37470 | So you vainly imagine, my dear Karl, that you have your heel upon my neck, do you? 37470 Will you excuse me for ten minutes?" |
37470 | Are we prepared to meet it? |
37470 | But what could it be? |
37470 | But who, they wondered, would be the victim? |

36155 | But my wife? |
36155 | Have you tried to get on to Cromer by the other routes-- through Nottingham and King''s Lynn, or through Cambridge? |

36155 | Besides, look here,''he added,''what do you think that battalion was sent to Wickham Bishops for this morning?'' |

36155 | What then? |
36155 | What was now to happen? |
36155 | What was the Government doing? |
36155 | What will be its sequel?" |
36155 | What wonder, then, that I reported satisfactory progress, and reckoned-- too confidently, as it proved-- on a victory for the morrow? |
36155 | What would happen? |
36155 | When would it end? |

39588 | Have n''t you got any cotton wool for us to plug our ears with? |
39588 | How many kids are there under way that''ll never come to see their dads? |
39588 | I only wanted to ask if those are wild beasts, or if they''re what are called human beings you''ve torn to pieces there? |
39588 | Ready? |
39588 | So you wish me to stay behind, and the others to go and die for us? |
39588 | What others? |
39588 | What''s the good of that how- d''ye- do? 39588 Where are you going, Daddy?" |
39588 | ***** Where then lies the truth? |
39588 | ... who can tell whether he has been hit or not?... |
39588 | A murderer? |
39588 | Aim steadily-- straight for the chest.... Who is it really facing me? |
39588 | An enemy? |
39588 | And didst Thou not die for the whole human race? |
39588 | And do we cling so passionately to this life? |
39588 | And trembling, we lie down... and over our heads rushes something that howls for our flesh.... What''s the next thing? |
39588 | Are there nothing but dead abroad this night?... |
39588 | Are we going to attack? |
39588 | Are you not glad? |
39588 | But curt and sharp, as we knew it, the rasping note of command responds:"What the devil''s the matter with you? |
39588 | But what''s the good of that in these times of famine prices? |
39588 | But what''s to happen when hundreds of thousands of others have to go out sewing too? |
39588 | But what''s to happen when hundreds of thousands of others have to start a shop? |

39588 | Didst Thou not love mankind? |
39588 | Do n''t they envy us our sweet death? |
39588 | Do n''t you know me any more?" |
39588 | Dost Thou shudder at these sons of men? |

39588 | How can these two worlds be so terribly close to each other?... |
39588 | How far does his power reach? |
39588 | How long have I been running?... |
39588 | How will the sinister Emperor take it? |
39588 | I am distinctly conscious that my chest is reverberating like a tense sounding- board---- What on earth is that? |
39588 | I throw myself on my face, my rifle at the ready.... Why does the order fail to reach us? |
39588 | I wonder how many dead this war will ac count for? |
39588 | I wonder what is passing through their brains? |
39588 | If only every fifth man is left on the field, and if another fifth comes home invalided... what will its harvest amount to then? |
39588 | Is n''t our native land worth more than this scrap of life? |
39588 | Is the reason because we only have one life to lose? |
39588 | Or are both lies--"both deliberate conscious untruths, written under the inspiration of a social democratic lawyer?" |
39588 | Shall we have to retreat? |
39588 | The first line is lying shot down in the stubble... what''s the next thing? |
39588 | Then are we a breed of men other than our fathers? |
39588 | What do the strangers care? |
39588 | What does it matter even if the bullet finds its billet more surely? |

39588 | Where''s she to turn for money when the post- office savings book is finished? |
39588 | Where?--where?... |
39588 | Who was this Christ Who is to aid us, and Whose blood we drink? |
39588 | Why are you blinking at me with your bleared eyes, my brother? |
39588 | Why do I, all of a sudden, begin to shudder? |
39588 | Why do n''t I pull it through? |
39588 | Will they come on again? |
39588 | Wonder how many clips of cartridges am I going to get through? |
39588 | Wonder how the little chap is getting on? |
39588 | Wonder if any one else in barracks is lying wide- eyed and staring into the future? |
39588 | Wonder if it''ll last much longer? |
39588 | Wonder if she has chanced to be thinking of me? |
39588 | Wonder if there will be a bull''s- eye among them? |
39588 | Wonder whether my wife still goes on remembering her dead husband-- and my two kiddies-- whether they have already forgotten their father? |
39588 | Wonder whether she slept well to- night? |
39588 | Wonder whether the sun still goes on shining above us?--whether they still know how to laugh in the towns as we used to in our time? |
39588 | Wonder whether the war will last long? |
39588 | Wonder whether they have engines of such perfect precision on the other side? |
39588 | Yes, but what are we to fire at? |

60222 | Is not Paul the Apostle of Him who blessed the marriage feast of Cana? |
60222 | Is there danger? |
60222 | Is there no more to tell? |
60222 | Is this the first time you have felt like this? |
60222 | It is your advice? |
60222 | Must I, to- night? |
60222 | Once,she went on, hesitatingly,"the first time we went up in the_ Bladud_, you remember that night...?" |
60222 | See that, sir? 60222 See that?" |
60222 | So you''ve made the young lady''s acquaintance on the river? |
60222 | The storm had lasted long? |
60222 | Then he forbiddeth not to marry? |
60222 | Then why, O Lucius Flaccus, hast thou built here an altar to our Goddess Sul? |
60222 | We ca n''t get down? |
60222 | What about the Corps of Commissionaires? |
60222 | What about the old Household troops? |
60222 | What age would Renshaw be by this time? |
60222 | What do you mean? |
60222 | What does it mean? |
60222 | What would you do? 60222 What''s that?" |
60222 | What, I wonder, is the true philosophy of life? |
60222 | Where is he now-- is he ill, is he safe? |
60222 | Why do n''t you answer? 60222 Why not?" |
60222 | Why the devil do n''t you speak? 60222 Will the speaker favour us with the authority for her quotations?" |
60222 | Will you not cry out? |
60222 | Will you trust yourself to me? |
60222 | Would anyone like a sail? |
60222 | Yes, yes? |
60222 | You can steer? |
60222 | You mean your father? |
60222 | ***** How and why had this dastardly combined attack on England come to pass? |
60222 | And everywhere the question was asked:"Where is he? |
60222 | And if by any chance it should come to fighting at close quarters, had woman shown herself lacking in courage, or even in ferocity in such encounters? |
60222 | And now that the lifeless hand of the President had dropped the real sceptre, whose hand was to take it up? |
60222 | And what should she give in exchange for that submissive tender love of wife for husband which the Sacred Book declared to be the law of God? |
60222 | And, worse still, what might not she dare and do, as the champion and inciter of woman, if the head of the Government should die? |
60222 | But how''s the worm going to manage it?" |
60222 | But now? |
60222 | But what can we do without a leader in Parliament? |
60222 | But where was the leader of men? |
60222 | Call these creatures men? |
60222 | Come, man, what the deuce are you driving at?" |
60222 | Could these things be reconciled in the light of the revelation that had come to her? |
60222 | Did not a certain abbot of Iona go to Ireland to organise a movement against the custom of summoning women to join the standard and fight the enemy? |
60222 | Did not the crime of which she was convicted strike at the root of the religion of the people? |
60222 | Did you ever read how Balmerino faced the headsman after Culloden? |
60222 | Do you suppose we want an army of Amazons armed with lethal weapons to keep in order?" |
60222 | Does n''t that suggest an opportunity?" |
60222 | God in heaven, could it be truly that? |
60222 | Great God in heaven!--men call upon the name of God even when they profess to be agnostics-- could she be going to die? |
60222 | Had any confidential information been received from certain oriental visitors who, from time to time, had come to this country? |
60222 | Had he not sought by magical aid to soar aloft like the eagle, only to fall and be dashed to pieces on Minerva''s altar? |
60222 | He glanced at Wilton:"Ready?" |
60222 | He swore irritably, and then roared an inquiry:"Are you there? |
60222 | History has illustrated that over and over again?" |
60222 | How are we going to regulate international commerce? |
60222 | How shall he face the unfathomable whirlpool that yawns for the frail boat in which he is compelled to trust? |
60222 | I have read it, or did I dream it?" |
60222 | If he did not look out he would go there and get killed himself presently, and that would be a nice thing to happen, would n''t it? |
60222 | If one had repeated to most of these globe- trotters Gloster''s question in King Lear:"Dost thou know Dover?" |
60222 | In love with whom? |
60222 | Is it true he is still alive?" |
60222 | Is n''t nearly every man, in both services? |
60222 | It was her own voice that died away, and what was this mysterious sound-- rising from the valley with the mists that melted at the break of day? |
60222 | Linton, raising his own cap, turned towards the illustrious passenger:"Shall we start, sir?" |
60222 | Or could it be that they were running short of ammunition? |
60222 | She sighed and looked at him wistfully, then said appealingly:"You will come upstairs?" |
60222 | THE COUP D''ÉTAT? |
60222 | The voice that spake to the woman in the garden seemed to be speaking still:"What is this that thou hast done?" |
60222 | Then came another problem-- what was the right sort of motor? |
60222 | Then once more the Vice- President vehemently appealed to the audience:"Who will join the Amazons of England?" |
60222 | Then the Vice- President, in tones now piercing and tremulous, cried out:"Who will join the First Regiment of the Amazons of England?" |
60222 | There is something I can do for you in your trouble?" |
60222 | To what purpose do we expose our lives in war? |
60222 | To- morrow we''ll be just the same as ever, wo n''t we? |
60222 | Was it not an American, not an English, Admiral who had come to the rescue of the British colony? |
60222 | Was it the word"Forgive?" |
60222 | Was not blood thicker than water? |
60222 | Was the reign of woman to be inaugurated on new and bolder lines; or would man, in the nick of time, re- assert himself? |
60222 | Were not the American people our own kith and kin? |
60222 | Were they in for a lecture on geography? |
60222 | What about imports and exports? |
60222 | What could it mean? |
60222 | What did Wilton want? |
60222 | What did he say? |
60222 | What did these things betoken? |
60222 | What do you think? |
60222 | What is his good, and what is his evil? |
60222 | What is man in presence of the waterspout that towers from the ocean to the clouds? |
60222 | What is your advice?" |
60222 | What mad idea was this? |
60222 | What might not Lady Cat accomplish in the temporary absence of the President? |
60222 | What more natural than that most of the passengers should land and fill up the time by the inspection of the points of interest in the town? |
60222 | What of the Empire? |
60222 | What part of the coast is that down there?" |
60222 | What was he doing now? |
60222 | What was he trying to do? |
60222 | What was that silent log- like thing the waves were rolling yonder in the semi- darkness? |
60222 | What was there to be afraid of? |
60222 | What was this? |
60222 | What would it profit a woman to force herself out of her ordained place in the plan of creation? |
60222 | What''s the best air- ship that ever was built against a wind like this?" |
60222 | What''s this I hear about the Fort?" |
60222 | What, he vaguely wondered, was Wilton doing now? |
60222 | What, then, would be likely to limit her revenge or curb her ambition if an opportunity like the present could be made to serve her purpose? |
60222 | What? |
60222 | Where''s my book?" |
60222 | Which mine would be exploded first? |
60222 | Which shall it be?" |
60222 | Who are you?" |
60222 | Who can limit the life of the ego-- fix its beginning, or appoint its end?" |
60222 | Who could possibly credit such a tale? |
60222 | Who is it?" |
60222 | Who wants an air- ship calling for his parlour- maid at the attic window? |
60222 | Who wants thieves sailing up to his balcony? |
60222 | Who would dare to deny that women were as brave as men? |
60222 | Why did you do it?" |
60222 | Why do we defend our wives and sisters from a foreign enemy if Rome has tyrants who incite the people to violent and vindictive acts? |
60222 | Why had he not used it before? |
60222 | Why not?" |
60222 | Why not?" |
60222 | Why should you help me, unless I tell you all, everything-- everything, fully and frankly? |
60222 | Why was he sawing frantically, convulsively, at that tightened cord? |
60222 | Will you read this?" |
60222 | Would it be his turn next? |
60222 | You shall be very nice, and I shall forgive you, because, after all, I do love you, do n''t I?" |
60222 | and suppose, after all, poor Renshaw is dead?" |
60222 | exclaimed Herrick, springing to his feet,"do n''t you see one over yonder?" |
60222 | exclaimed the General,"were Thackeray and Dickens prejudiced? |
60222 | is that the_ Bladud_?" |
60222 | she asked, abruptly,"do you think it possible that in some former state of being you and I or others can have met before?" |
60222 | still the gods?" |
60222 | what was the matter? |
27860 | ''And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar?... 27860 ''But is n''t Duty a rather early Victorian sort of business, and out of date, anyhow?'' |
27860 | ''Taint true, Bill, is it? |
27860 | Ah me, Dick, where, where is their British reserve? 27860 And he feels that the people must be stirred into seeing that and acting on it?" |
27860 | And now that you are here? |
27860 | And now? |
27860 | And then? |
27860 | And what does John Crondall think of the outlook? |
27860 | And where do I come in? |
27860 | And you think you can live your own life with Woodthrop? |
27860 | And you? |
27860 | But can the thing be done? 27860 But how about the Monroe Doctrine?" |
27860 | But now, of course, I know---- But why have you never told me, Constance? |
27860 | But perhaps you are better informed? |
27860 | But what about my news? |
27860 | Do you know anything about spelling? |
27860 | Do you notice any particular change in John Crondall of late? |
27860 | Do you remember going down Fleet Street into a wretched den, to call on the person who was assistant editor of_ The Mass_? |
27860 | Do you remember the Disarmament Demonstration? |
27860 | Do you? |
27860 | Does n''t he? |
27860 | Echo answers,''who?'' |
27860 | Eh? 27860 Forgive me, Constance,"I said,"but is there some one else who-- is there some one else?" |
27860 | God helping us, as, if we choose aright, He surely will help us, do we choose Duty, or pleasure? 27860 How long have you been on your feet?" |
27860 | How''s that? |
27860 | I know they are to meet these young Canadian preachers who are so tremendously praised by the_ Standard_---- What are their names, again? 27860 I think you are a good deal attracted by my youngest girl, Mordan?" |
27860 | Is it not pathetic,I said,"in twentieth- century England, to see such blatant attacks upon progress as that?" |
27860 | Is the Prime Minister coming? |
27860 | It seems to me you''ve trekked a mighty long way from_ The Mass_ office in-- how many weeks is it? |
27860 | It''s the capital of a Christian country, is n''t it? |
27860 | Me? 27860 Mr. Mordan, I believe?" |
27860 | My friends, will you please pray with me? |
27860 | Oh, is he? |
27860 | Oh, well,I said,"it''s an extraordinary business, is n''t it? |
27860 | Or the Patriots, simply? |
27860 | Perhaps you have other information? |
27860 | Rather a severe blow at our Christianity, is n''t it? |
27860 | Rather sickening about the wind- up of the East Anglian Pageant,he said,"is n''t it? |
27860 | Really? 27860 Really?" |
27860 | She''s the real thing, is n''t she? |
27860 | So you are actually going to be married, Loo? |
27860 | So you do n''t believe it? |
27860 | Then you take the whole thing seriously? |
27860 | True? 27860 Wardle,"I remember saying to my journalistic friend, with absurd earnestness,"have you anything to smoke?" |
27860 | Was it as bad even then? |
27860 | Well, I believe it is generally admitted to be a gigantic hoax, is it not? |
27860 | Well, I do n''t think in real life it''s the same thing that you read about in novels, do you, Dick? |
27860 | Well, can I lend a hand? |
27860 | Well, my dear girl, surely it''s a natural assumption, is it not? |
27860 | Well, you heard what we had to say the other afternoon? |
27860 | What do you think of the news? |
27860 | What? 27860 What? |
27860 | Who''ll you get to publish it? |
27860 | Why not the very soul of our part, Stairs-- the essential first step toward our end? 27860 Why, Constance, whatever has bewitched you? |
27860 | Will you all pray, please? |
27860 | Wot price Piccadilly an''Regent Street to- night? |
27860 | Wot price the Kaiser? 27860 Would not the Canadian preachers say we meant the same thing?" |
27860 | Yes, it''s something like a piece of news, is it not? 27860 You believe him, sare-- zat Shermany do it?" |
27860 | You know they have a volunteer choir of fifty voices? |
27860 | You think we succeeded, then? |
27860 | *****"But what of us? |
27860 | A lofty and soaring view, you say? |
27860 | After all, I thought, what right had this girl from South Africa to criticize me? |
27860 | And did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel? |
27860 | And do you realize who gave that man decent sanity?" |
27860 | And how long will you be away?" |
27860 | And is n''t it magnificent about the Navy? |
27860 | And it seemed to me that Constance flushed slightly as she answered me:"Change? |
27860 | And why does John Crondall want the offer declined?" |
27860 | And, after all, why not? |
27860 | And, piercing these snaps of laughter, one heard the curious, contradictory yapping of such sentences as:"I sye;''ow about them''ot sossiges?" |
27860 | Are King and Country, and the future of our race and the millions who depend on us for light and guidance and protection, of less importance? |
27860 | Are you not aware of the existence of our B---- nostrum for pauper children, or our C---- specific for juvenile emigration? |
27860 | Being in love?" |
27860 | But do you think they taught me anything? |
27860 | But suppose the other nations would not agree to arbitration?" |
27860 | But the question history puts is: Who was primarily to blame for the circumstances which led up to the tragic necessity of the firing order? |
27860 | But what makes you think that?" |
27860 | But what of Crondall? |
27860 | But what of the question''s second half? |
27860 | But who and what produced"The Destroyers"as a Government? |
27860 | But who shall say it was entirely undeserved, or even unforeseen, by advisers whom the nation chose to ignore? |
27860 | But why do you take it upon yourself to bring it forward in this direct manner? |
27860 | But why not the same? |
27860 | But would it be wise of me to allow it?" |
27860 | But, John Crondall?" |
27860 | But, as things have been, in our time, I''m glad this particular man did n''t remain in his native village-- aren''t you?" |
27860 | But, now I come to think of it, why should you waste your time in talking to an old woman who can only give you echoes? |
27860 | But----""Yes?" |
27860 | Ca n''t you see, Dick, how hard it was for me? |
27860 | Can the public be deluded for more than a few hours?" |
27860 | Can you look me in the face and say you believe?" |
27860 | Constance, do you realize how all this must strike a man who was scribbling and fiddling about disarmament a year ago? |
27860 | Constance, you do not really want me to stop loving you?" |
27860 | Could I? |
27860 | Could it be that there was some one else-- some one in Africa? |
27860 | Could it be that they had mastered England? |
27860 | Could it really be that a thousand years of inviolability had been broken, ended, in those few wild days; ended for ever? |
27860 | Could they dare-- here on English soil? |
27860 | Could you strike a blow for either? |
27860 | Did you ever regret the partnership?" |
27860 | Did you hear of it?" |
27860 | Did you notice anything special about the weather, or-- or that, this morning, Parson?'' |
27860 | Do n''t you see how you yourselves are being robbed?" |
27860 | Do you know my fear? |
27860 | Do you think it would be wise or kind of me to allow it? |
27860 | Do you?" |
27860 | Does any one of us ever go to church?" |
27860 | Got a flag in your pocket, have you? |
27860 | Has he changed?" |
27860 | He and his like never stopped to ask"Whither?" |
27860 | How about those''Terrible''fellows? |
27860 | How did you decide to treat him? |
27860 | How do we stand regarding Duty?" |
27860 | How had I kept my vow? |
27860 | How should my friend George Stairs hold that multitude? |
27860 | I could not deny him, and-- that was when you came into the room-- don''t you remember-- Dick?" |
27860 | I only said:"Yes?" |
27860 | I see John Crondall''s hand here, do n''t you?" |
27860 | I suppose you do love Woodthrop, do n''t you?" |
27860 | I suppose you do n''t happen to have ever been down the Falcon Road of a Sunday morning, Parson? |
27860 | I wonder can we get away from these men, anywhere?" |
27860 | If you profess you love a woman, but shirk your duty by her, of what worth is such love? |
27860 | Is Duty''out of date,''my friends? |
27860 | Is Eternity of less importance? |
27860 | Is God of less importance to you? |
27860 | Is it Duty, or is it pleasure?" |
27860 | Is n''t it splendid? |
27860 | It''s not much of an offer, but it would keep us all together?" |
27860 | Mr. Pierce ignored the smile, and said:"University man?" |
