to be second? |
| 46242 | [ Sidenote: WAS IT THE CZAR?] |
| 46242 | _ Suppositos incedimus ignes._ What part of the camp was safe after such a catastrophe? |
| 46242 | a felt helmet with a spike in it and brass binding-- a red frock with black braid-- a big horse-- a cavalry man, eh?" |
| 46242 | and can such an arrangement be binding when the public good demands a different course? |
| 46242 | here''s another-- what''s he? |
| 46242 | is there a theatrical company here? |
| 46242 | others"when we thought of going away?" |
| 46242 | wo n''t you come and relieve the young officer?" |
| 11980 | ''And what is your doctrine?'' 11980 ''How then did you escape?'' |
| 11980 | ''How?'' 11980 ''Is that not so?'' |
| 11980 | ''No money?'' 11980 ''What did you say?'' |
| 11980 | ''What happens to me when I die?'' 11980 ''What is this?'' |
| 11980 | ''What lie is this?'' 11980 ''Where are we going?'' |
| 11980 | ''Who under heaven were these people?'' 11980 ''Would you like to buy a little wooden hut and some land?'' |
| 11980 | And Death? |
| 11980 | And five hundred thousand roubles? |
| 11980 | And the Japanese? |
| 11980 | And you''ve been happy ever since? |
| 11980 | And you? |
| 11980 | Are we going? |
| 11980 | Are you a beggar or a customer? |
| 11980 | But how big would it be? |
| 11980 | Can you put me up for the night? |
| 11980 | Did you believe him? |
| 11980 | Did you sleep well at the tavern? |
| 11980 | HAVE YOU A LIGHT HAND? |
| 11980 | Have you not realised that we have more than our share of the sun? 11980 Have you pilgrims then?" |
| 11980 | How did you come to think so seriously of life? |
| 11980 | How goes the war? |
| 11980 | How much the kerosinka? |
| 11980 | How much would you pay for such soup in Yalta, and with beef at fivepence a pound, too? |
| 11980 | Is Italy losing? |
| 11980 | Is it possible there is a child down by the waves? |
| 11980 | Is not the sea the very peacock of peacocks? |
| 11980 | May I spend the night here? |
| 11980 | Oh, how came you to hit on that expression? 11980 On what star did you begin? |
| 11980 | Ten miles, and two horses at a penny per horse per mile; is n''t that correct? |
| 11980 | The old woman? |
| 11980 | Was she evicted? |
| 11980 | What do you mean? |
| 11980 | What do you want? |
| 11980 | What fairs? |
| 11980 | What now? |
| 11980 | What size pictures would one buy for fifty roubles? |
| 11980 | What size would one be that cost five thousand roubles? |
| 11980 | What woman was this? |
| 11980 | What_ do_ you mean? |
| 11980 | Where, grandfather? |
| 11980 | Who could have expected that to be waiting outside for you? 11980 Who is there?" |
| 11980 | Who knows,they say,"but that we are the descendants of kings? |
| 11980 | Who was Socrates? |
| 11980 | Why sleep outside when man is ready to receive you? |
| 11980 | Why, do n''t you know? |
| 11980 | Would they? |
| 11980 | You understand? |
| 11980 | Your letters of identification? |
| 11980 | ''Am I already saved?'' |
| 11980 | ''And who might you be?'' |
| 11980 | ''And_ you_ use words, do you not? |
| 11980 | ''But where shall I go when I die? |
| 11980 | ''Fifty roubles?'' |
| 11980 | ''How do you dare to confuse labour and prayer? |
| 11980 | ''How is it you''re here?'' |
| 11980 | ''What do you ask for it?'' |
| 11980 | ''Whence comes man?'' |
| 11980 | ''Where does he go? |
| 11980 | A storm? |
| 11980 | And are we not all brothers? |
| 11980 | And some would say,"Is n''t she coming on?" |
| 11980 | And the reply of the angel sadder still,''Did you not know that life itself was a reward, a glory?''" |
| 11980 | And the tramp asks himself as he lies full length on the earth and looks up at the stars-- are you a yea- sayer? |
| 11980 | Are you not glad for all these impressions, these pictures and songs and perfumes? |
| 11980 | Besides, was there not the tavern close by? |
| 11980 | But how? |
| 11980 | But no, if he is one of us, why does he come clothed like a common man? |
| 11980 | But what am I saying? |
| 11980 | But what of the young who must of necessity go back? |
| 11980 | But what then? |
| 11980 | Can you answer it? |
| 11980 | Can_ you_ tell me? |
| 11980 | Did any one want soup? |
| 11980 | Did he sleep, did he dream? |
| 11980 | Do you mean it was the same woman who buried him?" |
| 11980 | Do you raise your face in wonder to the beauty of the world? |
| 11980 | Do you remember always the mystery and wonder that is in your fellow- man whom you meet upon the road? |
| 11980 | Do you say"Yes"to life? |
| 11980 | Do you stand with bare feet in sacred places? |
| 11980 | Does the wanderer love all things? |
| 11980 | Give it to the horses; a penny a mile for a horse, and how about the man, the cart, the harness? |
| 11980 | Had some family lived there and all died out? |
| 11980 | How can she lose?" |
| 11980 | How can we go back and live the dull round again? |
| 11980 | How could I be mother to fifty? |
| 11980 | How did he guess my need so well? |
| 11980 | How did people know? |
| 11980 | How long have you been upon the road, when did you set out, where is your home and why did you leave it?" |
| 11980 | If not, then how do you use your words?'' |
| 11980 | In a minute a little boy in a red shirt and a grey sheepskin hat came careering towards me, and called out:"Do you want a place to sleep? |
| 11980 | Is it possible we shall be stricken with woe, or immensely uplifted in joy because of the falling of a die? |
| 11980 | Is it too much?'' |
| 11980 | Is not the world''s place under our feet, for it is of earth and we of spirit?'' |
| 11980 | Is not this the same which you profess?'' |
| 11980 | Is there a way out for them? |
| 11980 | Is there a way out for_ her_? |
| 11980 | It has been urged,"You are unpracticable; you want a world of tramps-- how are you going to live?" |
| 11980 | Nevertheless we ask, standing without the gates of the sleeping city of winter,"Who of ye within the city are stepping forth unto the new adventure?" |
| 11980 | Several days I have looked at that bedstead and thought,''What the devil is that skeleton? |
| 11980 | Shall we not be as Lazarus is depicted in Browning''s story of him, spoiled for earth, having seen heaven? |
| 11980 | The Russian at home calls the returned pilgrim_ polu- svatoe_, a half- saint: does that perhaps mean that life is spoilt for him? |
| 11980 | The boy, all excitement, danced up to me and said,"Have you a light hand? |
| 11980 | The elder brother would probably refuse hospitality, saying,"You are not even my sinning brother, and shall I harbour_ you_?" |
| 11980 | They say to me lightly,''Your coach was a dream,''and I answer,''If so, then what before the dream?''" |
| 11980 | To- morrow... who could say what to- morrow would unfold? |
| 11980 | V THE QUESTION OF THE SCEPTIC"That''s all very well, but do n''t you often get bored?" |
| 11980 | V"HAVE YOU A LIGHT HAND?" |
| 11980 | V. HIS CONVERSION"''But your religion?'' |
| 11980 | VII THE MESSAGE FROM THE HERMIT The question remains,"Who is the tramp?" |
| 11980 | Was it a remembrance of the time before my entering into the coach? |
| 11980 | Was it some one else''s shelter? |
| 11980 | Was the house haunted? |
| 11980 | We cry inconsolably like lost children,''Oh, ye Gods, have ye forgotten us? |
| 11980 | What chance had fresh life coming into the tainted air of this stricken city-- this city where provision is made only for the unhealthy? |
| 11980 | What do all these people and this black city want to make of_ her_? |
| 11980 | What do you mean by religion?'' |
| 11980 | What do you mean?" |
| 11980 | What does it profit man that mankind goes on? |
| 11980 | What does the life of the human race mean?'' |
| 11980 | What if the wish were father to the thought? |
| 11980 | What if this conception be narrow, what if it be simply a generalisation, a generalisation from too few observations? |
| 11980 | What is a bachelor to do? |
| 11980 | What other narcotics have you, sleep- inducing?'' |
| 11980 | What remains to be said? |
| 11980 | What shall I be?'' |
| 11980 | What should I want with a little wooden hut?'' |
| 11980 | What then does the wanderer note? |
| 11980 | What was I? |
| 11980 | What was that something? |
| 11980 | What were we going to do when we got there, seeing that we had been to Jerusalem? |
| 11980 | What''s this?" |
| 11980 | When will that people wake up, eh?" |
| 11980 | Whence? |
| 11980 | Where are the thirty pieces of silver now? |
| 11980 | Where are they not? |
| 11980 | Where was I before I was born?'' |
| 11980 | Whither?'' |
| 11980 | Who even hopes to be happy? |
| 11980 | Who is it who cometh as a thief in the night?" |
| 11980 | Who is the walking person seen from the vantage ground of these pages? |
| 11980 | Who was I? |
| 11980 | Why ask? |
| 11980 | Why do you deny your brothers so? |
| 11980 | Why is that? |
| 11980 | Will you look on then and smile?" |
| 11980 | Will you take the post?'' |
| 11980 | Would it reach me? |
| 11980 | You are going southward? |
| 11980 | You said you slept in the fields, eh? |
| 11980 | and Shylock asks with true Jewish commercialism,"On what compulsion must I, tell me that?" |
| 11980 | or"Is n''t she developing?" |
| 43680 | And what are we going to do? 43680 At home, where is that strong authority for which the whole country is craving? |
| 43680 | But why speak of mothers, of orphaned children? 43680 Have you applied for admission to the Revolutionary Battalion?" |
| 43680 | How shall we drive? 43680 How will you decide? |
| 43680 | How? |
| 43680 | Is this your last word? |
| 43680 | May I come in? |
| 43680 | Wait a bit, my friend,boomed Yassny,"was it not you that came in to- day with the new lot... you were carrying a large placard? |
| 43680 | Well,he said,"if such are the orders, what''s to be done?" |
| 43680 | What is the meaning of this? 43680 What is your Company, I ask you?" |
| 43680 | What is your Company? |
| 43680 | What the devil does this mean? 43680 What will things be afterwards?" |
| 43680 | What? 43680 When will there be an end to all this? |
| 43680 | Where is the love of country, where is patriotism? 43680 Will you quail now? |
| 43680 | You? 43680 [ 64] What could I bring the men? |
| 43680 | ''Could the Armies resist an organised German offensive in their present condition, numerical and technical?'' |
| 43680 | ''What is the reason? |
| 43680 | ( a prayer in which the Emperor was mentioned)? |
| 43680 | ***** Afterwards? |
