26332 | After all these years? |
26332 | And just how does one eat dinner with an electronic computer? |
26332 | And where are you going to hang the medal? |
26332 | But what did you mean by that remark about this being the king''s problem? |
26332 | How do you figure that? |
26332 | Know what? |
26332 | Well? |
26332 | What does it say? 26332 Why,"he demanded of no one in particular,"did this have to happen to us?" |
26332 | Yet who else has made a comparable discovery? 26332 *****Is there any way we can keep the presentation secret?" |
26332 | Does she accept?" |
26332 | Or one that is even half as important?" |
26140 | All right, notice in my article I am writing on chromosomes-- chains of genes, and my field is--? |
26140 | Come now, Milt, do n''t you think you''re taking this a little too seriously? 26140 Did you write this?" |
26140 | Look, Milt, what''s the basic problem? 26140 Milt, did you ever stop to think how lucky we are? |
26140 | Milt, why do n''t you do some library work? 26140 So, what... how do you mean, Milt?" |
26140 | What do you mean-- can''t leave? 26140 How goes it? |
26140 | Is n''t it a matter basically of a breakdown in the interchange of ideas? |
26140 | Is there-- Why not have supper with me, and we''ll take in the movie in the lounge?" |
26140 | The present research job he was doing was coming slowly, but what difference did it make? |
26140 | What do I do? |
26140 | What was he accusing the man of? |
26140 | What was the good of his work, all this great installation, all the gleaming expensive equipment in the lab around him? |
26140 | Where can you get better equipment, help, coöperation in the country than here?" |
26140 | Why do security measures strangle research? |
26140 | Why? |
26140 | You going?" |
26168 | And do you know why? 26168 And how many cards went through the Personnelovac this month?" |
26168 | Be a good fellow, ca n''t you? |
26168 | Did n''t you know? |
26168 | Grimswitch, will you please let me alone? |
26168 | How did the meeting go? |
26168 | How do you mean, help_ me_? |
26168 | Huh? |
26168 | Me, sir? |
26168 | On the carpet, eh? 26168 See that?" |
26168 | So? |
26168 | Then where''s_ your_ Personnelovac report, Colihan? 26168 WHO would n''t it even fire?" |
26168 | Well, Ralph-- how goes it? |
26168 | Well, we ca n''t sit around all day and reminisce, eh, Ralph? 26168 What am I going to_ do_?" |
26168 | What can I do? |
26168 | What do_ you_ think, Ralph? |
26168 | What does it say? |
26168 | What? |
26168 | Where''s your Requisition Paper? |
26168 | Yes, sir, but--"_ So_ unusual that it would call for immediate ACTION, would n''t it? |
26168 | Yes, sir? |
26168 | _ Nothing_ wrong? 26168 _ Well, what does it say?_"repeated Moss. |
26168 | *****"Have you run through the stack yet?" |
26168 | And do you know something? |
26168 | And the point is-- what''s the reason? |
26168 | And who knows? |
26168 | And why not? |
26168 | But I checked the Brain--""Did you, Ralph?" |
26168 | But it''s my job, is n''t it?_ Colihan flipped the inter- com and proceeded to call Miss Blanche. |
26168 | But that''s quite an unusual record, would n''t you say so?" |
26168 | But we got a business to run, do n''t we?" |
26168 | Did you ever hear of Dimaggio?" |
26168 | Eh, Colihan?" |
26168 | Eh? |
26168 | How''s your side of it, Ralph? |
26168 | Now-- how do you spell it?" |
26168 | Old Personnelovac hummin''along nicely?" |
26168 | Say, did you ever climb a real apple tree and knock''em off the branches?" |
26168 | Temper a little short? |
26168 | That means dismissal, right? |
26168 | That''s twenty- four people fired in the last month, is that correct?" |
26168 | Understand?" |
26168 | Was Moss making some kind of point? |
26168 | Where is it?" |
26168 | Why, I''m not sure it would n''t even fire--""WHO?" |
26168 | Why? |
26168 | You call twenty- four firings out of forty_ nothing_?" |
26168 | You''re not_ afraid_, are you, Colihan?" |
26168 | _ But why bother? |
26168 | _ Does he know about it?_ he thought. |
26174 | And it worries you? 26174 But do n''t you see?" |
26174 | Can you do that? |
26174 | Got a watch? |
26174 | How the hell would I know? |
26174 | Is that remarkable? |
26174 | It might break even the Mahon machines in this installation? |
26174 | Sergeant,he said,"did I see a gleam in your eye just now?" |
26174 | That one ship,said Lecky blankly,"it defeated the rest?" |
26174 | Then where does the broadcast come from? |
26174 | Those lights look kinda nice, do n''t they? |
26174 | We follow? |
26174 | Well? |
26174 | What I''m wonderin''is, did we fool him? |
26174 | What can I tell you first? |
26174 | What kinda data do they want? |
26174 | What,demanded Howell,"what in hell are you talking about?" |
26174 | Who done this? |
26174 | Why do n''t he call me? |
26174 | Why not ask them,said Graves,"how to make a round square or a five- sided triangle?" |
26174 | You begin to believe the broadcasts come from the future? |
26174 | You noticed something that we missed, Sergeant? |
26174 | You plan something? |
26174 | _ What-- what is this?_cried his voice shrilly from the speakers. |
26174 | Are you guys game to feed it into this communicator''s output amplifier?" |
26174 | But why that special type-- that special wave?" |
26174 | But--3020? |
26174 | Did you notice how Betsy''s standby light was wabbling while she was bringin''in that broadcast? |
26174 | Do I signal with my ears and fingers?" |
26174 | Graves said:"Why does n''t it flicker like the others?" |
26174 | Graves said:"You mean it might break all operating communicators in a very large area?" |
26174 | Graves sputtered:"But-- dammit, do you mean we can work out a way to receive a broadcast and not be qualified to see it?" |
26174 | He added persuasively:"But a machine can lie, Sergeant? |
26174 | Howell and Graves and Lecky went under strict guard until they could be asked some thousands of variations of the question,"Why did you do it?" |
26174 | Howell said angrily:"It''s got to be tried, has n''t it?" |
26174 | Is that the reasoning?" |
26174 | Okay?" |
26174 | Quick? |
26174 | Remember?" |
26174 | See? |
26174 | See?" |
26174 | See?" |
26174 | The small scientist asked curiously:"What are you preparing, Sergeant?" |
26174 | Understand? |
26174 | We need to talk to you!--Can you give me the stuff about that bug that''s gon na wipe out half of us? |
26174 | What defense could Earth devise against science such as this?_[ Illustration: Did the broadcasts foretell flesh- rending supersonic blasts?] |
26174 | What defense could Earth devise against science such as this?_[ Illustration: Did the broadcasts foretell flesh- rending supersonic blasts?] |
26174 | What do you want to know about Betsy?" |
26174 | What shall we do, Sergeant?" |
26174 | Who''ll join me?" |
26174 | Will you help us, Sergeant? |
26174 | Would n''t it be reasonable to guess that Mahon machines are-- uh-- especial adapted to handle intertemporal communication?" |
26174 | Would that be possible?" |
26174 | You contacted 3020? |
26174 | You gentlemen care to join me?" |
26174 | You see what that means?" |
26174 | You want to come show it, Doc?" |
26093 | And their judgment of Earth--? |
26093 | But just what_ are_ they doing? 26093 Ca n''t you guess?" |
26093 | Can you stand to witness this? |
26093 | Can you tell us what that other ship is? |
26093 | Change of ship? |
26093 | Critical mass? 26093 Do they suppose smoke signals are superior to the 3-d screens in our homes?" |
26093 | Does something happen to everybody who takes the Mars trip, the same thing that happened to Alice? |
26093 | Explain to you? |
26093 | Have you lost your mind? 26093 How do you know that?" |
26093 | How do you know who I am? |
26093 | How well did you know your wife before you married her? |
26093 | I wonder--"What do you mean? |
26093 | Is everyone different when they get back? |
26093 | It has something to do with what happened-- before? |
26093 | It''s_ huge_--how can such an enormous ship ever get off the Earth? |
26093 | Not even give her a burial? 26093 Shall I get you a sedative?" |
26093 | That time when I escaped from the Martian Princess rather than come aboard the black ship? |
26093 | That was n''t true? |
26093 | Then there was no great, black ship out of space? |
26093 | They set themselves up as judges in the Universe? |
26093 | Was she a member of a large family? |
26093 | What are you going to do with all of us? |
26093 | What are you going to do? |
26093 | What can I do to help you? |
26093 | What can I do? |
26093 | What do you expect? 26093 What do you mean by that? |
26093 | What do you mean,''In normal circumstances--''? |
26093 | What happened to her? 26093 What were her parents like?" |
26093 | What? |
26093 | What_ can_ I do with you? |
26093 | Where? 26093 Why? |
26093 | You do n''t expect to ever take a trip to Mars, do you? |
26093 | You mean this dictatorial Council determines whether a world is fit to survive and actually wipes out those it decides against? |
26093 | After all our hopes and all our planning you do n''t want to go on to Mars?" |
26093 | Afterwards, he said,"Where are we? |
26093 | And what did it all have to do-- if anything-- with the unbelievable thing Dr. Winters had found about Alice? |
26093 | Are you crazy, Mel?" |
26093 | But if that''s the case, where is Alice?" |
26093 | But what about outside? |
26093 | But what had happened to Alice? |
26093 | Did it exist anywhere in all the world? |