27860 | No? |
27860 | Now, as he named the parson again, I looked into the man''s face, and----"Mordan? |
27860 | Now, what do you say-- shall we have another cigar, or go in to the ladies?" |
27860 | Odd, is n''t it?" |
27860 | Of what should I accuse him? |
27860 | Oh, did n''t you know he was here again? |
27860 | One gathers the Scotch are religious?" |
27860 | Or will you come into the study? |
27860 | Perhaps you have inadvertently done so much by me, through_ The Times_--a rather high and dry old institution, is n''t it?" |
27860 | Poole- Smith?" |
27860 | Poole- Smith?" |
27860 | Puritanism, you say? |
27860 | The speaker''s further words were drowned in a confused hubbub of applause, cheers, laughter, shouts of"Are we downhearted?" |
27860 | The thing is, would you tackle it, for the sake of the cause, for a couple of hundred a year? |
27860 | The thought accompanying that chill was this:"What can you do? |
27860 | The waiter-- either a Swiss or a German-- asked me:"Vad you sink, sare, of ze news from ze country?" |
27860 | Then I suppose it follows that you are in love-- h''m?" |
27860 | Then he opened the Bible, and:"May I just read you a few verses from the Bible?" |
27860 | Was I to fight shy of him, or set to work, as it were, in opposition to him? |
27860 | We gazed our fill, and I only nodded when Constance murmured:"It''s worth a struggle, is n''t it?" |
27860 | We''re a Christian people; but who knows a Christian individual? |
27860 | Well, after a bit, I was looking over there to the church, and what d''ye think I saw, all through the pretty sunlight? |
27860 | What I said was:"You know I am-- you know I am at your orders, do n''t you?" |
27860 | What are you fit for? |
27860 | What are you going to do about it?'' |
27860 | What boy''s part, even, can you take, though the roof were being burned over your mother''s head? |
27860 | What do you think? |
27860 | What have you done? |
27860 | What of Constance, or Beatrice? |
27860 | What of you, and I, my friends? |
27860 | What right had I to suspect or resent? |
27860 | What would our Navy be doing?" |
27860 | Where was George Stairs now? |
27860 | Who is there in this office that believes?" |
27860 | Why did she love him? |
27860 | Why do n''t yer run''ome ter yer ma, eh?" |
27860 | Why not hurry on to John Crondall''s place, and join them there? |
27860 | Why not the very essence and soul of our part, Stairs?" |
27860 | Why should England continue to waste its time and energy over pulling both ways in every little job its legislators have to tackle? |
27860 | Why the deuce do n''t the Government see to it? |
27860 | Why, do you know----?" |
27860 | Why, no; not that exactly, for what remained of real and vital moment in her mind, to the exclusion of all serious interest in humanity? |
27860 | Why, not Dick Mordan, of Tarn Regis?" |
27860 | Why-- when?" |
27860 | Will ye be men-- or helots and outcasts? |
27860 | Will you take Constance home? |
27860 | Without Thee, what is all the morning''s wealth? |
27860 | Wo n''t you sit down? |
27860 | Would you care to take that?" |
27860 | You have poured out for your weekly wage so many thousands of words; words meaning-- what? |
27860 | You remember our talks? |
27860 | You remember that meeting of your father''s, when you saved him from the wrath of Vrow Bischoff? |
27860 | You remember that passage in Ecclesiastes--''The conclusion of the whole matter''?" |
27860 | You''re a blue- blooded Tory; an Imperialist, are n''t you?" |
27860 | You, your own self; what do_ you_ think about it? |
27860 | be still; Is human love the growth of human will? |
27860 | or"Why?" |
27860 | that for nine long years we were to be encircled by their garrisons? |
27434 | ''Did you hear that, John?'' 27434 And are not all worthy?" |
27434 | And do you mean to say that Sing has no taste at all, simply because he admires me? |
27434 | And do you really mean to detain us by force? |
27434 | And how did it happen, Mr. Barton, that you came to settle away up in this barren wilderness? |
27434 | And how do you do, Mrs. Barton? 27434 And how is the view from the observatory?" |
27434 | And is it a natural, healthful sleep? |
27434 | And what is that? |
27434 | And what is to become of them if they can not get through? |
27434 | And what was I just talking about? |
27434 | And who is to sail this great balloon, or air- ship? |
27434 | And would each of them have prescribed the remedy you mentioned? |
27434 | And you would n''t mind seeing Greenland''s icy mountains, about which you have sung so many years, would you, girls? |
27434 | Are you entirely recovered? |
27434 | Are you taking medicine now, sir? |
27434 | But do n''t you find the winters very long and terribly cold? |
27434 | But how can we sing with our mouths all wrapped up in furs? 27434 But how did the men of your school do, Doctor?" |
27434 | But my dear woman,cried he, jumping from his chair again,"do n''t you see the utter impossibility of your going on so hard and perilous a voyage? |
27434 | But what is the condition, Maggie? |
27434 | But why? 27434 But, Count Icanovich, do you not see how impossible it is for us to remain?" |
27434 | But, Doctor, you believe that the world is getting better, do you not? |
27434 | But, really now, Mrs. Jones, how could you possibly express the idea better? |
27434 | Ca n''t we use the windlass? |
27434 | Can not he be brought to consent to remain a few weeks? |
27434 | Can we do nothing for them? |
27434 | Could deliverance have come to your house and mine more appropriately than from the skies, and in yonder silver chariot? |
27434 | Could not this warning which you received be accounted for from a psychological standpoint? |
27434 | Did anyone note the time that we arrived here? |
27434 | Did n''t I tell you, Mattie, that he was an incorrigible case? |
27434 | Did they do any better? |
27434 | Did you say that we were to stay here a few months? |
27434 | Do you feel better quiet, or when moving about? |
27434 | Do you feel no fear, Maggie? |
27434 | Do you hear that, mamma? |
27434 | Do you really think so? |
27434 | Do you see that high range of hills just ahead? |
27434 | Excuse me, Doctor, but how is one to know whether his communications be from a good or evil spirit? 27434 Have n''t you said over and over in my presence that this was simply a beautiful picnic trip and perfectly safe?" |
27434 | Have you no special power or authority in this section? |
27434 | How are you getting along, girls? |
27434 | How can you leave your business or get any time to do anything in this undertaking? |
27434 | How do you intend to manage that business, Doctor? |
27434 | How does the temperature in the globe keep up? |
27434 | How is she now, Doctor? |
27434 | How long is this delay likely to last? |
27434 | How long will that be, Doctor? |
27434 | How many physicians of your school are there in America? |
27434 | How shall we manage to safely anchor in this awful wind, Doctor? |
27434 | I suppose, Doctor, that you were in some of the great battles? |
27434 | I would like to ask you, Dr. Jones,said the Professor,"if you ever encountered, or had any experience with what you were positive was supernatural?" |
27434 | In what way? |
27434 | Is it absolutely necessary that we take Silver Cloud to Washington? |
27434 | Is n''t it a pity that you can not stay with that lovely girl until she is out of danger? |
27434 | Is n''t that a settlement I see ahead a few miles? |
27434 | Is n''t that poetic and appropriate? 27434 Is your sciatica of long standing?" |
27434 | Maggie, do you know that I have no idea of what to do with all this money? 27434 Shall we rest a few hours, or go on with our celebration, and immediately sail for home-- or wherever the wind may carry us?" |
27434 | Shall we sail to- day, or accept further hospitalities of New York? |
27434 | Suppose you had an opportunity, by what method would you prove this system to be what you claim for it? |
27434 | To Washington? 27434 Tut, tut,"said the Doctor, seeing the tears streaming down the faces of the four women,"what sort of business is this? |
27434 | Well, Doctor, admitting all you say, what do you suggest as the remedy? 27434 Well, Doctor, you do n''t suppose that anyone will ever get there and back alive, do you?" |
27434 | Well, Maggie, what do you think of it? 27434 Well, Marsh, have you anything more to show us to- night?" |
27434 | Well, and where is your shaft that you intend looking up through? |
27434 | Well, as the Dutch captain said when the harbor inspector asked''Who is the captain of this ship?'' 27434 Well, have you not found it a very monotonous existence?" |
27434 | Well, there is something in the world that you think pretty, is n''t there Sing? |
27434 | Well, wo n''t they be a sensation, when we show them in Washington? |
27434 | Were you in that battle, Doctor? |
27434 | What an old Bluebeard of a husband you have, have n''t you? |
27434 | What do you do to pass the time? |
27434 | What do you mean, Doctor? |
27434 | What do you mean? |
27434 | What do you say, Doctor? |
27434 | What fort is this? |
27434 | What game do you have in this country? |
27434 | What great body of water is that I see ahead? |
27434 | What if she were under your immediate supervision for a certain length of time? |
27434 | What is it? |
27434 | What is that fearful and wonderful silver ball or globe in which you dropped from the skies among us? |
27434 | What is the matter with your wife? |
27434 | What is the meaning of the word''Labrador,''Professor? |
27434 | What is the next thing on the program, Doctor? |
27434 | What is the temperature now? |
27434 | What park is that? |
27434 | What was that wire, and how came it there? |
27434 | What will you heat it with, and how long do you suppose it will be before your globe returns to the earth? |
27434 | What''s up now, Doctor? 27434 Where are we now, Doctor?" |
27434 | Where are you bound? |
27434 | Will they never learn? |
27434 | Will you accompany us to the ship? |
27434 | Will you kindly tell us your object, and by what authority you dare to delay a United States''expedition? 27434 Would you accept it from me as a present?" |
27434 | ''And what was that particular?'' |
27434 | ''Beautiful, is n''t it?'' |
27434 | ''Can it be possible,''said I,''that Hans told the truth?'' |
27434 | ''Well, Joan, how do you like Gunpowder tea?'' |
27434 | ''What for you adtmire me?'' |
27434 | ''What is the matter, Johnnie?'' |
27434 | After the departure of the two men Mrs. Jones said:"Are you seriously thinking of going into this wild scheme, Doctor?" |
27434 | Also: Are they not ministering spirits sent forth to minister to them who shall be heirs of salvation? |
27434 | And is arsenic the remedy for all cases of cancer?" |
27434 | And let me inquire, my dear boy, who is responsible for this wholesale slaughter of a people whose only crime is that of being nominal Christians? |
27434 | And were there ever so many Bibles and tracts and other religious matter published and disseminated as at the present time? |
27434 | And what could be more appropriate? |
27434 | And why should I not be? |
27434 | And why should n''t they? |
27434 | Anyone hurt or seriously sick?" |
27434 | Are there not men in Russia who practice your system, and who could fill your place satisfactorily in this case?" |
27434 | At what time should we arrive there at our present speed?" |
27434 | Away to the left is Lake St. Clair, is n''t it?"'' |
27434 | Barton?" |
27434 | Barton?" |
27434 | But how can you do anything with it, and what good would it do you if you could?" |
27434 | But what do you say as to the safety of life and property at this time, compared with any other age of the world?" |
27434 | But what will it be when suspended in the air, thousands of feet above terra firma? |
27434 | Can not something be done to bring it before the public?" |
27434 | Denison looked at the flushed face and glittering eyes of the Doctor, moved uneasily in his chair, and said:"What''s up, Doctor? |
27434 | Did you all notice how the Princess, Feodora, and a lot more of those Russian ladies cried over him when we were parting from them?" |
27434 | Did you ever see anything so absolutely beautiful?" |
27434 | Do I understand you to advise me to detain you by force?" |
27434 | Do n''t you know of a female acquaintance that you would like to have accompany you?" |
27434 | Do n''t you see how perfectly feasible and beautiful it is?" |
27434 | Do you begin to catch on?" |
27434 | Do you catch the idea?" |
27434 | Do you happen to think of any more''insuperable''obstacles, my dear sir?" |
27434 | Do you know, man, that I have had the best advice in Europe, and have spent a fortune seeking relief?" |
27434 | Do you not know that our Government will demand heavy reprisals for this action upon your part?" |
27434 | Do you really think you can cure her?" |
27434 | Do you see it yonder?" |
27434 | Do you see on the north side of the town those brick and stone buildings in a campus? |
27434 | Do you speak English?" |
27434 | Do you suppose that I have sat here all these months listening to you men talk of this scheme without becoming a convert to your theories? |
27434 | Dondt you see?'' |
27434 | Dr. Jones is exceedingly kind, but do you really think that he has any hopes of curing her?" |
27434 | Dr. Jones stepped briskly up to Count Icanovich and said with all the sharpness he could command:"What is the meaning of this, Sir Count? |
27434 | Getting off?" |
27434 | Grandmother brought the box of tea out before him and said:''Pete, what is the matter with this tea? |
27434 | He was shown the photograph, and Mattie said:"You sabe that picture, Sing?" |
27434 | How can I better spend a year or so than in the promotion of this idea? |
27434 | How did it come out on your Belladonna solution?" |
27434 | How does the chorus of that old hymn run? |
27434 | How nearly am I right?" |
27434 | How, for instance, do you know whether your communication which warned you of the wire across the trail was from an angel or devil?" |
27434 | I wish to ask, then, if it might not have been the spirit of a departed friend who thus warned you?" |
27434 | I''m catching your spirit of enthusiasm, Doctor, and what does a man amount to without enthusiasm in this age of the world?" |
27434 | In vain have our utilitarians cried,"Qui bono?" |
27434 | Is n''t it a pity in this age of the world, to shut off from the children any one of the branches of science or learning?" |
27434 | Is n''t she, gentlemen?" |
27434 | Is not that a ship I see yonder? |
27434 | Is the World Growing Better? |
27434 | Is the undying fame that would attach to such a deed to be lightly esteemed? |
27434 | Is the world growing better? |
27434 | Is your science a mystic or esoteric affair, and are you the only one in possession of the secret?" |
27434 | Now shall we remain here, or meet you at the globe?" |
27434 | Now, what shall be our first move?" |
27434 | Now, you would likee a pretty oil painting, big picture, allee samee that?" |
27434 | See?" |
27434 | Shall we return to the castle?" |
27434 | She gave a hand to each of her coadjutors, and turning to Dr. Jones, said:"Do n''t you see what a splendid lobbyist I am, Doctor? |
27434 | Should I ever see mother, brothers and sisters, home and friends again?" |
27434 | Should I live through the morrow? |
27434 | The Count shook hands with them very cordially, and asked,"How many are there of your party?" |
27434 | This psalm begins by asking:''Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? |
27434 | Vot more do you want?'' |
27434 | Was there ever a time when life and property were so protected as now? |
27434 | What can be more inspiring and grand? |
27434 | What did they do that did not please you?" |
27434 | What do you all say?" |
27434 | What do you all say?" |
27434 | What do you all think of that proposition?" |
27434 | What do you mean? |
27434 | What do you mean?" |
27434 | What have you given me? |
27434 | What is it?" |
27434 | What is the natural inference? |
27434 | What is this black stuff mixed up with the tea?'' |
27434 | What particular variety of tea is it?" |
27434 | What right have you to do so?" |
27434 | What shall be our first move?" |
27434 | What wonder that their hearts are light and merry? |
27434 | What would my days and nights be, even though you went and returned in all the safety you anticipate? |
27434 | What would you have us do now?" |
27434 | What''s the matter?" |
27434 | Where is he?" |
27434 | Who will mount with me to the observatory?" |
27434 | Why have you padlocked these cables?" |
27434 | Why should n''t I detest the whole lying, infernal business?" |
27434 | Why should n''t they be plump and pure and clean, inside and out? |
27434 | Why should she not?" |
27434 | Will you go up to her now, sir?" |
27434 | Will you go up?" |
27434 | You understand, do you not?" |
27434 | You would not undertake to say that this fearful disease is curable, would you?" |
27434 | cried Dr. Jones,"you are getting into my way of thinking on that subject, are you?" |
27434 | cried Will,"what do you suppose the Count has done?" |
27434 | cried the Doctor,"why did not I think of that?" |
27434 | cried the younger,"do n''t you know us?" |
27434 | do n''t you feel awfully frightened away up there, thousands of feet from the earth?" |
27434 | is it possible that you are our friends from Constance House? |
27434 | is this my little Bertha? |
27434 | not care for beautiful oil painting?" |
27434 | said Barton,"Must I not use the disinfectant as I have been doing?" |
27434 | she fairly screamed,''What horrible stuff is this? |
27434 | where is the 87th Indiana?" |
27434 | who shall dwell in thy holy hill?'' |
27434 | would you really part with it?" |
38028 | After all, are not all my secrets here? 38028 Ah, what is that?" |
38028 | Ah, yes; his daughter-- she is the second Marie Antoinette, is n''t she? |
38028 | Ah,said Adelaide, with a little catch in her voice,"from him; and has he----""Succeeded? |
38028 | America-- wonderful? 38028 And Russia?" |
38028 | And are you still decided to fight, gentlemen? |
38028 | And if you had it, what would you do with it? |
38028 | And may we too? |
38028 | And now, captain, do n''t you think that a wee peg would do you good? 38028 And now, suppose we go and join these good people on the lawn?" |
38028 | And what is it to be? |
38028 | And what is that? 38028 And what might that be, Lady Olive?" |
38028 | And what might that be, Miss Fire- eater? |
38028 | And what might that mean in your dictionary of kisses? |
38028 | And what would have been the effect of that? |
38028 | And what''s that, poppa? |
38028 | And why not? |
38028 | But how can that be? |
38028 | But how? |
38028 | But look here,said Austin;"could n''t you paralyse''em? |
38028 | But why not war now? |
38028 | But, great sakes, Chrysie, you do n''t mean the marquise is going to poison us? |
38028 | But, my dear Shafto,said the earl,"that would be a most flagrant act of piracy on the high seas, would n''t it?" |
38028 | Can you tell me, Captain, whether the gentleman who calls himself the French Ambassador has honoured us with his presence to- night? |
38028 | Discovered what? 38028 Do n''t you think you ought to be in bed, Chrysie, instead of sitting there smoking a cigarette, and-- Why, what''s the matter with you, girl?" |
38028 | Do n''t you think you''d better turn in for a bit? 38028 Do n''t you wish you had that revolver of hers?" |
38028 | Do you really mean to say that that is actually feasible? 38028 Have I no eyes in my head? |
38028 | Have I not given up everything, even, as some would say, sacrificed honour itself, to help you to win back that which is your own by every right? 38028 He has found me out, and I have lost him; and when you have lost a man, why should he go on living? |
38028 | Hello, what''s that? 38028 I wonder who has succeeded beyond his best expectations? |
38028 | Is that really so, Lamson? 38028 Is there any other way that a sixteen- knotter could overtake a twenty- knotter? |
38028 | Lady Olive, you will send the signal to the other rooms? 38028 May I come up on to the sacred territory?" |
38028 | My dear Chrysie, what are you talking about? 38028 My dear Chrysie,"said Lady Olive,"what are you carrying that terrible- looking weapon for? |
38028 | My dear Victor,she replied, with a bewildering smile,"have I not already told you that you may hope for everything? |
38028 | My dear marquise,said Sophie,"do you not think that you are letting your feelings run away with you? |
38028 | News? 38028 Oh, captain,"he said,"that you? |
38028 | Quartermaster, who is on duty in the engine- room? |
38028 | Say, poppa,she went on, leaning over the front of the bridge,"I reckon that shot broke the law of nations, did n''t it? |
38028 | Shall I write it,she murmured, in a soft, low tone,"or shall I keep it hidden where no human eyes can read it? |
38028 | Since our fathers are such old and good friends, why should we not be new friends and good ones too? |
38028 | The Pole? |
38028 | Then you think we''ll have to fight for it? |
38028 | There is, I believe,said Sophie, putting her arms on the table,"a little apartment leading out of your own bureau at the Ministry of War?" |
38028 | Was n''t it your Lord Beaconsfield who said that the most dreary duty of humanity was explanation? 38028 Was not the same song sung in honour of the Grand Monarque by the ladies of Versailles? |
38028 | Well, Shafto,said Lady Olive, as the two men took their caps off,"and what is all this mystery about? |
38028 | Well, if it''s as bad as that,said her father,"why not warn the viscount?" |
38028 | Well, papa,said Sophie,"have you any news? |
38028 | What about that reserve-- that territory, you know, that I was supposed to have an option on in Buffalo? |
38028 | What can it mean, papa? |
38028 | What do you say, Victor? 38028 What friend?" |
38028 | What is that you say?--disabled? 38028 What on earth do you mean, Chrysie?" |
38028 | What thing? |
38028 | What''s the matter, M''Niven? |
