| 59243 | And how about my off hours,_ Captain_,Parker said, emphasizing the word as though it were obscene;"then may I fraternize?" |
| 59243 | And without the sense of touch? |
| 59243 | But what about Parker? |
| 59243 | Hiding? |
| 59243 | Now what? |
| 59243 | What does it mean? |
| 59243 | What? |

| 59243 | Actual or symbolic? |
| 59243 | After awhile, Parker said,"Do you suppose they''re both mirages?" |
| 59243 | For what? |

| 59243 | Let him do what he wants here; what difference does it make if the natives do n''t know what''s happening?" |

| 61052 | And who told these creatures that a space ship''s metal finders could be fooled by a little more than a hundred feet of solid rock? |
| 61052 | But how could primitives do what these must have done? |
| 61052 | But we have n''t really been changed yet, have we?" |
| 61052 | For the return of their leader-- or for something that would give the ship to them? |
| 61052 | For what? |

| 59172 | What''s the hunch? |

| 59172 | Where''s Willie? |
| 59172 | Where''s Willie? |
| 59172 | Why would a planet have ferns and nothing else, not even the beginning of animal life? |
| 59172 | Why? |
| 59172 | You ca n''t stay here, Willie,Tom began,"how are you going to live, to eat?" |
| 59172 | Did n''t you feel anything about this planet, Tom?" |
| 59172 | Do n''t you understand? |
| 59172 | How about you, Tom? |
| 59172 | How much difference is there from our sun?" |

| 58639 | The_ what_? |
| 58639 | Those are your ranks, are they not? |
| 58639 | We do n''t care for all this...."Married? |
| 58639 | What''s that? |
| 58639 | What? |
| 58639 | Worried? |
| 58639 | Yes? |
| 58639 | You know? |
| 58639 | You mean Mars is in exactly the same state of development as Earth? |
| 58639 | You were in space for four years, were n''t you Captain Galus? |
| 58639 | Are the inhabitants intelligent?" |
| 58639 | By S. A. Lombino Only one question seemed important in this huge space venture: Who was flying where? |
| 58639 | Ca n''t you understand that we are Earthmen? |
| 58639 | Do you understand? |
| 58639 | Galus and Lt. Dale, please?" |
| 58639 | How the hell could we possibly be mistaken for them?" |
| 58639 | I understand the strain of space, gentlemen, but we must be practical, must n''t we?" |
| 58639 | Is it possible the joke is on us? |
| 58639 | Is n''t it wonderful?" |
| 58639 | Look, ca n''t you get this through your heads? |
| 58639 | We''d like you to stay as long as you want to, but....""For God''s sake,"Cal snapped,"will you please listen to me?" |
| 58639 | What do we have to do to prove it?" |
| 58639 | What else does Earth have? |
| 58639 | What is it like? |
| 58639 | Why a pity? |
| 58639 | Why am I arguing with you? |
| 58639 | Why do you say that?" |
| 58639 | _ Just exactly what?_ He tightened his grip on the big blasters, and trained the guns around to where Dave puttered in the sand. |
| 58639 | _ We''re_ Earthmen, ca n''t you understand that?" |
| 58639 | _ What''s out there?_ Cal wondered. |
| 30901 | And how do I win? |

| 30901 | C- coffee? |
| 30901 | Can you trust that Jorgensen? 30901 Do they use... er... real money?" |
| 30901 | Do they? |
| 30901 | Everything okay? |
| 30901 | How about some coffee? |
| 30901 | How about taking him out for a drink so an old customer can squeeze in for a few plays? |
| 30901 | How''d you make out? |
| 30901 | Howlet, how about having a word with your shipmate? |
| 30901 | I... ah... suppose the closer you come, the more you win, eh? |
| 30901 | Introducing some friends to the best hamburger joint on Mars? |
| 30901 | Look, Tony,she said after a pause,"what makes you think I could n''t settle down with him? |
| 30901 | Oh, you three make the ship go, huh? |