26093 | Do we need any more room to finish the journey?" |
26093 | Had he actually made such a trip and been stripped of the memory by some amnesia? |
26093 | Had he nearly let some unknown cat out of the bag? |
26093 | Hastings?" |
26093 | How could such a thing have taken place? |
26093 | I must have had something to do with it, do n''t you think?" |
26093 | I wonder where it''s coming from?" |
26093 | Is n''t there a drug, a hypnotic method, or something to help a thing like this?" |
26093 | She loved me, ca n''t you understand that?" |
26093 | Taking groups of Earthmen, deporting them to other worlds-- breaking them apart from each other forever--?" |
26093 | Then she cried out,"We ca n''t even bury her?" |
26093 | Was her condition merely the result of some freak heredity or gene mutation? |
26093 | What do they intend? |
26093 | What happened? |
26093 | When will it be?" |
26093 | Where was reality? |
26093 | Who can say what their rights are?" |
26093 | Who will believe him that you came on the Martian Princess? |
26093 | Why have you been looking for me?" |
26093 | Why should there be such a transfer of passengers in mid- space? |
26093 | Why was she different after her trip to Mars?" |
26093 | Why?" |
26093 | Will you help me or not?" |
26093 | Would she want me to do what the Doctor has asked? |
26093 | You do n''t expect them to play nurse to us during the whole trip, do you?" |
26093 | You know about her do n''t you?" |
16834 | ''Did you ever know of his favoring schools or churches by gifts or otherwise?'' 16834 ''Then you love her still, Bernard?'' |
16834 | Ah, yes, Christine, but have you been true all these years? |
16834 | And where was he buried? |
16834 | Beg pardon, ladies,said the doctor as he entered,"you sent for me I believe?" |
16834 | But Leo, why do you put the ring on the third finger before marriage? |
16834 | But what about the last one- fourth payment in preferred shares of$ 1,250,000? |
16834 | But what shall count for a meal? |
16834 | But where is the kitchen? |
16834 | But, doctor, ca n''t you do something now for us? |
16834 | Captain Morgan, then you really promise a smooth passage? |
16834 | Captain, have you a panacea for seasickness? |
16834 | Captain,inquired Leo,"do you think we shall have a pleasant voyage?" |
16834 | Certainly, child, invite her, and I am sure, Mr. Searles, that you concur in my daughter''s plan to increase our party at dinner, do you not? |
16834 | Do n''t you see, Mr. Searles, that protection and free trade are equally selfish and not philanthropic principles? |
16834 | Do you think this possible? |
16834 | How do you know he has a home, mother? |
16834 | How so? |
16834 | I am a bankrupt then,said Mrs. Harris,"but how about my daughter Lucille?" |
16834 | If it is settled, Gertrude, then it is settled, I suppose, but how do you think May and I can get ready in so short a time to go to Europe? |
16834 | Is your name Patsie? |
16834 | Mr. Siemen, tell us please how the steamer is lighted? |
16834 | Narrow escape for whom? |
16834 | Now what''s to be done? |
16834 | Now, dear, what have you to say? |
16834 | Of course, you will accept the position? |
16834 | Ready by noon? 16834 Stewardess, where are you? |
16834 | This is Wednesday, Captain, and do you really think you will land us in the Mersey by Monday evening? |
16834 | This is wonderful, Leo,said Mrs. Harris;"can you tell us where and when icebergs are formed?" |
16834 | Well, Colonel Harris, how would the following terms please you? 16834 Well, May,"said George, as he kissed her,"can you get ready by noon tomorrow?" |
16834 | What about his death? |
16834 | What are the duties of the stokers? |
16834 | What do they mean? |
16834 | What if the Norsemen did first discover America? |
16834 | What in the world do you want of our thumbs? |
16834 | What is the cause of this terrible seasickness, doctor, and what can you do for us? |
16834 | What monuments? |
16834 | What quantity of coal do you use? |
16834 | What report, marquis? |
16834 | What shall I do with this vast army? |
16834 | What''s the matter, Reuben? |
16834 | Why did the men strike at the very time when father wanted his mills to glow with activity? |
16834 | You seem to win your case,said Major Williams,"what romance in history will be left us? |
16834 | You surprise me, Leo, but what was the report? |
16834 | ''Stranger, wo n''t you stand up again so that the audience can see you? |
16834 | After our return from Europe, why ca n''t we all spend our winters in New York?" |
16834 | After the committee retired, the mayor said,"Well, Colonel Harris, what will be the outcome?" |
16834 | Alfonso answered,"Why not take a drive, and possibly attend some church?" |
16834 | Am I dreaming, or not?" |
16834 | Are n''t you glad now, that you, and your sister May are going with us? |
16834 | But for whom shall we gather the gain? |
16834 | But what of that? |
16834 | But where were Red Cloud and kind- hearted Mariposa? |
16834 | CHAPTER XXVII THE CRISIS What is of more value to civilization, or what commands a greater premium in the world than successful leadership? |
16834 | Ca n''t you stop it? |
16834 | Can you help me?" |
16834 | Did he leave a competency? |
16834 | Did she thus intend to say,"I love you?" |
16834 | Did you say you knew the man?'' |
16834 | Do n''t you see the specks of blue low down on the horizon to the northeast? |
16834 | Dr. Argyle said,"Judge, what do you think of novels anyway?" |
16834 | Finally he shouted,"Slaves, will you tamely submit to all this indignity and not resent it? |
16834 | Gertrude and George were strong and helpful, both educated, unselfish and ambitious; why should they not succeed? |
16834 | Has the senator been prompted by the spirit of your anxious father, or is there evil in the communication?" |
16834 | How can you divide it with me? |
16834 | How do you like being fenced out from your work? |
16834 | How was he ever to earn a living for two, if Gertrude should possibly say"yes?" |
16834 | I wonder what it all means? |
16834 | If asked,"How rich?" |
16834 | If not, would the family receive such assistance as would enable the daughter, if Rosie Ricci was her daughter, to obtain a further musical education? |
16834 | If she had flowers, fruit, books, pretty gifts, or money, her first thought always was,"How can I make somebody happy?" |
16834 | Is n''t the ship going down?" |
16834 | Leo, who was fond of the ocean, said to Alfonso,"Why ca n''t we all be sailors? |
16834 | May Ingram said,"Mr. Worth, how do you arrange designs?" |
16834 | Mayor Duty, what do you advise us to do?" |
16834 | Now Mr. Searles, what is the fourth requisite?" |
16834 | Now what will give you all the most pleasure to- day?" |
16834 | Of what use is our so- called civilization if it permits such brutal scenes? |
16834 | One or two lumps?" |
16834 | Rosie picked it up saying,"Mother dear, what is the matter? |
16834 | She sank back into an easy chair on the steamer, murmuring,"Why this terrible disappointment? |
16834 | She wanted George near her as she traveled, so each could say to the other,"Is n''t it beautiful?" |
16834 | Soon Alfonso said,"Leo, how about your own former love, Rosie Ricci? |
16834 | The present issue was,"Will the company pay an increase of wages?" |
16834 | Then the issue was,"Will the company recognize the demands of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers of America?" |
16834 | Trask, will you pardon me if I say a few words?'' |
16834 | Trembling she said,"Leo, you have given Rosie up forever then?" |
16834 | What can you do? |
16834 | What chance of recognition had Cousin against Columbus, the protégé of this Pope?" |
16834 | What do you think he said, George? |
16834 | What faculty of educators can lay claim to all the best methods of evolving characters? |
16834 | What is your advice?" |
16834 | What say you to this? |
16834 | What shall be the laws of accumulation and distribution? |
16834 | What shall we do? |
16834 | What terrible news does it contain?" |
16834 | What will your families do for a roof when the snows come and you have no bread for your children? |
16834 | Why did I not at once sacrifice all and share his misfortunes? |
16834 | Why did I not turn back with my husband? |
16834 | Why do n''t you hurry when I ring? |
16834 | Why should they expect us to share with them our property, title to which the United States has guaranteed? |
16834 | Will you go?" |
16834 | Would I reject him? |
16834 | You and your mother or Lucille and I?" |
16834 | You have a ring of beaten gold on your finger, did it come from near here?" |
7344 | An elopement without a carriage- and- four and a blacksmith? 7344 And so you are glad, Archie?" |
7344 | And walking all the same like he was ten year old, sir: and it did give us all a turn; and if you please, sir, what do you say to_ that_? |
7344 | And your promise? |
7344 | Archie thrashed him at fisticuffs,said the old man of war to himself,"and why should n''t he get the better of him in other ways as well? |
7344 | Are you as happy with him as the day is long? |
7344 | Are you hurt? |
7344 | Ay, and what''s the compensation in that? 7344 Ay, and where did he walk to?" |
7344 | Ay, you do love me, do n''t you, Kate? |
7344 | Bellowing all the time, eh? |
7344 | Books are very well for make- believe, but when it comes to downright earnest, use a tongue of your own-- eh? |
7344 | But my father-- where is he? 7344 But who ever heard of a child changing his whole nature all in a moment?" |