| 43680 | ***** What place did the Stavka occupy as a military and political factor of the Revolutionary period? |
| 43680 | ***** What, then, were these Army Organisations doing that were supposed to reconstruct"the freest Army in the world"? |
| 43680 | A great statesman and military leader had thus left the stage, whose virtue-- one of many-- was his implicit loyalty( or was it a defect?) |
| 43680 | A tall, stout soldier ascended the platform, and began speaking in a loud, hysterical voice:"Comrades, you have heard? |
| 43680 | Albov, have you not yet thought of suicide?" |
| 43680 | Alexeiev said:"Do I not give you a full share of the work? |
| 43680 | An animated conversation began on the usual anxious themes: how did matters stand with the land; would peace be concluded soon? |
| 43680 | And if not-- was it to be War? |
| 43680 | And we, who along with you have now carried our heavy cross into the fourth year of the War-- we are now to be regarded as your enemies? |
| 43680 | Are you ready for the advance and are you certain to be successful? |
| 43680 | Bearing in mind the ample material collected by the Stavka, Vinnichenko''s half- hearted confession to a French correspondent(?) |
| 43680 | Brussilov sometimes interrupted me and said with strong feeling:"Do you think that I am not disgusted at having constantly to wave the Red rag? |
| 43680 | But we, are we entitled not only to encourage them, but to take upon ourselves the decision?" |
| 43680 | But why did two or three thousand orthodox Russians, bred in the mystic rites of their faith, remain indifferent to such a sacrilege? |
| 43680 | But, most of all, with what words can one move men to face death when all their feelings are veiled by one feeling-- that of self- preservation? |
| 43680 | But_ over there_, was there an actual chance, or was everything being done in heroic desperation? |
| 43680 | Can it be that the Russian soldier is capable of informing the enemy of my arrival at the position?'' |
| 43680 | Could n''t they be rung up?" |
| 43680 | Could such a one sell himself? |
| 43680 | Could the Revolution give new birth to men or make them perfect? |
| 43680 | Did the_ cadres_ of the Commanding Officers really improve? |
| 43680 | Do you understand?" |
| 43680 | Does it hurt you much? |
| 43680 | Dost thou hear the whisper on their lips, from which thou hast driven the smile of joy for evermore? |
| 43680 | For two months I had worked like a slave and my outlook had widened, but had I achieved anything for the preservation of the Army? |
| 43680 | For whom should we pray at Divine Service? |
| 43680 | From whom? |
| 43680 | Good Heavens, what was the matter with these men, with the reasonable creature of God, with the Russian field- labourer? |
| 43680 | Have not these ideas left somewhat too deep traces in the minds, not so much perhaps of the popular masses as of their leaders? |
| 43680 | He glanced through a loop- hole and, starting back, asked nervously:"What is that?" |
| 43680 | He was dismissed by the Army Commander, and afterwards expressed to me his sincere astonishment:"Why had he been dismissed? |
| 43680 | How can I appeal to the soldiers to continue the War and to stay at the Front?" |
| 43680 | How can business be done when the Soviet and the licentious soldiery hold the Government pinioned? |
| 43680 | How could a real soldier, appealing to the sense of duty, to obedience and to a struggle for the Mother Country, compete with such demagogues? |
| 43680 | How have they dared to appoint him without my knowledge?" |
| 43680 | How many inconsolable mothers hast thou left? |
| 43680 | How many orphans hast thou made? |
| 43680 | I hope that you will back me?" |
| 43680 | I hope you will understand this? |
| 43680 | I lay, covered head and all by my cloak and, under a shower of oaths, tried to see things clearly:"What have I done to deserve this?" |
| 43680 | I turned to Markov:"What, my dear Professor, is this the end?" |
| 43680 | In April and May of 1917, in spite of our victory(?) |
| 43680 | In the course of a subsequent talk I had with one of the men, he said to me:"If there are to be no annexations, why do we want that hill top?" |
| 43680 | Is it because that, of the officers who led you in the beginning, there is not one left in the regiment who is not maimed?" |
| 43680 | Is it because we never sent you into action, but led you, bestrewing with officers''corpses the whole of the path covered by the regiment? |
| 43680 | Is it possible that we may now abandon the Allied cause and be false to our obligations? |
| 43680 | Is it the temporary Committee which created the Provisional Government, or is it the latter? |
| 43680 | Is it to be an offensive or a defensive campaign? |
| 43680 | Is that not the limit? |
| 43680 | Is this ignorance or triviality? |
| 43680 | Kerensky hesitated, but what about the support of the Commissars and Committees? |
| 43680 | Look here, Albov, you are not in a hurry, are you? |
| 43680 | Need we adduce further proofs? |
| 43680 | Now, General, may I rely on your support?" |
| 43680 | Of course, in so far as that Government submits to the will of the Soviets?... |
| 43680 | Perhaps you would like me to go for the doctor?" |
| 43680 | Savinkov''s persistent advice? |
| 43680 | Somebody asked Dragomirov:"How long do you think the war will last?" |
| 43680 | The oppressive isolation felt by the Minister of War after the conference of July 16th? |
| 43680 | The police( Militia? |
| 43680 | The question arises-- Is the Chancellor capable of solving them? |
| 43680 | The question was, when would it stop and upon whose head would it fall? |
| 43680 | The world has condemned them; but are all those who speak of the matter so unanimous and sincere in their condemnation? |
| 43680 | Then he remarked:"''Do you feel all the nightmare horror of this silence? |
| 43680 | Then why do n''t you thrust the bayonet into me? |
| 43680 | To make his exit from life? |
| 43680 | Trotsky explained this contradiction by saying that, owing to constant re- elections, the Soviets reflected the true(?) |
| 43680 | Was a mechanical change of personnel capable of killing a system which for many years had weakened the impulse for work and for self- improvement? |
| 43680 | Was it not for the War Ministry to hasten the death by a resolute and hopeless surgical operation?" |
| 43680 | Was it possible to combat this unconcealed care for their own safety? |
| 43680 | Was it, perhaps, that he used the wrong words, or was not able to say what he meant? |
| 43680 | Was that playing the part of a Don Quixote? |
| 43680 | Was the Central Committee of the Soviet invested with actual power? |
| 43680 | Was the oath a sham? |
| 43680 | Was work in common possible in these circumstances? |
| 43680 | We were thus confronted with a crucial question: SHOULD THE RUSSIAN ARMY ADVANCE? |
| 43680 | Were the conscious leaders of the Soviet really convinced that such a danger existed, or were they fanning this unfounded fear as a tactical move? |
| 43680 | What are you about, Lieutenant?" |
| 43680 | What can I do? |
| 43680 | What can you do? |
| 43680 | What does it matter that the masses of the Army accepted the new order and the new Constitution sincerely, honestly and with enthusiasm? |
| 43680 | What had become of the former animation, friendly talk, healthy laughter and torrents of reminiscences of a stormy, hard, but glorious life of war? |
| 43680 | What happened? |
| 43680 | What have I done to them? |
| 43680 | What if the advance were to disclose our impotence? |
| 43680 | What is it all about? |
| 43680 | What is the Government going to do? |
| 43680 | What methods did the Democracy have recourse to? |
| 43680 | What more could I tell them? |
| 43680 | What of the famous"Freedom from Bondage"of the soldier? |
| 43680 | What province are you from?" |
| 43680 | What should I say to the officers, sorrowfully and patiently awaiting the end of the regular and merciless lingering death of the Army? |
| 43680 | What then? |
| 43680 | What was that? |
| 43680 | What was the condition of the Russian Army at the outbreak of the Revolution? |
| 43680 | What was the impression produced by that fateful Order? |
| 43680 | What was the result? |
| 43680 | What would happen were there no Soviet? |
| 43680 | What would the future bring? |
| 43680 | What, then, was the effect of the Mother Country idea upon the conscience of the old Army? |
| 43680 | When have you had time to get worn out, poor fellow?" |
| 43680 | Whence? |
| 43680 | Where do these men get so much brutality, so much baseness?" |
| 43680 | Where is that powerful authority which would force every citizen to do his duty honestly by the Motherland? |
| 43680 | Whether it was a German one or whether our own people did not recognise him-- who knows?" |
| 43680 | Who knows? |
| 43680 | Who were the members of the Committees? |
| 43680 | Why should we allow ourselves to be maimed?" |
| 43680 | Why? |
| 43680 | Will it be possible to level the same accusation against you? |
| 43680 | Will it find enough strength and boldness to burst the fetters placed on it by the Bolshevistic Soviet? |
| 43680 | Will the Russian Army allow this to happen? |
| 43680 | Will the Russian people remain steadfast, or will the Defeatist tendencies prevail? |
| 43680 | Will the torrent swell? |
| 43680 | Will we not thrust this insolent foe out of our country and let the diplomatists conclude peace afterwards, with annexations or without them? |
| 43680 | Will you kindly restore it? |
| 43680 | Would it not appear that had the order been changed in which the links had stood in that chain salvation might have ensued? |
| 43680 | Would you come to the door, enemy machine- guns permitting?" |
| 43680 | Would you then agree to work with me again?" |
| 43680 | You had better report it or else, who knows?" |
| 43680 | You? |
| 43680 | force every citizen to do his duty honestly by the Motherland? |
| 43680 | force every citizen to do his duty honestly by the Motherland?" |
| 56772 | And a constitution would change nothing of this? |
| 56772 | And all that is done by Plehve? |
| 56772 | And are not these conservative students dangerous to their fellows? |
| 56772 | And can your press do nothing to better this general corruption? |
| 56772 | And does no one succeed in representing to him conditions as they are? |
| 56772 | And has that occurred? |
| 56772 | And if he does know it? 56772 And intelligent business men believe that?" |