| 30901 | Over a-- on account of_ you_? |
| 30901 | What about the sandeaters you promised to stake? |
| 30901 | What makes him your buddy? |
| 30901 | What''re you gon na say? 30901 What''s he done wrong?" |
| 30901 | What''s that? 30901 When do you figure to start?" |
| 30901 | Who''s that? |
| 30901 | Why should I? |
| 30901 | You tryin''to say I could n''t make a home here? 30901 You wanna get yourself lynched?" |
| 30901 | Coffee all around and we''ll get on course, eh?" |
| 30901 | Dining room still open?" |
| 30901 | He has a job to do, or some such canal dust?" |
| 30901 | If I had it to do over again? |
| 30901 | It would have been nice to see Meadows wind up rich, or for Howlet to become mayor of the dome, but what could I do? |
| 30901 | Know what he''s doing?" |
| 30901 | Like to buy her coffee?" |
| 30901 | Music too?" |
| 30901 | See that silver spiral going out from Venus and around the table to the orbit of Saturn? |
| 30901 | What would you do right now with a million? |
| 30901 | Where''s Hughie and his little friend? |
| 30901 | Which one should I have talked into staying for the sake of love or money or power, without even being able to go in his place? |
| 30901 | Why say"superstition"? |
| 30901 | You a spacer?" |
| 30901 | _ How many never know how close they come to making their mistake, or being a statistic in somebody else''s?_"Why the double trance?" |
| 30901 | _ How many never know how close they come to making their mistake, or being a statistic in somebody else''s?_"Why the double trance?" |
| 30901 | _ How many pick their landing?_ I thought. |
| 30901 | coffee?" |
| 61007 | And are you completely happy here? |
| 61007 | And ca n''t you mix another kind of shining paint? 61007 And do you think that you will ever die?" |
| 61007 | And have you gotten no older in all that time? |
| 61007 | And the damnest thing about it,muttered Langweilig,"is, how are you going to prove him wrong? |
| 61007 | And your daughter, or niece? |
| 61007 | Are there any other people here? |
| 61007 | But are there any others? |
| 61007 | But are we not people? |
| 61007 | But is there more than one man or woman? |
| 61007 | Can we have something to eat? |
| 61007 | Do you consider yourself a knowledgeable man? |
| 61007 | Ha- Adamah, is it allowed to eat the apples? |
| 61007 | How could there be more than one of anything? |
| 61007 | How would there be any others? 61007 How?" |
| 61007 | What do you make of them? |
| 61007 | What is there, Adam? |
| 61007 | What? |
| 61007 | Why in cosmos would we want an armed escort? |
| 61007 | You do n''t want to visit any of the other areas first? 61007 You, a man of the cloth doubt it? |
| 61007 | Adam, old man, how about a game of checkers?" |
| 61007 | Adam, old man, how long have you been here?" |
| 61007 | And us ready skeptics convinced by our senses? |
| 61007 | And you, my good man, what is your handle, your monicker, your tag?" |
| 61007 | Are we not people?" |
| 61007 | But would it be possible for the exact same proposition to maintain here as on Earth?" |
| 61007 | Father Briton, you are the linguist, but in Hebrew does not Ha- Adamah and Hawwah mean--?" |
| 61007 | How about it, Adam? |
| 61007 | How could there be other people?" |
| 61007 | How is it that you use the English tongue?" |
| 61007 | Shall we follow the rest of the surface to find another, or concentrate on this? |
| 61007 | Somewhere away from the thoughtful creature?" |
| 61007 | The captain was a little puzzled by this, but he went on doggedly:"Ha- Adamah, what do you think that we are? |
| 61007 | What other kind of people could there be than man and woman?" |
| 61007 | Where is that bright light coming from?" |
