61467	What do you want?

61467	Why such a difference? 61467 You know what I think?"
61467	And why shovel hands instead of proper tools?
61467	But do n''t your conversions make the changeling comfortable in his new environment?"
61467	But what if it was Dorr, coming back alone to dispose of him without any witnesses?

61467	Next time they stopped the girl turned to Asa with a frown and asked,"Just how does Dorr think he can get away with this?"
61467	What was the night like on Jordan''s Planet?
10337	Oh, Silvia, are you not wilful and cunning? 10337 What have you done with Mrs. Tebrick, sir?
10337	What is now to become of me? 10337 What is this, Silvia?"
10337	Where are your children, Silvia?
10337	Am I not dreaming?"
10337	And had she not always found him a good husband to her?
10337	And has he not reason for his pride?
10337	And he asked her, were they not married?
10337	And then speaking to her in this manner:"Are you not ashamed, Silvia, to be such a madcap, such a wicked hoyden?
10337	And where is she now, sir?"
10337	Are you a monster in your soul as well as in your body?
10337	Are you trying to escape from me?
10337	At last however he resolved on it, and all the more as his vixen kept asking him in the gentlest way:"Might she not go out into the garden?"
10337	Aye, indeed, what would become of his vixen and her children?
10337	But in the middle of the night he woke up with his head very clear, and said to himself in wonder,"Am I not a madman?
10337	But then, catching her grave look, he would say:"Do you think I jest on these things, my dear?
10337	Can a man have his honour sullied by a beast?
10337	Can my dignity allow of my being jealous of a beast?
10337	Cork?"
10337	Could he still love her after that?
10337	Does not this butchery and eating of raw meat and rabbit''s fur disgust you?
10337	Firstly he asked himself: Was not his wife unfaithful to him, had she not prostituted herself to a beast?
10337	For he asked himself also:"Was he not jealous?"
10337	Have you forgotten what it is to be a woman?"
10337	He called to her then, saying:"Silvia, Silvia, why do you do this?
10337	I love you, Silvia; is it because of that that you want to fly from me to go into the world where you will be in danger of your life always?
10337	Is it such torment to be with me?"
10337	May she not have thought it easier to change him thus than ever to change herself back into being a woman?
10337	So that with his gazing on her and knowing her well, even in such a shape, yet asking himself at every moment:"Can it be she?
10337	What do you do there?"
10337	What dreadful change is this?"
10337	What if they were foxes?
10337	When he had forgot the hour for his meal she would come and tug his sleeve and tell him as if she spoke:"Husband, are we to have no luncheon to- day?"
10337	When he was outside, however, he asked Mr. Tebrick:"You do n''t have many visitors now, eh?"
10337	Where does she live?"
10337	Why are you so savage now?
10337	he said very quietly,"what is this?
5200	Am I less sensitive than I used to be, then? 5200 Are n''t you coming any closer, then?
5200	Can the chief clerk come in to see you now then? 5200 Dead?
5200	Did you understand a word of all that?
5200	Gregor, Gregor, he called,"what''s wrong?"
5200	Mother?
5200	My child, said her father with sympathy and obvious understanding,"what are we to do?"
5200	Well? 5200 What do you mean?
5200	What is it you want then? 5200 What now, then?
5200	What shall we take now, then? 5200 What''s happened to me?"
5200	What''s happened?
5200	Where is our breakfast? 5200 And what''s more, would he have been entirely wrong in this case? 5200 And why was she crying? 5200 Are n''t you well? 5200 At the other side door his sister came plaintively:Gregor?
5200	But what now, if all this peace and wealth and comfort should come to a horrible and frightening end?
5200	Ca n''t you understand I have to see him?
5200	Did n''t you want to go somewhere?"
5200	Did you hear the way Gregor spoke just now?"
5200	Do you need anything?"
5200	Had he really wanted to transform his room into a cave, a warm room fitted out with the nice furniture he had inherited?
5200	Had the alarm clock not rung?
5200	He really ought to have expected things to have changed, but still, still, was that really his father?
5200	He seemed, unfortunately, to have no proper teeth- how was he, then, to grasp the key?
5200	How can that be Gregor?
5200	How had his sister managed to get dressed so quickly?
5200	Should he really call for help though, even apart from the fact that all the doors were locked?
5200	So where are you going, in to the office?
5200	So why did his sister not go and join the others?
5200	Someone must have heard them in the kitchen, as Gregor''s father called out:"Is the playing perhaps unpleasant for the gentlemen?
5200	The chief clerk now raised his voice,"Mr. Samsa", he called to him,"what is wrong?
5200	Was he an animal if music could captivate him so?
5200	What about if he reported sick?
5200	What should he do now?
5200	Who, in this tired and overworked family, would have had time to give more attention to Gregor than was absolutely necessary?