7344 | But you are certain? 7344 Can you tell me what is the matter with me? |
7344 | Compensations? 7344 Do you know me, my dear?" |
7344 | Do you love anybody? |
7344 | Do you love no one beside him? 7344 Do you mean to say you are not my wife, Kate?" |
7344 | Do you often ride out in autumn? |
7344 | Do you think of me by that name? |
7344 | Do you think so? |
7344 | Go?--go where? 7344 Have you never had a secret from him, Kate?" |
7344 | Is it for him you fear, or for me? |
7344 | Is it true? |
7344 | It is true, then, that you are angry with me? 7344 Mamma,"said he, going up to her chair, and standing there awkwardly,"where is Kate?" |
7344 | My poor lad, you can not see him now-- he... he--"Where is he? |
7344 | Nonsense, you are crazy.... And so you only care for me to spite him? |
7344 | Promise, come what will, you''ll never marry him; eh, Kate? |
7344 | Shall I pour you out another glass? |
7344 | Somebody else? 7344 Then how did you get here?" |
7344 | This day? |
7344 | Was she married to- day? |
7344 | Well? |
7344 | Well? |
7344 | What am I? |
7344 | What could I think? 7344 What else can I do, when my husband is away from home? |
7344 | What has Sir Archibald Malmaison to say to me? |
7344 | What is the matter, Kate? |
7344 | What is the use? 7344 What is the use?" |
7344 | What is the use? |
7344 | What shall we do? |
7344 | What should he care whether I am yours or not? |
7344 | What were you doing in this room? |
7344 | What? |
7344 | Where is my father? |
7344 | Who are you? |
7344 | Why do you always repeat what a person says, without seeming to know what it is? 7344 Why, is n''t all in a moment better than inch by inch? |
7344 | Yes; and if I''d come in at the moment and asked you what you were singing, could you have told me? 7344 You did-- when?" |
7344 | You do n''t regret me, then, at all? |
7344 | You do? 7344 You told him, then?" |
7344 | You want me? |
7344 | ... is it to be our wedding?" |
7344 | After all, was not he the descendant of his forefathers? |
7344 | Am I mad?" |
7344 | Am I not Dick, thy own dear old Dick-- eh?" |
7344 | Among them, why did the foolish face of crazy old Jane, his wife of many years ago, persist in obtruding itself? |
7344 | And had he, by that time, acquired astuteness sufficient to cheat the other party to the contract of his due? |
7344 | And if so, might not the slumberer, after a longer or shorter interval of wakefulness, fall asleep again? |
7344 | And if so, was that another-- that man who issued from behind a clump of bushes, and came toward her? |
7344 | And now, what use would he make of it? |
7344 | And she was leading him to the pool; and what then? |
7344 | And there is that constant forefinger pointing-- at what? |
7344 | And was it not criminal negligence in him to have suffered her to escape from her attendants? |
7344 | And what meant that peculiarly intent and slightly frowning glance which the painted eyes forever bent upon his own? |
7344 | And what was on the other side of this partition? |
7344 | And why had fate selected him to discover it? |
7344 | And why had this secret been suffered to pass into oblivion? |
7344 | And why was it so deadly cold? |
7344 | And yet, what could be his defence? |
7344 | And, after all, what business was it of theirs? |
7344 | Are such prolonged slumbers an ordinary occurrence? |
7344 | Are you... oh, what are you?" |
7344 | As for Miss Battledown, surely she has a right to marry whom she pleases, has n''t she?" |
7344 | But after all he had to go some time; and then what happens? |
7344 | But in that case, who but Archibald could have put it there? |
7344 | But then, what was it? |
7344 | But was it certain that Archibald was not mistaken? |
7344 | But was that Jane after all? |
7344 | But what living thing-- living with mortal life at least-- could exist in a room that had been closed for sixty years? |
7344 | But whither would this chase lead? |
7344 | Can my boy marry her? |
7344 | Could Kate have put out the lights and gone off? |
7344 | Could she be asleep? |
7344 | Darling, you will not mind being a prisoner for a little while, since love will be a prisoner with you?" |
7344 | Did Mr. Pennroyal consider that people might say that the death of his wife was no loss to him, but the contrary? |
7344 | Did he build his hopes upon a possible break in the chain of Pennroyal''s evidence? |
7344 | Did he expect his future wives to go the road of the first one? |
7344 | Did he still exist anywhere? |
7344 | Did the worthy gentleman work his way into his third half century? |
7344 | Do you think the water is frozen yet?" |
7344 | Fearing? |
7344 | Have we not been friends-- have we not been together from the first? |
7344 | Have you forgotten Lord Orville and Evelina?" |
7344 | Have you forgotten all that? |
7344 | Have you never hummed a song when you were doing your embroidery, and thinking about-- about Lady Snaffle''s elopement with the captain?" |
7344 | He do n''t recollect what he''s been dreaming-- why should he?" |
7344 | How came_ you_ here?" |
7344 | How could such a thing have happened? |
7344 | How could you believe that I could wish you any harm?" |
7344 | How else could I have come?... |
7344 | How many thousand pounds do you think he''d give to kiss this little hand as I kiss it now? |
7344 | How should it? |
7344 | I said I should like to see the scoundrel who would dare to marry Kate Battledown-- and-- and what is that to you?" |
7344 | I told you once-- do you remember that day? |
7344 | I wanted my Kate to tell me she loved me-- eh?" |
7344 | If she gave her heart to Archibald, and then Archibald became somebody else, what shall we say became of her heart? |
7344 | Is it agreed? |
7344 | Is she to be blamed if she sighed with a passing regret at that hero''s mysterious disappearance? |
7344 | It is all very well to say that the boy was asleep for seven years and then woke up; but what does such a statement mean? |
7344 | It was going the very path that old Jane had gone that day, many years ago-- her last day on earth; and yet, was she not here again to- night? |
7344 | It was not to be expected that Archibald would be able to modify the terms of the bargain in his own case: was he, then, prepared to pay the price? |
7344 | Kate,"he broke off suddenly,"how did Richard know that those papers were missing in our family? |
7344 | Kate... will you give me a kiss now? |
7344 | Kate....""Well?" |
7344 | Might she dream of ever meeting him again-- that hero?...! |
7344 | Must it not have been irretrievably lost, and shall we be surprised if we hereafter detect in her a tendency to heartlessness? |
7344 | Ned, why were n''t you open with me? |
7344 | Or, might there after all be a power in necromancy that he yet dreamed not of? |
7344 | Out of all the wreck of his small memory, why was this song, the meaning of which he had never understood, the sole survivor? |
7344 | Pray, dear Doctor, what is your opinion?" |
7344 | Seven years?--or was it only yesterday? |
7344 | The question that now confronted him and challenged his ingenuity was, What was the matter with Archibald? |
7344 | Then that notion that the papers were lost was a mistake?" |
7344 | This, by itself, was nothing very remarkable; the puzzle was, how could he do it now? |
7344 | Was fate, which he had hitherto found so adverse, going to change at last, and yield him everything at once-- revenge and love in the same breath? |
7344 | Was he a changeling after all? |
7344 | Was he going to rely upon the title having remained so long unquestioned? |
7344 | Was it a ghost? |
7344 | Was it mocking him for fearing to come? |
7344 | Was it possible that even now those old enchanters held their meetings here, and would question his right to force his way among them? |
7344 | Was it signalling him to come away? |
7344 | Was it that his affection for Mr. Pennroyal had kept it alive? |
7344 | Was it that the boy was shamming? |
7344 | Was it the dark closet, then, that adjoined the east chamber on the other side of the partition? |
7344 | Was poor old Jane the first member of the Malmaison line who had shown any special weakness or peculiarity in the upper story? |
7344 | Was she praying? |
7344 | Well, then, that''s clear now, ai n''t it?" |
7344 | What are you doing on your knees? |
7344 | What compensations? |
7344 | What could be the object of it? |
7344 | What could it be? |
7344 | What could she have meant by that? |
7344 | What does it mean?" |
7344 | What good does her being an heiress do me? |
7344 | What had happened? |
7344 | What has happened? |
7344 | What have you been doing? |
7344 | What is fiction, at best, but an imitation of truth-- and a pretty poor imitation, too, as a general thing?... |
7344 | What the devil do you mean?" |
7344 | What was Kate doing, he wondered? |
7344 | What was Sir Charles pointing at with that left forefinger? |
7344 | What was the elder Dr. Rollinson''s real opinion about Archie''s relapse? |
7344 | What was the matter with the mantelpiece? |
7344 | What were they saying about a wedding? |
7344 | What will he do now? |
7344 | What, then, was the object, and what the grounds, of the charge which Pennroyal made? |
7344 | When did you bring me here? |
7344 | Where did you find the papers?" |
7344 | Where had gone that cheerful fire which was burning so ardently on the hearth half an hour ago? |
7344 | Where in the heavens or the earth or under the earth, indeed, was he? |