| 61007 | Why do you doubt?" |
| 61007 | Would it show Thought on the body? |
| 61007 | You would n''t have a drink on you for a tubful of thirsty travellers, would you?" |
| 63473 | ... How could there be? 63473 Anti- radiation screen?" |
| 63473 | Are we going straight? |
| 63473 | Clear around the city? 63473 Does all this, this whole place, look at all familiar to you?" |
| 63473 | Have you a better idea? |
| 63473 | Here? |
| 63473 | How should I know? |
| 63473 | I wonder where it gets its power? |
| 63473 | Is this it,Wass murmured,"or an auxiliary?" |
| 63473 | Martin, what if there are no reservoirs? 63473 Neither were the-- well, shall we call them, people? |
| 63473 | Shall we, gentlemen? |
| 63473 | That''s all we need, is n''t it? |
| 63473 | The shield? |
| 63473 | The wind--? |
| 63473 | To the switchboard, Martin? |
| 63473 | Wass? |
| 63473 | We may have to...."What? |
| 63473 | Well, Skipper, are you going to do the honors? |
| 63473 | Well, skipper...? |
| 63473 | Well? |
| 63473 | What do you suppose caused this? |
| 63473 | What do you think you''re doing? |
| 63473 | What else? |
| 63473 | What would you suggest, instead? |
| 63473 | What''s holding up the procession? |
| 63473 | What''s the matter? |
| 63473 | Why did n''t you answer? |
| 63473 | Why not? |
| 63473 | Why not? |
| 63473 | Worried? |
| 63473 | You mean_ dig_ out? |
| 63473 | You too, Wass? |
| 63473 | You''d rather monkey with the switches and blow yourself to smithereens? |
| 63473 | Eleven levels later Rodney asked,"How much time have we now?" |
| 63473 | Have you noticed how low everything is?" |
| 63473 | Hear me, Rodney?" |
| 63473 | How far do you think it goes?" |
| 63473 | I wonder what they were like?" |
| 63473 | If the band around the city is responsible for the dome, does it project down into the ground as well?" |
| 63473 | If they would n''t grow there.... Or had they, once? |
| 63473 | Is it?" |
| 63473 | Or cold storage units? |
| 63473 | Parallel evolution on two inner planets of the same system? |
| 63473 | Remember the wind? |
| 63473 | Remember? |
| 63473 | Rodney said,"How does water help us get out?" |
| 63473 | See? |
| 63473 | Somewhere, sometime, a common ancestor? |
| 63473 | Then Martin said,"Did you listen until the end?" |
| 63473 | Then--"I wonder what it''s like here in the winter when there''s no light at all?" |
| 63473 | Then--"It was n''t.... Why did you close the hatch then?" |
| 63473 | Wass said, more quietly,"Remember that metal band? |
| 63473 | Wass, how much time have we?" |
| 63473 | What if there are cemeteries instead? |
| 63473 | What keeps all that up there?" |
| 63473 | What''s the matter, Wass?" |
| 63473 | Why not, after all? |
| 63473 | Why not?" |
| 63473 | Why?" |
| 59174 | All right, what do the counters tell you? |
| 59174 | All right, you get my point? 59174 Am I always supposed to say his name twice?" |
| 59174 | And you know what, Sam? 59174 Are we all not one under the sun?" |
| 59174 | Had n''t you oughtta read that thing? |
| 59174 | I mean-- hell, they could be from Earth--"Ever hear of an Earthman with two hearts, Skipper? 59174 Naturally, there would n''t be any bodies around to prove your theory, would there, Skipper? |
| 59174 | No objections to the artillery this time, I take it, Sam? |
| 59174 | Psychologically what? |
| 59174 | Ready? |
| 59174 | So the long arm of Superior Civilization has reached out its clanking claws again to make the Universe a Better Place to Live in, has it? 59174 So,"he said slowly,"so he told you he did n''t know, did he?" |
| 59174 | Sure, and what''s it got us, Sam? 59174 That makes''em bad, I suppose?" |
| 59174 | Was_ that_ in the contract you made with them? 59174 What can it matter where he is from?" |