5200	Why did Gregor have to be the only one condemned to work for a company where they immediately became highly suspicious at the slightest shortcoming?
5200	Will you please just let me leave?
5200	Will you report everything accurately, then?
5200	Would Gregor''s elderly mother now have to go and earn money?
5200	Would his sister have to go and earn money?
5200	Yes, but was it possible to quietly sleep through that furniture- rattling noise?
5200	Yes?
51519	Am I stopping you?
51519	Any family?
51519	Anything for this afternoon?
51519	But_ how_?
51519	Can_ I_?
51519	Do you feel all right?
51519	How long''s it been this way?
51519	How old is that boar pig?
51519	How would you police such a world? 51519 Is it just the general health factor?"
51519	Is that what you''re doing? 51519 Is the cat out here a lot?"
51519	Is this possible? 51519 Just get back?"
51519	No-- law?
51519	Pipe dreams for hogs?
51519	Same litter and dosage?
51519	The whole year?
51519	What are these for?
51519	What is it?
51519	What was it?
51519	What was that?
51519	What''s going on here?
51519	What''s wrong with it?
51519	When did you find him?
51519	Who?
51519	Why do you have to get mixed up in it?
51519	Worried? 51519 You want me to stop scanning?"
51519	You-- Frank-- will you stay for a few days?
51519	Amos, do you believe in werewolves?"
51519	And if it did, and they began selling it...."What would it do to human beings?"
51519	And why had n''t he been able to save himself?
51519	Been able to get your margin up any?"
51519	But what regulates the colony?
51519	But what was the choice?
51519	By the way, how you coming on that animal hormone?"
51519	Can a human mind be compressed into a cat''s brain?"
51519	Do n''t you remember the book we read three years ago?
51519	Do n''t you suppose you could call me Amos now?"
51519	How do you mean?"
51519	How many men do you have on it?"
51519	How''s the family?
51519	Mescaline, especially?"
51519	Mr. Parry, are you familiar with hypnotics?
51519	Physically, I mean?"
51519	Question is, how''d it happen?"
51519	Scanning what?"
51519	Still morning out there, eh?
51519	What is an animal?
51519	What maintains the pattern?"
51519	What would happen if something removed the wall and woke up the other ninety- nine per cent?"
51519	When can I call about the autopsy?"
51519	When do you think we can have it?"
51519	Why?
31664	Ah,Iversen remarked waggishly,"so there are one or two things you do n''t know about Flimbot, eh?"
31664	And then what will we do?
31664	And what comes next?... 31664 Are n''t you happy to see your little friend again, Harkaway?"
31664	But I can never forgive myself, sir--"Are you trying to go over my head?
31664	But if the fuel tanks are empty,he asked of no one in particular,"where did the power come from?"
31664	But if the soul transmigrates and not the body,he argued,"what harm is there in consuming the vacated receptacle?"
31664	But that''s right-- a butterfly does live only a day, does n''t it?
31664	But why bother with all that?
31664	Did n''t the Flimflim say everything on Flimbot was mine? 31664 Did you bring along the proper food for that-- that thing?
31664	Do n''t tell me you profess to speak the language already?
31664	Do n''t their ships have any?
31664	Does it, indeed? 31664 Does it?"
31664	Flimbot or_ mpoola_?
31664	Have you no tolerance, Captain, no appreciation of the joys of golden youth?
31664	Have you tested those air and soil samples yet?
31664	He seems to communicate and that is the ultimate objective of language, is it not?
31664	How can you have learned all about their religion, their doctrine of reincarnation, in just four ridiculously short weeks?
31664	How can you say that?
31664	How come you gentlemen are still with us?
31664	How do you know all this?
31664	How do you know we do n''t?
31664	How do you know what we become? 31664 I mean does it appear like that, sir?
31664	Is he-- is he going to die?
31664	Is there no end to your accomplishments, Lieutenant?
31664	Look here, sir,he began tensely,"have you read Harkaway''s book about_ mpoola_?"
31664	Looks it, does n''t it?
31664	Looks it, does n''t it?
31664	Oh, have you found yourself at last?
31664	On what basis?
31664	Once the ship has been purchased, what will our course be? 31664 Playful little fellow, is n''t he?"
31664	Remarkable, I''ll grant you, but is it accurate?
31664	Sir,said the first officer,"may I speak frankly?"
31664	Then why did the Flimbotzik fill the tanks with wine when I distinctly told him to ask for water?
31664	They go through space, do n''t they? 31664 Well, I''ve been here two weeks and I''ve survived, have n''t I?"
31664	What I''d like to know is what happened to the_ mk''oog_, then--"The m''koog, you mean? 31664 What am I going to do?"