| 56772 | And is not that true? |
| 56772 | And is there no possibility of organizing the revolution so that it shall not rage senselessly? |
| 56772 | And no one is angry at open injustice? |
| 56772 | And so your highness can see no deliverance? |
| 56772 | And this other régime? |
| 56772 | And what becomes, then, of the millions that our ministry of finance is spending to secure good will in the papers towards our finances? |
| 56772 | And what do you mean by''camarilla''? |
| 56772 | And what is the substance of your wishes, to put it into a very few words? |
| 56772 | And what was the purpose of it? |
| 56772 | And what, in your excellency''s opinion, should be done to help the country? |
| 56772 | And who will succeed him? |
| 56772 | And why is nothing done for the uplifting of his economic insight? |
| 56772 | And would the country really be helped thereby? |
| 56772 | And you consider the next generation to be thoroughly impregnated with ideas of independence? |
| 56772 | Are not the police sufficient to maintain order? |
| 56772 | Are the professors sufficiently in sympathy with each other for the formation of a university esprit de corps? |
| 56772 | Are there prospects of this concession? |
| 56772 | Are you really going to Russia? |
| 56772 | At what conventions? |
| 56772 | Believe it? 56772 But could not Sänger defend his measures?" |
| 56772 | But from what do the special student disturbances about which we hear so much proceed? 56772 But if one of your editors should make an attempt to enter upon the discussion of this question, would you permit it?" |
| 56772 | But in what respect is the present régime so essentially different from the preceding ones that such a fermentation could arise? 56772 Do you consider that the real, intrinsic value?" |
| 56772 | Does not this evil have a moral effect on the impartial administration of justice also? |
| 56772 | Gottfried Keller? 56772 Has not the industrial development in the western part of the country strengthened the national finances?" |
| 56772 | Has the Czar really anything to fear should the police relax its vigilance? |
| 56772 | He? 56772 Hence also Plehve?" |
| 56772 | How so? |
| 56772 | How so? |
| 56772 | How the latter? |
| 56772 | How''s that? |
| 56772 | How? 56772 How? |
| 56772 | In what respect, then, does your excellency distinguish yourself as a Conservative from the so- called Liberals? 56772 Is it possible?" |
| 56772 | Is not that a paradox, your excellency? |
| 56772 | Is there no mistake possible here? |
| 56772 | Is this a serious argument? |
| 56772 | Is this, then, only the chronic discontent present in western Europe as well as in Russia, or is it now acute? |
| 56772 | May I have a fuller explanation? |
| 56772 | Mikhailovski? |
| 56772 | On account of the industrial policy? |
| 56772 | Ought not the Jews to take that into account and not meddle with politics? |
| 56772 | Permanently? 56772 That is also, then, one of the causes of the ill- treatment of the Jews?" |
| 56772 | Then Sänger found himself in a rather dubious position mainly as a philo- Semite? |
| 56772 | Then ambition is also an influence? |
| 56772 | Then it is stronger than usual? |
| 56772 | Then your highness believes that the Kishinef massacres were arranged by the police? |
| 56772 | Was anything accomplished by this inquest? |
| 56772 | Was it better, then, formerly? |
| 56772 | We must wish, then, for Russia''s sake, that the catastrophe come as quickly as possible? |
| 56772 | What are you thinking of-- under our present régime? 56772 What difference does that make? |
| 56772 | What do you mean by''everything''? |
| 56772 | What have you heard? |
| 56772 | What is injustice? 56772 What is the cause of this?" |
| 56772 | What is the condition of socialism in Germany? |
| 56772 | What is the nature of the reforms in question? |
| 56772 | What system? |
| 56772 | What was the cause of these conflicts? |
| 56772 | What will then be the end? |
| 56772 | When did this affair take place? |
| 56772 | Who are these bulwarks of this general policy? |
| 56772 | Who is to give redress? |
| 56772 | Who knows, count? 56772 Who struck them out?" |
| 56772 | Why do you speak of the knout and the Cossacks? |
| 56772 | Why does your excellency believe that Sänger had become so tired of his position? |
| 56772 | Why is that so illogical? 56772 Why particularly in Germany?" |
| 56772 | Will you permit me to make a note of this list? |
| 56772 | Will your paper support the absurd efforts which are being made towards the introduction of a constitution? |
| 56772 | You are going, then, without prejudices? |
| 56772 | You do not know? 56772 You mean, in plain speech, are not our judges to be bought? |
| 56772 | You mean, then, that he was paid for the judgment that was given in the interest of the millionaires? |
| 56772 | You say even grand- dukes? |
| 56772 | You say that Plehve is not Russian? |
| 56772 | You say that the students held a demonstration for the Japanese? 56772 You say the people are immoral?" |
| 56772 | Your excellency of course refers to the idea that Plehve intimidates the Czar by threats of revolution? |
| 56772 | Your excellency, should I commit an indiscretion by publishing our conversation just as it took place? |
| 56772 | Your judges are not, then, independent and irremovable? |
| 56772 | A meeting with Tolstoï is such an incomparable privilege for me-- will fate permit me thoroughly to enjoy the moments? |
| 56772 | A near friend? |
| 56772 | And do you consider Russia a really insolvent country, that can not really pay its debts, and can not bear the burdens of modern national life?" |
| 56772 | And one might also ask, What west European has so studied the forest like Schischkin, the sea like Aiwasowsky, the river and the wind like Levitan? |
| 56772 | And the Czar? |
| 56772 | And you say that the students are not in sympathy with that?" |
| 56772 | Are not the rulers themselves Russians? |
| 56772 | Are the advantages of an all- controlling police system in any degree proportionate to its innumerable economic disadvantages? |
| 56772 | Are they not caused by troubles in the universities?" |
| 56772 | Are you not in a position to break through the iron ring of the bureaucrats, and to tell the Czar the truth about the men who possess his confidence?" |
| 56772 | But I should like to know whether you will oppose the impertinences of the Jews with the necessary vigor?" |
| 56772 | But for a Russian? |
| 56772 | But how are exhortations of warning to reach the Czar''s ear? |
| 56772 | But is this the first time that quacks have ruined a Hercules that has fallen into their hands? |
| 56772 | But it could also be interpreted,"Madmen, what are you doing? |
| 56772 | But perhaps Warsaw is not really Russia? |
| 56772 | But what could single individuals do against the abuses of centuries? |
| 56772 | But what would be the end of such teaching? |
| 56772 | But when? |
| 56772 | Can there be no change of the fatal policy that is ruining the country?" |
| 56772 | Certainly not in criticism?" |
| 56772 | Do you consider that an encouragement for patriotic endeavor? |
| 56772 | Do you not know what you have here?" |
| 56772 | Do you not see that this is the terrible, relentless sea into which you would step?" |
| 56772 | Do you suppose that a comedy of justice like that of Kishinef can be played with independent judges? |
| 56772 | Do you then think that the banks belong to the Salvation Army, to imagine that they should renounce such a transaction?" |
| 56772 | FOOTNOTE:[ 15]"Why do I seek the way so ardently, if not that I might show it to my brothers?" |
| 56772 | Had he permitted me to publish the conversation with his name? |
| 56772 | Has he no longer any influence?" |
| 56772 | Have you heard of the great steel affair?" |
| 56772 | How about his friend Bryan? |
| 56772 | How are these co- ordinated? |
| 56772 | How can they be so cruel to their own flesh?" |
| 56772 | How can you say, then, that they may be augmented at will by new issues?" |
| 56772 | How can you speak of an independent press, when under the pressure of the high finance of the Russian and German governments?" |
| 56772 | How could I have responded? |
| 56772 | How is it that the student body, which comes principally from this upper stratum, is so laden with revolutionary tendencies?" |
| 56772 | I closed my interview, as in all cases, with the question,"What hope is there for the future?" |
| 56772 | If public opinion at that time had so much power for evil, why does it not have power now, and power for good? |
| 56772 | If you should to- day suffer heavy loss by robbery or burglary, what should you do?" |
| 56772 | In and of itself, what was the thing that had happened? |
| 56772 | Is Russia a state or a prison? |
| 56772 | Is it a modern Tauris full of terrors to the stranger? |
| 56772 | Is it a_ Libre Parole_ or_ Intransigeant_? |
| 56772 | Is it nationalistic or clerical? |
| 56772 | Is it the banker''s business to initiate the public into the secret sciences? |
| 56772 | Is it worth while, then, to bear the evil repute that Russia is a prison where no man''s life or property is secure? |
| 56772 | Is not his tardy religious bent, perhaps, mere hypochondria, fear of the next world, preparation for death? |
| 56772 | Is the position of judge not an honorable one?" |
| 56772 | May not his apostleship be merely a self- suggested idea obstinately clung to? |
| 56772 | Of what importance is here an inoffensive minister of instruction, or culture, as he is called in your country?" |
| 56772 | Or are we still in central Europe? |
| 56772 | Shall I tell you? |
| 56772 | Should it be mentioned here that St. Petersburg has its"millionnaya"( millionaire''s street)? |
| 56772 | Surely the people have not been spoiled by anything better?" |
| 56772 | Suvorin would not dare to come here; and why not? |
| 56772 | The Jewish question will long remain unsolved, for whom could the Russian officials bleed if not the tormented, worried, defenceless Jews? |
| 56772 | The issue of the deposited securities to their owners is delayed?" |
| 56772 | There will come a reaction, and the hand of every man will be against every other....""Then your excellency is opposed to the freedom of the press?" |
| 56772 | What an old, sad melody is this to which these bare- footed men keep step as they struggle up along the stream? |
| 56772 | What did he write?" |