| 59174 | What class? |
| 59174 | What is it you''re lonely for, Nicholas? |
| 59174 | Why intruders? 59174 You do n''t trust them at that, do you, Nicholas?" |
| 59174 | You going to talk to me, Nicholas, or pass out before you get the chance? |
| 59174 | You''re sure some expedition did n''t get here before we did? |
| 59174 | You''re sure, Sam, about leaving my guns back at the ship? |
| 59174 | You''re surprised that they''re not cluttering up the roads, trying to get a closer look at us? |
| 59174 | _ Reasonable?_Joel thundered. |
| 59174 | A bellyful of cold, aching loneliness-- our guts twisted and squeezed until the life''s dried up in''em-- and what do we get? |
| 59174 | All right, got the''copter ready?" |
| 59174 | And when the_ kaelli_ was at last freed, he said,"Now then, where can I take you? |
| 59174 | And who, any more a man than himself, could dare to be judge? |
| 59174 | Any questions?" |
| 59174 | As intruders to begin with, my men and I--""Intruders, sir?" |
| 59174 | But sometimes-- sometimes, even when a man knew he was fooling himself, he had to give it a try, just to see--"They went native, did n''t they, Sam?" |
| 59174 | Did n''t the grinning idiot know it must have been an awful pill for these people to swallow all at once? |
| 59174 | How do you know what the hell they mean by reasonable?" |
| 59174 | I-- ah, you hurt?" |
| 59174 | Sam, has Dobermann given you any practice in their lingo? |
| 59174 | The psychology of the thing is obvious enough, is n''t it?" |
| 59174 | They''re willing to meet our terms, that it?" |
| 59174 | What do those wrangling, yapping, bellyaching rotters back home give us for it? |
| 59174 | What do you want to bet they''re still going strong, who or wherever they are out in that black hell up there? |
| 59174 | What do you want to bet, Sam?" |
| 59174 | What the hell is it you''ve got holed up out there?" |
| 59174 | Where there was something beautiful, why in the name of anything holy or otherwise should it be covered up? |
| 59174 | Wrong, was it? |
| 59174 | You got any Bond with you, Southard?" |
| 60743 | Always cautious, hey, Skipper? 60743 And one that makes a tree grow_ rooms_?" |
| 60743 | And those rooms-- there are four of them-- scaled to people_ our_ size? |
| 60743 | And what have you decided about us? |
| 60743 | Anyone see where he went? |
| 60743 | But has there been anything else since Decontamination was set up? |
| 60743 | By what? 60743 Cut to_ our_ size?" |
| 60743 | Dan,I said as we went into orbit,"did Alex come aboard?" |
| 60743 | Fortunately? |
| 60743 | How''d you guess? |
| 60743 | Huh? |
| 60743 | Like Alex? |
| 60743 | Lyrane? |
| 60743 | No,I admitted,"but that was enough, was n''t it? |
| 60743 | Okay, Skipper, but what''ll I do? |
| 60743 | See anything unusual? |
| 60743 | The Bureau ship that landed this morning? |
| 60743 | Think my job''s exciting? |
| 60743 | Want me to call a psychologician? |
| 60743 | What about those benches? |
| 60743 | What did you do to him? |
| 60743 | What''s wrong? |
| 60743 | When we gon na land, Skipper? |
| 60743 | Where did you stay that first night? |
| 60743 | Where is he? |
| 60743 | Who wants to? |
| 60743 | Why should we? |
| 60743 | Why? |
| 60743 | Why? |
| 60743 | Wrong? |
| 60743 | You and the ship? |
| 60743 | You sure you''re all right? |
| 60743 | You will be leaving soon? |
| 60743 | You''re a reporter, are n''t you? |
| 60743 | And does a man change his habits of eating just because he is fat?" |
| 60743 | Besides, how did they know that there''d be four of us?" |
| 60743 | But what is too easy and how much is too much? |
| 60743 | How many of them do you estimate there are? |