31664	What else?
31664	What is the extremest intensification of individuality? 31664 What truly sensitive soul could exist in a stultifying atmosphere like this?"
31664	What''s that thing you''re carrying there?
31664	Which great discovery?
31664	Who was seeking what?
31664	Why disaster?
31664	Why doom?
31664	Would you have_ wanted_ them to be hostile?
31664	You-- you speak Terran?
31664	A new- born infant was weak; why not a new- born adult, then?
31664	Ah, everywhere it goes, humanity spreads the fell seeds of death and destruction--""Are you a doctor or a veterinarian?"
31664	And even if such be needful, why must the personal essence be trammeled by the same old worn- out habiliments of error?
31664	And who has to discover it?
31664	Are we sure that death is not life and life is not death?
31664	But how can I leave Bridey in the hands of the IEE(E)?"
31664	But were n''t the Flimbotzik virtually primitive?
31664	Can we say definitely and definitively that life is life and death is death?
31664	Cuddly little fellow, is n''t he?"
31664	Ironic, is n''t it?"
31664	Is Man the highest form of life in an irrational cosmos?
31664	Is there no escaping that cretin''s name?"
31664	It makes our discovery the more worthwhile, does n''t it?"
31664	So they were all there, were they?
31664	The book began:"What is the difference between life and death?
31664	We''ve become great pals, have n''t we, little fellow?"
31664	Were not even his last moments to be free from persecution?
31664	What did you say the name of the species as a whole was?"
31664	What good is a body like this if I can not use it to its fullest?"
31664	What if the Flimbotzik are less primitive than you fancied?
31664	What, he wondered, had come to pass?
31664	What, in other words, are we to do?"
31664	Why could n''t it have been one of the other officers who had discovered the Flimbotzik?
31664	Why did they have to take their embarrassment and humiliation out on an innocent little animal?
31664	Why did this one go like that?
31664	Why should I not speak your tongue?"
1666	And Byrrhena spake unto mee and sayd, I pray you Cousine how like you our countrey?
1666	And dost thou live here as a ghost or hogge, to our great shame and ignominy?
1666	And if it had so come to passe that this fearefull maid had beene slaine by him, what danger had we beene in?
1666	And moreover she sayd, O Lucius, I have nourished thee with myne owne proper hand: and why not?
1666	And to counterfeit the matter, he would come to Charites and say: O what a losse have I had of my friend, my fellow, my companion Lepolemus?
1666	And when I was out I cried, O sirrah Hostler where art thou?
1666	And wil you not cease in your husbands armes?
1666	And you( you harlot) doe you not goe to see your parents?
1666	And( espying a Church on the top of a high hill) she said, What can I tell whether my husband and master be there or no?
1666	Are you in the mind that you will not tarry in Thessaly?
1666	Art thou afraid of the old woman more then halfe dead, whom with a stripe of thy heele thou maist easily dispatch?
1666	Be you not afraid of spirits?
1666	But I finely feigning and colouring the matter for the time, did breake off his talk, and tooke him by the hand and sayd, Why tarry we?
1666	But I pray you tell me how have you been the cause and mean of my trouble and sorrow?
1666	But Venus began to cry and sayd, What hath my sonne gotten any Love?
1666	But what gainest thou through my delay?
1666	But whither shall I fly?
1666	Canst thou not goe?
1666	Come on, we will beare you company?
1666	Commest thou hither to eat, where we should weepe and lament?
1666	Couldest not thou( that so often in his life time diddest spurne and kicke him) defend him now at the point of death by the like meane?
1666	Did not I alwayes give thee a charge?
1666	Did not I gently will thee to beware?
1666	Do dead men use to run away in this Countrey?
1666	Doest thou not know( Foole as thou art) if thou be naked, if ten Gyants should assaile thee, they could not spoyle or rob thee?
1666	Doth he seeme alwayes unto you to be a childe?
1666	For what availed the theeves: the beasts savage: thy great servitude: the ill and dangerous waits: the long passages: the feare of death every day?
1666	How happy shall we be, that shall see this Infant nourished amongst so great plenty of Treasure?
1666	How shall I represse this beast?
1666	I being then forced by necessity, though it were against my wil, uncovered the bodies: but O good Lord what a strange sight did I see, what a monster?
1666	I pray thee gentle bird that doest serve me so faithfully, tell me what she is, and what is her name that hath troubled my son in such sort?
1666	If Jupiter transformed himselfe into a Bull, why may it not be that under the shape of this Asse, is hidden the figure of a man, or some power divine?
1666	If you be a bird, where shall I seek you, and when shall I see you?
1666	In their returne homeward they murmured within themselves, saying, How say you sister to so apparent a lye of Psyches?