38028 | What''s the matter? 38028 What''s the use of world masters and world mistresses trying to hide things from each other? |
38028 | What,exclaimed Adelaide, taken off her guard for a moment,"do you mean that, Sophie? |
38028 | Who knows? |
38028 | Why do you want to get ill over a thing like that, man? 38028 Why should the Evening envy the Morning, or the Lily be jealous of the Rose?" |
38028 | Why, my dear chap, what''s up? 38028 Why, what do you mean, my dear Vandel?" |
38028 | Will you make it five miles, captain? |
38028 | Wonderful, my dear Victor? 38028 Yes, I have,"he replied;"and the greatest of good news; you know from whom?" |
38028 | A sudden blast of wind struck their faces, hands instinctively went up to heads, and Lady Olive exclaimed:"What is that, Shafto? |
38028 | Ah, well, I wonder what will happen in Paris? |
38028 | Ah, well, it is fate, and who shall question that? |
38028 | Ah, who is this?" |
38028 | And Paris-- why should his success take him to Paris? |
38028 | And might I ask why? |
38028 | And now, I suppose, you''ve got some coffee ready for us down in the saloon?" |
38028 | And now, may I ask your lordship one question?" |
38028 | And that?" |
38028 | And the prince?" |
38028 | And then, with a sudden drop in the tone,"You''re not ill, old man, are you?" |
38028 | And who could blame him, after all? |
38028 | And yet, are not all things possible? |
38028 | Any news?" |
38028 | Any-- do you wish to speak to me? |
38028 | Anyhow, it was addressed to Count Valdemar,_ Yacht Vlodoya_, Cherbourg; and Cherbourg''s not on the way to the Baltic, is it? |
38028 | Are you badly hurt?" |
38028 | Are you going to be all the morning getting through that tin box? |
38028 | Are you quite serious?" |
38028 | Are you quite sure of him?" |
38028 | Are you still of opinion that the scheme that I sketched out is feasible?" |
38028 | But what can I do till we have either succeeded or failed? |
38028 | But what was this? |
38028 | But who can ever read this?" |
38028 | But you will keep me a waltz or two, wo n''t you? |
38028 | CHAPTER II"And so, Monsieur le Ministre, I am to take that as your final word? |
38028 | CHAPTER XVII"And so, Ma''m''selle la Comtesse, it comes to this: you would have me reward hospitality with treachery? |
38028 | Ca n''t you see what she''s doing every hour and day of her life? |
38028 | Can you not leave us in peace?" |
38028 | Chrysie looked up and said, with a snap of her eyes:"What other friend than M''am''selle Felice''s mistress-- the noble Adelaide de Condé?" |
38028 | Did any human law compel him to share it with anyone? |
38028 | Do n''t you see that Frenchwoman''s bewitched him? |
38028 | Do n''t you see there are millions in it if it''s true, and of course you''ll come in on the ground- floor? |
38028 | Do n''t you see, we''re going to have that punch just a few hours before we get the engines right and that other boat is to catch us?" |
38028 | Do n''t you think, Mr Vandel, that we might slow round and give them one from that gun of yours?" |
38028 | Do you know why your lamented father the prince was such a welcome guest at the court of Petersburg?" |
38028 | Do you not think so, papa?" |
38028 | Do you see what I mean now?" |
38028 | Does n''t it strike you as just a bit curious that they should be going north up Davis Straits just when our Storage Works are getting finished? |
38028 | Does n''t look very dangerous, does it? |
38028 | Does that mean what you call full speed?" |
38028 | England and America can be rendered helpless if we once seize the works, and Russia can, I presume, be trusted?" |
38028 | Everything would come out; the whole conspiracy, and her own share in it; and then, what would he think of her? |
38028 | For instance, if the tables had been turned, should we have treated them as they have treated us? |
38028 | Go him a few pounds of Vandelite better?" |
38028 | Had Felice told about the telegram, under the temptation of such a bribe as these millionaires could offer? |
38028 | Had Sophie''s scheme been betrayed? |
38028 | Had Williams wavered at the last, and confessed? |
38028 | Have you been able to persuade them to surrender to the expedition?" |
38028 | He began it, did n''t he? |
38028 | He had pledged his honour, and could tell no one-- but even if he could, what then? |
38028 | Hello, what''s this? |
38028 | How can I help you, when these people already have the secret in their hands, and have been spending their millions for weeks? |
38028 | How could any man with eyes in his head and blood in his heart resist her? |
38028 | How could you do it without betraying yourself? |
38028 | How do we know what means of defence they''ve got? |
38028 | How is the telegram signed?" |
38028 | How many millions could buy that? |
38028 | How soon can you get us across the Atlantic, Hardress?" |
38028 | How will that do?" |
38028 | How would it be if you raised his bluff? |
38028 | How would you like to be master of the world?" |
38028 | I guess I could promise you both a pretty interesting time from Niagara right away to----""Suppose we say the Magnetic Pole?" |
38028 | I reckon that would be quite an interesting little surprise- party, would n''t it?" |
38028 | I suppose you have quite decided to take the trip across the Atlantic on the_ Nadine_?" |
38028 | I suppose you take a great interest in weapons of warfare?" |
38028 | I wish you''d tell Evans to bring me a brandy- and- soda, will you?" |
38028 | I wonder what the fair Sophie would give to know what you and I know, Adelaide?" |
38028 | I wonder what they''ll feel like when we turn the disintegrators on them?" |
38028 | If I can not sit on the throne of the Bourbons, why should I not be empress- consort on the throne of a world- wide empire?--why not? |
38028 | If it is, you see this?" |
38028 | Is it anything to do with that infernal tin box?" |
38028 | Is it not the unexpected that comes to pass? |
38028 | Is n''t that so, poppa?" |
38028 | Is that good American, Chrysie?" |
38028 | Is that your idea?" |
38028 | It has n''t suddenly come on to blow, has it?" |
38028 | It is the same!--what miracle has happened? |
38028 | It seems ridiculous, does n''t it? |
38028 | It was a terrible end for two such beautiful women, was it not, admiral? |
38028 | May I ask for an outline of it? |
38028 | Mr Jackson, will you kindly lower away the quarter- boat?" |
38028 | No, there may be time even yet; I have risked much, and I will risk more; and you, Adelaide, will you help me? |
38028 | Now, do you think I was right in doing a very improper thing-- which, of course, it was?" |
38028 | Now, how''s a sixteen- knot boat going to catch a twenty- knot yacht anywhere between Southampton and Halifax?" |
38028 | Now, what does haste mean? |
38028 | Now, where''s the spark that''s going to connect them?" |
38028 | Of this nation of snobs and shopkeepers, ruled by a combination of stockbrokers, heavy- witted bourgeoisie and political adventurers? |
38028 | Olive, you will make the coffee later on, wo n''t you, in that patent concern of yours? |
38028 | Poor chap, what can have made such a mess of him as that?" |
38028 | Poppa, why do n''t you let''em have just one little hint that we''re not quite harmless?" |
38028 | Seems to me the question is now, what we''re going to do if she does?" |
38028 | Shall we ever have another like it? |
38028 | She had disgraced herself in the eyes of the man she would have sold her soul to get, and now-- well, what did it matter? |
38028 | She rose slowly from her chair, and said, almost falteringly:"What do you mean, Victor? |
38028 | Should he fling the priceless papers, the warrant for the mastery of the world, into the sea and be done with it? |
38028 | Should he keep them in his pocket and make untold millions out of the power that they placed in his hands? |
38028 | Simple, is n''t it? |
38028 | Suppose,"he went on, with something like a shudder,"a shell bursts in the absorber, where are we? |
38028 | Surely it is not always usual to ask the enemy within the gates?" |
38028 | Surely, Adelaide, for the sake of all that is past and all that may be to come you will not say no?" |
38028 | That will be somewhat of an experience for you, marquise, will it not?" |
38028 | That''s a pretty- looking weapon, is n''t it?" |
38028 | That''s so; is n''t it, Olive? |
38028 | The corpse?" |
38028 | The last word is''Dépêchez,''and that''s French for''Make haste,''is n''t it? |
38028 | Then she took up her pen again, and wrote:"I wonder if there is another woman?" |
38028 | There is no hope of repairs, I suppose?" |
38028 | To- morrow-- nay, within six hours, it would be war to the death, Why not begin now, as Sophie had whispered? |
38028 | Twenty knots!--that''s about twenty- four miles an hour, is n''t it, a little bit faster than a South- Eastern express train?" |
38028 | Was Fate itself ever more unkind to man or woman? |
38028 | Was it not his by right? |
38028 | Was that a reason why these guns were being mounted?--and what would happen if the_ Nadine_ met force with force, and won? |
38028 | Was there ever a more cruel irony of Fate than this? |
38028 | Well, now, doctor, are we ready?" |
38028 | Were even the guns and their machinery affected by this strange languor which had been afflicting both men and animals for the last day or two? |
38028 | What are these people going to do? |
38028 | What are we to do? |
38028 | What better means could we have than the possession of the heads of the concern? |
38028 | What can I do now, left alone as I am?" |
38028 | What can they suspect?" |
38028 | What can we do against them?" |
38028 | What could I think?" |
38028 | What could he say or do? |
38028 | What did it mean? |
38028 | What do I owe it?" |
38028 | What do all the society papers say about her? |
38028 | What do they know? |
38028 | What do you say poppa? |
38028 | What do you say, Doctor? |
38028 | What do you say, Monsieur le President?" |
38028 | What do you say, countess?" |
38028 | What do you say, gentlemen?" |
38028 | What do you think, viscount?" |
38028 | What do you think, viscount?" |
38028 | What do you wish us to do?" |
38028 | What has happened to Adelaide?--has she turned traitor too? |
38028 | What is it?" |
38028 | What more would you? |
38028 | What on earth can he be doing at Cherbourg?" |
38028 | What was he to do? |
38028 | What''s happening to Mr Williams just now captain?" |
38028 | What''s the matter with changing the subject? |
38028 | What''s the matter?" |
38028 | What''s the trouble?" |
38028 | What''s your idea, Mr Vandel?" |
38028 | What''s your idea, marquise, about these two Polar expeditions being started off this year? |
38028 | When are you going to tell me this wonderful news of yours?" |
38028 | When they got out into the street Lady Olive said, a trifle frigidly:"My dear Chrysie, do n''t you think you did a rather improper thing in there? |
38028 | Whence had come this blow which had struck him down so swiftly? |
38028 | Which Pole?" |
38028 | Why do n''t you call him Shafto?" |
38028 | Why not? |
38028 | Why not? |
38028 | Why not? |
38028 | Why, for instance, could you not have performed the miracle that you have just been telling me about in one of our laboratories in Paris? |
38028 | Why, what''s the matter?" |
38028 | Will you allow me to give you and also your poor men who have been working so hard at the broken engine a little treat?" |
38028 | Will you keep the compact which your father made with mine?" |
38028 | You have n''t tried to run me much, have you?" |
38028 | You said that you wanted my help-- how? |
38028 | and is not this the only friend and confidant that I have now left to me? |
38028 | and may I hope also for supper?" |
38028 | asked his lordship;"you''ve not heard anything unpleasant, have you?" |
38028 | he cried, springing to his feet;"you know that, and from whom?" |
38028 | he muttered,"is that me?" |
38028 | he said to the admirals a few moments later, when the car was rattling over the narrow rails,"and, if so, what are you going to do with this thing?" |
38028 | is it not worth fighting for?" |
38028 | or the old France-- my France-- the France of my ancestors, as it was in the days when the great Louis said:''L''état c''est moi''? |
38028 | she echoed, drawing herself up, and looking at him with a half- angry glint in her eyes,"of what France? |
19498 | A German? |
19498 | A prisoner? |
19498 | After all, why should they? |
19498 | Am I wounded? |
19498 | An Englishman? |
19498 | An Englishman? |
19498 | And if it was not genuine? |
19498 | And now you want to learn paperhanging? |
19498 | And the enemy? |
19498 | And the_ Georgia_ a little earlier,said Winstanley;"but where are we? |
19498 | And what has become of the rest of our squadron? |
19498 | And when is the local train from Umatilla expected? |
19498 | And with whom, if I may be allowed to ask? |
19498 | And you mean to say that thousands----? |
19498 | Any cable news, Parrington? |
19498 | Are the signal- halyards still clear? |
19498 | Are you quite sure of it? 19498 As early as this, Harryman?" |
19498 | Bad? 19498 Be quiet, damn you, why do n''t you shut up?" |
19498 | But could n''t we make it a go after all? |
19498 | But seriously, Harryman,began the colonel again,"can you give any explanation?" |
19498 | But the enemy, Longstreet, where''s the enemy? 19498 But what about our workmen?" |
19498 | But where can they come from? |
19498 | Can I help you in any way? |
19498 | Can that be another of their devilish tricks? |
19498 | Can we enter the harbor by night? |
19498 | Can you make out which ship the first one is? |
19498 | Can you suggest anything else? |
19498 | Commercial mastery? |
19498 | Cost Harryman, on board the_ Monadnock_, his life? |
19498 | Dick, where''s Forster? |
19498 | Did n''t they have guns? |
19498 | Did n''t you hear something, captain? |
19498 | Did you see that, Harry? |
19498 | Did you send for me, father? |
19498 | Do n''t you know, Mr. Allen, that there are naval maneuvers going on to- day and that Admiral Perry is to surprise San Francisco with the fleet? |
19498 | Do you believe in the seaquake? |
19498 | Do you hear it? |
19498 | Do you know what I''m going to do, James Harrison? |
19498 | Do you mean to imply that the Japanese are surprising us? |
19498 | Do you think all this is on account of the Philippines? |
19498 | Do you want me to procure hundreds, thousands like it for you? |
19498 | Does it have to be that? |
19498 | Exactly,rang out a voice;"but how do you account for that?" |
19498 | For mother? |
19498 | Forster,said Dick suddenly,"what''s that in front of us? |
19498 | Forty kasch? 19498 Halloo, Taney,"called out an acquaintance,"where are you going?" |
19498 | Halloo, when are we going on? |
19498 | Harry,he called presently,"does n''t it seem as though the bells were ringing? |
19498 | Harry,he said, looking up,"do you remember the speech I made at Harvard years ago on the unity of nations? |
19498 | Harryman,said Colonel McCabe seriously,"do you think there is danger? |
19498 | Have we really? |
19498 | Have you any relatives in the American Navy? |
19498 | Have you read the orders for mobilization? |
19498 | He''s a spy, too, I suppose? |
19498 | How about her? |
19498 | How did you get here? |
19498 | How do you mean? |
19498 | How many of them are there? |
19498 | How much money will the great stranger pay for a meal for his illustrious stomach in Si Wafang''s miserable hut? 19498 How much?" |
19498 | How much? |
19498 | How so? |
19498 | How so? |
19498 | How''s that? |
19498 | I wonder why we have a wireless apparatus on board? |
19498 | In time of war? |
19498 | Indeed? |
19498 | Indeed? |
19498 | Is n''t it awful, this sudden attack on our country? 19498 It was pretty bad, I suppose?" |
19498 | Longstreet, did it all really happen, or have I been dreaming? |
19498 | Longstreet, nursed in San Francisco, is that what the Jap said? 19498 Longstreet,"he began again more urgently,"tell me, is it all over, can it be true?" |
19498 | May I see your papers? |
19498 | Mines, my dear sir, mines? 19498 Mother,"said one of her daughters,"do you hear it? |
19498 | Naval maneuvers? |
19498 | No news of the fleet, either? |
19498 | No, it''s not the_ Iowa_,corroborated the captain,"but two funnels... what ship can it be...?" |
19498 | No, where? |
19498 | No? 19498 Now, then, Mr. Higgins,"he called, wiping the water from his eyes and mustache,"where is the yellow fleet?" |
19498 | Of course, Singley, what is it? |
19498 | Parrington, are you coming? 19498 Perhaps,"replied the Admiral, rather sharply,"but will you tell me what for? |
19498 | Perry? |
19498 | Pretty miserable, Longstreet; what''s going to become of us? |
19498 | Really not? |
19498 | Richard,cried the mother in a horrified voice,"are you in it, too?" |
19498 | Shall we go up to the conning- tower? |
19498 | Sir? |
19498 | Straight to Mindanao? |
19498 | Taney,said Harrison,"is n''t that the most beautiful city in the world? |
19498 | The Germans are friends of Japan, are they not? |
19498 | The Philippines? 19498 The bridges?" |
19498 | The express goes through without stopping, does n''t it? |
19498 | The lieutenant,said the captain,"wants to know something about Esquimault; you know the harbor there, do n''t you?" |
19498 | They''re coming? |
19498 | Think of it? 19498 Under our eyes?" |
19498 | Warn him? |
19498 | We are stumbling into a trap? |
19498 | We ourselves? |
19498 | We would n''t? 19498 We, at war?" |
19498 | Well, father, what do you think of it? |
19498 | Well, old man, how are you? |
19498 | Well, why are the papers always talking so much about imperialism? |
19498 | Well? |
19498 | Were there any Japanese ships at Esquimault when you were there? |
19498 | What about the instrument, sir? |
19498 | What are you doing, sonny? |
19498 | What did you do to your arm? |
19498 | What did you say? |
19498 | What did you say? |
19498 | What did you think? |
19498 | What do you suppose it is? |
19498 | What does this mean? |
19498 | What is it? 19498 What is it?" |
19498 | What on earth does she want in addition? |
19498 | What shall we do? |
19498 | What was her name? |
19498 | What will Great Britain do in case of war? |
19498 | What will become of my boy? 19498 What''s the matter, are you wounded?" |
19498 | What''s the matter? |
19498 | What''s up? 19498 What''s up?" |
19498 | What, Mr. Hanbury wants to speak? |
19498 | What,he shouted,"what''s that, Higgins? |
19498 | What? |
19498 | When? |
19498 | Where am I wounded? |
19498 | Where are we going, Harry? |
19498 | Where can he be? |
19498 | Where did you get the scrawl? |
19498 | Where from? 19498 Where is Colonel Johnson?" |
19498 | Where is the telegraph- wire to the waterworks? |
19498 | Where on earth have the Japanese ships come from? 19498 Where shall we eat?" |
19498 | Where shall we take it? |
19498 | Where''s the captain? |
19498 | Who''s Perry? |
19498 | Who''s that with you? |
19498 | Who? 19498 Why not?" |
19498 | Will Harriman sell? 19498 Will you give me your word of honor?" |
19498 | Will you please do me a last service? |
19498 | With a cargo of machinery,repeated the Japanese officer, adding,"and you are familiar with these waters also?" |
19498 | Wo n''t you sit down and join us in a glass of whisky? |
19498 | Would n''t it be possible to warn Arthur? |
19498 | Yes, I know, you were at Elandslaagte and afterwards at Cronstadt, were you not? |
19498 | Yes, mother, you did n''t suppose I''d stand and look on while Arthur was risking his life, did you? 19498 You do n''t know? |
19498 | You have no mines? |
19498 | You have run the blockade, man? 19498 You have run the blockade?" |
19498 | You told the captain that you''ve been in San Francisco often,began the Jap again;"on what line were you?" |
19498 | You''ll be on board your boat quite soon enough, or do you want to keep a night watch also on your Japanese of the-- What sort of a Maru was it? |
19498 | ***** But where had the two_ Dreadnoughts_ come from? |
19498 | *****"What do you think of this Magdalen Bay affair?" |
19498 | ..."He was willing to give twenty dollars, was he?" |
19498 | A long pause ensued which was at last broken by the Jap, who inquired:"Do you know Lieutenant Longstreet of the American Navy?" |
19498 | Admiral Crane''s fleet, the yellow fleet? |
19498 | All that''s necessary is a determined attack----""On the entrenchments in the dark?" |
19498 | An orderly galloped past, and some one called out to him:"How are things in front?" |
19498 | And if so, what did it all mean? |
19498 | And suppose he did call out as the train rushed by? |
19498 | And suppose now that he did jump across and run along the tracks? |
19498 | And then, turning to Harryman, he asked briskly:"When are the transports expected to arrive?" |
19498 | And what had we in the way of troops to oppose this hostile invasion? |
19498 | And where, all this time, was Admiral Perry with his fleet? |
19498 | And who would have dared oppose these men when animated by a single thought and a common purpose? |
19498 | And would the Japanese calculation have been correct also if Perry had beaten Togo or Crane Kamimura? |
19498 | Are you blind? |
19498 | Are you crazy?" |
19498 | Are you ready? |
19498 | Bill was the first to recover, and inquired with apparent nonchalance:"What are you gentlemen after?" |
19498 | But could the enemy have taken the three little tugs for torpedo- boats? |
19498 | But from where were they to come? |
19498 | But how had all this been accomplished? |
19498 | But was there such a thing as an American army? |
19498 | But what good could this scathing denunciation of the Japanese policy do us? |
19498 | But what in Heaven''s name are we going to do?" |
19498 | But what is public opinion? |
19498 | But where else can they have come from?" |
19498 | But where was the fleet? |
19498 | But where? |
19498 | But why at such a distance? |
19498 | By the way, are you going to the Stock Exchange to- day?" |
19498 | Ca n''t you hear the shots?" |
19498 | Can they be Japanese?" |
19498 | Could he be mistaken? |
19498 | Could it be chance...? |
19498 | Could it have been a dream or the raving of delirium? |