| 60743 | Then why the noble savage act? |
| 60743 | What about it?" |
| 60743 | What are these natives like? |
| 60743 | What cultural level are they? |
| 60743 | What did they do to you besides making you a strip- tease artist? |
| 60743 | What do they look like? |
| 60743 | What else? |
| 60743 | What''s wrong?" |
| 60743 | Where did this savage learn to operate the circlet and how did he recognize its purpose? |
| 60743 | Where?" |
| 60743 | Why had n''t one of us carried the discussion a bit further? |
| 60743 | Why were they trying to hoodwink us? |
| 60743 | You understand? |
| 59438 | And what do you predict I''m going to do right now? |
| 59438 | Any questions? |
| 59438 | Anything you have to add to all that? |
| 59438 | Are there any further comments? |
| 59438 | But did n''t you hear the alien tell us to make no attempt to contact our home base or he''d destroy us at once? |
| 59438 | But if he meant what he said about not notifying Earth, why has n''t he already destroyed us? |
| 59438 | But_ if_ they find us? |
| 59438 | Ca n''t you understand that? |
| 59438 | Do n''t you think it''s better we discovered subspace than if we were still back trying to beat the speed of light in our own universe? |
| 59438 | Do you think they''ll ever find us? |
| 59438 | Find us? 59438 Friction?" |
| 59438 | Good Lord, man, do you mean to say that you''ve been sending messages to Earth right along? |
| 59438 | Hello, Bridge? |
| 59438 | How do you know he''s got one? |
| 59438 | How do you mean? |
| 59438 | Lovely, are n''t they, Broussard? |
| 59438 | Man? |
| 59438 | Mind if I join you? |
| 59438 | No aliens, eh? |
| 59438 | Radio silence? |
| 59438 | Shall we bother replying to it? |
| 59438 | So you feel the stars are lovely? |
| 59438 | That''s why therapy is so hard, is n''t it? 59438 Well, what''s next?" |
| 59438 | What do you mean, do n''t put away my Lewinian vector charts too soon? 59438 What does all this have to do with baseball?" |
| 59438 | What in God''s name makes a man''s personality so dear to him? 59438 You feel rather strongly about this, do n''t you?" |
| 59438 | ''God forsaken,''did we say? |
| 59438 | A few moments later, the alien added,"Are your recording devices in readiness?" |
| 59438 | After several moments of silence, Broussard cleared his throat and asked,"And which choice have you decided it must be?" |
| 59438 | And then he said,"Will all of you who have sufficient faith in me and my judgment please rise in assent?" |
| 59438 | Are you ready to give me your decision?" |
| 59438 | Could you possibly destroy it instead?" |
| 59438 | Did n''t you once tell me that? |
| 59438 | Did n''t you?" |
| 59438 | Do you understand?" |
| 59438 | Do you want to wait until Betsy decides that''s the one, or shall we take a chance and head for it first?" |
| 59438 | Exactly thirty minutes, do you understand?" |
| 59438 | Funny what the presence of one small pinpoint of light does to the blackness of a field, eh?" |
| 59438 | Funny, is n''t it? |
| 59438 | Giving vent to a well- disciplined snort, Captain Hawkins said,"And eventually the child either gets well switched or badly bitten, eh?" |
| 59438 | He almost shouted at the alien,"If we''re in such bad shape, why ca n''t you just go off and leave us alone? |
| 59438 | He paused for just a second, then added,"What''s it really like?" |
| 59438 | How come you did n''t stay for the game? |
| 59438 | How did you know it would work?" |
| 59438 | I may have a chance to use them on_ whom_?" |
| 59438 | So what did I do...?" |
| 59438 | That''s why constructive education is so difficult, is n''t it? |
| 59438 | The Dakn Empire? |
| 59438 | Then he went on,"Broussard, have you ever been out there in that stuff? |