| 56772 | What does a stranger usually do in the evening when he visits a strange city? |
| 56772 | What is religion? |
| 56772 | What is the meaning of it? |
| 56772 | What is to us, in contrast, the Kremlin, this sanctuary of half- Asiatic barbarians? |
| 56772 | What more can be said than has already been said by Milyukov, by Lanin, by Leroy- Beaulieu? |
| 56772 | What other monarch, moreover, must not consider his own interests, which can not be identical with those of Russia? |
| 56772 | What shall we say of the works of Ostade, Teniers, Wouwerman, Pottes, and Ruysdael? |
| 56772 | What was the cause of it? |
| 56772 | What wonder if the Russian feels himself here on holy ground and would prefer to put off his shoes when he treads it? |
| 56772 | What wrecked the attempts of well- intentioned autocrats at reform? |
| 56772 | Whence, then, can help come? |
| 56772 | Whenever I come to a town I ask myself, Why was it built here and not elsewhere? |
| 56772 | Where is he? |
| 56772 | Where was the"people"among the thousands sitting in the theatre, or eddying up and down the colossal halls? |
| 56772 | Who is Suvorin? |
| 56772 | Who knows where the awe of eternity touches him deeper, before St. Peter''s or before this Church of the Deliverer? |
| 56772 | Who was he? |
| 56772 | Why are such enormous sacrifices made at all for the sake of an undertaking injurious in itself and, moreover, impossible of execution? |
| 56772 | Why is all this? |
| 56772 | Why is this the case? |
| 56772 | Why is your literary product so low?" |
| 56772 | Why should they not become revolutionaries? |
| 56772 | Why? |
| 56772 | Yet what was there to prevent the despot from abandoning the work that he had begun? |
| 56772 | be paid where the business is as bad as it is? |
| 56772 | so you have no influential connections?'' |
| 54507 | ''Has Igor told you everything?'' 54507 ''What else?'' |
| 54507 | ''Why do you disturb him?'' 54507 ''You know my feelings?'' |
| 54507 | And do you often see the Tsar? |
| 54507 | And does your husband sing well? |
| 54507 | And yourself,I asked,"what political party do you belong to?" |
| 54507 | Are you not ashamed of yourself,I exclaimed,"to risk a life so precious to Russia? |
| 54507 | As long as these views are propagated, what matter under whose name? 54507 But do you want their death?" |
| 54507 | But tell me, why do you want to know all these things? |
| 54507 | But what are the practical measures you recommend and which you apply? |
| 54507 | But what is the matter? |
| 54507 | But what matter that? |
| 54507 | But who will write a preface? |
| 54507 | Can it be possible? |
| 54507 | Do n''t you see? |
| 54507 | Do you not hear what I say? |
| 54507 | Have you had tragic experiences of that kind? |
| 54507 | I think I am right,said the Royal Hostess, to{ 79} one of the latter, smiling graciously,"you are the successor of your predecessor?" |
| 54507 | Is it a riot? 54507 Is it not a sin,"exclaimed I,"a great sin? |
| 54507 | Is it not all the same? |
| 54507 | Is it not strange that no one will deny my right, revolver in hand, to defend my watch or my money against the assaults of a burglar? 54507 Is it not wonderful?" |
| 54507 | Is it true,she said,"that the bear is playing at your house every Thursday?" |
| 54507 | Then what does he do? |
| 54507 | They have no schools, no roads, no universities, no seminaries: and suddenly you want to plunge them into Parliamentary subtleties? |
| 54507 | Well but, how do you manage to tame him? 54507 What chance have they to repent? |
| 54507 | What does it all mean? |
| 54507 | What is the meaning of this? 54507 What is the part of the Government in all these reforms?" |
| 54507 | What keeps your societies together? 54507 What was his object in doing so? |
| 54507 | What was that? 54507 What will England do?" |
| 54507 | Why can we not publish your thoughts ourselves? |
| 54507 | Will you do so? |
| 54507 | Wo n''t you let me in? |
| 54507 | You dislike the idea of attending the State funeral? 54507 ''How can you disturb us?'' 54507 ''Would you not like to see your mother? 54507 A few minutes later I heard the same voice say:Madame, are you a Greek Orthodox?" |
| 54507 | After all, would a man prefer to work in a quicksilver mine or to be hanged? |
| 54507 | All the special rules in connection with insubordination or any other misdemeanour, if only the much discussed refusal to work? |
| 54507 | And Bentham, and the great socialist Lassalle himself? |
| 54507 | And further, how have we placed the comparatively few to whom we have seen fit to give employment? |
| 54507 | And how did you deal with this difficulty? |
| 54507 | And what was it? |
| 54507 | And when one says admiration, does not one mean in reality love? |
| 54507 | Are the years of''48 and''49 meaningless or forgotten? |
| 54507 | Are they to be blamed for measures taken with the object of saving their country from dismemberment? |
| 54507 | Are you not afraid that I shall kill you too?" |
| 54507 | Are you not pleased?" |
| 54507 | Are you smiling? |
| 54507 | Are you then married?" |
| 54507 | As to her generosity, can anybody doubt that? |
| 54507 | As to the future, with Great Britain, France, Russia, and Italy working hand in hand, what has Europe to fear? |
| 54507 | But as English people we ask, who has helped us to understand"Brightest Russia"--the Russia in arms to- day? |
| 54507 | But have I not been cruelly punished for being young and stupid? |
| 54507 | But was he not right? |
| 54507 | But what vehicle do you think they took? |
| 54507 | But who can use the word"only,"when it is followed by thousands of killed? |
| 54507 | But who could act? |
| 54507 | But who else was to do it? |
| 54507 | Can anybody, not only in Russia but even abroad, doubt his{ 119} talent? |
| 54507 | Can you not count me your spiritual mother, and confide in me, when I come to you and sit with you and listen to all you have to say?'' |
| 54507 | Could anyone be kinder or show greater political courage? |
| 54507 | Could anything be more cruel and mischievous? |
| 54507 | Do n''t you go to church every Sunday, and do n''t you pray for her?'' |
| 54507 | Do you know one of the results of such practical application of sympathy? |
| 54507 | Do you know that I can sell your correspondence to an editor or a publisher? |
| 54507 | Do you know that he actually refuses to play at my palace on any terms?" |
| 54507 | Do you realise that the simplest change, the taking away or adding of one button or one inch of braid represents an enormous sum of money? |
| 54507 | Does anything remain of the famous Treaty of Paris? |
| 54507 | For how long is the pledge binding? |
| 54507 | For what right have we to endanger the public safety by allowing crime to reign unchecked? |
| 54507 | Had not the emancipation of forty- eight millions of Serfs been a good enough example to justify this hope? |
| 54507 | Has not Jesus Christ Himself ordered to propagate His teaching, and counselled us to love our enemies? |
| 54507 | Have I to chastise that captivating_ mangeur de Coeurs_? |
| 54507 | Have they not reached you?'' |
| 54507 | Have you ever been to the St. Isaac''s Cathedral in Petrograd at Easter? |
| 54507 | He always( was it simply out of modesty?) |
| 54507 | How are you to manifest Christian compassion and love to sinners when they are so quickly and definitely disposed of? |
| 54507 | How can they look after your{ 88} affairs when they can not speak either English or French?" |
| 54507 | How can you repay him? |
| 54507 | How can you safely enter upon it without some attention to the researches and the opinions of the writers who have examined it? |
| 54507 | How could I hesitate for a moment to send him a challenge?" |
| 54507 | How did you get to prison?'' |
| 54507 | How many families are driven to misery; how many crimes are committed only through alcohol? |
| 54507 | How shall I escape from my dilemma? |
| 54507 | I asked myself: is that Gretchen going to complain to me of her Faust? |
| 54507 | I have often wondered what"a political agitator"would appear like to the writer of this paragraph, and why should he not be musical? |
| 54507 | I protested, when Mikoulin had left the room;"why should you give them to someone else?" |
| 54507 | I think my vehement indignation amused the old Chancellor, and he said:"Well, well, but do you know that people actually think that you are my agent?" |
| 54507 | I was deeply touched when he enquired of those about him:"Why does not Madame Novikoff come to see me?" |
| 54507 | If that were the crime, who were the criminals? |
| 54507 | If these visions are actually granted, would it not be a great consolation and a reward for deep affection? |
| 54507 | In our Russia that is seething with talented inventors? |
| 54507 | Is it possible that during several years of good harvest you could not have provided for one bad year? |
| 54507 | Is it rational, I ventured to ask in the year 1886, to awaken general indignation in a country like Russia, which could be so useful as an ally? |
| 54507 | Is it really not worth having? |
| 54507 | Is not my impartiality praiseworthy? |
| 54507 | Is not this the action of a wicked foe? |
| 54507 | Is there any republic in the world which has carried out such great reforms as those of Alexander II? |
| 54507 | Is this really so? |
| 54507 | It happened in the year 1884, during the great political crisis, when one heard on all sides the query:''Will he return to power?'' |
| 54507 | It is also an alliance of economic interests, of pockets, may I say? |
| 54507 | It is easy to weep with those who weep, but when one''s own heart is sad and suffering, is it so easy to rejoice with those that rejoice? |
| 54507 | Madame, do you by chance mean Rubinstein? |
| 54507 | Men, almost without exception, maintain silence on this point, so why should I not try to investigate the matter? |
| 54507 | My mother interrupted him by asking,"Would you prefer to belong to Austria?" |
| 54507 | No men devoted to Russia,{ 276} to her honour and her might? |
| 54507 | No men? |
| 54507 | Of course it is foolish, but what does it matter? |
| 54507 | Once I asked one of my guests:"How many roubles a year do you spend on drink? |
| 54507 | Suddenly I heard a voice:"Madame,"asked my young driver,"are you a Russian?" |
| 54507 | Surely, I said to myself, something might be done? |
| 54507 | This letter is reproduced in my pamphlet:"_ Christ or Moses? |