19498 | Could such a force have pushed so far to the East in such a short space of time after landing? |
19498 | Could these be the same? |
19498 | Could this be war? |
19498 | Did you ever imagine him to be anything else?" |
19498 | Do you accept or not?" |
19498 | Do you suppose that I''ve worked hard all my life and worn myself out for the express purpose of turning our factory into a workingmen''s home? |
19498 | Do you think you can get the engine across?" |
19498 | Do you understand it?" |
19498 | General MacArthur gave spurs to his horse and rode towards the colonel, saying:"Colonel, how can you desert your regiment?" |
19498 | Gerald moved forward a step and, looking the questioner straight in the eye, said:"I''m Mr. Hanbury, what do you want?" |
19498 | Had God really turned the light of his countenance from us? |
19498 | Had he been asleep? |
19498 | Had they been able to hold their own between the enemy and the coast? |
19498 | Had they brought arms along? |
19498 | Hanbury?" |
19498 | Hanbury?" |
19498 | Hanbury?" |
19498 | Have n''t you read the_ Evening Standard_? |
19498 | He cleared his throat and repeated the question in a low tone of voice:"And if it was not genuine?" |
19498 | He hurried towards the door and there ran plumb against the orderly, whom he asked sharply:"What are you doing here?" |
19498 | He was standing in the doorway of the station and now called out:"Where is Arthur Engelmann?" |
19498 | How could Prussia, absolutely devoid of resources, have carried on the war it did against Napoleon a hundred years ago, unless this were so? |
19498 | How could the fellows have come so far across country? |
19498 | How did I get here?" |
19498 | How did the enemy manage to outflank us? |
19498 | How''s that?" |
19498 | Hubert pointed to the button- hole in the lapel of his coat and said:"Do you see this?" |
19498 | I wonder what that means?" |
19498 | Is anyone missing? |
19498 | Is n''t it awful the way we have been taken by surprise? |
19498 | Is this never going to stop? |
19498 | It was hell----""Were you in Wall Street on Monday?" |
19498 | It''s not the yellow fleet at all,"interrupted the admiral,"it''s, it''s-- my God, what is it?" |
19498 | It''s on account of imperialism, then, is it?" |
19498 | Let him keep on ringing, general, wo n''t you?" |
19498 | May I ask Your Excellency to glance over this telegram?" |
19498 | Meade rushed at him angrily and seizing him by the arm cried:"Johnny, what are you doing here? |
19498 | Music? |
19498 | Never? |
19498 | Now along the tracks-- is there anything coming way back there? |
19498 | One of the naval officers pulled out his watch to see if it were correct, and then said:"Shall we go down and get something to eat first, Ben?" |
19498 | Or could it be that all was already at an end out at Mindanao? |
19498 | Or was that not the war after all? |
19498 | Perhaps it was a signal to the nearest watch to pull up the rails in front of the approaching train? |
19498 | Shall we make it the Riviera? |
19498 | So you are to cut the telegraph- wire?" |
19498 | Taney looked with interest at the little white button with the American flag, and then said:"Have I got to that point? |
19498 | Taney stuffed his pipe and answered:"In a month? |
19498 | That was my first speech, and who would have thought that we should now be sitting together in this room? |
19498 | The admiral studied them thoughtfully and murmured:"_ New York_, it''s true she belongs to the yellow fleet, but what brings her to Magdalen Bay? |
19498 | The colonel pressed down the ashes in his pipe with his thumb, and asked indifferently:"You understand Japanese?" |
19498 | The fleet?" |
19498 | The last chance, I suppose?" |
19498 | The man with the Browning consulted his note- book and asked Tom:"What signal is that? |
19498 | The man with the Browning pistol now turned to Tom and said:"Has the express passed yet?" |
19498 | The mother went on crying quietly, her handkerchief up to her eyes:"When was it to be? |
19498 | The question is, what shall we do? |
19498 | The woman, a coarse beauty with a fine mustache, planted herself in front of the Jap and shouted:"What, you shrimp, you want our fish, do you?" |
19498 | Then a door was pulled open and some one asked:"Where are the robbers?" |
19498 | Then he asked:"Did you understand question?" |
19498 | Then it was all real, a terrible reality? |
19498 | Two minutes later an excited lieutenant rushed in crying:"What''s the matter with the apparatus?" |
19498 | Was he awake or had he been dreaming? |
19498 | Was it a signal of friend or foe? |
19498 | Was it a warning signal? |
19498 | Was it an invading force? |
19498 | Was there any sense in hoping when months must pass before an American army could take the field? |
19498 | Was this the Japanese army at all? |
19498 | Were the bells tolling? |
19498 | Were the rails vibrating? |
19498 | Were we fighting against supernatural forces, which no human heroism could overcome? |
19498 | What are they marching out to Golden Gate for?" |
19498 | What business had the world to be asleep? |
19498 | What can it mean? |
19498 | What could the two cruisers_ New York_ and_ Brooklyn_, lying in dock for repairs, do without a single ball- cartridge on board? |
19498 | What do you propose doing with our factory during the war?" |
19498 | What do you think? |
19498 | What do_ you_ think of it?" |
19498 | What does he want here?" |
19498 | What does it all mean?" |
19498 | What for?" |
19498 | What had become of them? |
19498 | What had happened to the Philippines and to Hawaii? |
19498 | What on earth had happened? |
19498 | What the deuce do you mean?" |
19498 | What was it that the supposed plan of attack set forth? |
19498 | What was that? |
19498 | What was that? |
19498 | What was that?--Lieutenant Meade had reached the officers''mess-- was it music or were his ears playing him a trick? |
19498 | What was the good of the deck guards using up their cartridges before the red flag of Nippon was hoisted above the Stars and Stripes? |
19498 | What was the use of our gunners aiming at the flat, gray arches of these uncanny ocean- tortoises? |
19498 | What would happen to the two inside? |
19498 | What would it matter-- he, one among millions, without wife or child? |
19498 | What would they think of us on the other side if we were to hesitate at such a time as this? |
19498 | What''s going on this morning, anyhow? |
19498 | What''s up?" |
19498 | When had the new Chinatown sprung up? |
19498 | Where are we bound to-- what''s going to become of us?" |
19498 | Where are you going?" |
19498 | Where has this sudden life come from? |
19498 | Where is the express now?" |
19498 | Where on earth had the fellows come from, and what in the world did they want? |
19498 | Where to? |
19498 | Where under the sun was he? |
19498 | Where was the fleet? |
19498 | Where''s Arthur?" |
19498 | Whither are they going? |
19498 | Who are those fellows over there; where the deuce are they going?" |
19498 | Why were we content to allow the smuggling to continue without interference, simply because we felt it could n''t be stamped out anyhow? |
19498 | Will it ever stop? |
19498 | Will the enemy''s ammunition never give out? |
19498 | Will you be so good as to give me your names?" |
19498 | Would they hit him or miss him when the train came? |
19498 | Yes, where was Admiral Perry? |
19498 | You do n''t mean to say you''ll send three thousand workmen, quiet, industrious, faithful, reliable workmen, begging to- day? |
19498 | You walk across a sandy plain in the heat of the midday sun and you return the same way the next morning after a rainy night-- what has happened? |
19498 | You''ve been taken in, too, have you?" |
19498 | _ Chapter XII_ ARE YOU WINSTANLEY? |
19498 | asked the lieutenant,"may I inquire on which line?" |
19498 | was the answer;"where are you off to?" |
19498 | what''s up?" |
50138 | A fear generator? |
50138 | A fog in your head? |
50138 | A what? |
50138 | A woman in this wilderness? |
50138 | A_ whore house_? 50138 About this woman, colonel? |
50138 | Actually I was wondering--"Whether or not I could read your mind? 50138 Ah? |
50138 | Ah? 50138 Ah?" |
50138 | Am I wrong? |
50138 | And are there others down there who feel like heading for the hills? |
50138 | And no weapons? |
50138 | And thus destroy their bomb and the best of their scientists and engineers? |
50138 | And what about your life? |
50138 | And you can get me to Asia? |
50138 | And--"And what? |
50138 | Anything else I can tell you? |
50138 | Are n''t you even afraid to die? |
50138 | Are n''t you really afraid, Nedra? |
50138 | Are you about to faint again? |
50138 | Are you all right? |
50138 | Are you giving me orders? |
50138 | Are you hot? |
50138 | Are you out of your mind? |
50138 | Are you reading my mind? |
50138 | Are you ready? |
50138 | Are you sleepy, too? |
50138 | Are you still on that level? |
50138 | Are you sure you''re not suffering from delayed shock following the bomb explosion? 50138 Are you?" |
50138 | Are_ you_ one of the new people? |
50138 | But after the first man has been killed, does it help the situation to kill a second? 50138 But does it make a great deal of difference?" |
50138 | But does n''t that change the picture, colonel? |
50138 | But goddammit-- Are you hurt, Kurt? |
50138 | But that would n''t keep you from shooting me? |
50138 | But what is a blooper? |
50138 | But what of the men who need help? |
50138 | But what point are you making if not the one that wars are mistakes? |
50138 | But where are we going? |
50138 | But while she is developing her muscular control, what is she doing to the endocrinal system of every male in the place? |
50138 | But why did you shoot him? |
50138 | But why have n''t Cal and his buddies found it? |
50138 | But--"How do you know? 50138 Can I turn around now?" |
50138 | Clairvoyants? |
50138 | Could you do it? |
50138 | Dead? |
50138 | Did I say the wrong thing, ask the wrong question? |
50138 | Did it really happen? 50138 Did she blow?" |
50138 | Did you also suspect that the only reason this airborne landing was made on these shores was to capture you? |
50138 | Did you have a good night''s sleep? |
50138 | Did you have that in mind for me? |
50138 | Did you know? |
50138 | Did you make those people go to sleep? |
50138 | Did you run into some difficulty? |
50138 | Did you show him that? |
50138 | Do n''t you believe he is actually one of us? 50138 Do n''t you hear me?" |
50138 | Do n''t you hear that blooper in the sky overhead? |
50138 | Do n''t you realize that your failure to report what you knew is high treason? |
50138 | Do you believe in the race soul too? |
50138 | Do you feel as bad as all that, colonel? |
50138 | Do you feel you really need burping? |
50138 | Do you have a weapon that will penetrate to this depth? |
50138 | Do you honestly think that? |
50138 | Do you know him well? |
50138 | Do you know that going with me may mean death? |
50138 | Do you know what this means, Kurt? 50138 Do you mean they would get a jolt of high voltage electricity if they ventured in here?" |
50138 | Do you mean you have never heard of them? |
50138 | Do you mind if I ask you a question? |
50138 | Do you think I have no friends? |
50138 | Do you think she might be a spy for Cuso heading for his camp to report? |
50138 | Do you want to die? 50138 Do you want to die?" |
50138 | Do you want to go with me to Asia? |
50138 | Do you want to howl like a dog too? |
50138 | Does he live back there? |
50138 | Does that mean I''m all right? |
50138 | Does the generator have the same effect on all people? |
50138 | Does the government know about this? |
50138 | Eh? 50138 Eh?" |
50138 | Eh? |
50138 | Explode the rocket here in space? |
50138 | For how long? |
50138 | Get me where? |
50138 | Granting your statement, what do you propose I do? |
50138 | Has somebody been sleeping? |
50138 | Have I alibied or evaded? 50138 Have n''t they?" |
50138 | Hell, how long can this go on? |
50138 | How are things going down there? |
50138 | How are you going to discharge this responsibility? |
50138 | How can this be anything but savage? |
50138 | How come, do n''t they eat? |
50138 | How did they do it? |
50138 | How did they get past your fear generators? |
50138 | How did we get out of this gallery? |
50138 | How did we vanish? 50138 How did you do it?" |
50138 | How did you find this place? |
50138 | How did you know I would follow you? |
50138 | How do I come closer to you? |
50138 | How in the hell will you get us to Asia? |
50138 | How many are there? |
50138 | How many millions died in Washington, Pittsburgh, and Chicago? |
50138 | How much farther before we get to-- Hell, where are we going anyhow? |
50138 | How the hell did you know me? |
50138 | How was it done? |
50138 | How was it up in that satellite? |
50138 | How will we ever root that bastard out of his hole now? |
50138 | How''d you get to heaven? |
50138 | How? |
50138 | How? |
50138 | How? |
50138 | However, I guess there is nothing I can do about it, is there? |
50138 | Huh? |
50138 | Hunh? 50138 Hunh?" |
50138 | I said,_ Who are you?_Cuso shouted again. |
50138 | If she comes back alive, you mean? |
50138 | In that case, since you already know about me-- how about it? |
50138 | In that case, who would shoot him? |
50138 | Is it possible, colonel, that you do not know everything? |
50138 | Is n''t there any place where we can hide? |
50138 | Is somebody supposed to? |
50138 | Is something going to happen? |
50138 | Is the pass too hot for more troops to go through it? |
50138 | Is there anything I can get for you? |
50138 | Is this all? |
50138 | Is this the one? |
50138 | Kurt, boy, where are you? |
50138 | Land the satellite, colonel? |
50138 | Last week? 50138 Marcia? |
50138 | Maybe we will be turtles? 50138 Mm?" |
50138 | Moscow? |
50138 | Nedra, what is it? |
50138 | Nedra, will you stop fussing with me? 50138 No more than that?" |
50138 | No problem? 50138 No rifles?" |
50138 | No? |
50138 | Not a citizen? |
50138 | Not alone? |
50138 | Not even tear gas? |
50138 | Not hot, eh? |
50138 | Now what do you see? |
50138 | Or do you want to go join him? |
50138 | Positive? |
50138 | Really? |
50138 | Rebuild what with what? |
50138 | Red- Dog Jimmie Thurman? 50138 Sam, huh?" |
50138 | Say--"An eel? |
50138 | Shall I shoot him, colonel? |
50138 | Spies? |
50138 | Sure of that? |
50138 | That makes things different, does n''t it? |
50138 | That would create the very danger you are trying to avoid, would it not? |
50138 | The big one? |
50138 | The blooper got a lot of''em, eh? |
50138 | The colonel followed you, eh? |
50138 | Then how in the hell did you expect to stay alive? |
50138 | Then how? |
50138 | Then it''s a race to see which side gets its bomb built first? |
50138 | Then we ca n''t change the course? |
50138 | Then what am I? |
50138 | Then what country do you claim to belong to? |
50138 | Then what do you propose-- to sit here and do nothing? |
50138 | Then what is it like? |
50138 | Then what is she doing up here? |
50138 | Then what is your purpose? |
50138 | Then who am I? |
50138 | Then who did? |
50138 | Then who did? |
50138 | Then who-- where? |
50138 | Then why are you two here? |
50138 | Then why did n''t you warn us? |
50138 | Then why did you let me do it? |
50138 | Then why do n''t we-- just take a little nap? |
50138 | Then you also know how these men here were put to sleep? |
50138 | To Asia? |
50138 | To me? |
50138 | Walk on skulls? |
50138 | Was there a face? |
50138 | We''ll have them on their knees in-- huh? 50138 Weapons?" |
50138 | Well, what if I am? 50138 Well, when and where do you want me to start?" |
50138 | Well, where do you get it? 50138 Well, you are not a citizen of--""Why do you think I need protection?" |
50138 | Were you going to say_ blessings_, colonel? |
50138 | Were you with this woman? |
50138 | West, how many of these kids did you have here? |
50138 | What about my gun that was taken from me while I slept? |
50138 | What about them? 50138 What about_ her_ life?" |
50138 | What are you doing up here? |
50138 | What are you looking for up here? |
50138 | What are you two talking about? |
50138 | What bomb? |
50138 | What color is red? |
50138 | What color was it last week? |
50138 | What do you do, raid the low country for supplies, like Cuso''s men? |
50138 | What do you know about the so- called new people? |
50138 | What do you mean? |
50138 | What do you think has happened to me? |
50138 | What do you think we have here? |
50138 | What good is it to go home? |
50138 | What good would one gun do now? |
50138 | What happened next? 50138 What happened?" |
50138 | What happened? |
50138 | What has happened to you? |
50138 | What have you done here? |
50138 | What have your liver and lights to do with this? |
50138 | What if you are wrong? |
50138 | What is it, Kurt? |
50138 | What is it, Kurt? |
50138 | What is it, Nedra? |
50138 | What is it? |
50138 | What is more reasonable than a corpse? |
50138 | What is she doing, learning to be a strip- tease dancer? |
50138 | What is that? |
50138 | What kind of nerves do you have? 50138 What made you lose your head?" |
50138 | What makes you think that? |
50138 | What on earth makes you ask a question like that? |
50138 | What the hell are you doing here? |
50138 | What the hell are you talking about? |
50138 | What the hell difference does it make? 50138 What the hell has happened to Nedra?" |
50138 | What the hell is this, a glorified whorehouse? |
50138 | What then? |
50138 | What was it? |
50138 | What was over there that was worth the cost of a blooper? |
50138 | What was the big boom over that way this morning? |
50138 | What were you two talking about? |
50138 | What would happen to the people here, and to me, if I revealed the existence of this instrument? |
50138 | What''s a strip- tease dancer? |
50138 | What''s death, suh? |
50138 | What''s going on here? |
50138 | What''s gone? |
50138 | What''s happening? |
50138 | What''s she doing behind him? |
50138 | What''s that? |
50138 | What''s the wilderness? |
50138 | What''s wrong? 50138 What''s wrong?" |
50138 | What''s wrong? |
50138 | What? |
50138 | What? |
50138 | When so many have died already, why should I hesitate to join them? |
50138 | Where are your weapons? |
50138 | Where did they go? 50138 Where did they go?" |
50138 | Where does all this grub come from? |
50138 | Where in the hell is that man on the speaker? |
50138 | Where''s my pack? |
50138 | Which way are they going now? |
50138 | Who are the new people? |
50138 | Who are you? |
50138 | Who did all of this? |
50138 | Who do you think she was, commander? |
50138 | Who has a better right than I? |
50138 | Who invented it? |
50138 | Who is that? |
50138 | Who is this? |
50138 | Who knows whether we shall meet again? |
50138 | Who the hell are you? |
50138 | Who will go with me to Asia? |
50138 | Why all the fol- de- rol? |
50138 | Why ca n''t I? |
50138 | Why did n''t you go with''em? |
50138 | Why did n''t you take me with you when you went-- wherever it was you went? |
50138 | Why did n''t you warn us? 50138 Why did you come back?" |
50138 | Why do n''t we go farther back? |
50138 | Why do n''t you put me over your shoulder and burp me? |
50138 | Why do you make that noise? |
50138 | Why do you suppose they did that? |
50138 | Why do you want to be last? |
50138 | Why is everybody going to sleep? 50138 Why not?" |
50138 | Why not? |
50138 | Why not? |
50138 | Why should n''t I look contented? 50138 Why were you following her?" |
50138 | Why would any man follow a woman like that? |
50138 | Why? |
50138 | Why? |
50138 | Why? |
50138 | Would I stand around here and let you shoot me if I was one of them? |
50138 | Would you cry, after you had shot me? |
50138 | Would you point out these blessings? |
50138 | Yes? 50138 You did it?" |
50138 | You did this? |
50138 | You did? |
50138 | You know what it''s like beyond death? |
50138 | You know what? |
50138 | You put us all to sleep, you and that girl? 50138 You think the Asians are gon na win, then?" |
50138 | You thought what? |
50138 | You want to ask her? |
50138 | You with''em? |
50138 | You? |
50138 | Your guess? 50138 Zen, old man, what are you up to?" |
50138 | And what-- what happened to Marcia?" |
50138 | Are they shamming too?" |
50138 | Are you out of your mind again?" |
50138 | Are you still determined to volunteer for that position, or should I say_ condition_?" |
50138 | Are you sure?" |
50138 | Are you surprised at what you find here?" |
50138 | Are you?" |
50138 | As to what she is doing, maybe she got tired of all that down there too, and decided to come up here and live in the mountains?" |
50138 | Ask her what she is doing up here?" |
50138 | Besides, has he not promised me a commission as a marshal in the armed forces of his land?" |
50138 | But how did you know?" |
50138 | But if she comes back dead, or so loaded with radiation that she will die within a few days, then you will know she was just like all the rest of us?" |
50138 | But if you did n''t do this, who did?" |
50138 | But what do you wish of me?" |
50138 | But what if you are mistaken?" |
50138 | But what makes you think I would be interested in such a commission-- or in any commission-- in your armies?" |
50138 | But what power? |
50138 | But what the hell are you doing up here?" |
50138 | But why was she coming up here?" |
50138 | But-- how does this radar work? |
50138 | But-- what to say? |
50138 | Clothes? |
50138 | Could all of these people read his mind? |
50138 | Cuddling the youth''s head in his lap as one would a frightened child, he asked,"What happened, Carl?" |
50138 | Describe the little man for you? |
50138 | Did he know what had happened here? |
50138 | Did n''t she know that she had escaped from Ed only to fall into the tender mercies of Cuso''s men? |
50138 | Did you not see everything in our center here?" |
50138 | Do n''t you engage in it?" |
50138 | Do n''t you know?" |
50138 | Do n''t you think I''ve got enough sense to take cover?" |
50138 | Do n''t you understand what has happened? |
50138 | Do you know how many millions of people died directly or indirectly in that bomb explosion?" |