| 59438 | Used to be what they called psychiatrists in England back in the old days, right?" |
| 59438 | Where do you want us to land?" |
| 59438 | Who''d dare to strike me out when I came to bat?" |
| 59438 | Who''s the Duty Officer?" |
| 59438 | Why ca n''t you just leave us alone in our little corner of it?" |
| 59438 | Why does it look so much blacker in that window now than any other black I''ve ever seen?" |
| 59438 | Why has it always been just about the last thing that a man will give up? |
| 60928 | And where are your women? |
| 60928 | But if you sleep? |
| 60928 | But it turned out okay, sir, did n''t it? |
| 60928 | Do you think we''ve discovered the Martians? |
| 60928 | Does he talk? |
| 60928 | Hey, were n''t there_ eight_ of those guys a while back? 60928 How does this thing-- well, how does it_ feel_ to you?" |
| 60928 | Huh? 60928 I mean, Ulkay and his bunch are okay, are n''t they?" |
| 60928 | Is he_ alone_, though? |
| 60928 | Is it not_ yours_? |
| 60928 | Is it something about Ulkay and his bunch? 60928 Like a spring- driven phonograph?" |
| 60928 | Of course, there''s no reason why it should feel at all_ hard_, is there? |
| 60928 | Ookl okkl? |
| 60928 | Sergeant,said Lloyd, trying to confide his fear to the other man,"when we got here, we were nervous about making contact with aliens, right?" |
| 60928 | So what''s eating me? 60928 These transparents you wear upon your faces, why?" |
| 60928 | Ulkay, do you mind if we ask you some questions? |
| 60928 | Ulkay, tell me, are you the last of your race, or are there others of your kind still left alive on Mars? |
| 60928 | Ulkay,he said softly,"would you tell_ your_ friends that we''re_ their_ friends? |
| 60928 | Ulkay,he said, going toward the machine,"does this work both ways?" |
| 60928 | Venusians? |
| 60928 | What''s bothering me? |
| 60928 | What--? |
| 60928 | What? |
| 60928 | When I saw you up the street, I envisioned a full- scale guerrilla attack and-- Damn, you''re not getting a word of this, are you? |
| 60928 | When he says he''ca n''t''tell you, does he mean he is physically unable to, or forbidden to? |
| 60928 | Where are his friends? |
| 60928 | Where are you from? |
| 60928 | Where are you? |
| 60928 | Where are_ you_ parked? |
| 60928 | Why should I wake up in the middle of the night feeling scared? 60928 Why would they bother, when hand- weapons would do?" |
| 60928 | Will your air supply not run out? |
| 60928 | You mean it''s unfashionable but serviceable? |
| 60928 | *****"Is it some sort of taboo or what?" |
| 60928 | A hunch? |
| 60928 | And did n''t Ulkay explain that the atmosphere on Venus is just as thin? |
| 60928 | Are n''t my men all present and accounted for? |
| 60928 | Are n''t they sleeping quietly, just as they should be?" |
| 60928 | But if they''re not going to be chums, why go to all this trouble? |
| 60928 | Can we be allowed the similar luck?" |
| 60928 | Intuition? |
| 60928 | Is this_ your_ planet?" |
| 60928 | Look, Ulkay, why do n''t both our groups get some rest and we''ll make our inspection tour of the city tomorrow, the two groups together?" |
| 60928 | Or do I call you by both names? |
| 60928 | Or just Mister Blet?" |
| 60928 | Or just alien- planet nerves?" |
| 60928 | So what am I scared of?" |
| 60928 | That''s them?" |
| 60928 | The only really odd thing about them is that they do n''t wear any breathing equipment in this thin air, right? |
| 60928 | Then the nozzle asked,"What trip?" |
| 60928 | Think you can rig a written or oral Rosetta Stone for us, Craig?" |
| 60928 | Wha?" |
| 60928 | Where the hell--?" |
| 60928 | Why do you now call it''Mars''?" |
| 60928 | You know what I mean, sir?" |