| 54507 | Veuillez bien m''accorder indulgence et me permettre de venir un autre jour pour vous renouveler mes très respectueux hommages? |
| 54507 | Was anything ever so bewildering? |
| 54507 | Was it not a miraculous rapidity? |
| 54507 | Was it not dreadful? |
| 54507 | Was it not in the Emperor Nicholas''s time that the present social ideas originated? |
| 54507 | Was this a prophecy, or merely a remark uttered with the object of blinding his contemporaries to his real purpose? |
| 54507 | We can not at will take a new father or mother and break all the ties God and nature have given us-- why then a new nationality? |
| 54507 | Well, what would have been the probable conduct under these circumstances of the Government of this country?" |
| 54507 | Were Pouschkin and Lermontoff, those victims of offended honour, really such fools? |
| 54507 | Were not Peter the Great and the Great Catherine Autocrats? |
| 54507 | Were they not often accompanied with drinking? |
| 54507 | What are the probable consequences which would then have{ 160} occurred? |
| 54507 | What are the tenets of Panslavism? |
| 54507 | What are we doing with our prisoners of war? |
| 54507 | What can you do in return? |
| 54507 | What greater link can there be between two nations than that each should speak the other''s language? |
| 54507 | What is the matter?" |
| 54507 | What other characteristic is common to them all? |
| 54507 | What pledges? |
| 54507 | What then was the Emperor''s proposal? |
| 54507 | What was I to do? |
| 54507 | What would my friend do? |
| 54507 | Where does she live?'' |
| 54507 | Where is one to draw the line between necessaries and luxuries? |
| 54507 | Where would Europe be now if it were not for the Russian armies, and where would the Russian armies be but for the English Navy? |
| 54507 | Who knows what would have happened had the brave and glorious Skobeleff been one of the led instead of the idolised leader? |
| 54507 | Why can one not abolish it entirely in the whole world? |
| 54507 | Why should you spoil them, and make them unfit for their usual life, by accustoming them to unnecessary luxuries? |
| 54507 | Why then am I to be denied the right to defend my honour in the same fashion? |
| 54507 | Why was it that Russia was not as in 1876? |
| 54507 | Why was it that the Armenians at Sassoun were left as sheep before the butcher? |
| 54507 | Why was it that the Sultan and his Pashas felt themselves perfectly free to issue what order they pleased for the massacre of the poor Armenians? |
| 54507 | With this Convention still in force, who could blame Russia for not joining in operations against Abdul? |
| 54507 | do they want drink?" |
| 54507 | etc., from developing the greatest possible progress in literature? |
| 54507 | what is one to do with such farm labourers as that? |
| 54507 | { 109}"Do n''t you understand?" |
| 54507 | { 110} Why was this? |
| 54507 | { 228}"Why have you come here alone?" |
| 27743 | All very well,says the reader;"but how are we to get into the private houses?" |
| 27743 | And do they? |
| 27743 | And what may that be? |
| 27743 | Are we to wait on the chance of''probably''? |
| 27743 | Are you glad to hear_ Pekka_--do you care for him just a little? |
| 27743 | But did you order it? |
| 27743 | But does not a strong wind cause them to ring? |
| 27743 | But is there no other boat for us? |
| 27743 | But you said you were sent here for only three years''punishment-- how does it happen you have remained for nearly four? |
| 27743 | But,we returned,"although you learnt it when children, how have you managed to keep it up as men?" |
| 27743 | Can an ant bath be had here? |
| 27743 | Certainly not; how did such an idea get into your head? |
| 27743 | Could they see the strange ladies? |
| 27743 | Could we manage with such meagre accommodation? |
| 27743 | Darling, it is not true you care for_ Armas Merikanto_? |
| 27743 | Did many friends come to the wedding? |
| 27743 | Did they do anything very remarkable or strange? |
| 27743 | Did you think Finland was cold, then? |
| 27743 | Do you generally stay long in the same house in Finland? |
| 27743 | Do you mean to say you have no opportunity of keeping up the knowledge you already possess? |
| 27743 | Do you mix much with the Russians? |
| 27743 | Do you speak English? |
| 27743 | Do you think so? |
| 27743 | Does the train leave at two? |
| 27743 | For what? |
| 27743 | Got what-- the measles or scarlet fever? |
| 27743 | Have you heard of horseless carriages and flying machines? |
| 27743 | How do they put them out? |
| 27743 | How do you become monks? |
| 27743 | How do you know I am going to_ Punkaharju_? |
| 27743 | How long were they engaged? |
| 27743 | How old are those trees we see, twenty or thirty years? |
| 27743 | How were we two Englishwomen to travel alone through the very centre of Finland, where no one spoke a word except his own language? |
| 27743 | Is it in their worship that they should sleep with their heads towards the sun? |
| 27743 | Is n''t it amusing? |
| 27743 | Is this fog usual? |
| 27743 | It is rather strong,said she pensively;"shall we put it outside?" |
| 27743 | Might they see where they slept? |
| 27743 | Mine? |
| 27743 | No,was the reply;"what do you mean?" |
| 27743 | Of course,she replied,"or what should we do at the_ lukukinkerit_?" |
| 27743 | Pardon, Madame, but how much hot water do you want for grog? |
| 27743 | Really? |
| 27743 | Then shall I bring you cream to eat it as pudding? |
| 27743 | Very much,I replied, smiling at the question;"but why do you ask?" |
| 27743 | Was it not very strange at first? |
| 27743 | Were you so very much horrified? |
| 27743 | What are those dead leaves? |
| 27743 | What do they mean? |
| 27743 | What do you mean? 27743 What does your title of_ Magister_ mean?" |
| 27743 | What for? |
| 27743 | What is that? |
| 27743 | What is your business? |
| 27743 | What shall we do with it? |
| 27743 | What sort of news? |
| 27743 | What? 27743 When may I come to see you, darling-- my little wife?" |
| 27743 | Where are they going? |
| 27743 | Where are we to live? |
| 27743 | Where is our dinner? |
| 27743 | Where is the bride? |
| 27743 | Where is_ Hangö_, what is_ Hangö_--why_ Hangö_? |
| 27743 | Why, what is that? 27743 Why, why,"in distress we asked him,"do you stay here?" |
| 27743 | Why? |
| 27743 | Why? |
| 27743 | Will you be my wife? |
| 27743 | Will you come with me,_ Annuka_, fair maid of_ Åbo_? |
| 27743 | Will you come with me,_ Annuka_, fair maid of_ Åbo_? |
| 27743 | Will you come with me,_ Annuka_, fair maid of_ Åbo_? |
| 27743 | Will you come with me,_ Annuka_, fair maid of_ Åbo_? |
| 27743 | Will you have some sweetbread? |
| 27743 | Will you tell me some news, kind ladies? |
| 27743 | Yes, yes, that is it,replied Grandpapa;"where is it?" |
| 27743 | You are lost, in fact? |
| 27743 | You do n''t mean to say that enormous parcel contains soap? |
| 27743 | You like me-- you love me? |
| 27743 | You speak English? |
| 27743 | You think so? 27743 You think so?" |
| 27743 | You? 27743 _ Straxt, straxt_,"is smilingly answered, but the landlord does not move-- not he; what is to be gained by being in a hurry? |
| 27743 | _ You_ are not English? |
| 27743 | ( Perhaps the ladies talk German?) |
| 27743 | A spirit? |
| 27743 | A whole fowl?" |
| 27743 | Again the priest asks:"Where is the bride?" |
| 27743 | And why on earth did they sleep among the ghosts and hobgoblins? |
| 27743 | Are the dogs howling and the children running away? |
| 27743 | Are they not there to mortify the flesh and learn economy? |
| 27743 | Are we not all the better for looking on such scenes? |
| 27743 | As we left_ Holy Island_, it was past ten o''clock at night, and yet what could that be? |
| 27743 | Beds did we say? |
| 27743 | But again I must ask why you inquire?" |
| 27743 | But surely you do n''t think of taking one?" |
| 27743 | But were they excited? |
| 27743 | But who could be angry with such innocent people? |
| 27743 | By this time my sister was awake, and lazily asking"What is the matter?" |
| 27743 | Can there be such a thing as a musical train? |
| 27743 | Could any more delightful household be imagined? |
| 27743 | Could anything be better? |
| 27743 | Could it be? |
| 27743 | Could we in England not learn one of our many needed lessons in education from Finland on this point? |
| 27743 | Dare we own the cause? |
| 27743 | Did I shiver at the thought? |
| 27743 | Did this intrusion make me feel shy? |
| 27743 | Does he enjoy_ Hymylä_? |
| 27743 | Doffing his black cloth cap, he said--"Vielleicht die Damen sprechen deutsch?" |
| 27743 | Had he gone to sleep or lost his senses, or was he paralysed with fatigue? |
| 27743 | Had they actually come from London? |
| 27743 | Hardly believing in his total innocence of the outer world, we asked--"Does no one ever really see a paper in this monastery?" |
| 27743 | Have you ever travelled with a melon? |
| 27743 | How could it be, where there are none of the luxuries of these vast cities? |
| 27743 | How shall we describe it? |
| 27743 | I had come to try a strange Finnish bath which interested me-- why should they not come to see a queer Englishwoman if it amused them? |
| 27743 | If such a possibility existed, could it be looked for anywhere else than in a unanimous and national feeling? |
| 27743 | Is it that they hide their feelings, or is it that they have none to conceal? |
| 27743 | Is it the fierce sun of their country that has burned them so black?" |
| 27743 | Is such a declension not enough to strike terror to the stoutest heart? |
| 27743 | Joy, he heard the voice of_ Ilma_ in answer, and said,"Is it you, dear one? |
| 27743 | Ken taistelut ne kaikki voi kertoilla kansan tään, Kun sota laaksoissamme soi ja halla nälän tuskat toi? |
| 27743 | Kind reader, have you ever been driven in a_ Black Maria_? |
| 27743 | Masters of the piscatorial art, does not envy enter your souls? |
| 27743 | Mit''oisi maassa armaampaa, mit''oisi kalliimpaa? |
| 27743 | O child of Finland, wherefore fly Thy noble Fatherland? |
| 27743 | One can not be long in Finland during the summer without being asked"Are you going to_ Hangö_?" |
| 27743 | Our kind Finnish friend gave the order, and the pretty girl repeated--"_ Hjortron?_ But there is no meat." |
| 27743 | Second, did we say? |
| 27743 | See, did we say? |
| 27743 | Silent and alone, with head bent sadly down, she stood in the middle of the room till asked if she were willing"To marry this man?" |