7344 | Which would you rather be, a photographer or Michael Angelo? |
7344 | Who was he, indeed? |
7344 | Who was that young woman in front of him? |
7344 | Who, I''d like to know?" |
7344 | Whom had he to love, or to love him? |
7344 | Why did it wear that look of stupid, unreasonable reproach? |
7344 | Why did n''t you say all this to me at first, brother? |
7344 | Why do you look so strangely?" |
7344 | Why was he not the same now as then? |
7344 | Will you permit me to inquire whether you are armed?" |
7344 | Will you promise something?" |
7344 | Will you promise that?" |
7344 | You have the proof? |
7344 | and what had some of them been? |
7344 | and when could he have put it there save in his sleep? |
7344 | do n''t you love me?" |
7344 | what do you mean? |
7344 | what has happened?" |
7344 | yes, unreasonable; for how was he to blame? |
29809 | Air? |
29809 | All right to talk? |
29809 | An attack? |
29809 | And how about you, old man? |
29809 | And so,I said,"we don these things and stroll out into the Atlantic looking for the girl and her friends?" |
29809 | And so? |
29809 | And the chart of our course-- did the return trip check with the other? |
29809 | And then? |
29809 | And this hump on the back? |
29809 | And we have thirty men? |
29809 | And what will you do? |
29809 | Anita, listen: if anything happens and we have to make a dash--"Up through that dome- lock, Gregg? 29809 Are you ready, Anita?" |
29809 | Are you ready, dad? |
29809 | Are you setting a course, dad? |
29809 | But how do you expect to be able to land at the other end any more than this? |
29809 | But how, Mercer? 29809 But we''ll get back all right?" |
29809 | But what place is this? |
29809 | But who would n''t, with a wire like this? |
29809 | But you do n''t have to leave the Earth, do you? |
29809 | But,said Bell practically,"do you accept my terms?" |
29809 | Can you make the leap? 29809 Commander Potan tells me you were chief navigator of the_ Planetara_?" |
29809 | Did n''t tell you where he was going? |
29809 | Did you say anything about the Atom Smasher, Parrish? |
29809 | Do you know the penalty for that? |
29809 | Do you think I''ve been idle during these five years of my exile? 29809 Eh? |
29809 | Feel anything wrong with your head, Dent? |
29809 | Fools, did you think you could escape that way? |
29809 | From-- your father? 29809 George Prince''s sister? |
29809 | Gregg, do you see anything up there? 29809 Gregg, what is it?" |
29809 | How long will it take us to get back? |
29809 | How many of them? |
29809 | I mean, do you know just where we are? |
29809 | If we were all to jump out, tied together-- don''t you think we might land-- somewhere near where we want to land? |
29809 | Is he bad? |
29809 | Is he-- bad? |
29809 | Is it an attack? |
29809 | Is that an airplane motor? |
29809 | Is this George Prince''s sister? |
29809 | Jim, darling, what''s going to happen to us if dad ca n''t find how to work the machine? |
29809 | Jim, do you feel something pushing you? |
29809 | Jim, do you realize what each vibration of this boat means? |
29809 | Josef? 29809 Know where we are, Dent?" |
29809 | Leave them here? |
29809 | Nothing in sight? |
29809 | Now, what''s the alternative? |
29809 | Ready, Dent? |
29809 | Shall we go out and see? |
29809 | So devilish clever.... What are we going to do? |
29809 | Suppose the machine continues to vibrate instead of coming to a standstill? |
29809 | Suppose we go up and see? 29809 That was for him?" |
29809 | The brigands? |
29809 | The merest drop of it? |
29809 | The open air seems good, does n''t it? |
29809 | The_ Planetara_ wrecked? 29809 Truly, do the Rorn become dead? |
29809 | What are they, Senhor? |
29809 | What are we going to do? |
29809 | What are you doing out on deck? |
29809 | What are you going to do, Gregg? |
29809 | What do you know? |
29809 | What is it, Argle? |
29809 | What is it, Jim? |
29809 | What is the matter? |
29809 | What is your trade, anyways? |
29809 | What the devil are we supposed to be, criminals or what? |
29809 | What will we do with the helmets? |
29809 | What''s this? 29809 What?" |
29809 | Where am I? |
29809 | Where are you going? |
29809 | Where are you hit, darling? |
29809 | Where are you now? |
29809 | Where is the city of Atlantis? |
29809 | Which way, Parrish? 29809 Who is the man to the left?" |
29809 | Who told you so? |
29809 | Why do n''t you ask my girl herself? |
29809 | Why do they smile at us all the time in that confounded way? |
29809 | Why should I hurry, Gregg? |
29809 | Why? |
29809 | Why? |
29809 | Yes, sir? |
29809 | You are Gregg Haljan? |
29809 | You do n''t remember the bearings, I suppose? |
29809 | You have on your Erentz suits: are you going to the dome- roof? 29809 You have signaled the men on shore to send out a boat to take us off?" |
29809 | You hesitate to give me your answer, Dent? |
29809 | You hurt? |
29809 | You know what that is, Dent? |
29809 | You mean that you''ve learned how to fly, you black imp of Satan? |
29809 | You mean you can actually do that? |
29809 | You mean,he said quietly,"that an airplane could not land?" |
29809 | You see? |
29809 | You speak English? 29809 You think the signal room is in the tower, Gregg? |
29809 | You think you''re able to face the world and take up life again? |
29809 | You were an officer of the_ Planetara_? |
29809 | You''re not remembering him after all? |
29809 | You''ve-- had it? |
29809 | _ Yes? 29809 ***** Was it true, that amazing story? 29809 A Martian? 29809 A flash from some giant projector mounted on the ship? 29809 A group of captured Drilgoes near it? 29809 A lurking Martian outside? 29809 A traitor in the camp? 29809 An error in the range? 29809 And do you know what I''ve been doing during all this hellish period? 29809 And then, in pictured form, for Imee''s benefit,It has been here while much time passed?" |
29809 | And this is the sister of George Prince-- what do you want up here?" |
29809 | And to whom could Wilks be signalling across this Lunar desolation? |
29809 | And was that the captured Atom Smasher standing between what looked like grinning idols? |
29809 | And was the third figure Miko? |
29809 | Anderson''s Favorites_ Dear Editor: Just a word referring to your"What kind of stories do you like?" |
29809 | Anita whispered,"Which is their giant electronic projector, Gregg?" |
29809 | Anita whispered:"Did he mean that signal room up here in the tower? |
29809 | Anita''s metal- gloved hand was on my arm; in my ear diaphragm her voice sounded eager and unmistakable:"What was the signal, Gregg?" |
29809 | Anything I can do?" |
29809 | Are Haljan and the girl up there with you?" |
29809 | But even if it struck, what guarantee had he that it would shatter the glass, or whatever substance it was that covered the orb? |
29809 | But how could I respond to it? |
29809 | But how...? |
29809 | But up there-- how would we get down?" |
29809 | But we''re a hundred and fifty miles off the Venezuelan coast, are n''t we?" |
29809 | But what can you do?" |
29809 | But what was happening in the other side of the Eye? |
29809 | By following the course in reverse we can expect to make Atlantis again--""Back to that horrible place?" |
29809 | Ca n''t we?" |
29809 | Ca n''t you give us some of the Francis Flagg type of fiction? |
29809 | Cain''s just my pet name for him because he subsists on the fruits of the earth, do n''t you, Cain?" |
29809 | Can you arrange to give me some sign that you''re safe?" |
29809 | Can you get hold of a bit of the antidote?" |
29809 | Could it be true that Tode had solved the practical problem of traveling in time, theoretically implied since the discoveries of Einstein? |
29809 | Creeping-- or would he make a swift, unexpected rush? |
29809 | Did Wilks see me coming? |
29809 | Did he believe me? |
29809 | Did n''t know I''d worked that out, did you? |
29809 | Did we dare linger here? |
29809 | Do you hear airplane motors?" |
29809 | Do you know what I''m going to do with you? |
29809 | Do you think to match your puny will against my own? |
29809 | Do you want to know where that land is? |
29809 | Down on the plains, perhaps? |
29809 | Going there? |
29809 | Had it been tampered with from outside? |
29809 | Had someone gone out this way and broken the mechanisms after him? |
29809 | Had the Earth caught our signal? |
29809 | Had the Earthlight touched him? |
29809 | Have n''t you changed the lamps, or something? |
29809 | He answered me in ready English:"You are the man Gregg Haljan? |
29809 | He desires my services?" |
29809 | He grasped Lucille, held her tightly against his breast, stood there drawing great, labored breaths, waiting-- for what? |
29809 | His light went out very promptly, did n''t it?" |
29809 | How about picking up a little treasure from the hoards of Solomon or Genghis Khan? |
29809 | How many deputies has The Master? |
29809 | How? |
29809 | I insisted,"And Miss Prince? |
29809 | I said sharply,"Are you the commander here? |
29809 | I said,"Before we go any further-- I can trust you for my share?" |
29809 | I think you have everything in hand? |
29809 | I turned toward one of the cubby windows; she said sweetly:"Are you in charge of this room? |
29809 | If Grantline appears down there now, I''ll help you--""Is it connected?" |
29809 | If Parrish was really alive-- why not Tode too? |
29809 | If deputies in two countries that we know of have so much power, how much power has The Master?" |