| 60829 | Come on down here, will you? |
| 60829 | Could I ask you something? |
| 60829 | Could you reverse the wiring in the computer? |
| 60829 | Do n''t you think I know I''ve gone too far? 60829 Do you know what, Starbuck?" |
| 60829 | Do you smoke, Ben? |
| 60829 | Have you had this machine long? |
| 60829 | Have you read any good books lately? |
| 60829 | How? |
| 60829 | If he thinks that''s run of the mill, Captain, I wonder what he will have to find to make him think it''s unusual? |
| 60829 | Is that what you had in mind, Ben? |
| 60829 | Is there a keyboard or something? |
| 60829 | Magnificent, is n''t it, Ben? 60829 Me? |
| 60829 | Mind if I say''hello''to the rest of the men? |
| 60829 | Noticed the dragon, did you? |
| 60829 | One of these days_ what_? |
| 60829 | Quick,Birdsel said,"do you have your IDQ file on you?" |
| 60829 | Schizoid? |
| 60829 | That was why the captain was acting so nutty? 60829 The hyperspace jump? |
| 60829 | Tums? |
| 60829 | Was there anything else you wanted to know? |
| 60829 | Well, what would you like to see first? 60829 What about them?" |
| 60829 | What do you want to know? |
| 60829 | What is it? |
| 60829 | What kind of an ethnologist am I? |
| 60829 | What''s it supposed to do? |
| 60829 | What, Kettleman? |
| 60829 | Why do n''t you stow your bag here, buddy? 60829 Would it?" |
| 60829 | Yes? 60829 You are n''t going to suggest that the brain reconsider or override its decision?" |
| 60829 | You know what the trouble with the human race is, Ben? 60829 You mean the captain?" |
| 60829 | You sent for me, sir? |
| 60829 | You want to talk about something? |
| 60829 | You want_ me_ down there? |
| 60829 | You''re not on their side? 60829 You''ve got one of those things?" |
| 60829 | _ Pssst._"Pssst? |
| 60829 | And guess who will play Jack Ketch personally?" |
| 60829 | And where did he find them? |
| 60829 | Got some muscles there, have n''t you? |
| 60829 | HOW''S THE WEATHER? |
| 60829 | Had Birdsel disposed of him as he had threatened?) |
| 60829 | How do you report to a spaceship? |
| 60829 | I suppose we''ll take a closer look, Captain?" |
| 60829 | Is that it? |
| 60829 | Mind if I lean on your shoulder a bit like this?" |
| 60829 | New man, eh? |
| 60829 | New man, eh?" |
| 60829 | Or would they? |
| 60829 | Ought to do it more often, eh, Ben?" |
| 60829 | Say,"Hello, spaceship?" |
| 60829 | Speak to the captain? |
| 60829 | That would be all right with the brain, would n''t it?" |
| 60829 | The brain?" |
| 60829 | The first mate? |
| 60829 | WHAT DID YOU DO WHILE YOU WERE NOT HERE? |
| 60829 | WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT TATTOOING? |
| 60829 | WHO IS THE NEW ONE? |
| 60829 | Was that all?" |
| 60829 | What are they going to do? |
| 60829 | What are they waiting for? |
| 60829 | What is it, Ben?" |
| 60829 | What''s wrong with them? |
| 60829 | Will you do that?" |
| 60829 | You can guide me, ca n''t you, sir? |
| 60829 | You do play that game like the rest?" |
| 60829 | You would n''t be a new man too, Percy?" |
| 62321 | A strange thing to you Earthmen? |
| 62321 | And when we reach twenty- nine million miles from the Sun-- then we''re on our own? |
| 62321 | Bob? 62321 Could n''t they rush ahead of their masters, trailing us?" |
| 62321 | Do n''t you think so? |
| 62321 | Do you suppose there''s only one of them? |
| 62321 | Is he the only one around here? 62321 It has an atmosphere?" |
| 62321 | Jan-- Oh, Jan, where are you? |
| 62321 | Just this one Org? |
| 62321 | Over there? |
| 62321 | Somewhere about here? 62321 Swim it?" |
| 62321 | That bond- line there-- see it? 62321 That''s valuable?" |