1666	In what cave or darknesse shall I hide my selfe, to avoid the furor of Venus?
1666	Is this an honest thing, is this honourable to thy parents?
1666	Know you not in what place you be?
1666	Know you not that we use to take no gage, unless it be either plate or Jewels?
1666	Knowst thou not that the theeves have ordained to slay thee?
1666	Mary( quoth shee) do you see these Bay windowes, which on one side abut to the gates of the city, and on the other side to the next lane?
1666	O rash and bold lampe, the vile ministery of love, how darest thou bee so bold as to burne the god of all fire?
1666	Or have you forgotten of what yeares he is?
1666	Or shall I seeke for counsel of every poore rusticall woman?
1666	Or why did they not slay thee likewise?
1666	Passe you all the day and the night in weeping?
1666	Saw you not sister what was in the house, what great store of jewels, what glittering robes, what Gemmes, what gold we trod on?
1666	Shall I aske ayd of myne enemy Sobriety, whom I have often offended to engender thee?
1666	The Hostler lying behinde the stable doore upon a pallet, and half asleepe, What( quoth hee) doe you not know that the wayes be very dangerous?
1666	Then Thrasillus having found opportunity to worke his treason, said to Lepolemus: What stand we here amazed?
1666	Then Venus with indignation cried out, What is it she?
1666	Then answered he, I will tell you soone, but brother I pray you tell mee of your comming from the isle of Euboea, and how you sped by the way?
1666	Then he laughed upon me saying: How long shall we nourish and keepe this fiery Asse in vaine?
1666	Then one of the shepheards said: Why doe we not make sacrifice of this common adulterous Asse?
1666	Then one of them that came last answered, Why are you only ignorant, that the greater the number is, the sooner they may rob and spoyle the house?
1666	Then said Fotis, Wil you go about to deceive me now, and inforce me to work my own sorrow?
1666	Then said I, It is well nigh day, and moreover, what can theeves take from him that hath nothing?
1666	Then said the shepheards, What?
1666	Then there came forth a maid which said, Ho sirrah that knocks so fast, in what kinde of sort will you borrow money?
1666	Then thought I with my selfe, Alasse where is faith?
1666	Then with resemblance of admiration, What( quoth I) is she so excellent a person as you name her to be?
1666	To what a point am I now driven?
1666	To whom I answered, I pray you maid speak more gently, and tel me whether thy master be within or no?
1666	To whom he made answere saying: Doe you looke for any meate or drinke, or any other refection here?
1666	To whom shall I seeme to tell any similitude of truth, when as I shall tell the trueth in deed?
1666	We most humbly intreat you to pardon his fault if he have accorded to the mind of any maiden: what do you not know that he is a young man?
1666	What a comfort will it be unto all the house?
1666	What crime hast thou committed?
1666	What did he think that I was a bawd, by whose shew he fell acquainted with the maid?
1666	What do I finde heere?
1666	What do I know whether he( whom I seeke for) be in his mothers house or no?
1666	What is he that in so short a space can become so old?
1666	What is that?
1666	What judgement was there likewise amongst the Athenian lawyers, sage and expert in all sciences?
1666	What lodging shall I seek?
1666	What meane you to revenge your selves upon us, that doe you no harme?
1666	What meane you to rise at this time of night?
1666	What shall I do?
1666	What sudden change of all my sorrows?
1666	What thinke you to gaine by us?
1666	What, dost thou make thy selfe ignorant, as though thou didst not understand what travell wee have taken in searching for thee?
1666	What, thinke you( quoth she) to deprive our young men of the price of your ransome?
1666	What?
1666	When night was passed Venus called Psyches, and said, Seest thou yonder Forest that extendeth out in length with the river?
1666	Where is his great and new cut?
1666	Where is his wound?
1666	Where is remorse of conscience?
1666	Where is the Sponge?
1666	Wherefore sell you this fish so deare, which is not worth a halfepenny?
1666	Which when I heard, I sayd to one who passed by, What is here to doe?
1666	Which when her husband did heare, he demanded of her by what reason she knew it?
1666	Whither shall I goe?
1666	Who is he that passeth by the way and will not take me up?
1666	Why did they spare thee that stood by and saw them commit that horrible fact?
1666	Why do I not take a good heart, and offer my selfe with humilitie unto her, whose anger I have wrought?
1666	Why do we not give him to some body for he earneth not his hay?
1666	Why doe I delay?
1666	Why dost thou not looke for thy death?
1666	Why dost thou not rather tell us where thou hast hidden the boy whom thou hast slaine?
1666	Why dost thou rashly yeeld unto thy last perill and danger?
1666	Why dost thou seek thine own harme, and mine likewise?
1666	Why knocke ye your breasts for me?