| 27743 | Suffocated with heat and dust, we were ourselves bumping along in a springless_ kärra_, when our attention was first arrested by-- what? |
| 27743 | Supposing the occupants of an English train were suddenly called upon to sing"God save the King,"what would be the result? |
| 27743 | Surely you would not provide half a fowl for four people, would you?" |
| 27743 | THY LAND[B](_ English_) O child of Finland, wherefore fly Thy noble Fatherland? |
| 27743 | That is, we believe, the name of the cumbersome carriage which conveys prisoners from one police- station to another, or to their prison home? |
| 27743 | The footsteps came on apace, and we held our breath, thinking our time had come; but was it? |
| 27743 | The kindly lady laughed heartily as she said,"Mais, Madame, est- ce que possible que vous vouliez prendre un de ces bains?" |
| 27743 | Then, in a hushed voice and with subdued breath they asked--"Are they mad?" |
| 27743 | They ask not only"Where do you come from?" |
| 27743 | Was it not enough to fill our hearts with despair? |
| 27743 | Was it really true that two Englishwomen were staying there as the papers stated? |
| 27743 | Was it that they seldom saw a play, or was it that the generally phlegmatic Finn once roused is really intensely emotional? |
| 27743 | Was it? |
| 27743 | Was there any possibility for Finland to maintain its home policy, or, indeed, its national life? |
| 27743 | We asked the old dame if she could sing? |
| 27743 | Were we criminals without our knowledge, and was this our jailor who stood gesticulating, and scowling, and waving his arms about in excitement? |
| 27743 | What about germ disease in such a place, O ye bacteriologists? |
| 27743 | What are they; what do you mean? |
| 27743 | What could it mean? |
| 27743 | What did they do? |
| 27743 | What form would it take? |
| 27743 | What is the want of raiment when compared with the wants of the soul? |
| 27743 | What on earth had the poor_ Magister_ done that he should be jumped on in this way? |
| 27743 | What pen could describe more faithfully the ways of the people? |
| 27743 | What was a_ muurahais kylpy_ like? |
| 27743 | What was to be done? |
| 27743 | What were they like? |
| 27743 | What were those packets of brown paper securely fixed to the top of long poles all over that field, we wondered? |
| 27743 | Where were the folk who had lived beside them, cooked beneath them, and spent their lives of grief or joy? |
| 27743 | Who could have expected to find in the interior of Finland a peasant landlord who was also an English linguist? |
| 27743 | Who could have imagined such a day would turn to such a night? |
| 27743 | Why are the northern peoples so honest, the southern peoples such thieves? |
| 27743 | Why should not something of the kind be allowed in our parks from seven to twelve in the evening at a charge of a few pence? |
| 27743 | Why, oh why, had I not persevered with the sketches, instead of only doing one at our midnight haven of rest in the_ Uleåborg_ rapids? |
| 27743 | Why? |
| 27743 | Wildly we were tearing past the banks, when, lo!--what was that? |
| 27743 | Will any one deny that the Finlander is inquisitive? |
| 27743 | Will nothing move these people? |
| 27743 | With all their sufferings and their hardships, can one be surprised that they take life seriously? |
| 27743 | Would he regain his footing all that distance below? |
| 27743 | Would he waste his life among those men, so few of whom were, socially or intellectually, his equals, or would he return to the world? |
| 27743 | Would the phantom be man or woman-- tall or short-- an assassin, murderer, or victim? |

| 27743 | could it be? |
| 27743 | we asked on one occasion;"how can so few families require so much milk?" |
| 27743 | what was that? |
| 27743 | where is the smartness, the upright bearing, the stately tread and general air of cleanliness one expects in a soldier? |
| 27743 | where, was the much- discussed chicken? |
| 27743 | why fidget? |
| 1349 | * On being asked for their opinion, they replied vaguely,How should we know? |
| 1349 | An inn? |
| 1349 | And does harmony generally reign in peasant households? |
| 1349 | And what did we Russians do all this time? 1349 And what is a Feldsher?" |
| 1349 | And what is the effect of an inhibition? |
| 1349 | And what kind of faith have they? |
| 1349 | And when will there be some? |
| 1349 | And why do you wish to know? |
| 1349 | And why has he not been taken there? |
| 1349 | And you always bring home a big pile of money with you? |
| 1349 | Are our brothers dying, and do your wives and children remain without a bit of bread? |
| 1349 | Are the Molokanye, then, very bad people? |
| 1349 | Are you, too, a Nihilist? |
| 1349 | Do we require Manchuria? |
| 1349 | Do you hear that, ye orthodox? 1349 Hot, very hot?" |
| 1349 | How can that be? 1349 How could he be taken? |
| 1349 | How shall I tell you? |
| 1349 | Is it better than the faith of the Molokanye? |
| 1349 | Is it not rather dangerous,I inquired,"to take the law thus into your own hands? |
| 1349 | Is it to the east, or the west? |
| 1349 | Is it very far away? |
| 1349 | Ivanofka? |
| 1349 | Now? |
| 1349 | So you have an assistant, have you? |
| 1349 | The Zemstvo is the new local administration, is it not? |
| 1349 | The town,he was wo nt to say on such occasions,"has been entrusted to me by his Majesty, and you dare to talk to me of the law? |
| 1349 | Then you must expose yourself to all kinds of extortion? |
| 1349 | Very well, you shall have four,says the leading spirit to Ivan; and then, turning to the crowd, inquires,"Shall it be so?" |
| 1349 | We listened to these words with deep reverence, and gave a tacit consent; and what was the result? 1349 What do you say, little father?" |
| 1349 | What have you done with the Son of God? 1349 What is that? |
| 1349 | What is the use of applying to the justices? 1349 What preparations have we made,"they asked,"for the struggle with civilisation, which now sends its forces against us? |
| 1349 | What''s this? |
| 1349 | What, pray, could they work at? |
| 1349 | Where have you taken us to? |
| 1349 | Where is that country? |

| 1349 | And then? |
| 1349 | And to these reproaches what could they reply? |
| 1349 | And what have you done? |
| 1349 | And what is done with all the money that is taken from them? |
| 1349 | And what is the nature of the process? |

| 1349 | But the Emperor? |
| 1349 | But what does it prove? |
| 1349 | But what does the word"retreat"mean in this case? |
| 1349 | But what has all this to do, it may be asked, with the aforementioned Volkerwanderung, or migration of peoples, during the Dark Ages? |
| 1349 | But what kind of service? |
| 1349 | But what of their Panslavist aspirations? |

| 1349 | How came it that for two or three years no voice was raised and no protest made even against the rhetorical exaggerations of the new- born liberalism? |
| 1349 | How can she remain in the place after her husband was killed in a duel by a brother officer? |
| 1349 | How could agricultural or industrial progress be made without free labour? |
| 1349 | How could the Government take active measures for the spread of national education when it had no direct control over one- half of the peasantry? |
| 1349 | How could this be explained except by the radical defects of that system which had been long practised with such inflexible perseverance? |
| 1349 | How did this important change take place, and how is it to be explained? |
| 1349 | How far have they succeeded in making the transition from serfage to free labour, and what revenues do they now derive from their estates? |
| 1349 | How have they acted, for instance, towards the Zemstvo? |
| 1349 | How many?" |
| 1349 | How was that possible? |
| 1349 | How, it may be asked, did a work of this sort find its way to such a place? |
| 1349 | How, then, does the Commune distribute the land? |
| 1349 | How, then, the reader may ask, is an issue to be found out of the present imbroglio? |
| 1349 | I enquire of him when my case is likely to come on, and receive the laconic answer,''How should I know?'' |
| 1349 | If it took three years for the preparatory investigation of a district and a half, how many years will be required for eleven districts? |
| 1349 | If the peasant was indolent and careless even under strict supervision, what would he become when no longer under the authority of a master? |
| 1349 | If the profits from farming were already small, what would they be when no one would work without wages? |
| 1349 | In answer to the question, Who effected this gigantic reform? |
| 1349 | In reply to his question,"Well, children, what do you want?" |
| 1349 | In spite of his efforts, Ivan could not get much further than the"Kak vam skazat''?" |
| 1349 | In such cases what is the jury to do? |
| 1349 | Instead of adopting this simple procedure, what does the Zemstvo do? |
| 1349 | Is annexation followed by assimilation, or do the new acquisitions retain their old character? |
| 1349 | Is history about to repeat itself, or are we on the eve of a cataclysm? |
| 1349 | Is it a mere barbarous lust of territorial aggrandisement, or is it some more reasonable motive? |
| 1349 | It is only too true, but who is to blame? |
| 1349 | Many a proprietor who had formerly vegetated in apathetic ease had to ask himself the question: How am I to gain a living? |
| 1349 | Might not such a class be created in Russia? |
| 1349 | Of the latter they would probably say,"Kto ikh znact?" |
| 1349 | On such occasions he may stand back a little from the crowd and say,"Well, orthodox, have you decided so?" |
| 1349 | Or will it impinge on our Indian frontier, directed by those who desire to avenge themselves on Japan''s ally for the reverses sustained in Manchuria? |
| 1349 | Other countries, it is said, have existed and thriven under free political institutions, and why not Russia? |
| 1349 | That field belongs to the landlord?" |
| 1349 | That the Russian people are morally inferior to the German? |
| 1349 | The important question for the general public is: How do the institutions work in the local conditions in which they are placed? |
| 1349 | The welfare of the agriculturists, who constitute nine- tenths of the whole population, was being ruthlessly sacrificed, and for what? |
| 1349 | Then arose, all along the line of the defeated, decimated revolutionists, the cry,"What is to be done?" |