29809 | If you put me in the camp and the brigands attack it and I am killed-- what then? |
29809 | In telescopic view?" |
29809 | Is everything clear to you?" |
29809 | Is it you?" |
29809 | Is not that your reason?" |
29809 | It was sublime and terrible, and on the result of that conflict depended-- what? |
29809 | Miko dead?" |
29809 | Miko''s lights? |
29809 | Miko? |
29809 | Or had Miko rejoined his party, left his camp and come here like ourselves to climb Archimedes? |
29809 | Or had someone come in from outside? |
29809 | Or had the skulking Martian outside broken this lock as he had broken the other? |
29809 | Or land, perhaps, boldly crowded upon our little ledge? |
29809 | Or sail past, after inspecting us? |
29809 | Or up here, somewhere in these miles of towering rocks? |
29809 | Or was it not a light at all? |
29809 | Or was it two hours? |
29809 | Or was our assumption wholly wrong-- perhaps the brigand ship would not land near here at all? |
29809 | Or was that a local signal- call which he had sent out? |
29809 | Or would I instead try to send a brief flash- signal to Earth? |
29809 | Pack my bags right away, will you? |
29809 | Perhaps I have you to thank for that performance? |
29809 | Ready?" |
29809 | Seems simple? |
29809 | Shall we go ashore?" |
29809 | She added,"Where do you suppose the ship is? |
29809 | She will have her brother''s share?" |
29809 | Should I run? |
29809 | Should I try the flash- signal to Earth? |
29809 | So Bell said placidly:"Well? |
29809 | Suppose Miko were to see us following? |
29809 | Suppose he stopped and lay in ambush to fire at us as we came leaping heedlessly by? |
29809 | Suppose my signal were answered by a shot? |
29809 | Suppose you chaps turn around and take me to Ribiera''s house?" |
29809 | Taylor-- she has?" |
29809 | That''s what you wanted me to do, is n''t it?" |
29809 | The answer came:"_ Where is the Grantline camp?_""_ Near here. |
29809 | The brigand, Miko? |
29809 | The idea is that he must think you are trying to fascinate me, is it not?" |
29809 | Then where is she? |
29809 | This tower outside our window here?" |
29809 | Understand?" |
29809 | Understand?" |
29809 | Was Haljan killed? |
29809 | Was Wilks still up there? |
29809 | Was he advancing, preparing to signal? |
29809 | Was it Haljan standing up there on the summit? |
29809 | Was it premonition? |
29809 | Was that Gregg Haljan who fell?" |
29809 | Was this a farewell? |
29809 | We derive knowledge through one sense only, or, shall I say, a super- sense? |
29809 | Were we acting convincingly? |
29809 | Were we plunging rashly into what was destined to mean our death? |
29809 | What could I do, alone out here with Anita, to cope with this enemy? |
29809 | What could we do? |
29809 | What difference, when all this was forgotten history, antedating the written records of the human race? |
29809 | What does he want of the other men his deputies have enslaved? |
29809 | What had become of his plane, and where was Lucille? |
29809 | What had happened that Jim had won the Drilgo''s faith? |
29809 | What use to proceed further? |
29809 | What use was it to tell Grantline anything further? |
29809 | What was going to happen next? |
29809 | What was he doing with a hand- helio? |
29809 | What was it? |
29809 | What was reality, and what was dream, then? |
29809 | What were they doing there? |
29809 | What were you thinking about me?" |
29809 | What''s it all about? |
29809 | What''s it got to do with our nation?" |
29809 | Where are you? |
29809 | Where did you learn of_ yagué_?" |
29809 | Where is he? |
29809 | Where was he now? |
29809 | Who is The Master?" |
29809 | Who was it climbing the staircase? |
29809 | Why did Cain now look upon him, apparently, as his master? |
29809 | Why did he poison the Service men? |
29809 | Why do you ask me?" |
29809 | Why not have a discussion column and print some of the letters? |
29809 | Why not have a"Reader Talks"in Astounding Stories, where each reader gives his point of view on the stories in the magazine? |
29809 | Why should Wilks be signalling? |
29809 | Will that do to relieve your suspicions?" |
29809 | Will you be good enough to open this door for me? |
29809 | Will you get my diggings on the phone?" |
29809 | Would Brotow follow us up? |
29809 | Would he dare chance my sudden fire? |
29809 | Would it circle over us, firing at us? |
29809 | Would you-- would you assist me to go out on deck, where I might fling myself overboard? |
29809 | Yet how did I dare take Anita from these concealing shadows? |
29809 | You are called Anita? |
29809 | You do n''t remember what you did at the moment, boy?" |
29809 | You fool,"he added savagely,"why did n''t you come in with me in the old days? |
29809 | You got a password?" |
29809 | You heard of it? |
29809 | You kept the record on the way out as I instructed you?" |
29809 | You recall your little talk with the wireless operator on the_ Almirante Gomez_? |
29809 | You speak the Earth English?" |
29809 | You''ll see it all later, anyway-- if you feel you''d like to share the adventure with me?" |
29809 | You''re friendly?" |
29809 | panted Bell, and hurled himself upon-- whom? |
30452 | A cripple named Tugh? |
30452 | A ruler of all Mars? |
30452 | All right, now what? |
30452 | And it told you it would return? |
30452 | And that''s why you sent for me, Milton? |
30452 | And what after that? |
30452 | And what do you mean--''it was a gun?'' 30452 And why,"I intercepted,"did it stop here in 1935?" |
30452 | And you are the Martians with whom we have communicated? |
30452 | And you? |
30452 | Any luck? |
30452 | Are the rays on it, sir? |
30452 | Are these things goods to eat? |
30452 | Are we ready? |
30452 | Are you all right? |
30452 | Are you alone in there? 30452 Are you hurt badly?" |
30452 | But Milton? |
30452 | But can we get out? |
30452 | But how to get out of the hands of these, even? |
30452 | But the hour, Tina? 30452 But what compared with the power of ours?" |
30452 | But what could he have to do with this? 30452 But what you going to do?" |
30452 | But when do you intend to go back? |
30452 | But when? |
30452 | But where are we? |
30452 | But where would you be if I had not been able to bring you back? |
30452 | But-- which way are we going? |
30452 | Ca n''t take it in yet, Randall? 30452 Ca n''t you understand that you are under grave suspicion of having injured her, hidden her away? |
30452 | Can you talk? |
30452 | Can you,he said,"look at her there, and deny you loved her? |
30452 | Captain, may I present Miss Mildred Meriden? 30452 Could n''t a doctor do that better than you, if she is hidden somewhere about here?" |
30452 | Could you see it? |
30452 | Did it come from this house? |
30452 | Did n''t she say something about singing to the crabs? |
30452 | Did you look in the furnace? |
30452 | Did you notice the speed indicator, sir? |
30452 | Did you see the way the top of the pit closed above us? 30452 Do you hear it?" |
30452 | Do you hear me? |
30452 | Do you see these garments? |
30452 | Do you suppose those mushroom things are good to eat? |
30452 | Do you think we can land? |
30452 | Does it mean anything to you? |
30452 | Eat? 30452 For God''s sake, what is it?" |
30452 | Full power? |
30452 | Get anything, sir? |
30452 | Go? 30452 Gone?" |
30452 | Got what? |
30452 | Has it a wall around it? |
30452 | Has it any back yard, George? |
30452 | Have we struck it yet? |
30452 | Have we struck it? |
30452 | Have you forgotten how close I came to going to jail over those charges of yours a year ago? |
30452 | Have you forgotten the disgrace to me that followed?--the stigma that forced me to disappear for months? 30452 Have you forgotten,"he said,"that you talked the matter over with me before we split last year? |
30452 | Have you gone crazy, Milton-- or is this some joke you''ve put up with Lanier and Nelson here? |
30452 | Hours? |
30452 | How big was it? |
30452 | How did you know--? |
30452 | How did you manage to bring us back? |
30452 | How long ago did it happen? |
30452 | How long were you in the cage? |
30452 | How should I know? 30452 How should I know?" |
30452 | How''s the temperature? |
30452 | I mean, what year? |
30452 | I not know, Señor,came the hesitant reply,"but....""But what?" |
30452 | I trust, sir, that I did the right thing in following you with the_ Ertak_? |
30452 | I wonder how the rest of the men are? |
30452 | If men did n''t build this, what did? |
30452 | In 1777; but which month, would you say? |
30452 | Is n''t it great? 30452 Is that true, Quade?" |
30452 | Just what do you mean? |
30452 | Like a man? |
30452 | Must she come? |
30452 | No? |
30452 | Nor anything like it? 30452 Not built by men? |
30452 | Ott? 30452 Phil did n''t have one with him, did he?" |
30452 | Randall-- those scar- marks on their-- faces-- you see--? |
30452 | Rough looking country, is n''t it? 30452 Ruler?" |
30452 | Say, Jim, why not try for that shining mountain we saw? 30452 See?" |
30452 | So, you realized your great ambition, eh? |
30452 | Talk? 30452 Talk?" |
30452 | Ten minutes? |
30452 | The blooming clock''s upside down; can you read it? |
30452 | The ray crews are on duty, I presume? |
30452 | Then tell me who built that machine? |
30452 | Then there''s no life in those crimson jungles? |
30452 | Then you did kill her? |
30452 | Then? 30452 Was that what we heard back a ways?" |
30452 | We''re in a mess, are n''t we? |
30452 | We''re still here, sir? |