50138 | Do you know what it means?" |
50138 | Do you live around here?" |
50138 | Do you mean to tell me you can actually see what is going on inside the country of the enemy?" |
50138 | Do you think the Earth would remain in its orbit if this happened?" |
50138 | Error in the instrument? |
50138 | For what? |
50138 | Had a modern Noah appeared and not been recognized? |
50138 | Had she followed the youth? |
50138 | Had some subtle, odorless gas been introduced into the room? |
50138 | Had the sound been present all the time? |
50138 | Had the work here been an effort to escape that future? |
50138 | He followed me, did n''t he? |
50138 | He started to add another word,"Alone?" |
50138 | How could a dead man build anything? |
50138 | How could any human being stay in bed alone when that beautiful bronze creature was going through her swaying dance? |
50138 | How did the men in the reports you read get into the planes that were about to crash? |
50138 | How did they do it?" |
50138 | How do you know?" |
50138 | How had she known he was following her? |
50138 | Human mistake? |
50138 | I mean, do n''t you go?" |
50138 | I mean, was anyone present?" |
50138 | If she thought he had read her mind, did this mean that she was actually capable of reading his thoughts? |
50138 | If the new people found it convenient to disintegrate their sewage, rather than dispose of it by the conventional method, what else could they do? |
50138 | If they did, what would they do? |
50138 | Is it bedtime?" |
50138 | It''s true, is n''t it?" |
50138 | Looking up at him, she said,"You think I''m one of the new people, do n''t you?" |
50138 | More important, where was she leading him? |
50138 | Most important of all, why was she trying to save him when her own life was in danger? |
50138 | Or did these people slide forever into nothingness, into some dimensional interspace where there was no Earth, no moon, and no stars? |
50138 | Or does killing the second one merely make it more likely that a third one will have to be destroyed?" |
50138 | Or had it come into existence just before the fat youth vanished? |
50138 | Or had that dream been a grim prognostication of the way things were to be on the surface of the third planet out from the sun? |
50138 | Or is it the other way around?" |
50138 | Or perhaps you did not know this?" |
50138 | Or was it sorrow? |
50138 | Or would it?" |
50138 | So you are emotionally interested in her?" |
50138 | Talk about the beauties of flowers and read poetry to each other? |
50138 | Tell me honestly, colonel, would not this happen?" |
50138 | Then, as the implications back of the question caught him,"Are n''t you on the same level? |
50138 | There are other ways-- how do you say it?" |
50138 | They had their chance, but they failed to develop.__ Where, now, are the dinosaurs?__ The Law is-- Grow or Die. |
50138 | VIII"Is the center in here?" |
50138 | Was he actually witnessing one of the miracles performed by the new people? |
50138 | Was he dealing with a madman? |
50138 | Was he dying? |
50138 | Was it the appearance again of the face that had looked from the air in the center of the room? |
50138 | Was mind reading actually commonplace here? |
50138 | Was she playing games, making fun? |
50138 | Was she, then, a normal human being? |
50138 | Was this underground cavern really a modern Ark, dug into the heart of a mountain so that at least a few humans might escape the deluge by fire? |
50138 | Were the grave and the thick files the only remaining evidence that at least one human had dared to dream of a new day? |
50138 | Were the vanished people to reappear, armed with new weapons, and take the Asians prisoners? |
50138 | Were you together?" |
50138 | What are you doing up here? |
50138 | What caused it, shock?" |
50138 | What difference does it make?" |
50138 | What gas? |
50138 | What is the purpose back of this savagery, if it is not to force men to learn and to grow? |
50138 | What kind of people were they, to be able to walk through hell and be uninfluenced by it? |
50138 | What resources were his to command, what troops, what weapons? |
50138 | What was he waiting for? |
50138 | What was it? |
50138 | What was that you just said? |
50138 | What was that?" |
50138 | What would happen after darkness fell? |
50138 | What would happen when the bomb landed? |
50138 | What''s that?" |
50138 | What''s wrong with that? |
50138 | When had this happened? |
50138 | When he had finished, the senior member, an admiral, asked breathlessly,"And then what happened to her, commander?" |
50138 | When?" |
50138 | Where would he find himself if he vanished? |
50138 | Where you been?" |
50138 | Who cared? |
50138 | Who had introduced it? |
50138 | Who keeps tab on where the boys and the girls spend the night?" |
50138 | Who knew? |
50138 | Who landed Colonel Grant''s space satellite? |
50138 | Who provided the power to energize the motion? |
50138 | Who says it ca n''t be done?" |
50138 | Who slipped out while my back was turned?" |
50138 | Who steered it? |
50138 | Who--""Did you know I knew about Grant?" |
50138 | Why desert when you''ve had it?" |
50138 | Why did you come up here in the first place? |
50138 | Why did you let so many of us die so unnecessarily?" |
50138 | Why go back to what is n''t there?" |
50138 | Why had she let him do it? |
50138 | Why not give up now and be done with all tragedy, with all tears, with all trying to find the road to the future? |
50138 | Why should he be wishing this? |
50138 | Why trust this one? |
50138 | Why would the race mind permit such an outrage as this? |
50138 | Why? |
50138 | Why?" |
50138 | Would people who did n''t use toilets spend nights together? |
50138 | You will come down the trail with us, wo n''t you?" |
50138 | _ N- oten._ Where did they go? |
50138 | _ Would_ he find himself again? |
49525 | ''Why should we?'' 49525 ... and who_ are_ these Lensmen, anyway?" |
49525 | A drink? |
49525 | A lot of road, eh? |
49525 | A mutant? 49525 A small, cold one?" |
49525 | After all, perfectly nice people do meet informally on shipboard; why not in concourses? |
49525 | After you get it made, what are you going to do with it in case nothing happens? |
49525 | Against anything the Galactic Patrol can swing? |
49525 | Ai n''t you getting tired of sticking around here, George? |
49525 | Alex? |
49525 | Allotropic iron, U-235, or plutonium? |
49525 | And I suppose you want me to blast back to Tellus? |
49525 | And have you, by any chance, been paying any attention to what I have been telling you? |
49525 | And in the case of Spaceways, not normal? |
49525 | And is there anything cheerful about that? |
49525 | And just what do you think you''re going to do with me? |
49525 | And murders? 49525 And now, I wonder what that daughter of mine is doing? |
49525 | And the rest of you...? 49525 And then?" |
49525 | And what have they got that makes them so tough? |
49525 | And what have you deduced? |
49525 | And what would you name it? 49525 And what would you think might be in that package? |
49525 | And you and Dronvire are sitting idly by, doing nothing, of course? |
49525 | Anything in their hand- bags, Mase? |
49525 | Are n''t you even going to kiss mama goodbye, baby boy? |
49525 | Are them the plants we''re going to get, boss? |
49525 | Are you innocent enough to think you''ll get out of this building alive if I do n''t accept you? |
49525 | Are you or have you been, reading my mind? |
49525 | Are you photographing this, Lance? |
49525 | Are you sure there''s air-- and they''ll pick us up? 49525 Are you_ sure_ you''re all right, Samms?" |
49525 | Atmospheric vibrations? 49525 Back so soon? |
49525 | Boskone? 49525 But ca n''t they be screened out?" |
49525 | But enough of me-- how are you doing? |
49525 | But surely they can not be of any use? |
49525 | But what makes you think Herkimer here never took one of the same? |
49525 | But when I die, will it be a perpetual menace? |
49525 | But who are you going to send first, Virge? |
49525 | But why now? 49525 But would n''t the very fact of such rigid restrictions operate against morale? |
49525 | But you have nothing concrete to go on, I take it? |
49525 | But... no reprisals? |
49525 | Buy me a drink, mister? 49525 Ca n''t believe that any woman_ can_ be Herkimer- proof, eh? |
49525 | Can they match that or not? |
49525 | Can you talk now? |
49525 | Can_ you_ talk sense, Mase? 49525 Captain Willoughby?" |
49525 | Clio? |
49525 | Coming with us, Rod? |
49525 | Count_ her_ out, with all the stuff she''s got? 49525 Cuddly and baby- talkish? |
49525 | Democracy? 49525 Deny it? |
49525 | Dexitroboping has to do with... nourishment? 49525 Did I act as though I thought it was? |
49525 | Did any of you-- Costigan?--see any signs of a concerted rush, such as there would have been to get the killer away if we had n''t interfered? |
49525 | Did n''t I? 49525 Did n''t he add''and_ stay_ scrammed''?" |
49525 | Did that signal, by any chance, originate anywhere near seventeen hours and plus ten degrees? |
49525 | Did you boys listen in on his Casper speech last night? |
49525 | Die? 49525 Direction-- got a compass?" |
49525 | Disappeared? 49525 Distance sixty nine point two--_that_ all? |
49525 | Do I need to answer that? |
49525 | Do I? 49525 Do you call that horrible wound a_ scratch_?" |
49525 | Do you know why? |
49525 | Do you pronounce that or sneeze it? 49525 Do you remember what happened because the pirates learned to duplicate the golden meteor of the Triplanetary Service?" |
49525 | Do you see any detector rigs? |
49525 | Do you think it''s actually_ alive_, sir? 49525 Do you think you can get away with_ this_?" |
49525 | Do you want the job? 49525 Does it work?" |
49525 | Dwarf in the Trojan? |
49525 | Eight foot checkerwork to the hangin'', anyway, huh? |
49525 | Fred? 49525 From when?" |
49525 | Going fishing, huh? |
49525 | Got your maps? |
49525 | Has n''t it radiated_ yet_? |
49525 | Have any of the observers spotted anything, high up or far off? |
49525 | Have we got time enough? |
49525 | Have you any additional orders or instructions? |
49525 | Have you got a spy- ray into that lock- box yet? |
49525 | How about calling a Council conference on it? |
49525 | How about coming back to Tellus with me, Virge? |
49525 | How about the glory holes? |
49525 | How about the home planet, then? |
49525 | How d''ya like your new boss, May? |
49525 | How did_ that_ happen, Jack? |
49525 | How did_ that_ happen? 49525 How do you know-- another of your hunches?" |
49525 | How do you like_ them_ potatoes? |
49525 | How do you want it; voice, or Lens, or both? |
49525 | How long can you make a drill last? |
49525 | How low do you go? |
49525 | How many of you others agree with Corander; how many with Ohlanser? |
49525 | How wide a sag you figurin''on, Supe? |
49525 | How? |
49525 | How_ sure_ are you of this, Miss Samms? |
49525 | Huh? 49525 Huh? |
49525 | Huh? 49525 Huh? |
49525 | Huh? |
49525 | Huh? |
49525 | Huh? |
49525 | Huh? |
49525 | Huh? |
49525 | Hunting? 49525 Hush- hush? |
49525 | I suppose that it will be all right... that is, I can call on you again, if...? |
49525 | I take it, then, that there is no objection to her going? |
49525 | I''d better get at this, sir, do n''t you think, and let Operation Boskone go for a while? |
49525 | If I did have, do you think I''d be standing here talking to you? |
49525 | If you_ dared_? |
49525 | In spite of being over seven feet tall? 49525 In what respects?" |
49525 | Including Department Q? 49525 Is Tallick here, or anywhere on the planet?" |
49525 | Is it possible for you, sir or madam, to give me a moment of your time? |
49525 | Is there a doctor here? |
49525 | It has improved, then, lately? |
49525 | It''s perfectly safe here, you think? |
49525 | Jack and Mase-- I do n''t suppose you looked? |
49525 | Jill, do you agree with what Rod here has just told me? |
49525 | Jill, will you please explain why they have to waste as big a man as Kinnison on such a piffling job as president? 49525 Jill? |
49525 | Jones? 49525 Just a word, if you will, Mr. Samms, as to these trials and the White Book?" |
49525 | Just for my information, Mr. Isaacson, how many predecessors have I had on this particular job, and what happened to them? 49525 Just like that, huh?" |
49525 | Kill you, my pet? 49525 Look around, will you? |
49525 | Married? |
49525 | May I offer a suggestion, sir? |
49525 | May I take a moment of this idle time in which to spread my visualization, for enlargement and instruction? |
49525 | Me? 49525 Me? |
49525 | More men left than I thought-- how many-- half of''em? |
49525 | Mucker? |
49525 | Murgatroyd, do you suppose? |
49525 | No Lensman material here, you say, Rod? |
49525 | No guns? |
49525 | No invasion or occupation? 49525 No... o... o...?" |
49525 | No? 49525 No? |
49525 | No? |
49525 | Not enough to turn on_ anything_--not even the purifiers? |
49525 | Not whether I_ could_ have or not-- I couldn''t-- but_ should_ I have, Spud? |
49525 | Not_ exactly_ parallel? |
49525 | Now is the time for all good men and true to come to the aid of the party, eh? |
49525 | Now, Vice- Admiral Ohlanser...."How do you, a stranger, know my name? |
49525 | Now_ should_ I have shot her, or not? |
49525 | Of course not-- but did I use any language that would burn out the transmitters? 49525 Oh, does''oo?" |
49525 | Oh, you did? 49525 Oh... how? |
49525 | Ohlanser, then, who assumed command, is also a Petrino? 49525 One more question, Miss Samms?" |
49525 | Or Bergenholm at least? 49525 Or are you trying to set up a paradox?" |
49525 | Or been approached, or moved? |
49525 | Or did somebody tell you something? 49525 Or is it something I should not mention?" |
49525 | Ordinary or extraordinary, what matter? 49525 P- p- pine...?" |
49525 | Peace? 49525 Q as in''quiet'', eh? |
49525 | Quadruple second cousins? 49525 Ready to visit them, via Lens?" |
49525 | Ready? |
49525 | Rigelston, I would translate it? |
49525 | Rod? 49525 Rushton Boulevard, you think, Mase?" |
49525 | Shall I blow the air, sir? |
49525 | Shall we go out now an''start pickin''''em? |
49525 | Shall we spy- ray him, Virge? 49525 Shoving off early?" |
49525 | Since you do not drink, and since you were not in search of feminine... er... companionship, just why did you go down to Roaring Jack''s dive? |
49525 | Sirs, which of your Magnificences is officially the commander of this here bucket of odds and ends at the present instant? |
49525 | So you know? |
49525 | So? 49525 So?" |
49525 | Somebody must have done a terrific job of selling, to make you believe that... or_ are_ you sold, actually? |
49525 | Something slip? |
49525 | Space- happy? 49525 Support? |
49525 | Sure that was all? |
49525 | Sure, but what do_ they_ care? |
49525 | Tallick? 49525 Thanks, Skipper, but might n''t it be just as well,"he jerked his head inconspicuously toward the other officers,"to play the string out, this trip? |
49525 | That all? |
49525 | That was Spaceways, under cover? |
49525 | That''s enough, Rod, do n''t you think? |
49525 | The girl? 49525 The good old oil, eh?" |
49525 | The lunch- box, then, will be slightly special? |
49525 | The_ Chicago_? 49525 Then I-- I alone-- of all the entities in existence, can wear this particular Lens?" |
49525 | Then you can conceive of the desirability of working with non- Palainian entities toward an end which would benefit both races? |
49525 | There''ll be nothing doing here tonight, will there? |
49525 | They go crazy, eh? |
49525 | They''re not pikers, anyway, are they? 49525 Think you so?" |
49525 | This altruism-- what good is it? 49525 This arouses my curiosity no end-- does it merely complicate the thionite problem, or does it set up an entirely new problem? |
49525 | This where we''re going to land? |
49525 | This, I believe, concludes the business of the meeting? |
49525 | Too damn much water too soon, huh? |
49525 | Um... m... m. Put that away, it does n''t sound so good, does it? 49525 WHAT? |
49525 | WHERE ARE YOU FROM? 49525 Want me, Jill?" |
49525 | Want to know why he''s doing such a quick flit? |
49525 | Was n''t she the most perfectly_ beautiful_ thing you ever saw? |
49525 | We won-- technically-- I guess-- or did we? 49525 Well, Virge-- satisfied?" |
49525 | Well, are n''t you curious to know what it is? |
49525 | Well, my skeptical and pessimistic friend, was I lying, or not? |
49525 | Well, say that once upon a time there were two men named Albert and Chester...."What? 49525 Well, then, can Samms?" |
49525 | Well, then,Samms thought, almost viciously,"can you introduce me to someone who is stupider, sillier, and more foolish than you are?" |
49525 | Well? |
49525 | Well? |
49525 | Wha''s the idea of that damn surveyor lying to us like that? |
49525 | What am I here for, then? |
49525 | What are the symptoms? 49525 What are those mounds along the streets?" |
49525 | What did you do? |
49525 | What did you expect? 49525 What difference does it make?" |
49525 | What do you mean by_ that_ crack? |
49525 | What do you mean? |
49525 | What do you think should be done about him? |
49525 | What do you think you''re going to do? |
49525 | What do you want to get into it for? |
49525 | What do_ you_ think? 49525 What do_ you_ think?" |
49525 | What else? 49525 What gives? |
49525 | What in hell''s behind this? 49525 What is it, Virge?" |
49525 | What is reality? |
49525 | What is the opposition? |
49525 | What is there along that line? |
49525 | What kind of a car are you in? |
49525 | What next, sir? |
49525 | What of it? 49525 What ship shall we take, and when?" |
49525 | What the hell goes on here? |
49525 | What was the solution? |
49525 | What would I do with it? |
49525 | What would we use for time? 49525 What would you say, then, to the idea of this office being our real headquarters, of that little package there being our real business?" |
49525 | What would you use for a case? 49525 What''s the matter, Rod?" |
49525 | What''s the matter, Virge? |
49525 | What, then? |
49525 | What? 49525 What? |
49525 | What? 49525 What? |
49525 | What? 49525 When can you go? |
49525 | Where are you and what are you doing? |
49525 | Where are you, Jill? |
49525 | Where were you? |
49525 | Where''s Jones? |
49525 | Whither away, pilot? |
49525 | Who knows? |
49525 | Who of this club would be most interested in becoming a Lensman? |
49525 | Who''s being heroic now, Rod? |
49525 | Why did you stop_ here_? |
49525 | Why do n''t you go to Arisia and be tested for one? 49525 Why does n''t it back up or turn around? |
49525 | Why not, indeed? 49525 Why not? |
49525 | Why not? 49525 Why not?" |
49525 | Why not? |
49525 | Why not? |
49525 | Why talk, when we could be eating? 49525 Why was I not killed? |
49525 | Why, indeed? |
49525 | Why? 49525 Why? |
49525 | Why? |
49525 | Why? |
49525 | Will you need me any more, Doctor Murray? |
49525 | Winfield to First Lensman Samms-- you will be ready to blast off at twenty one hundred? |
49525 | With all this enthusiasm? 49525 Without knowing what the job is or how much it pays?" |
49525 | Without my boys-- the backbone and the guts of North America, as well as of the Patrol? 49525 Wonder how we came out? |
49525 | Yes, Jack?... 49525 Yes, Knobos? |
49525 | Yes, Miss Regan? |
49525 | Yes, Virge? |
49525 | Yes, sir? |
49525 | Yes? |
49525 | Yes? |
49525 | Yes? |
49525 | Yes? |
49525 | Yes? |
49525 | You already know the Lens? |
49525 | You are not even sending your fleet, or heavy units of it, with us, to see to it that we follow your instructions? |
49525 | You are sure of these observational facts? |
49525 | You are, I think, familiar with my parentage? |
49525 | You called Deke? |
49525 | You can, then, produce Lenses yourselves? |
49525 | You do n''t know? 49525 You do n''t think, then, that there is any chance?" |
49525 | You do not look like an Italian, but perhaps you have enough of that racial heritage to believe in prophecy? |
49525 | You had no trouble in recognizing me, then, my dear? |
49525 | You hope they do? |
49525 | You know what this is? |
49525 | You mean you are n''t going to kill me, even now? 49525 You observed and understood? |
49525 | You saw that, Alex? 49525 You think I''m safe, then?" |
49525 | You think they''d last until the next pay- day if they start playing that kind of ball? 49525 You up there ahead of me?" |
49525 | You wanted a diversion, did n''t you? |
49525 | You would n''t have, by any chance, been considering the idea of...? |
49525 | You would not be unduly surprised to learn that substances other than uranium occasionally reach Northport? |
49525 | You would? 49525 You''re telling me?" |
49525 | You''ve got some duty- dances, of course..."_ Some?_ I''ve got a list as long as from here to there! 49525 You, who have been so afraid of us for over two thousand million Tellurian years that you dared not let us even learn of you? |
49525 | Your scouts sounded me out; what did they tell you? 49525 Yourself first, the organization second?" |
49525 | _ Fourth_ Officer? 49525 _ Lovers!_ Who the hell ever said we were lovers?... |
49525 | _ Recent_ periodicity? |
49525 | _ Spaceways!_ Isaacson? |
49525 | _ Was ist los_, Stu? 49525 _ What?_"Kinnison exclaimed, then fell silent. |
49525 | _ Who_ says so, the dirty, sneaking liars? |
49525 | ''_ Virgilia_'', I suppose?" |
49525 | *****"That buttons thionite up, do n''t you think?" |
49525 | ... but I wonder... with the Lens perhaps telephones are superfluous? |
49525 | A_ tour de force_? |
49525 | After the fact, it is easy to say that he should have continued his personal supervision of Earth, but can that view be defended? |
49525 | All right?" |
49525 | All the comforts of home, eh?" |
49525 | Altruism? |
49525 | An''I was due to take the deep breath the next week, see? |
49525 | And Clayton and Schweikert and the rest of the gang? |
49525 | And Jack? |
49525 | And Riley? |
49525 | And a dance, huh?" |
49525 | And above all, how about Jill?" |
49525 | And as for a machine, what finer one is possible than the Patrol? |
49525 | And can you duplicate his machine?" |
49525 | And even had he thought it worth while to make such a glaring exception, would not the fused Elders of Arisia have intervened? |