| 1349 | Then why not take covered sledges on such occasions? |
| 1349 | Thereupon a more experienced orator comes forward and a characteristic conversation takes place:"Have we much land of our own, my friends?" |
| 1349 | Very soon English goods will no longer find foreign markets, and how will the hungry Proletariat then be fed? |
| 1349 | Was it not you who got drunk and beat your wife till she roused the whole village with her shrieking? |
| 1349 | Was it obtained from some other race, or is it indigenous? |
| 1349 | Was such a thing ever heard of? |
| 1349 | Was the movement, then, merely an outburst of childish petulance? |
| 1349 | What better opening could be desired? |
| 1349 | What do they expect from us in return? |
| 1349 | What emperor was this? |
| 1349 | What has it done for Russia in the past, and what is it doing in the present? |
| 1349 | What is Gogol?" |
| 1349 | What is Lermontoff? |
| 1349 | What is Pushkin? |
| 1349 | What is a Nihilist?" |
| 1349 | What is his relation to the Synod and to the Church in general? |
| 1349 | What is our famous poet Zhukofski? |
| 1349 | What is the secret of this expansive power? |
| 1349 | What is this Feldsher?" |
| 1349 | What is your opinion?" |
| 1349 | What then could they seek to defend? |
| 1349 | What will his first step be? |
| 1349 | What will it be in the future?" |
| 1349 | What would they become when this guidance and salutary restraint should be removed? |
| 1349 | What, then, are the relations between Church and State? |
| 1349 | What, then, was Emancipation? |
| 1349 | When a parish priest dies, what is to become of his wife and daughters?" |
| 1349 | When any great enterprise is projected, the first question is--"How will this new scheme affect the interests of the State?" |
| 1349 | Whence, then, was it derived? |
| 1349 | Where am I to get the money to pay a labourer?" |
| 1349 | Where could he get that money? |
| 1349 | Where was the well- considered plan of defence? |
| 1349 | Where were the representatives of the old regime, who had been so thoroughly imbued with the spirit of Nicholas? |
| 1349 | Who is to carry him? |
| 1349 | Who knows but my children may be very glad some day to have a share of the Commune land?" |
| 1349 | Who, then, are the Terrorists, who have assassinated so many great personages, including the Grand Duke Serge? |
| 1349 | Whom shall we choose?" |
| 1349 | Why are they bearing hardships and taking so much trouble? |
| 1349 | Why should he trouble himself with these new schemes, when he might live comfortably as he was? |
| 1349 | Why should his Reverence meddle with things that do n''t concern him?" |
| 1349 | Why should not Russia follow the example of England and Tuscany? |
| 1349 | Why should she be a pariah among the nations? |
| 1349 | Why, then, did the peasant often prefer the northern forests to the fertile Steppe where the land was already prepared for him? |
| 1349 | Will he not, if he have merely an ordinary moral character, consider himself justified in inventing a few falsehoods in order to effect his escape? |
| 1349 | Will it confine itself for some years to a process of infiltration in Mongolia and Northern Thibet, the line of least resistance? |
| 1349 | You are not in a hurry, I hope?" |
| 1349 | You can?" |
| 1349 | You have been on the Sheksna?" |
| 1349 | You know what these words mean?" |
| 1349 | retorts the woman, wandering from the subject in hand;"what did YOU do last parish fete? |
| 1349 | that is to say,"How am I to tell you?" |
| 38690 | And how old are you? |
| 38690 | And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then? 38690 But how can a man be locked up,"I said,"for begging in the name of Christ?" |
| 38690 | But why will nothing come of it? 38690 But,"said I,"if it were possible to find you a situation as a cook or something else?" |
| 38690 | Do you think there is any pleasure in knocking about, begging, if I can work? |
| 38690 | Have you parents? |
| 38690 | Have you parents? |
| 38690 | He repudiates science and art; he wishes to turn men back again to the savage state; why, then, should we listen to him, or argue with him? |
| 38690 | How many? |
| 38690 | How then? 38690 I have a mother,"she said at last;"but what''s that to you?" |
| 38690 | Is begging forbidden in Moscow, then? |
| 38690 | Is begging, then, forbidden? |
| 38690 | Is it hard work? |
| 38690 | Is this child yours? |
| 38690 | Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? 38690 Well; but what of that?" |
| 38690 | What difference does that make? |
| 38690 | What do you do for your living? |
| 38690 | What good will it do me? |
| 38690 | What is he doing with the pavement? |
| 38690 | What is your occupation? |
| 38690 | What of that? |
| 38690 | Where did it come from? |
| 38690 | Where did it come from? |
| 38690 | Where did it come from? |
| 38690 | Where shall I go? |
| 38690 | Why do you nurse him? |
| 38690 | Why left to die? 38690 Why should you go to look at the suffering of human beings whom you can not help?" |
| 38690 | Why? |
| 38690 | With what purpose? |
| 38690 | With what will only inquire,What Spirit?" |
| 38690 | A true mother will never say this:"You can not keep yourself from the desire to give them sweets, toys, to take them to the circus?" |
| 38690 | Adam? |
| 38690 | Advantageous for whom? |
| 38690 | All this comes simply from the strange idea about the"division of labour?" |
| 38690 | An engineer, a surgeon, a teacher, an artist, an author, seem by their very professions to be obliged to serve the people, but what do we see? |
| 38690 | And I began to reflect: Why is it that I felt so? |
| 38690 | And again I asked myself,"Why are there so many here, and in what do they differ from the country poor?" |
| 38690 | And as all this is rendered possible only by division of labour, how can we avoid countenancing it? |
| 38690 | And how about division of labour? |
| 38690 | And how many households are there in Russia alone? |
| 38690 | And if not we, who did? |
| 38690 | And industry and social undertakings?" |
| 38690 | And no given, to Catherine the Empress, or to the rebel Pugatchof? |
| 38690 | And now that I have gathered much of such money what am I to do with it? |
| 38690 | And this acknowledgment of men''s duty forms the essence of the third answer to the question,"What is to be done?" |
| 38690 | And what am I to do in order to satisfy the craving ingrafted in me for a personal and a common welfare? |
| 38690 | And what did he see there? |
| 38690 | And why should not men of art serve the people? |
| 38690 | And why should people carry away from the country into the towns the things that are necessary for country people,--flour, oats, horses, and cattle? |
| 38690 | And why, while living in town, am I unable to help the town poor?" |
| 38690 | And, indeed, what is my money, and how did I come by it? |
| 38690 | Are not these men compelled to do the will of their commanders under the threat of torture and death,--a threat often carried out? |
| 38690 | Are you a self- satisfied man of wealth, desiring to be gladdened by the sight of our need, to divert yourself in your idleness, and to mock at us? |
| 38690 | Before I repented, I had put the question thus:"What activity should I choose, I, the man with the education and talents I have acquired? |
| 38690 | Before this I was not able to answer the question,"What is to be done?" |
| 38690 | But by whom? |
| 38690 | But of the two who is the poorer? |
| 38690 | But surely you do n''t give them poisonous berries to eat, you do not let them go out alone in a boat, you do not take them to a café chantant? |
| 38690 | But the question is always put thus:"How can I, who have acquired so much fine information, how can I be useful to men with this my information?" |
| 38690 | But the question still remains, To whom is the power given, to Catherine the Empress, or to the rebel Pugatchof? |
| 38690 | But what are we to understand by the expression,"getting a living in town"? |
| 38690 | But what facts? |
| 38690 | But what mania could be more horrible than this? |
| 38690 | But what means the fact that some men and their children work, and other men and their children do not work? |
| 38690 | But who will make these boots and cotton- prints? |
| 38690 | But why are some caught and locked up, while others are let alone? |
| 38690 | But why do we dress, wash, and comb our hair ourselves? |
| 38690 | But why has it so happened? |
| 38690 | But with us it has come into fashion to say,"It is all very well in theory, but how would it be in practice?" |
| 38690 | By Pushkin, Dostoyevsky, Turgenief, L. Tolstoy? |
| 38690 | CHAPTER XII What did it all mean? |
| 38690 | CHAPTER XVIII What is the origin of money? |
| 38690 | CHAPTER XXII I always wonder at the often repeated words,"Yes, it is all true in theory, but how is it in practice?" |
| 38690 | CHAPTER XXV But what is to be done, then? |
| 38690 | CHAPTER XXXVIII What is to be done? |
| 38690 | Can coercing these men to join in the labour make them consider that the sacrifices are enforced for their own good? |
| 38690 | Can compelling these men to labour make it of advantage to them? |
| 38690 | Can we not see the changes which public opinion is now preparing? |
| 38690 | Could I possibly bring a lousy boy out of a den of depravity to my children? |
| 38690 | Do they, I ask, recognize the usefulness of this activity? |
| 38690 | Do you spend much of your time during the day with your children? |
| 38690 | Does not this good fortune come from the fact that man can not and will not see his own deformities? |
| 38690 | First of all, to the question,"What is to be done?" |
| 38690 | First, is it true that in every production only three agencies operate? |
| 38690 | Give me bodily food, and in return I will give you the forced to keep up these schools? |
| 38690 | He has money, and he pays it away for this work: what harm is there in it? |
| 38690 | He will only inquire,"What Spirit?" |
| 38690 | How can I compensate by this education and these talents for what I have been taking away from the people?" |
| 38690 | How can a man think that he ought to act in one way, and then do quite the reverse? |
| 38690 | How can a supposition about something quite impossible awaken an interest in any one? |
| 38690 | How can one help a man who does not tell all his circumstances? |
| 38690 | How could men have fallen into such astounding error? |