30452 | Well, if somebody''s making cold light, where does he use it? |
30452 | Were we seeing things? |
30452 | What are we to do-- tell the authorities? 30452 What are you doing here?" |
30452 | What are you talking about? |
30452 | What did it do? 30452 What did you see?" |
30452 | What do you mean, gone? |
30452 | What do you mean? |
30452 | What do you say, Sue? |
30452 | What do you want to do? 30452 What do you want us to do with you?" |
30452 | What has this to do with Miss Crawford? |
30452 | What have us? 30452 What have you done with young Holmes?" |
30452 | What is the number of that house on Patton Place? 30452 What is your name? |
30452 | What the devil''s the matter with you? |
30452 | What''s the matter with you? |
30452 | What''s the matter? |
30452 | What? |
30452 | Where is your mother? |
30452 | Where was he hidin''? |
30452 | Which way, Mary? |
30452 | Why did you evade her parents''inquiries? |
30452 | Why then could not matter be sent in the same way? 30452 Why-- why did they treat us so?" |
30452 | Why? 30452 Will it shock me?" |
30452 | Will it show on the mirror? |
30452 | Will you allow me to get him? 30452 Will you give the orders, please?" |
30452 | Will you please be quiet, my man? 30452 Will you tell your men to be quiet?" |
30452 | Would not you say so? 30452 You are the Earth- beings with whom we communicated, and whom we instructed to build a matter- transmitter and receiver on earth?" |
30452 | You found her, eh? |
30452 | You have come safely to Mars by means of that station? |
30452 | You know what this is? |
30452 | You leave me like thees? |
30452 | You mean to bring her back to life? |
30452 | You see it? |
30452 | You think we can reach the coast? |
30452 | You will not hurt me? 30452 You''re better now?" |
30452 | You''re not afraid? |
30452 | You''re sure it was outdoors? |
30452 | You''ve read Scott''s diary-- that he wrote after he visited the pole in 1912--the one they found with the bodies? |
30452 | Your orders, sir? |
30452 | Your pal, the greaser? |
30452 | ***** Pressing the attention signal for Kincaide, I spoke sharply into the microphone:"Mr. Kincaide, is every ray on that large meteorite above us?" |
30452 | ***** Sue Guinness''s lips formed a frightened word:"Why?" |
30452 | *****"Could you see anything outside the cage?" |
30452 | A brickbat: Why not cut the edges of the magazine smooth? |
30452 | A ragged cheer went up, and I heard Correy''s voice raised in angry conversation with the enemy:"You will, eh? |
30452 | About the radium?--the borer?" |
30452 | An hour? |
30452 | And do you?" |
30452 | And giving us a quarterly? |
30452 | And how about cutting the edges of the paper smooth? |
30452 | And that, if we are not careful, there will be an attack upon New York?" |
30452 | And who knew the thing would break?" |
30452 | And you are going back? |
30452 | And your little Space in the Future? |
30452 | And, as Sue gasped with relief, he added:"Would you like to see him?" |
30452 | Any choice in the matter of a spot on which to set her down?" |
30452 | Anyone who wished you harm?" |
30452 | Are they fish or flesh or fowl?" |
30452 | Are you all right, Larry?" |
30452 | Are you all right?" |
30452 | Are you hurt?" |
30452 | As big as Earth, you said? |
30452 | As he stepped to the door of the earth- borer he turned and asked:"How did you know our plans? |
30452 | Bullets would not stop the thing-- could anything? |
30452 | But by whom? |
30452 | But just a few minutes ago-- oh, am I dreaming? |
30452 | But the others? |
30452 | But what if the opening were a vertical, impassable tunnel? |
30452 | But why--""Why,"Larry burst out,"did that iron monster stop in 1777 and abduct this girl?" |
30452 | But you-- you will not hurt me? |
30452 | CHAPTER II_ From Out of the Past_"Sane?" |
30452 | Ca n''t you come to the door and open it?" |
30452 | Ca n''t you explain? |
30452 | Ca n''t you print at least one for an experiment? |
30452 | Can a man be disintegrated into his component atoms and then reintegrated into two men each half the size, weight, ability and brains? |
30452 | Can you hear me?" |
30452 | Can you hear me?" |
30452 | Can you?" |
30452 | Confusing? |
30452 | Correy?" |
30452 | Could you keep me from going? |
30452 | Did you happen to notice?" |
30452 | Did you hear the glad song I sang because you have come?" |
30452 | Do you agree to that?" |
30452 | Do you feel it?" |
30452 | Do you know how to write editorials? |
30452 | From his seat at the instrument table, Harl burst out:"So he murdered a girl of 1935, and has abducted another of 1777? |
30452 | Have n''t you guessed by now what I''m going to do?" |
30452 | He paused a moment, then said:"Do you want to live?" |
30452 | He said abruptly,"What is this cripple''s name, Mistress Mary?" |
30452 | He shook his head, trying to comprehend, then muttered hazily:"You-- you''re-- Quade?" |
30452 | Hear them now?" |
30452 | How about giving us some short short stories? |
30452 | How did it happen?" |
30452 | How he vanished, with the police guarding every exit to that house-- well, it''s obvious, is n''t it? |
30452 | I ca n''t very well leave her here all unprotected, can I?" |
30452 | I called,"Can you hear us? |
30452 | I said,"Did you have any enemy? |
30452 | If you have not, why do you not tell us where Miss Crawford is?" |
30452 | Is it locked on the inside?" |
30452 | Is it my imagination or have you been using a better grade of paper in the past two issues? |
30452 | Is she familiar?" |
30452 | Is that clear?" |
30452 | Its ascent was so labored that Phil shouted to Professor Guinness:"Why so slow?" |
30452 | Killed? |
30452 | Kincaide?" |
30452 | Kincaide?" |
30452 | Kincaide?" |
30452 | Larry began,"But can you get to the other cage?" |
30452 | Larry demanded,"Are you alone in there?" |
30452 | Larry was saying,"Wish we would get a storm to clear this air--_what the devil?_ George, did you hear that?" |
30452 | Larry was saying,"Wish we would get a storm to clear this air--_what the devil?_ George, did you hear that?" |
30452 | Look around; see what''s happened?" |
30452 | Mistress Mary, did this Tugh in your Time ever consult doctors, trying to have his crippled body made whole?" |
30452 | Mistress Mary, had you never seen this cage before?" |
30452 | Mr. Hendricks will stand the eight to twelve watch as usual?" |
30452 | Now, why not reprint some of them and give us a chance to read them? |
30452 | Or go peaceably along with them-- assuming we are n''t killed at once-- on the chance that we can make a break later?" |
30452 | Perhaps you remember the shot that sounded from the water- hole? |
30452 | Ready?" |
30452 | Sail in and die fighting? |
30452 | See?" |
30452 | Several of the men were moving about, dazedly, and as I signalled to them, reassuringly, a voice hailed us from the doorway:"Any orders, sir?" |
30452 | Shall we chance it? |
30452 | Shall we see?" |
30452 | Shall we stop, Tina?" |
30452 | Shall we try it, sir?" |
30452 | She cried out in terror,"Will they add to our misery?" |
30452 | She finally exclaimed:"But-- but then Phil''s alive?" |
30452 | She murmured,"Is this New York?" |
30452 | Simple, eh?... |
30452 | Suppose there were no atmosphere surrounding Zeud to cushion their descent into the hundred- mile crater that yawned to receive them? |
30452 | Suppose we take matter and by applying electrical force to it change its wave- length, step it up to the wave- length of radio vibrations? |
30452 | Take Mistress Mary Atwood to Police Headquarters and inform them that she has come from the year 1777? |
30452 | That''s a long way from the Beginning, is n''t it? |
30452 | The minute?" |
30452 | Those others, which brought to the City of New York such amazing disaster? |
30452 | Try it? |
30452 | Was anything like that known to your Time?" |
30452 | Was it many hours?" |
30452 | Was it minutes or hours, Randall wondered afterward, of that horrible progress downward, that passed before they glimpsed light beneath? |
30452 | Was it obvious that the effects of the numbing poison was wearing off? |
30452 | Was the girl from out of the past giving us a warning of coming disaster to this great city? |
30452 | Was there no release? |
30452 | Were they on some invisible eminence, above the reach of these queer creatures? |
30452 | Wesso is great, so why not have all the illustrations by him? |
30452 | What are they, in God''s name? |
30452 | What do you mean by it?" |
30452 | What do you mean?" |
30452 | What happened? |
30452 | What is it?" |
30452 | What is it?" |
30452 | What made it break? |
30452 | What was it like?" |
30452 | What''ll we do then? |
30452 | What''s that?" |
30452 | What''s that?" |
30452 | What''s the matter with you? |
30452 | When did Tugh vanish from your world?" |
30452 | When? |
30452 | Where am I? |
30452 | Where-- where did Quade go to?" |
30452 | Who are you?" |
30452 | Why change the size? |
30452 | Why not? |
30452 | Why not? |
30452 | Why?" |
30452 | Will you please leave me alone, now, so that I can continue?" |
30452 | Will you tell Felix to bring us some food, plenty of it?" |
30452 | With such versatile authors as Burks( When does his next story appear? |
30452 | Would they be bitten again-- or eaten? |
30452 | Would this go on through eternity? |
30452 | Yes? |
30452 | You have come, then, to learn of this world and to take back what you learn to your races?" |
30452 | You will, wo n''t you-- without making a fuss?" |
30452 | [?] |