49525 | And how can we make the approach? |
49525 | And how? |
49525 | And if the absentee were not to be found on Earth, what of it? |
49525 | And if they were to be forced out of normal space, what matter? |
49525 | And just where does that put the Palainians?" |
49525 | And now we''d better get to work, do n''t you think?" |
49525 | And say, from the throw of the pump and the volume of the sump, will you give me the best estimate you can of how much time we''ve got? |
49525 | And the major reason?" |
49525 | And to complete my argument, you work with other Palainians, do you not, to reach a common goal?" |
49525 | And what would they do about it?" |
49525 | And when can you go to work?" |
49525 | And when they grew up-- half way up, that is....""Do n''t tell me that we are going to suppose that all those identical twins married each other?" |
49525 | And when? |
49525 | And where do you go from there?" |
49525 | And where? |
49525 | And why Virgil Samms?" |
49525 | And why had some of that dexitroboper''s-- whatever_ that_ meant!--thoughts come in so beautifully sharp and clear and plain while others...? |
49525 | And why would anybody want to make such an all- out effort to get rid of you? |
49525 | And why, the reader asks, were not at least some of those named persons arrested before Election Day? |
49525 | And you others?" |
49525 | And you?" |
49525 | And...?" |
49525 | Animal, vegetable, or mineral?" |
49525 | Another hunch?" |
49525 | Anybody else covered?" |
49525 | Anybody except me wearing a pistol? |
49525 | Are n''t you holding back maybe just a little bit of a suspicion, for diplomatic reasons?" |
49525 | Are not some of them...?" |
49525 | Are you by any chance either hungry or thirsty?" |
49525 | Are you in trouble? |
49525 | Are you loose- screwed enough to actually think I would ask or need your permission? |
49525 | Are you pretty sure, Jill, that Herkimer is a key man?" |
49525 | Are you?" |
49525 | Are you_ sure_ of that? |
49525 | Atmospheric_ vibrations_?" |
49525 | Beauties? |
49525 | Been able to find out anything more about it?" |
49525 | Bergenholm passed you, of course?" |
49525 | Bergenholm?" |
49525 | Better we take it up with the boss, do n''t you think?" |
49525 | Better?" |
49525 | Black? |
49525 | Born with second sight-- or whatever it is?" |
49525 | But I gather, from what you have said, that I would probably not be given a Lens to use purely for my own selfish purposes?" |
49525 | But Mase would, before he went to bed-- or would he? |
49525 | But Ossmen is clean, you say, Jack? |
49525 | But about this stumping-- you said I''d better start as soon as we get back?" |
49525 | But are n''t you over- drawing a bit? |
49525 | But could n''t the voters tell easily enough which side was on the offensive and which on the defensive? |
49525 | But did you say a_ cold_ lemon sour?" |
49525 | But how many of your sons and daughters has Roderick Kinnison murdered, either personally or through his uniformed slaves? |
49525 | But how of these, my other friends? |
49525 | But how... oh, those?" |
49525 | But if he''s such a mental giant, why is n''t he getting results with his own problem, the meteor? |
49525 | But in spite of what you said about''ducking''politics, what have you got Northrop, Jill and Fairchild doing?" |
49525 | But is it something else, as well? |
49525 | But notice one beautiful thing about this story?" |
49525 | But now-- and I''ve got my ears pinned back-- what was it you started to say about pirates?" |
49525 | But the big break was-- you remember the disappearance of that girls''-school cruise ship?" |
49525 | But the field is so_ big_--how do you expect to find him? |
49525 | But the reason for this call is to ask you if you have anything new, however slight, to add to our very small knowledge of Zwilnik?" |
49525 | But there''s a note on my pad that he wants to see me sometime today-- suppose we have him come in now?" |
49525 | But we''ll get ours, huh?" |
49525 | But what makes you think that she''s anything to be afraid of? |
49525 | But what the hell else can we do?" |
49525 | But you and Mase, Jack?" |
49525 | But you have never been in thionite?" |
49525 | But you have suspicions or ideas? |
49525 | But you know what, Molly?" |
49525 | But, if Morgan were really the Big Shot, would he have deigned to interview personally such small fry as Olmstead? |
49525 | But-- can you stand transfer?" |
49525 | By analogy, and since Isaacson is apparently on the same level as Towne, immediately below Morgan....""Would n''t there be three? |
49525 | By being dumb?" |
49525 | By the way, you do n''t know yet who is going to carry it, do you?" |
49525 | By what stretch of the imagination do you figure that you can find anybody with a loose enough mouth to out- lie and out- promise Morgan? |
49525 | Ca n''t you raise_ anybody_?" |
49525 | Can do?" |
49525 | Can things be_ that_ rotten, really?" |
49525 | Can you and will you give me a chart of a routing from here to Palain Seven?" |
49525 | Can you classify''em from here, Jack?" |
49525 | Can you feature that? |
49525 | Can you give me the shortest possible distance?" |
49525 | Can you see any more of them, either of you?" |
49525 | Can you stand up yet?" |
49525 | Can you use a sap?" |
49525 | Can you?" |
49525 | Check?" |
49525 | Check?" |
49525 | Closing up, he asked:"Where are you taking that baggage, Charley?" |
49525 | Come into my office, will you, Rod?" |
49525 | Coming?" |
49525 | Confidential, sort of...?" |
49525 | Converted into... what? |
49525 | Could that constellation be Orion? |
49525 | Could the range of detection then be increased?" |
49525 | Could_ anybody_ build a bomb that powerful? |
49525 | Cylinder? |
49525 | DalNalten, I do n''t suppose it would be quite bright for you to go swimming down there too, would it?" |
49525 | Dead men, ringers, repeaters, ballot- box stuffing, and so on, you said?" |
49525 | Did Brainerd act or look nervous, toward the last? |
49525 | Did it? |
49525 | Did n''t you believe I knew what I was talking about?" |
49525 | Did you hear what the boss told''em today?" |
49525 | Did you think that moving upstairs would make a boot- licker out of me?" |
49525 | Disintegrated? |
49525 | Distance only, or is somebody on your tail?" |
49525 | Do I get heaved out between planets without a space- suit, or not?" |
49525 | Do either of you know him?" |
49525 | Do n''t you know that_ nobody_ can get anywhere near that damn planet?" |
49525 | Do you others agree? |
49525 | Do you want to come peaceably or shall I work on your neck again?" |
49525 | Do you, about yours?" |
49525 | Do you?" |
49525 | Does not the fact that we ceased hostilities so soon mean anything to you?" |
49525 | Does the Council think it''s got a man with enough dynage to lift the load?" |
49525 | Each of you has taken oath to the Galactic Patrol?" |
49525 | Even if we could find him... and by the way, what do you think the chance is of our spies finding him?" |
49525 | Fair enough?" |
49525 | Father told you about the way I work, I suppose?" |
49525 | First Lensman Samms, sir...?" |
49525 | Fishing?" |
49525 | Five levels above you are dead, you know, so....""Dead? |
49525 | Five years, let us say?" |
49525 | Flew away? |
49525 | Follow him? |
49525 | From where?" |
49525 | Funny, is n''t it, how hard it is to stop, even when you are n''t in any particular hurry? |
49525 | Go to Arisia?" |
49525 | Got your spotting screens full out, Mase?" |
49525 | Guess I''ll eat now-- join me in a sandwich and some hot coffee or a cold lemon sour or cherry soda?" |
49525 | Have I been too rough?" |
49525 | Have any of you boys anything to say? |
49525 | Have n''t we been eating out of the same dish for lo, these many moons? |
49525 | Have n''t you any idea who he is?" |
49525 | Have those big suns got any planets?" |
49525 | Have you any idea how long it will be? |
49525 | Have you any idea where?" |
49525 | Have you any other material, not necessarily facts, which may have bearing?" |
49525 | Have you any specific project in mind?" |
49525 | Have you got a little girl- friend, too?" |
49525 | Have you got a man you can break in to take your place here?" |
49525 | He likes little, cuddly baby- talkers, who pretend to be utterly spineless and completely brainless-- eh, Jack?" |
49525 | Her father? |
49525 | Heroin, hadive, and ladolian, was n''t it? |
49525 | How about it?" |
49525 | How about me giving the boys a briefing on it, right now?" |
49525 | How about the_ Bolivar_ and the_ Himalaya_? |
49525 | How about throwing a globe around Eridan?" |
49525 | How about time? |
49525 | How about you, Mase? |
49525 | How about you, Vice- Admiral Corander? |
49525 | How about you? |
49525 | How about your identical- twin cousins, Ray and George Olmstead, who have been doing such a terrific job of counter- spying?" |
49525 | How are you coming with Operation Bennett?" |
49525 | How can I know or report the exact mass, length, and orientation of single hairs?" |
49525 | How can a man of that caliber have been kicking around so long without me knowing anything about him?" |
49525 | How come?" |
49525 | How could they-- really-- exist as they seemed to exist? |
49525 | How could you possibly have overcome-- reconciled-- a situation so full of conflict?" |
49525 | How did you do it, Olmstead?" |
49525 | How did you know?" |
49525 | How do they get that way?" |
49525 | How do you expect me to build up a staff if you snatch every good man I find away from me?" |
49525 | How do you figure that?" |
49525 | How do you figure_ that_ puts her in my class?" |
49525 | How do you suppose I lived to get as old as I am now? |
49525 | How does it work?" |
49525 | How many of them had Tworn had to disable? |
49525 | How much detection have you got out?" |
49525 | How much radioactivity will it stand?" |
49525 | How often, would you say, do they have to come here to service this station-- change tapes, and whatever else might be necessary?" |
49525 | How say you, Bergenholm of Tellus? |
49525 | How was the crew taking it? |
49525 | How would you like to kick him from Panama City to the North Pole?" |
49525 | How would''Director of Research''sound?" |
49525 | How..._ how_... HOW could he do what he had to do? |
49525 | How? |
49525 | How?" |
49525 | How?" |
49525 | How_ could_ it happen? |
49525 | However....""What?" |
49525 | I am the first Tellurian you have met?" |
49525 | I ask you, Chief, does that make sense?" |
49525 | I assume that you four wish to continue at work?" |
49525 | I do n''t know of anything at all out that way, do you? |
49525 | I have drawn every picture I can think of with Isaacson in the driver''s seat, but none of them fit?" |
49525 | I never saw one close up before, did you? |
49525 | I think I''ll call Jill now, before I go-- wonder where she is? |
49525 | I want a spy- ray op-- is it safe to use Fred?" |
49525 | I wonder what this Dr. Olmstead does with his spare cash?" |
49525 | I wonder, though, if you knew how much of it was testing?" |
49525 | I wonder....""Why not have the boys in-- Jill, too-- and thrash it out?" |
49525 | I wonder...?" |
49525 | I''m ignoring you, too-- like this, see?" |
49525 | I''m still on your track?" |
49525 | If it has other powers... what are they?" |
49525 | If that trooper had known what was in the box beside his leg he probably would have fallen over backward; but how was he even to suspect? |
49525 | If they did n''t know about him, why the ships-- especially the big battlewagons? |
49525 | If they did think he might be out there somewhere, why did n''t they go and find out?" |
49525 | If, ten years ago, anyone had told you that such a race as the Rigellians existed, what would you have thought? |
49525 | In a place like this?" |
49525 | In force? |
49525 | In the meantime, who''s calling? |
49525 | Instead:"I would like to show you, if I may, the above- ground part of our Works?" |
49525 | Is he actually in supreme command?" |
49525 | Is he alone?" |
49525 | Is n''t that true, copper?" |
49525 | Is that clear?" |
49525 | Is the fault mine? |
49525 | It is, I now perceive, the Lens which makes this full accord possible, and it is basically about the Lens that you are here?" |
49525 | It would not take too many scouts, would it?" |
49525 | Jones almost screamed,"Can I dog the damn thing down?" |
49525 | Just how far down are you willing to start?" |
49525 | Kinnison exclaimed,"Can you''scopists see it on him?" |
49525 | Kinnison?" |
49525 | Kragzex?" |
49525 | Let me carry some of that plunder?" |
49525 | Let''s call it off, shall we? |
49525 | Like charges, repelling each other inversely as the square of the distance? |
49525 | ME? |
49525 | Maybe they''re going to make us breathe space....""Huh? |
49525 | Maybe you saw him talking to me a while back?" |
49525 | Measure this scratch, will you? |
49525 | Minutes? |
49525 | Miss Reed, get me Rand... Rand? |
49525 | Morgan began then to worry, but there was nothing he could do about the situation-- or was there? |
49525 | No indemnities to your Patrol, or reparations? |
49525 | No punishment of us, our men, or our families?" |
49525 | No thionite involved anywhere?" |
49525 | No, it must be more specific... Rigelsville? |
49525 | Nobody''s put a beam on him yet, have you?" |
49525 | Not a fleet, probably-- the_ Boise_? |
49525 | Not even a spy- ray block?" |
49525 | Not having much luck catching Mr. Black, are they?" |
49525 | Not two Irishmen named Pat and Mike? |
49525 | Nothing you could have done would have....""You know my name?" |
49525 | Now if we can come that close to winning an absolutely honest election, how do you figure we can possibly lose the kind this one is going to be? |
49525 | Now if you will step just a little closer to the mike, please, Mr. Samms, or should I say...?" |
49525 | Now would he please quit bellyaching and get to hell out? |
49525 | Now, how many of you jaspers have got your emergency kits on you? |
49525 | Now, sir, what everybody wants to know is-- who are the Blacks?" |
49525 | Now-- how are the Geigers on the outside of the Hill behaving?" |
49525 | Now-- you noticed, of course, the vote at the end of the meeting?" |
49525 | Number Four, you said, darling?" |
49525 | Of all the hells in space, why Arisia? |
49525 | Of course, we will soon have our own Galactic credit system worked out, but....""What the hell difference would_ that_ make?" |
49525 | Oh, those? |
49525 | On the Lens, sir?" |
49525 | Or Mase? |
49525 | Or better yet, one of those people it told about in those funny old books they dug up last year-- liege lords, or something like that, remember? |
49525 | Or both? |
49525 | Or both?" |
49525 | Or days? |
49525 | Or do you know where he is?" |
49525 | Or do you think I am?" |
49525 | Or even degrade me, or put me under arrest?" |
49525 | Or is he?" |
49525 | Or is it? |
49525 | Or the_ Chicago_?" |
49525 | Or was Olmstead''s job of more importance than he, Samms, had supposed? |
49525 | Or was n''t he holding her-- had the damn thing stopped cutting? |
49525 | Or was n''t the pirate fleet supposed to be in on this? |
49525 | Or weeks? |
49525 | Or were they in fact working together as closely as were the two young Lensmen themselves? |
49525 | Or what?" |
49525 | Or what?" |
49525 | Or would n''t you rather have it a twosome?" |
49525 | Petrine?" |
49525 | Plural? |
49525 | Pops Kinnison? |
49525 | Quite an operation, do n''t you think?" |
49525 | Returned? |
49525 | Rigel City?" |
49525 | Rigel and Betelgeuse? |
49525 | Right now?" |
49525 | Right?" |
49525 | S.?" |
49525 | Samms?" |
49525 | Second, why did you cut down, instead of increasing as ordered, the weight of broadleaf per trip? |
49525 | See?" |
49525 | See?" |
49525 | See?" |
49525 | Shall I hail her?" |
49525 | Shall we hunt him up and eat together?" |
49525 | Shall we report now, or are n''t you ready to go to work yet?" |
49525 | Shall we stick around and see whether it comes in from Cavenda or not?" |
49525 | She got her hair and eyes from you, why not your hard- headedness, too? |
49525 | She looked to be about twenty-- except her eyes-- but she must have been a hundred, to know so much-- but what are you boys staring so about?" |
49525 | She was sure that murder was intended, but who was to be the victim? |
49525 | Should he use his headlights, or not? |
49525 | Side- arms? |
49525 | Sitting on our fat rumps and crying into our beers?" |
49525 | Small? |
49525 | So afraid that you dare not, even now, meet me mind to mind, but insist upon the use of this slow and unsatisfactory oral communication between us?" |
49525 | So how about this? |
49525 | So it''s_ your_ doing-- what in hell''s the big idea?" |
49525 | So you noticed it yourself?" |
49525 | Somebody else? |
49525 | Somebody must have learned something before anything happened; but if they did, why did n''t they do more? |
49525 | Sunberg? |
49525 | Sure you wo n''t help me clean up on those sandwiches, before they get stale?" |
49525 | Sure?" |
49525 | Take a look-- you can, ca n''t you, with your Lens?" |
49525 | Tell him to-- how many men has he got on the rotary?" |
49525 | Thanks, immensely, for allowing me to come here, Mr....?" |
49525 | That all?" |
49525 | That city is named... that is, in your English you might call it... Suntown? |
49525 | That would mean... but where?" |
49525 | That''s the point we''re diving at now... see that crater?" |
49525 | The Marine Room, you said?" |
49525 | The Patrol get them?" |
49525 | The only chance now remaining is for you to win the election, and how can you do that? |
49525 | Then Drounli arrived; arrived in the instant of his leaving The Hill-- what matters even inter- galactic distance to the speed of thought? |
49525 | Then, as soon as Stanley''s voice came on:"What I want to know is, why is this damned water- pump overloading? |
49525 | Then, when he had emerged into the now brilliantly illuminated stope,"Where are the timber- pimps?" |
49525 | There are, I assume, other surviving officers of your rank, although of lesser seniority?" |
49525 | There_ must_ have been a leak somewhere-- but where in hell could it have been?" |
49525 | They are, then, actually available upon your world, Samms of Tellus?" |
49525 | They know what is going on, then?" |
49525 | This emmfozing, then-- if I read correctly, your race has only two sexes?" |
49525 | This feels funny, does n''t it?" |
49525 | This forecast is, I trust, sufficiently detailed so that you will have no difficulty in checking its accuracy or its lack thereof?" |
49525 | This is what you wanted?" |
49525 | This it?" |
49525 | This, from_ you_?" |
49525 | Three of my boys have just hatched out something that may be worth quite a few million credits a year to us.... Me? |
49525 | Understand?" |
49525 | Upon what basis did you arrive at the figure you established?" |
49525 | Valeria?" |
49525 | Vanished? |
49525 | Vice- Admiral Corander?" |
49525 | WHO ARE YOUR BOSSES? |
49525 | Want to come along?" |
49525 | Was stolen? |
49525 | Was this lifetime of agony only one minute? |
49525 | We all know what it_ does_, but what, really,_ is_ it? |
49525 | We should run an eye over it, do n''t you think?" |
49525 | Weak? |
49525 | Well, then, Mr. Samms, who do you think it was that tried to kill you, and where do you think the Black Fleet came from?" |
49525 | Were they, in fact as in seeming, total strangers? |
49525 | What about that Lens?" |
49525 | What are all you Lensmen-- the Galactic Council and so on-- really up to? |
49525 | What are they, Jack?" |
49525 | What are they, anyway? |
49525 | What are you taking? |
49525 | What could she do? |
49525 | What did they do to you?" |
49525 | What did_ you_ see?" |
49525 | What do they say?" |
49525 | What do you expect to get out of it? |
49525 | What do you get out of it?" |
49525 | What do you know about her-- and how?" |
49525 | What do you mean? |
49525 | What do you mean?" |
49525 | What do you think you''re doing, anyway-- playing tennis or seeing how many innocent bystanders you can bring down out of control?" |
49525 | What do you think, Virge? |
49525 | What does a Chief Dexitroboper do?" |
49525 | What does that mean? |
49525 | What does the ticket cover?" |
49525 | What does time mean to any Arisian? |
49525 | What duties would be connected with this... er... position? |
49525 | What for, I wonder? |
49525 | What good was life, except to enjoy such thrills as he had just had and was about to have again? |
49525 | What happened, and where?" |
49525 | What have you got on top of the umbrella, the_ Boise_ or the_ Chicago_? |
49525 | What in hell do you think_ I''d_ be doing? |
49525 | What is all this Lens stuff really about? |
49525 | What is it?" |
49525 | What is this job you''re so sure you are going to do?" |
49525 | What is your decision?" |
49525 | What makes you think that any such are available?" |
49525 | What matter that there were not that many planets in their native space? |
49525 | What of it? |
49525 | What of it?" |
49525 | What of it?" |
49525 | What other streets could it be?" |
49525 | What say we and some of you fellows round up some girls and go have us a party?" |
49525 | What say we do it now?" |
49525 | What was at the bottom of that affair-- the Lens or the woman? |
49525 | What was death? |
49525 | What was the matter? |
49525 | What were-- really-- those Palainians? |
49525 | What would I really do?" |
49525 | What would you be doing, if you were on the other side?" |
49525 | What would you do if our situations were reversed?" |
49525 | What''s Boskone?" |
49525 | What''s the circuit?" |
49525 | What''s the story? |
49525 | What''s the technique, and how do I cover up?" |
49525 | What''s your idea on that?" |
49525 | When did you stop being a sadist?" |
49525 | Where do you want this ninety- sixty with the doctors and nurses? |
49525 | Where does_ she_ fit into this picture? |
49525 | Where is your representation upon that so- called Galactic Council? |
49525 | Where next, First Lensman?" |
49525 | Where''s Pennoyer? |
49525 | Which pressed for action and which insisted on postponement and delay? |