| 62321 | Then, when we head off to round the Sun, if Vulcan is where they think it is we ought to sight it in a few days? |
| 62321 | There''s a better chance of finding sizable deposits of allurium here than anywhere else? |
| 62321 | We follow orders? |
| 62321 | Well,Jan murmured,"not very hospitable- looking, is it? |
| 62321 | Well,he said,"Earthman? |
| 62321 | What is it, Bob? 62321 What is it?" |
| 62321 | What will the ore of_ allurium_ look like? 62321 What''s the idea?" |
| 62321 | What''s the matter? |
| 62321 | What-- what you do? |
| 62321 | Where you figure on landing? |
| 62321 | Where-- where were you? |
| 62321 | Which way, Ama? 62321 Which way?" |
| 62321 | Which way? |
| 62321 | Which way? |
| 62321 | Would a thing like that attack us, Ama? |
| 62321 | You all right now, lad? |
| 62321 | You can find the way back to the ship? |
| 62321 | You heard that whistle? |
| 62321 | You hope it''s inhabited, Jan? |
| 62321 | You know the way? |
| 62321 | You know the way? |
| 62321 | You smell the fire? 62321 You strong enough to start now?" |
| 62321 | You think you know the way? |
| 62321 | You will take me to my people? |
| 62321 | Your fren''--he did this? |
| 62321 | A Thing of rubber? |
| 62321 | A creature-- burning? |
| 62321 | A girl''s voice? |
| 62321 | A movement in there? |
| 62321 | A moving blob? |
| 62321 | A tangible thing? |
| 62321 | Abruptly his hand gripped my arm as he gasped,"Why-- good Lord-- what''s that? |
| 62321 | And in which direction? |
| 62321 | And the heat-- the fire? |
| 62321 | And where was Torrence? |
| 62321 | And where was that other Org, companion of the clumsy savage I had killed when it had tried to attack me? |
| 62321 | Bounding? |
| 62321 | But what was that? |
| 62321 | But what was this? |
| 62321 | Chasing the savage?... |
| 62321 | Do n''t you suppose there''s any moisture, or any vegetation?" |
| 62321 | From behind the little hill, answering shouts were responding...."Is it closer to your village, or to our ship?" |
| 62321 | Had Jan killed it? |
| 62321 | Had this weird enemy gotten Torrence so swiftly, so silently? |
| 62321 | He and that-- animal- thing which I killed?" |
| 62321 | Hot? |
| 62321 | I was up here-- I started down, but too late--""Where''s Bob?" |
| 62321 | If Jan had fought and killed it-- then where was he now? |
| 62321 | If it''s bad-- you suppose we ought to take shelter? |
| 62321 | In the blurring, blasting heat and smoke, she had untied us, but of what use? |
| 62321 | It did, did n''t it? |
| 62321 | Jan?" |
| 62321 | Like a little oasis, is n''t it?" |
| 62321 | Like you? |
| 62321 | New one?" |
| 62321 | See that?" |
| 62321 | Seemed that way, do n''t you think?" |
| 62321 | Someone coming? |
| 62321 | Something important?" |
| 62321 | Something not human, that had so quickly seized him and dragged him away? |
| 62321 | Started suddenly back, and called:"Is that you? |
| 62321 | Two minutes since I had left Jan? |
| 62321 | Understand?" |
| 62321 | Vaguely Jan recalled that I had left him and gone across the gully.... Where was I now?... |
| 62321 | Was he close to them, or far away? |
| 62321 | Was it two minutes now? |
| 62321 | Was the crouching savage with the girl still there across the gully? |
| 62321 | What had happened?... |
| 62321 | What strange organic material was this? |
| 62321 | What was I doing up there? |
| 62321 | What''s your name?" |
| 62321 | Where had I gone? |
| 62321 | Where we go?" |
| 62321 | You are Earthman?" |
| 62321 | You hear?" |
| 62321 | You want to come and look?" |
| 62321 | You want to locate that_ allurite_?" |
| 62321 | Your report and mine-- to tell them the hazards of this trip--""We should go back?" |
| 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...?" |