29848 | Abandon ship-- open the sea- cocks-- sink it for the insurance? |
29848 | All right, Paula? |
29848 | And how-- how did you get down here? 29848 And it flew?" |
29848 | And these? |
29848 | And what do you do with it? |
29848 | Anita, what are you doing? |
29848 | Any at all about the place? |
29848 | Any more little pets about? |
29848 | Are all women fools? |
29848 | Are his motors smooth? 29848 Are we all imbeciles? |
29848 | Are you hurt? |
29848 | Are you hurt? |
29848 | Are-- will you go back there? |
29848 | Blood stains? |
29848 | Breakers, you said? |
29848 | But all those gadgets inside and on the bottom--? |
29848 | But now what? |
29848 | But the monsters? |
29848 | But whoever saw a cricket fifteen inches long? |
29848 | But why the moon? |
29848 | But--Johns had unconsciously dropped his voice to a whisper--"what of these strange creatures? |
29848 | But, Robert,began Ruth Allaire,"you do n''t mean to risk your life on a foolish bet?" |
29848 | But-- but did n''t it hurt you to carry it? |
29848 | But-- but what made those fish come up that way? |
29848 | Ca n''t help you, Snap? |
29848 | Can it see in the dark? |
29848 | Can you get the_ Nagasaki_? |
29848 | Can you run? |
29848 | Can you swim, Jerry? |
29848 | Chief? 29848 Commander, where shall I put these helmets?" |
29848 | Dead? |
29848 | Did n''t know I was all ready to leave, did you? 29848 Did they go aboard another vessel?" |
29848 | Did-- did you see them? |
29848 | Do I need to tell you of the constant, ceaseless and tremendous explosion that follows? 29848 Do you see that test tube?" |
29848 | Does-- does that smoke of yours drive them away? |
29848 | Friends? 29848 Frightened, Paula?" |
29848 | Funny water, ai n''t it? |
29848 | Goodwin? 29848 Gregg--?" |
29848 | Have any trouble or excitement? 29848 Hear that?" |
29848 | Hey, Juan, what the hell''s the matter? 29848 How about it?" |
29848 | How did you ever get it here? |
29848 | How is it, Snap? |
29848 | How much of a bet? |
29848 | Hurt? |
29848 | I-- you mean somewhat like a violet ray is increased in the lightning tubes? |
29848 | If a man touched that radium,he asked,"what would happen to him?" |
29848 | If you go and I go back there, what will happen? 29848 In the dark?" |
29848 | Is that you, Thorpe? 29848 Is this radium worth as much as silver?" |
29848 | Jerry-- where are you, Jerry? |
29848 | Let''s see.... We have n''t a thing to eat, have we? |
29848 | Made it, did you? |
29848 | Must we land there? |
29848 | No other move from them yet, Johnny? |
29848 | No? |
29848 | Now, Gregg-- can you fling it from here? |
29848 | Now, when we are just at the point of success in our great experiments? 29848 Oh, Gregg, have n''t we broken the ship''s dome yet?" |
29848 | Only that one shot, Gregg? |
29848 | Paula? |
29848 | Pretty, is n''t it? |
29848 | Quien sabe? |
29848 | Say,blurted Durkin, his face working nervously,"how the hell did that frog get so big? |
29848 | See? |
29848 | So you came to rob us, eh? |
29848 | Still,said Jerry, gropingly,"what has all that to do with the moon? |
29848 | Take me where? |
29848 | Take them where? |
29848 | That is this-- see? |
29848 | That radium stuff is what makes the funny light in that mine, then? |
29848 | The jungle is a charming place, is n''t it? |
29848 | The key-- to the stone bank? |
29848 | The_ Adelaide_? |
29848 | Then why leave? |
29848 | Then why tie me up like this? |
29848 | This stuff has got to you, has it? |
29848 | Turn back now? 29848 Was your father on board, Ruth?" |
29848 | Well,asked Jerry, at length,"what''s the big idea?" |
29848 | Well? |
29848 | What charity would you like to name, Miss Allaire? 29848 What for?" |
29848 | What for? |
29848 | What is it? |
29848 | What is it? |
29848 | What is it? |
29848 | What is the matter? |
29848 | What kind of a laboratory do you call this? |
29848 | What kind of a rotten mess is this? |
29848 | What made you head in this direction, and where''s your outfit? |
29848 | What now? |
29848 | What say,said Bell suddenly,"we get aloft now? |
29848 | What will become of her? |
29848 | What will you bet that I do n''t sail alone from here to-- where are you stationed?--San Diego?--from here to San Diego? |
29848 | What''s that thing? |
29848 | What''s that? |
29848 | What''s the difference? 29848 What''s the trouble?" |
29848 | What? |
29848 | Where am I... where am I? |
29848 | Where are we, Robert? 29848 Where does it go?" |
29848 | Where is the yacht? |
29848 | Where was this? |
29848 | Who sent you? |
29848 | Who sent you? |
29848 | Why should we leave now? |
29848 | Why? |
29848 | Why? |
29848 | Will you keep me with you, then? |
29848 | Winslow,he said,"have you any rope handy?" |
29848 | Wo n''t you say good- by, Marahna? |
29848 | Yeh? 29848 You do n''t know?" |
29848 | You found this in the captain''s cabin? |
29848 | You hear that whistle? 29848 You mean the German loosened up that much?" |
29848 | You mean these Things you have called Petrolia actually work for you? 29848 You really do n''t?" |
29848 | You will do nothing about it? |
29848 | ***** Was he injured? |
29848 | *****"But why-- why?" |
29848 | *****"Then why in the name of hell do you want it?" |
29848 | A snake bite you?" |
29848 | A waiting lurking horror in the depths? |
29848 | All clear, Paula? |
29848 | All right:"Remember how you laughed when I told you that oil would some day be mined instead of pumped or flowed from the earth? |
29848 | And Winslow? |
29848 | And as for letting me die-- why did n''t you? |
29848 | And from what? |
29848 | And it would not be ours.... You saw our lights fade down while the bolt was striking?" |
29848 | And now that it is written I am tempted to destroy-- No, I will wait--""And now what is this?" |
29848 | And of what use to go out and be defeated, leaving the girls here to meet death almost immediately afterward? |
29848 | And she had let him-- them-- go...."Oh, well,"he thought,"how can I know how a princess feels-- a princess of the moon? |
29848 | And that you saved them from becoming extinct?" |
29848 | And the_ Adelaide_--where is it?" |
29848 | And what is beyond? |
29848 | And why should I care-- why should she? |
29848 | And you can steal food and cache it for use on the way, see? |
29848 | And"--he took a nervous turn around the laboratory--"if such a wild thing were possible, what has that to do with our trouble? |
29848 | And, for that matter, how can we know there is no such monster, some relic of a Mesozoic species supposed to be extinct?" |
29848 | And, knowing what you do, having seen what you have, could you call it impossible?" |
29848 | Are we safe?" |
29848 | Are you game to go up, Paula?" |
29848 | Are you planning on any reprints? |
29848 | Bolts.... How many hours have we?" |
29848 | But did you know that my mother came from Maryland?" |
29848 | But eight thousand feet is a lot of silt, Johns: ever thought of that?" |
29848 | But how can we get through them?" |
29848 | But let them realize that the thread can be broken, and what their slaves would do to them before they all went mad.... You see? |
29848 | But now--""Yes,"the other questioned,"now?" |
29848 | But what have they struck out there? |
29848 | But, supposing there is such a race of things-- what will you do?" |
29848 | But, tell me, who are you? |
29848 | CHAPTER XXXVIII_ Triumph!_"Is he conscious? |
29848 | Ca n''t we repair it, Johnny?" |
29848 | Ca n''t you feel it?" |
29848 | Can we do other than remain silent?" |
29848 | Commander-- shall I stop them? |
29848 | Could he save her if he found her? |
29848 | Dead? |
29848 | Did they lead to the outer world? |
29848 | Die? |
29848 | Do n''t you see it''s our only hope?" |
29848 | Dreaming? |
29848 | Gregg, is she dead?" |
29848 | Had Winslow gained the top? |
29848 | Had it been only five minutes? |
29848 | Had the crack in our front wall broken, threatening explosion of all the buildings? |
29848 | Had this ape escaped and menaced the officers and crew? |
29848 | Had this been the terror that drove the men into the sea? |
29848 | Had we broken the ship''s dome with a direct hit? |
29848 | Have you ever met Lee Wong, the great Chinese scientist, or his Russian geological collaborator, Krenski? |
29848 | Have you?" |
29848 | He held the trembling figure close as the girl whispered:"Where are we, Robert? |
29848 | He kept voicing aloud the question in his mind; what was in the queer tube? |
29848 | He spelled her name, over and over.... Would the sleepy operator never answer? |
29848 | He''s blind, ai n''t he? |
29848 | Here in the deep caverns, far from the surface, was fire a thing of terror to them? |
29848 | How about you?" |
29848 | How big is this lake, I wonder?" |
29848 | How can we live? |
29848 | How could there be water or anything fluid on this side? |
29848 | How many thousands of slaves do you suppose The Master has by now?" |
29848 | How many? |
29848 | How would you deal with them? |
29848 | I shall look forward to reading it... but just what are you going to do?" |
29848 | I told you, Brent, there was often a factual basis for fables-- remember? |
29848 | I was thinking-- maybe you would kiss me, Gregg--?" |
29848 | I was... where was I when you collared me? |
29848 | I wonder if he has directional for a guide? |
29848 | In one of the rooms of the house, behind strong bars, a man was kept who had been an object- lesson...."Is there any machinery?" |
29848 | In the confusion of my whirling impressions I wondered if Miko were in distress? |