49525 | While we wait, shall we study the planet a little?" |
49525 | Who can tell? |
49525 | Who invented it? |
49525 | Who is to select them?" |
49525 | Who is to watch the watchmen?" |
49525 | Who knows? |
49525 | Who knows?" |
49525 | Who was_ he_, that all these boys should care so much whether he lived or died? |
49525 | Who''s the captain of your team-- you or the clothes- horse?" |
49525 | Who, in your opinion, is the real boss?" |
49525 | Who, what, and why-- and for how long-- was Gray Roger? |
49525 | Whom did you talk to, and what did he, she, or it say?" |
49525 | Why axes? |
49525 | Why could n''t he?" |
49525 | Why did n''t our Mr. Murgatroyd do something? |
49525 | Why did n''t somebody Lens her? |
49525 | Why did n''t you?" |
49525 | Why do you do it? |
49525 | Why do you suppose they offered that much, when they can get anybody killed for a hundred? |
49525 | Why lie?" |
49525 | Why not Lewistons, or rifles, or pistols? |
49525 | Why not let him keep up the counter- espionage-- do the job you were figuring on doing yourself-- and you stay here and boss it?" |
49525 | Why not thousands of cycles ago? |
49525 | Why not?" |
49525 | Why should I be different from the rest of you?" |
49525 | Why should_ you_ die? |
49525 | Why the diffidence all of a sudden, Mase? |
49525 | Why was I allowed to keep on making campaign speeches? |
49525 | Why was I not informed of the Patrol''s real power-- how could you be guilty of such stupidity? |
49525 | Why, otherwise, had not a single one of the thousands of accused even been arrested? |
49525 | Why? |
49525 | Why? |
49525 | Why? |
49525 | Why?" |
49525 | Will they hold it up deliberately or strike fast?" |
49525 | Will you please send my car up to the Wright Skyway feeder?" |
49525 | Will you tell the public, First Lensman Samms, what your guess is?" |
49525 | Will you?" |
49525 | With whom? |
49525 | Witherspoon?" |
49525 | Wonder how he''ll go about it? |
49525 | Would it by any chance happen to coincide with our Tellurian November fourteenth of this present year?" |
49525 | Would it throw you off too much to go inert and match intrinsics, so that I can join you?" |
49525 | Would such a race of beings have need of such things as cities? |
49525 | Would there, or would there not, be cities? |
49525 | Would you like to come along?" |
49525 | Would you like to observe the proceedings?" |
49525 | Would you like to see them?" |
49525 | Would you part with her-- for, say, ten credits?" |
49525 | Wright, what would you say is the biggest sag we can cut in this kind of rock at two and a quarter feet a minute?" |
49525 | Wright, you''re all in one piece, are n''t you?" |
49525 | Y''don''t s''pose he''s going to take the Old Man away from us already, do you?" |
49525 | You also will realize that I must have become cognizant of my own peculiarities long before anyone else did or could?" |
49525 | You are an expert at that, I believe?" |
49525 | You are of course familiar in a general way with our operation at Northport?" |
49525 | You are of course observing all specified precautions as to key personnel?" |
49525 | You are, Spud?" |
49525 | You call it mewing and purring, I believe?" |
49525 | You can guess?" |
49525 | You do not perceive yours, either, as you drive?" |
49525 | You have given me a Lens for Roderick Kinnison; how about the others? |
49525 | You have? |
49525 | You know how sarcastic and superior he is, even when he''s wrong?" |
49525 | You know the edge of the galaxy closest to Tellus, where that big rift cuts in?" |
49525 | You swear it?" |
49525 | You think, then, that it might not be good technique to take the time to go back to the spaceport?" |
49525 | You two must have had a common ancestor-- or several-- not too far back, did n''t you?" |
49525 | You yourself expect an attack, do you not?" |
49525 | You''re a Procian, are n''t you?" |
49525 | You''ve been working on him right along, though, have n''t you?" |
49525 | You''ve given up, then, on the idea that Arisia is the pirates''GHQ?" |
49525 | You''ve got things in shape, have n''t you, so that you can take the week- end off?" |
49525 | You''ve seen systems like this before?" |
49525 | Zwilnik?" |
49525 | _ Atmospheric_ vibrations? |
49525 | _ How?_ Mind- reading?" |
49525 | _ How?_ Mind- reading?" |
49525 | _ How_ would California go? |
49525 | _ Lovers!_ Me and that red- headed stinker-- that jelly- brained sapadilly? |
49525 | _ Where_ did you get it?" |
49525 | _ You_ passed it, did n''t you?" |
49525 | er...?" |
13738 | A lantern? |
13738 | A spy on what-- on my mother, on Minna, on me, on the flowers, as a part of this monstrous game of trickery and lies that you are playing? |
13738 | An open mind that let you have your way in equipping more dirigibles and planes than Westerling guesses we have, eh? 13738 And I can be of most help when the attack on the main defence is begun?" |
13738 | And Minna and little Clarissa Eileen? |
13738 | And about the declaration of war? 13738 And cost them many?" |
13738 | And defeat means-- what does defeat mean? |
13738 | And did you hold your session? |
13738 | And how did you sleep? |
13738 | And how long do you think the war would last? 13738 And if I can not? |
13738 | And if I get another hole in me you''ll patch me up again? |
13738 | And if you caught a regiment in close formation with a shower of bombs, that would be positively heavenly, would n''t it? |
13738 | And perhaps a sweetheart? |
13738 | And the 132d-- no order about that, sir? |
13738 | And the cost in lives? |
13738 | And the little crawlers-- did they bother you much, the little crawlers? |
13738 | And the news-- what is the news? |
13738 | And the only real end that means real peace is to prove that the weak can hold back the strong from their threshold? |
13738 | And the press-- the mischievous, greedy, but very useful press? |
13738 | And the supremely ridiculous thing? |
13738 | And then? |
13738 | And this is only the beginning, is n''t it? |
13738 | And this will be the most terrible attack of all? |
13738 | And what are we doing? 13738 And when they took off their hats, what then?" |
13738 | And you are ready to be shot for that principle? |
13738 | And you are sure-- sure we can win? |
13738 | And you found out that I was not deaf when you had that fall on the terrace? |
13738 | And you have nothing to say? |
13738 | And you have yet another paper there? |
13738 | And you say that Westerling, who commands the killing on his side, will be in no danger? |
13738 | And you think that you will win? |
13738 | And you will keep watch that Mrs. Galland and Marta are in no danger? |
13738 | And you would want the information about the first line to- night if-- if it is to be of service? |
13738 | And you''re acting chief of staff, Lanny? 13738 And you-- what have you been doing all these years?" |
13738 | And your victory will mean a new frontier, a new order of international relations and a long peace, you think? 13738 Are n''t we refusing to leave the nation''s house because a burglar is trying to enter?" |
13738 | Are they coming yet? |
13738 | Are we of the septicized- serum age equal to it? |
13738 | Are you afraid? 13738 Are you sure it''s going to be war?" |
13738 | Are you, too, afraid? |
13738 | Beats spraying rose- bushes for bugs, eh, old man? |
13738 | But Goerwitz-- what will he say? |
13738 | But I did it well, did n''t I? |
13738 | But are n''t you afraid to be left alone in the dark? 13738 But how-- where?" |
13738 | But if the Browns did know where you were going to attack? |
13738 | But it will help? 13738 But still you stake your life? |
13738 | But that will be the object and the effect-- wholesale slaughter? |
13738 | But the law of the Grays is that homes should be left undisturbed, is n''t it? 13738 But we would n''t want them to put up their flag on our territory, would we?" |
13738 | But what about the aeroplanes? |
13738 | But what about the indemnity? |
13738 | But what about the remainder of the force that made the charge? 13738 But why not?" |
13738 | By wireless? |
13738 | Ca n''t we get enough fighting from the Browns without fighting each other? |
13738 | Ca n''t you run any faster than that, captain? 13738 Can we do it alone? |
13738 | Can you see them from up here? |
13738 | Can you see''em? |
13738 | Children, why will you waste your country''s ammunition? |
13738 | Conditions the same as before? |
13738 | Conqueror? 13738 Could little White Liver sleep away from home and mamma? |
13738 | Coward? 13738 Did I help any?" |
13738 | Did I? 13738 Did anyone else suspect?" |
13738 | Did n''t I say to trust it to me, Lanny? |
13738 | Did we accomplish anything? |
13738 | Did you get the custards? |
13738 | Did you see anything? 13738 Did you see many dead and wounded?" |
13738 | Did you see many dead and wounded? |
13738 | Disobeyed orders? 13738 Do I get an iron cross?" |
13738 | Do I? 13738 Do n''t I look it-- hysterical?" |
13738 | Do n''t you see he''s getting you, Gene? |
13738 | Do n''t you think that the blow on his head and the fever afterward has something to do with it? |
13738 | Do you find it fattening? |
13738 | Do you know whose property this is? |
13738 | Do you like best to keep it all to yourself, Marta? |
13738 | Do you recall what I said in the reception- room at the hotel? |
13738 | Do you think it is right to tell? |
13738 | Do you think it''s fake? |
13738 | Do you think so? 13738 Do you think that I fainted purposely? |
13738 | Do you think that the fellows on the other side of the frontier want to be killed? |
13738 | Do you think they will come? |
13738 | Do you want me to do that, sir? |
13738 | Do you want to be killed? |
13738 | Does he need to? 13738 Does she go into the tunnel?" |
13738 | Does she think those hawk eyes will miss that little button of the panel door? |
13738 | Eh, what? 13738 Eh? |
13738 | Eh? 13738 Eh? |
13738 | Eh? 13738 Eh? |
13738 | Eh? |
13738 | Fear? |
13738 | Fear? |
13738 | Finding enough work to do? |
13738 | First, you dropped your rifle? |
13738 | For experience does make a great difference, does n''t it? |
13738 | Fright? 13738 General Westerling''s headquarters?" |
13738 | Go? |
13738 | Good- by, Lanny? 13738 Has it got on your nerves, too?" |
13738 | Have n''t we got something that we could n''t get otherwise? 13738 Have you a lantern?" |
13738 | Have you connected the wire to the telephone yet? |
13738 | Have you gone insane? 13738 Have you gone out of your head?" |
13738 | Have you lost your patriotism? |
13738 | He is a spy? |
13738 | Honest? |
13738 | How can I tell you what I saw? 13738 How can the men have spirit when you feel that way?" |
13738 | How can they be in my thoughts or yours? |
13738 | How did it happen? |
13738 | How do all your notions get into your head, Hugo? |
13738 | How do they get through the line? |
13738 | How do they know? |
13738 | How do you do, flying soldier man? |
13738 | How do you like that? 13738 How have I ever been able to go as far as I have? |
13738 | How long will it take to mobilize? |
13738 | How? |
13738 | How? |
13738 | I do n''t want to be killed, and why should I want to kill strangers on the other side of the frontier? |
13738 | I have made my sacrifice to some purpose? 13738 I may come in?" |
13738 | I s''pose there will be; but if you get that in your mind how can you fight? |
13738 | I should not be fair if I did not, should I? |
13738 | I suppose you have spies under his very nose-- in his very staff offices? |
13738 | I was very strenuous riding my hobby against yours, was n''t I? |
13738 | I wonder if it is really worth while to put him under arrest? |
13738 | I wonder, now, I wonder if they can run any faster than I can? |
13738 | I''m not dreaming? |
13738 | I''m tired, just tired to death, are n''t you? |
13738 | I-- you mean I was too detached? 13738 If there is war, the moment that Feller''s ruse is discovered he will be shot as a spy?" |
13738 | If we get that we have the most vital position, have n''t we? |
13738 | If you did not expect it, why did you enter the army? |
13738 | If you win, then we shall be under your flag and pay taxes to you? |
13738 | Into the very holy of holies of the great war machine, is n''t it? |
13738 | Is Tom-- Tom Fragini here? |
13738 | Is it a fact, Tom, or was you just joking when you wrote home that the soldiers took so many baths? |
13738 | Is it much of a job, do you think? |
13738 | Is n''t it damp and deathlike? 13738 Is n''t it wonderful? |
13738 | Is n''t that coming around to my view, Marta? |
13738 | Is n''t that my affair? |
13738 | Is n''t that the finest law of all? 13738 Is n''t the position, which means the pass and the range, worth it?" |
13738 | Is n''t there something else I can do to help with the wounded? |
13738 | Is that so? 13738 Is that too strong?" |
13738 | Is this the 53d? |
13738 | It is a big thing, is n''t it? |
13738 | It is her suggestion, not yours? 13738 It was n''t so very hard to say, was it?" |
13738 | It was the Browns who cut the lindens? |
13738 | It was the strain of war, was n''t it? |
13738 | It will the sooner end fighting, wo n''t it, Lanny? |
13738 | It''s all done to beat the Grays, is n''t it, Miss Galland? 13738 Just how long, at the present rate, will it take them to get the whole range? |
13738 | Just like the old days, is n''t it? |
13738 | Let me see, do I dine at the Countess Zalinski''s to- night? |
13738 | Let them up the Bordir road and on to redoubts 36 and 37, you mean? |
13738 | Major? |
13738 | Marta, did any of the children come? |
13738 | Marta, do n''t you hear me? 13738 Marta, if there were to be war very soon-- within a week or two weeks-- what would be your attitude about Feller''s remaining?" |
13738 | Marta, please may n''t I come in? |
13738 | Marta, you will promise not to remain at the house? |
13738 | May we? |
13738 | Mine against yours? |
13738 | Miss Galland, is n''t it? |
13738 | Miss Galland, you-- you were n''t there during the fighting? |
13738 | My guns were firing at you? 13738 No more wool- gathering, eh?" |
13738 | No nerves, did you say? 13738 No?" |
13738 | Nothing at all in your own behalf? |
13738 | Nothing? |
13738 | Oh, what, please? |
13738 | Oh-- oh-- can''t you go easier? 13738 One lump or two in your coffee, sir? |
13738 | Partow gave you the positions? |
13738 | Partow might have this dream before he won, but would he now? |
13738 | Peterkin? |
13738 | Right? 13738 Said our flag was no better''n any other flag, did he?" |
13738 | Say, did you notice Dellarme''s smile? 13738 Say, you ai n''t been falling in love?" |
13738 | She does? 13738 She knows who I am?" |
13738 | Should I be enthusiastic? 13738 Since you''ve become such a great man?" |
13738 | So that you can mow them down? |
13738 | Something about an attack to- night? |
13738 | Sportsmanlike? 13738 Still there, eh? |
13738 | Still you would like to kill five to one, even ten to one, would n''t you? |
13738 | Sue for peace because women go hysterical? 13738 Tea was from four to five, do you remember? |
13738 | Ten years, is n''t it? |
13738 | That is all? |
13738 | That is how you happened to get the whole story? 13738 That''s in the line of duty for you and me, is n''t it?" |
13738 | The Gray wounded? |
13738 | The field- marshal was Partow, their chief of staff? |
13738 | The gift? 13738 The little crawlers?" |
13738 | The news? 13738 The sacrifice of lives then would be all the greater?" |
13738 | The symbol of the conqueror, is n''t it? |
13738 | Then I helped? 13738 Then Partow will not be in any danger?" |
13738 | Then my shame-- my sending men to slaughter-- my sacrifice was not in vain? |
13738 | Then the end-- then peace is so much the nearer? |
13738 | Then water? |
13738 | Then your losses were not heavy? |
13738 | Then, why stay, Gustave? 13738 There are times when you must be firm with a woman, are n''t there? |
13738 | They look well, do n''t you think? |
13738 | This-- this is morning, is n''t it? |
13738 | Though I fancy it is the other chief of staff who will have the work to do this evening, eh? |
13738 | To carry out his plan, you mean? |
13738 | Truly? |
13738 | Veterans, you say, and seasoned? 13738 Walk? |
13738 | Was it your guns that fired into the mêlée there by the gate? |
13738 | Was that blow for him at the same time as for me? |
13738 | Was the attack general all along the front? |
13738 | We can win, then? 13738 We do forget it at tea, do n''t we?" |
13738 | We have had a terrific argument, Lanny, have n''t we? 13738 We shall, eh?" |
13738 | Well, Gustave, old boy, it ca n''t be that you are in touch with Westerling yet? |
13738 | Well, Tom, how much longer you got to serve? |
13738 | Well, did n''t you find what I said was true about the lowlanders? |
13738 | Well, have you any other little tricks to show me? 13738 Well, if you do n''t want to fight, what are you in the army for? |
13738 | Well, my boy, why are you hesitating? |
13738 | Well, was Lanstron right? |
13738 | Well, what, man, what? |
13738 | Well? |
13738 | Well? |
13738 | Were there any reserves coming our way? |
13738 | What are you doing here? |
13738 | What are you waiting for? |
13738 | What did you come into the army for, then? |
13738 | What did you say in those letters? |
13738 | What do lives mean? |
13738 | What do you need? 13738 What do you think led to his departure?" |
13738 | What do you think of this? |
13738 | What for? |
13738 | What happened to-- to that man who was pleading for death? 13738 What happened?" |
13738 | What if every man held your views? 13738 What information have we about Engadir?" |
13738 | What interested you most? 13738 What interests you so much down there?" |
13738 | What is that? |
13738 | What is that? |
13738 | What is that? |
13738 | What is the punishment? |
13738 | What kind of spirit is there in doing the work of navvies? 13738 What next, Hugo?" |
13738 | What staff- officer? 13738 What was the sublime thing?" |
13738 | What you mean is that you will kill as many as possible of the Grays, is n''t it? 13738 What? |
13738 | What? |
13738 | When do we start? 13738 When not even a soldier in uniform is allowed to move away from his command without a pass?" |
13738 | Where''s Stransky? |
13738 | Where''s her father? 13738 Who do you think he accused? |
13738 | Who if not you is entitled to the privilege of the staff council? |
13738 | Who is in command? |
13738 | Who put this on you? |
13738 | Who was Dellarme? |
13738 | Who would n''t sneak? |
13738 | Whom have we lost? |
13738 | Why are n''t you at a hospital? |
13738 | Why did n''t I agree to her plan? 13738 Why have you gone on with the slaughter? |
13738 | Why not give the public something else to think about? |
13738 | Why not include Clarissa Eileen? |
13738 | Why not tear out the telephone-- why not? |
13738 | Why not? 13738 Why particularly care for one life when you deal in lives by the wholesale?" |
13738 | Why should n''t I stay here? 13738 Why should n''t we think of the sky as heaven, as Nirvana? |
13738 | Why should the chief of staff risk his life in this fashion? |
13738 | Why think of my life when you are taking other lives every minute? |
13738 | Why you and I? |
13738 | Why? |
13738 | Why? |
13738 | Why? |
13738 | Why? |
13738 | Why? |
13738 | Will it be ten years before we meet again? |
13738 | Will they shell the town? |
13738 | Will they? 13738 Will you get down? |
13738 | Will you never stop your joking, you, Hugo Mallin? |
13738 | Will you wait on the veranda? |
13738 | With no result? |
13738 | With the honors of war and officers permitted to retain their side- arms? |
13738 | With what, now? 13738 Wo n''t you be seated, sir?" |
13738 | Would that do you any good? |
13738 | Would that stop the retreat of the army? 13738 Would you mind holding out your hand?" |
13738 | Yes"Had you suspected me before that? |
13738 | Yes, do n''t you? |
13738 | Yes, my boy; and then? |
13738 | Yes, past a wall of bayonets? |
13738 | Yes, why should n''t I? |
13738 | Yes, why? |
13738 | Yes; do n''t these little bullets make neat little holes? |
13738 | Yes? 13738 Yes? |
13738 | Yes? |
13738 | Yes? |
13738 | Yes? |
13738 | Yes? |
13738 | Yet, what evidence have we that Partow or Lanstron has done more than to make a fortunate guess or show military insight? |
13738 | You apparently know where your profession ought to feel perfectly at home-- but what is the use? 13738 You are sure that he has one?" |
13738 | You are thirsty? |
13738 | You did n''t know Ed Schmidt got it? 13738 You do think of that-- the lives?" |
13738 | You have a home, a father, and a mother? |
13738 | You have found that out, Marta? |
13738 | You have information, then, information that I have not? |
13738 | You heard about it? |
13738 | You heard what he said, sir? |
13738 | You kept on fighting to- day, but you wo n''t to- morrow, will you? 13738 You know the penalty for this?" |
13738 | You know what that means-- the charges sustained? |
13738 | You mean my story, too? |
13738 | You mean that he knew how we should mow them down? |
13738 | You refused to fight? |
13738 | You saw our_ communiqué_ to- night that went with the publication of the Browns''despatch? |
13738 | You saw something of the defence? |
13738 | You sent for me? |
13738 | You take all responsibility? |
13738 | You think I am joking? |
13738 | You think our staff led you wisely? |
13738 | You think that you will win? |
13738 | You think that-- you-- all of you? |
13738 | You think we can continue to do so? 13738 You were in the big attack night before last?" |
13738 | You will follow the staff? |
13738 | You will let us do something for them? |
13738 | You would not like to see thousands, hundreds of thousands, of men killed and maimed, would you? |
13738 | You would want me to love you, would n''t you? |
13738 | You''re not coming with us? |
13738 | You''re real, are n''t you? |
13738 | You-- you ai n''t going to bring one of them southern girls home? |
13738 | You-- you were down by the road? |
13738 | Your Excellency, may we send back for you, sir? |
13738 | Your child? |
13738 | Your name and regiment? |
13738 | Your reasons? 13738 Your tendon of Achilles? |
13738 | A coward-- do you hear?" |