| 38690 | How could they have come to such a state that they can neither see nor hear nor understand with their heart what is so clear, obvious, and certain? |
| 38690 | How did this happen? |
| 38690 | How do these elders explain their cruelty? |
| 38690 | How is it, then, that all these acts of violence secure my liberty, and all this evil procures good?" |
| 38690 | How many are there of them?" |
| 38690 | How should we satisfy their artistic wants? |
| 38690 | How should we satisfy these claims? |
| 38690 | How then explain this? |
| 38690 | How would this young man call another who out of whim, changes his clean shirt and sends it to be washed by a woman old enough to be his mother? |
| 38690 | How, then, are our ladies to reform this woman and her daughter? |
| 38690 | How, then, can it be more advantageous for people? |
| 38690 | How, then, can the necessity of painful, oppressing work be advantageous for men? |
| 38690 | How, then, do rich people order their lives here in the country? |
| 38690 | I can not say, Why do you not eat hay when it is your necessary food? |
| 38690 | I compel none; I hire; what wrong is there in that?" |
| 38690 | I did not understand her, and asked again,--"What are your means of living?" |
| 38690 | I said to him,--"Is it really true that poor people are not allowed to ask for alms in Christ''s name?" |
| 38690 | I said to myself over and over again,"What is this town life and town misery? |
| 38690 | I stopped and asked him,--"What is the matter?" |
| 38690 | I wished to find out whether begging was really forbidden, and if so, why? |
| 38690 | If I gave a stranger in the street a ruble or twenty kopeks, why should I not give her also a ruble? |
| 38690 | If any man labour mentally five hours a day, he will do a vast amount of business; what do we, then, do during the remaining eleven hours? |
| 38690 | If it were not so, why, then, has the issue of this means of exchange always been the prerogative of the government? |
| 38690 | If the object were to make as many cotton- prints and pins as possible, it would be so; but the question is, how to make people happy? |
| 38690 | If the question had been put thus, after I had repented,"What can I, so ruined a man, do?" |
| 38690 | If they asked me what I had come for, what should I say? |
| 38690 | If we were to apply the second test and to ask, What is the chief motive of the activity of business- men? |
| 38690 | If, therefore, the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is your darkness? |
| 38690 | In answer to the question,"Is it necessary to organize this physical labour, to establish a society in a village upon this basis?" |
| 38690 | In answer to the question,"Would not this unusual labour be hurtful to health, which is necessary in order that I may serve men?" |
| 38690 | In what, then, does it consist? |
| 38690 | Indeed, what is that money which I give to the poor, and which the cook''s wife thought I was giving her? |
| 38690 | Is it a bad thing, according to the gospel, to clothe the naked, or to feed the hungry?" |
| 38690 | Is it more advantageous to make with all speed as many boots and cotton- prints as possible? |
| 38690 | Is it not, then, the same thing? |
| 38690 | Is it possible to help thus? |
| 38690 | Is it their fault?" |
| 38690 | Is not deprivation of land and tools enforced slavery? |
| 38690 | Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?" |
| 38690 | Is that charity? |
| 38690 | Is the utility of the arts and sciences recognized by all, or even by the majority, of working- people? |
| 38690 | Is this really so? |
| 38690 | It might be asked by some,"What is there so peculiarly important in abstractly discussing the meaning of money?" |
| 38690 | John the Baptist, in answer to men''s question"What shall we do then?" |
| 38690 | Make his coat as well as hew his wood? |
| 38690 | Men who from generation to generation have been making only pin- heads? |
| 38690 | Of what is this production composed? |
| 38690 | Of what, then, does this slavery consist? |
| 38690 | On what grounds do they believe this? |
| 38690 | On what grounds do they believe this? |
| 38690 | On what is this assurance based? |
| 38690 | Others have already begun, have done a little mischief; why should n''t I, too, do the same? |
| 38690 | Our position is a very difficult one, but why should we not look it in the face? |
| 38690 | Revised and Corrected Translation WHAT SHALL WE DO? |
| 38690 | Same prices as_ What is Religion?_"= On Life.="By LEO TOLSTOY. |
| 38690 | Science must answer the question, Why are some men deprived of land and tools while others possess both? |
| 38690 | She got up and slowly walked on.... Where? |
| 38690 | She looked fixedly beyond us, tried to snatch up her jacket behind her in order to cover her bony chest, and growled out like a dog,"What? |
| 38690 | She smiled and said,--"Who would take me with a yellow ticket? |
| 38690 | So it was with me; and therefore the second answer to the question,"What is to be done?" |
| 38690 | That may be so; but the given, to Catharine the Empress, or to the rebel Pugatchof? |
| 38690 | The ball goes on very merrily, may be, but how did it come to do so? |
| 38690 | The falseness and foolishness of our enterprise was now more apparent to me in looking at them; but were we not all in the same ridiculous position? |
| 38690 | The man looked up at me sharply, and said,"What business is that of yours?" |
| 38690 | Then said I, Lord, how long? |
| 38690 | Then said I, Lord, how long? |
| 38690 | Then what is money? |
| 38690 | There are so many things to be done, that one requires to know what is to be done in particular? |
| 38690 | Therefore, I think that every one who sincerely puts to himself the question,"What is to be done?" |
| 38690 | Therefore, a man can never answer the question,"What is to be done?" |
| 38690 | These are, then, the answers to the question,"What shall we do?" |
| 38690 | They they will be still poorer, and forced to keep up these schools? |
| 38690 | This means is that which John the Baptist recommended when he answered the question,"What shall we do then?" |
| 38690 | To an impartial man the question at once arises, What are you speaking about, then? |
| 38690 | To the CHAPTER XXII CHAPTER XXIX will only inquire,"What Spirit?" |
| 38690 | To the question, By whom is the usefulness of their activity recognized? |
| 38690 | To the question,"What have we to do?" |
| 38690 | To the question,"Would not this seem strange to those who had been accustomed to do all this for me?" |
| 38690 | Very often good young people, who sympathise with the negative part of my writings, put to me the question,"What must I do then? |
| 38690 | WHAT SHALL WE DO? |
| 38690 | WHAT SHALL WE DO? |
| 38690 | We ask: Why do persons who possess land and capital oppress those who possess neither? |
| 38690 | We did not do it, did we? |
| 38690 | We have invented telegraphs, telephones, phonographs, but what improvements have we made in the life of the people? |
| 38690 | What are the conditions under which nations always have money, and under what circumstances need nations not use money? |
| 38690 | What atonement? |
| 38690 | What can he see in me but one of those persons who have become possessed of something which should belong to him? |
| 38690 | What can it possibly signify if I wear a dirty shirt and make my cigarettes myself? |
| 38690 | What difference would it be if I should wear my shirt a week instead of a day, and make my cigarettes myself, or leave off smoking altogether? |
| 38690 | What does property mean? |
| 38690 | What does that Power, which created me, require from me and from each man? |
| 38690 | What does this really mean? |
| 38690 | What for? |
| 38690 | What have I, who have finished my study in the university or in some other high establishment,--what have I to do in order to be useful?" |
| 38690 | What if the working- people should speak thus? |
| 38690 | What is all this to me?" |
| 38690 | What is it that I really want? |
| 38690 | What is it, then, that confirms the theory that state activity is useful for humanity? |
| 38690 | What is there exactly to be done? |
| 38690 | What is to be done then? |
| 38690 | What is to be done? |
| 38690 | What is wrong in this? |
| 38690 | What must we do? |
| 38690 | What shall we do then? |
| 38690 | What should I have given in order to do as he had done? |
| 38690 | What then, do the words,"getting a living in town,"mean? |
| 38690 | What was this feeling, then? |
| 38690 | What was, then, the difference in our gifts? |
| 38690 | What would be the result? |
| 38690 | What, then, have we been teaching them? |
| 38690 | What, then, is property? |
| 38690 | What, then, should we intellectual labourers answer, if such simple and lawful claims were made upon us? |
| 38690 | What, then, will come out of this? |
| 38690 | What_ could_ I experience in my intercourse with these people but shame? |
| 38690 | Whence comes the great power of money, which strikes us all with a sense of its injustice and cruelty? |
| 38690 | Where should my old footman go, if I were to discharge him?" |
| 38690 | Wherein lies this power of threat? |
| 38690 | While of the sciences of theologians, and that of cabalists, nothing is left but empty words, why should we be so particularly fortunate? |
| 38690 | Who am I, I thought, that desire to better men''s condition? |
| 38690 | Who are you? |
| 38690 | Who cooks their dinner and what from? |
| 38690 | Who does not know human beings, especially women, who make a great virtue of cleanliness? |
| 38690 | Who does not know the various phrases of this cleanliness, which have no limit whatever when it is procured by the labour of others? |
| 38690 | Who instills moral principles into them? |
| 38690 | Who is she?" |
| 38690 | Who of us men and women will cure her of this false view of life? |
| 38690 | Who washes them? |
| 38690 | Whom do I harm? |
| 38690 | Why do I say"almost agreeable?" |
| 38690 | Why go to towns, then, to get what is to be had in the country? |
| 38690 | Why is it a useless business, if we help thousands, or even hundreds, of unhappy ones? |
| 38690 | Why is mankind an organism or something similar? |
| 38690 | Why is one man, by the means of money, to have dominion over others? |
| 38690 | Why not count claims on the rain and the rays of the sun? |
| 38690 | Why some facts and not others? |