13738 | A few are up-- why do n''t they close in? |
13738 | A lieutenant of a detachment of engineers coming at the double from a cross street stopped to inquire:"This way to the knitting mills?" |
13738 | A racking sob, now, and silence; then, in the sudden effort of one who must change the subject to hold his sanity, she asked:"How is Feller? |
13738 | Afraid in your youth of the burden that I bear in age?" |
13738 | Afraid of duty? |
13738 | Afraid to tell me the truth? |
13738 | After they have taken the first line of defence-- and they will get it, wo n''t they?" |
13738 | All my sacrifice is n''t for nothing?" |
13738 | Am I not right? |
13738 | An outburst of patriotism, concentrating every thought of the nation on war!--is that the way out?" |
13738 | And after you have made them pay five to one or ten to one in human lives for the tangent, what then? |
13738 | And had n''t the old premier, her grandfather, said:"You can afford to be fussed about little things but never about big things"? |
13738 | And he was intelligence officer, was n''t he?" |
13738 | And if you could kill five for every man you lost, that would be splendid, would n''t it?" |
13738 | And our guns-- why do n''t they fire at a target before their eyes as big as a house? |
13738 | And she sends her regards to her old gardener? |
13738 | And sleep? |
13738 | And the war goes well for you, does n''t it?" |
13738 | And then the voice of Feller alone, insinuating, with a sinister mischievousness:"What more could you ask? |
13738 | And what of those of Fracasse''s men who had not run but had dropped in their tracks when the charge halted? |
13738 | And what right had he to think of marriage? |
13738 | And what the devil was she going to do, anyway? |
13738 | And when the war is over, may I come to call?" |
13738 | And why not? |
13738 | And why should n''t women engage in it? |
13738 | And why? |
13738 | And you have been all the time at La Tir, truly?" |
13738 | And you will tell us when to go into the house?" |
13738 | And your mother?" |
13738 | And, Lanny, are you a person of such distinction in the business of killing that you also will be out of danger?" |
13738 | And, Lanny, if I ring the bell you''ll answer, wo n''t you?" |
13738 | And, let me see, you took two lumps, if I remember?" |
13738 | Any other pessimists or anarchists want to be heard?" |
13738 | Are n''t we all Browns, orderly and captain, boyish lieutenant and gray- haired general? |
13738 | Are n''t you men?" |
13738 | Are you a sleight- of- hand artist, too, Lanny? |
13738 | Are you going to give me the information?" |
13738 | Are you going to take a machine gun out of your hat?" |
13738 | Ask-- ask what is the spirit of the staff, of the soldiers who have fought? |
13738 | At the same point?" |
13738 | Away fighting?" |
13738 | Because God was still with the heaviest battalions? |
13738 | Because Westerling had been too strong, too clever, for old Partow? |
13738 | But I am bound to ask what orders?" |
13738 | But if I had, could there be a better time?" |
13738 | But little Peterkin, the question in his mind breaking free of his lips, unwittingly asked:"Shall-- shall we fight in the morning?" |
13738 | But the part that Marta plays? |
13738 | But we could n''t let Feller go, could we? |
13738 | But what are soldiers against ghosts? |
13738 | But what if he were to go on descending for hours; yes, for days? |
13738 | But what if there were no police? |
13738 | But what kind of love? |
13738 | But where are_ our_ dirigibles? |
13738 | But where is Gustave?" |
13738 | But where is Major Dellarme?" |
13738 | But where was the romance of the last war forty years ago? |
13738 | But who could know better the craft of courtship than one of Westerling''s experience? |
13738 | But wo n''t you ask Partow to do one thing, if he still insists that he is for peace? |
13738 | But would one? |
13738 | But, are you going to do your part? |
13738 | Ca n''t you hear them? |
13738 | Ca n''t you see them?" |
13738 | Come, why not?" |
13738 | Commanders had been told to hold, but how and where to hold? |
13738 | Could anything be better than to have Westerling present if suspicions proved correct? |
13738 | Could he accomplish it? |
13738 | Could it be from the Browns celebrating a repulse? |
13738 | Could it be true that she had betrayed every decent attribute of a woman in vain? |
13738 | Could n''t I help you with the appeal? |
13738 | Could she only look on in a fever of restlessness while action roared around her? |
13738 | Could this be that terrible Partow, a stroke of whose pencil had made the Galland house an inferno? |
13738 | Did I?" |
13738 | Did any one who had been engaged in killing men who wanted to live kill the one who wanted to die?" |
13738 | Did he get his guns?" |
13738 | Did he long for mamma to tuck him among the goose feathers, with a sweet biscuit in his paddy?" |
13738 | Did he or any other conqueror ever acknowledge a success due to the despised outcasts who brought him information? |
13738 | Did n''t Mrs. Galland believe that blood would tell? |
13738 | Did n''t we go to school together? |
13738 | Did n''t you say they shrieked as well as groaned and moaned once about 3 A.M.?" |
13738 | Did she expect him? |
13738 | Did she know what she was saying? |
13738 | Did the Grays, then, really owe two of their fairest provinces to the lady who had jilted him? |
13738 | Did they follow? |
13738 | Did they guard the treasures of their libraries and galleries? |
13738 | Did you go into all the dungeons?" |
13738 | Did you really find it so bad for discipline in your own case?" |
13738 | Did you see that hand twitching in his pocket? |
13738 | Did you wave your acknowledgments to Lanny,''?" |
13738 | Do I?" |
13738 | Do n''t we know that Napoleon had moments of privacy when he whined and threatened suicide? |
13738 | Do n''t you believe there are?" |
13738 | Do n''t you like flowers? |
13738 | Do n''t you want to see?" |
13738 | Do they still have that toast, Colonel?" |
13738 | Do you realize what that means-- the honor and the power that will be ours? |
13738 | Do you really think they will?" |
13738 | Do you suppose that the Browns will listen now when they think they have the advantage? |
13738 | Do you think I''m afraid? |
13738 | Do you think if it were given to the world that the Grays would still come on? |
13738 | Do you want the distinction of being a traitor-- one lone traitor in your loyal province?" |
13738 | Does n''t my children''s oath say:''I''ll not let a burglar drive me out of my house''?" |
13738 | Eh? |
13738 | Eh? |
13738 | Eh? |
13738 | Entering the cut, he was halted by the challenging cry of"Who goes there?" |
13738 | Feller?" |
13738 | First, you, Armand; do you?" |
13738 | For what am I? |
13738 | From the upper terrace came a great voice, like that of the guns, from a human throat:"Why did n''t we level those terraces? |
13738 | General Westerling, have you ever been under fire?" |
13738 | Had any one of these four heroes of the Grays in their heavy gilt frames divined what kind of a to- morrow his day was preparing? |
13738 | Had ever any martyr shown a finer spirit dying for any cause? |
13738 | Had he stopped with the repulse of the enemy? |
13738 | Had he, the chief of staff, been beguiled into making a woman his confidant in military secrets? |
13738 | Had it been right to intrust such responsibility to one man of Partow''s age and right to transfer that responsibility to himself in an emergency? |
13738 | Had n''t Westerling answered all doubts with the aphorism,"It is a mistake for a soldier to think too much"? |
13738 | Had n''t he as much right as anybody to use the public highway? |
13738 | Had n''t the telegraphers, those silent men who were the tongue of the army, received the good news and passed it on? |
13738 | Had she been guilty of giving him hope? |
13738 | Had she depths that he had not fathomed? |
13738 | Had she sent_ him_ to death? |
13738 | Had that chance shell turned the scales? |
13738 | Had the Browns really tried for peace? |
13738 | Had the connection been broken? |
13738 | Had they an inheritance of great ages of art, literature, music, and philosophy? |
13738 | Had they reasoning minds? |
13738 | Had they the religion of Christ? |
13738 | Had they, in the spirit of her oath, appealed to justice and reason? |
13738 | Have n''t the Browns held their line with inferior numbers? |
13738 | Have n''t you any forked tails, either? |
13738 | He was going mad, you mean?" |
13738 | Help about what?" |
13738 | Him a baby? |
13738 | His visits to Marta were his holidays? |
13738 | Home? |
13738 | How could I?" |
13738 | How could a woman ever have learned two such vital secrets? |
13738 | How could any one ever go to school with me and not be a great man? |
13738 | How could he expect her to interest herself exclusively in him as one human being when all human beings interested her so profoundly? |
13738 | How could it happen that two such critical points as Bordir and Engadir should go undefended? |
13738 | How could she ever begin anew? |
13738 | How could they falter directed by a woman unmindful of occasional shells and bullet whistles? |
13738 | How did I get through this last scene? |
13738 | How did she get her knowledge? |
13738 | How did you find out? |
13738 | How did you guess we were here?" |
13738 | How does he feel now?" |
13738 | How does he get the information to the enemy? |
13738 | How is he? |
13738 | How long could his company endure this? |
13738 | How long the strain on our finances, the suspense to the markets?" |
13738 | How much can a soldier carry and how best carry it easily? |
13738 | How would you feel if a neighbor entered your house and made it his own? |
13738 | How would your father and mother feel?" |
13738 | How''s your rheumatism?" |
13738 | How, sir?" |
13738 | How?" |
13738 | How?" |
13738 | I am helping, Lanny? |
13738 | I am sure I can get something worth while with you to direct me; do n''t you think so, Lanny?" |
13738 | I asked Lanny to tell you; did he?" |
13738 | I believe you profess, too, to protect property, do you not?" |
13738 | I could n''t stomach it, could you? |
13738 | I hoped--"Was he testing her? |
13738 | I really helped?" |
13738 | I was not human?" |
13738 | I wonder if he will chuckle or laugh at my suggestion, or will he grin or roar? |
13738 | I''ve had wine enough; but would you cut me another slice of bread?" |
13738 | If Feller''s plan succeeds it means that you will know where the Grays are going to attack?" |
13738 | If Hugo Mallin had been called a coward, what of himself? |
13738 | If a biscuit shot out from the pocket of a corpse, would n''t the living hand grab for it in brute greediness? |
13738 | If trouble never comes singly, why should n''t joys come in a pour? |
13738 | In the tone of the question,"You''ve been hurt?" |
13738 | Is everything to be destroyed-- everything to satisfy the appetite of savagery?" |
13738 | Is he doing well?" |
13738 | Is his race becoming decadent? |
13738 | Is it because you are ashamed of your profession? |
13738 | Is it extravaganza? |
13738 | Is n''t it like some good story?" |
13738 | Is n''t it true? |
13738 | Is n''t it, Marta?" |
13738 | Is n''t it?" |
13738 | Is n''t that patriotism?" |
13738 | Is n''t that what we have all been thinking and desiring? |
13738 | Is n''t this the fellow that Lanstron got off?" |
13738 | Is that it?" |
13738 | Is that it?" |
13738 | Is that so?" |
13738 | Is that the word, Jake?" |
13738 | It does not pain you?" |
13738 | It is not bad? |
13738 | It was her voice, come out of the distance, that asked, without any inflection except that of tense curiosity:"May we see the letter?" |
13738 | It was pretty fun, was n''t it?" |
13738 | It will be of vital service?" |
13738 | It''s all of two years since we met at Miss Galland''s, is n''t it?" |
13738 | It''s only a quarter of an hour now, is n''t it?" |
13738 | It''s peace, peace-- isn''t it to be peace?" |
13738 | Just what had he told her? |
13738 | Keep what?" |
13738 | Lanstron always asked himself this in a crisis: What would Partow say? |
13738 | Marta, will you never be serious?" |
13738 | Me-- afraid?" |
13738 | No bones, no skulls-- not even any anklets fastened by chains to the clammy, wet stones?" |
13738 | Not as gay as in your day, that''s sure, when you were in the Hussars, eh?" |
13738 | Of course, you''ve heard about the hand? |
13738 | On the point of arguing, he caught a mischievous, delightful"Is n''t that so?" |
13738 | On what meat had our Cæsar fed that he had grown so great? |
13738 | Or are they curled up nicely inside your trousers''legs?''" |
13738 | Or fall into each other''s arms and sob? |
13738 | Or from the Grays after taking the position? |
13738 | Or would the very first bullet go through his head? |
13738 | Or, as he puts it, are the younger generation without sand in their craws? |
13738 | Or, did you see one and not dare to go on? |
13738 | Ought I to tell you?" |
13738 | Our own original trunk- tunnel private line? |
13738 | Patriotism? |
13738 | Say, shall we give them a few?" |
13738 | Shall I get them on the telephone?" |
13738 | Shall we charge them now we''ve got the support of the guns?" |
13738 | Shall we fight?" |
13738 | She offers herself? |
13738 | She wants no persuasion?" |
13738 | Should I view the prospect with an old- fashioned Hussar''s hurrah?" |
13738 | Should he let her make the sacrifice of everything that he held to be sacred to a woman''s delicacy? |
13738 | Should he not return to the telephone and tell her that he would not permit her to play such a part? |
13738 | Show that it is all a woman''s hysteria-- for we are all hysterical, are n''t we? |
13738 | Snug behind sand- bags you will tear the flesh of our comrades to pieces, will you? |
13738 | So this is your tendon of Achilles, eh?'' |
13738 | Talk about your old- fashioned, take- snuff- my- card- sir courage, pray- and- swear courage-- what about this? |
13738 | Tell me"--his whisper was quivering with eagerness--"shall we fight? |
13738 | Terrific, do you say? |
13738 | That is what you live and plan for, is n''t it?" |
13738 | That was what we were told to do, was n''t it, sir?" |
13738 | That''s a fair question, is n''t it?" |
13738 | That''s a woman''s privilege; one men grant, is n''t it?" |
13738 | That-- that will help, wo n''t it?" |
13738 | The game of solitaire? |
13738 | The general''s staff watching the course of the action by the billows of black smoke? |
13738 | The glitter of buttons and the pomp of showy uniforms? |
13738 | The information is worth something to you?" |
13738 | The longer the war lasts the greater will be the loss of life and the misery?" |
13738 | The staff exchanged glances of amazement, and Turcas, his dry voice crackling like parchment, exclaimed:"Attack again? |
13738 | The telephone still continues to work? |
13738 | The world at large, after rubbing its forehead and readjusting its eye- glasses and clearing its throat, exclaimed:"Why not? |
13738 | The wounded like flowers, do n''t they? |
13738 | Then I thought, can I be worthy of this-- of what you have done for me, giving me back my own world, your world? |
13738 | Then he asked the stereotyped question:"What have you to say to them?" |
13738 | Then he opened his lips and whispered to the doctor:"How is it?" |
13738 | There we come to the kernel in the nut, eh?" |
13738 | VIII THANKS TO A BUMBLEBEE"Has he changed much?" |
13738 | War, do you hear that, you plebeian trousers of the deaf gardener? |
13738 | Was Feller still happy in playing a stream of lead from the automatic? |
13738 | Was Feller''s the sentiment of the army? |
13738 | Was Lanny one of those black specks that peppered the slope? |
13738 | Was he playing a part of his own to make certain that she was not playing one? |
13738 | Was he still smiling? |
13738 | Was he? |
13738 | Was he? |
13738 | Was her charm a charm with a purpose? |
13738 | Was it conceivable that the change was not due to a personal feeling for him? |
13738 | Was it not natural that a woman with more than her share of intellectual perception should be on the right side? |
13738 | Was it possible that the Whole idea of the teachers of peace was an invention to make conversation at his expense? |
13738 | Was it this that gave to war its halo-- this offering of the most valuable thing man possesses to sudden destruction that made war heroic? |
13738 | Was n''t he a free man? |
13738 | Was n''t he a woman- hater?" |
13738 | Was n''t he called to the colors at the outbreak of the war?" |
13738 | Was n''t he in the reserves if he were a Brown? |
13738 | Was n''t it part of my plan-- my dream-- that plan I gave you to read in the vaults, to strike if a chance, this very chance, were to come? |
13738 | Was n''t that what you wanted me to do, sir?" |
13738 | Was n''t the nation growing stale from the long peace? |
13738 | Was n''t war the real cure for the general unrest? |
13738 | Was she expected to make a choice? |
13738 | Was she posing at that instant for his benefit? |
13738 | Was she teasing him? |
13738 | Was the revelation the more vivid because it had not once occurred to her since the war began? |
13738 | Was the second charge of the Grays, which must have come to close quarters when the guns went silent, going to succeed? |
13738 | Was there any hope of saving it? |
13738 | Was there ever a call for more army- corps or guns that was not made in the name of peace? |
13738 | Was there ever a soldier who did not fight for peace? |
13738 | Was there ever such a woman?" |
13738 | Was there something in her that had led him on, a shame that came natural to her since she had let Westerling proceed with his love? |
13738 | Was there something more than"newspaper talk"in this latest diplomatic crisis between the Grays and the Browns? |
13738 | We ca n''t wait, can we?" |
13738 | We can give that to her later over the telephone, ca n''t we, eh?" |
13738 | We have kept peace with force between these two brave, high- spirited peoples; why not have the peace of wisdom? |
13738 | We have the power, why not use it? |
13738 | We learned that principle at school, did n''t we?" |
13738 | We will do nothing to arouse the war passion?''" |
13738 | Well--"he was looking straight into Lanstron''s eyes,"well, I think we know the point where we could draw them in on the main line, eh?" |
13738 | Were n''t they both made of flesh and bone and blood and nerves? |
13738 | Were the Browns not to stop at the frontier? |
13738 | Were they grown men? |
13738 | Were they of the great races that had given the world steam- power, electric power, anæsthesia, and antiseptics? |
13738 | Were they to change their song to,"Now we have ours we shall take some of theirs"? |
13738 | Were they to scream? |
13738 | What about Grandfather Fragini, who would fight on principle whenever a Gray was in sight? |
13738 | What about all our guns concentrated in front of Engadir?" |
13738 | What am I about to do? |
13738 | What answer had he to this? |
13738 | What are high- angle guns for, anyway, with such targets naked over our lines? |
13738 | What are we waiting for?" |
13738 | What are you waiting for, Corporal Fragini?" |
13738 | What better immortality than to be absorbed into that?" |
13738 | What can I do?" |
13738 | What could ever erase hers? |
13738 | What could he say in face of a hostility so resolute and armed with the conviction of its logic? |
13738 | What did it matter? |
13738 | What did the thousandth chance matter? |
13738 | What did this mean? |
13738 | What difference is there between you? |
13738 | What do you mean?" |
13738 | What do you think of the crisis, eh, Hugo? |
13738 | What form the new symbols? |
13738 | What have I done? |
13738 | What hope have you for your ruse, then?" |
13738 | What if all the power she had shown in her appeal for peace could be made to serve another ambition? |
13738 | What if they had to return to Africa without firing a shot? |
13738 | What is Westerling teaching the Grays?" |
13738 | What is a million out of the billions on the face of the earth? |
13738 | What is it?" |
13738 | What is one woman compared to such a purpose? |
13738 | What is the news?" |
13738 | What is the truth about their losses? |
13738 | What is theirs? |
13738 | What mattered policies of statesmen and generals, propagandas and tactics, to them? |
13738 | What new resources of confusion had ten years and a tour around the world developed in her? |
13738 | What next? |
13738 | What now, Marta?" |
13738 | What of the stupid of the company, who would never learn even the manual of arms correctly, as the drill- sergeant often said? |
13738 | What purpose is there in the rebellion of a grain of sand on the seashore, in the insubordination of one of five million soldiers? |
13738 | What purpose of the war game does he serve in our garden?" |
13738 | What right had she, who had played such a horrible part, to think of self? |
13738 | What shoes are the most serviceable for marching and yet cheap? |
13738 | What the play of human elements? |
13738 | What was danger to anybody? |
13738 | What was death if you had seen how he had died? |
13738 | What was she like now? |
13738 | What was the big lesson of all your journeying?" |
13738 | What was the difference between a Gray and a Brown? |
13738 | What was the use? |
13738 | What was to be done? |
13738 | What were chiefs of staff to him? |
13738 | What were they waiting for? |
13738 | What will they say at such-- such a jump for a colonel?" |
13738 | What would Partow say? |
13738 | What would Westerling do if he found her out? |
13738 | What would become of the army and the nation?" |
13738 | What would such a war mean in reality to the soldiers engaged? |
13738 | What''s the matter? |
13738 | What? |
13738 | What?" |
13738 | When he does, you would have a message go out to our people that will set them quivering with indignation?" |
13738 | When was he to be executed? |
13738 | When was this?" |
13738 | When were they going to shoot? |
13738 | Where are our high- angle guns?" |
13738 | Where could a secret be safe if not in the keeping of an army staff? |