29848 | Is n''t that so, Durkin?" |
29848 | Is that the way you receive your guests from another world?" |
29848 | It it wonderful, is it not? |
29848 | It''s absolutely amazing, is n''t it?" |
29848 | Jerry Foster took a minute to grasp that statement, then continued:"Granting that, why go to the moon? |
29848 | Marahna? |
29848 | My God, Thorpe, what is it? |
29848 | No? |
29848 | Now-- where are we still to find friends?" |
29848 | Of what use for our platform to rush back? |
29848 | Of what use to warn Miko?" |
29848 | Only that? |
29848 | Only these? |
29848 | Or, instead, was it not probable that they went to some deep, subterranean dens, from which this monster had learned to come at the priests''summons? |
29848 | Ready with your parachute?" |
29848 | Say, Juan, who was that big Portuguee with Professor Gurlone? |
29848 | Shall we try it?" |
29848 | Shall you land there?" |
29848 | She asked,"Are you speaking for yourself or the commander?" |
29848 | Should they chance the shelter of the jungle growth? |
29848 | Six? |
29848 | Spawned neither of God nor Satan-- what could they be? |
29848 | Still all clear before us, Paula? |
29848 | That pistol of Ribiera''s-- you have it handy? |
29848 | The Stillwater crowd? |
29848 | The old guy''s going back to- morrow, get me?" |
29848 | The priest''s robe? |
29848 | Understand? |
29848 | Was Miko making a zed- ray photograph of our interiors? |
29848 | Was fire unknown to these strange beings? |
29848 | Was he dreaming? |
29848 | Was he equal to the climb? |
29848 | Was he in time? |
29848 | Was our rescue ship from Earth coming? |
29848 | Was she dodging those breakers? |
29848 | Was the scent of the hidden, shuddering men in its red nostrils? |
29848 | Was there something really there?... |
29848 | Was this all a dream-- a mad nightmare from which he could force himself to wake? |
29848 | We''re O. K., ai n''t we?" |
29848 | Well, that means something, do n''t it?" |
29848 | Well, what if I die now... or six months from now? |
29848 | What are your readings?" |
29848 | What can it be? |
29848 | What could he do? |
29848 | What do you make of this?" |
29848 | What do you think you''re doing? |
29848 | What do you want of it?" |
29848 | What is up?" |
29848 | What mysteries awaited them? |
29848 | What sort of creatures would they be, that could live two miles beneath the surface of the earth? |
29848 | What was below? |
29848 | What was the meaning of that roaring blast?" |
29848 | What were these creatures like? |
29848 | What were they? |
29848 | What would the light disclose? |
29848 | What''s the matter?" |
29848 | Where are we going?" |
29848 | Where are you stationed?" |
29848 | Where can we live? |
29848 | Where was I headed?" |
29848 | Where was he? |
29848 | Who are you?" |
29848 | Who knows what life is there? |
29848 | Who was it?" |
29848 | Why could n''t that same pressure cool great caverns below the granite cap below the oil sands? |
29848 | Why do n''t you try for some more of the works of the other well- known authors in this line of fiction? |
29848 | Why not keep it that way? |
29848 | Why not print some( not too many) stories from H. G. Wells, E. R. Burroughs and Jules Verne? |
29848 | Why worry about a peon?" |
29848 | Why? |
29848 | Would he ever see her again... would he? |
29848 | You have n''t led me on to spend a million dollars drilling a thirty- six- inch hole, just so you could test a fantastic theory?" |
29848 | You have smashed the radio in the house?" |
29848 | You know how to work it? |
29848 | You understand?" |
29848 | You''re coming, too?" |
29848 | Young man, are you_ the_ Robert Thorpe?" |
29848 | he gasped hoarsely,"am I stark mad?" |
29848 | was the response,"ca n''t you see? |
29848 | what-- will-- it-- be...?" |
30177 | A building? |
30177 | A coil? |
30177 | All right now? |
30177 | All right? |
30177 | And do you think they are of gold? |
30177 | And is there nothing, sir, that we can do? |
30177 | And now, Professor, I wonder if you''d be willing to say a few words about this craft of yours? |
30177 | And the machine? |
30177 | And then what? 30177 And then?" |
30177 | And what is this below--? 30177 Antillia?" |
30177 | Are you safe? |
30177 | Attacking? |
30177 | Blair, do you feel it too, that eery feeling of countless eyes still watching us from Xoran? |
30177 | But I thought,he insisted nevertheless,"that you said you were going to explore the ocean floor under the Sargasso Sea?" |
30177 | But ca n''t you let me stay, now that I''m here? |
30177 | But could n''t we drop down and make sure which ship it is? |
30177 | But if you could help, would you be willing? 30177 But it_ is_ your name, is it not?" |
30177 | But our language? |
30177 | But surely you do n''t think anyone can molest us down here? |
30177 | But the big catapult--"Can you not see that the big catapult is broken? |
30177 | But what do you suppose they want with us? |
30177 | But what happened, my dear? |
30177 | But why were n''t we taken to him too? |
30177 | But why were they so eager to abandon the_ Nereid_? |
30177 | But you''ll get it all back, wo n''t you? 30177 But your age,"asked Sykes,"measured in years?" |
30177 | But, in God''s name, sir,burst forth Croy, his eyes blazing,"by what means do they, propose to inforce their infamous demands?" |
30177 | Can we use that on their fleets? |
30177 | Can you not realize that I am utterly invincible in any combat with you? 30177 Can you think of any good reason why I should n''t go, when girls are flying around the world and everything else?" |
30177 | Can you wait that long? |
30177 | Can you wait that long? |
30177 | Cause? |
30177 | Crazy, am I, Chief? 30177 Dead?... |
30177 | Dictaphone? 30177 Did Von Holtz give you that metal?" |
30177 | Did the world ever give anything to me? 30177 Did you make some wire for springs?" |
30177 | Did you not see that trespassers are forbidden? 30177 Did you not see the sign upon the gate?" |
30177 | Do I get a free hand? |
30177 | Do I look like a historian? |
30177 | Do you believe-- really-- he can strike him down-- at his desk-- from a distance? |
30177 | Do you expect to win all the time? 30177 Do you realize what that means? |
30177 | Do you see, Herr Reames, the position it puts me in? 30177 Does he know it means death?" |
30177 | Does he know-- about this? |
30177 | For witnesses? |
30177 | Four days? |
30177 | Has anyone a better? |
30177 | Have you his clothing where I can examine it? |
30177 | Have you not searched for the means to control the life principle-- you people of Earth? |
30177 | Have your countries not reached out for other countries when land was needed? |
30177 | He is marooned, Herr Reames, and you alone--"Marooned? |
30177 | How about that electronic projector on the submarine? |
30177 | How can you talk to him? |
30177 | How did you do it? |
30177 | How do they fire it? |
30177 | How do they propose to do this thing sir? 30177 How does Mr. Croy plan to frighten these people of the darkness?" |
30177 | How does this thing work? |
30177 | How is it that you can speak our tongue? |
30177 | How long did Denham use this thing to look through, before he built his globe? |
30177 | How long? |
30177 | How the deuce do they know when it is dawn, down here? |
30177 | In the middle of New York State? 30177 Is it a bet?" |
30177 | Is the President at his desk at twelve? |
30177 | Jacaro? |
30177 | Jetta of the Lowlands? |
30177 | May I come in, daddy? |
30177 | May I introduce myself? |
30177 | More killings? |
30177 | Mr. Croy,I said swiftly,"do you realize that you are speaking to your commanding officer?" |
30177 | Oh, why do n''t they kill him? |
30177 | Or shall I take Miss Keith with me by force? |
30177 | Or shall you do what? |
30177 | Perhaps--Then he paused-- for how could he say that perhaps the situation was n''t as bad as it seemed, when it was obviously hopeless? |
30177 | Reames? 30177 Remember how it melted out the heart of that big ship? |
30177 | So that is the way you reward us for giving you an exclusive story, is it? |
30177 | Some more of them damn electrons,he hazarded; then demanded of his caller:"But am I one hell of a smart guy? |
30177 | That sky-- the stars-- they are not real? |
30177 | The officials deny it, but what other answer is there? 30177 The pleasant young fellow?" |
30177 | The thing, whatever it is, has been going on for four days? |
30177 | The-- Ragged Men? |
30177 | The-- what? |
30177 | Then have you not enough gold already? |
30177 | Then we are below ground? |
30177 | Then you really expect to find the lost continent of Atlantis, Professor? |
30177 | Then-- then my captain and crew are safe? |
30177 | They are still all right? |
30177 | Those circles, that square: what would you judge they were, Professor? |
30177 | To whom, might I ask, do we owe our lives, and the honor of this interview? |
30177 | Underworld? |
30177 | Want me to take it on? |
30177 | Was he--the operative hesitated for a moment--"pretty well fried?" |
30177 | Was it a land station or a ship at sea? |
30177 | Was the door locked? |
30177 | We really ought to let Mr. Hunter come with us, daddy, do n''t you think? |
30177 | We''ll gamble on it, Del,he said;"we''ve got to-- there is no other way.... And now what do you want?" |
30177 | Well, how can we stop them? |
30177 | Well, in the first place, what does the name_ Nereid_ mean? |
30177 | Well? |
30177 | What about the earth? 30177 What are you talking about? |
30177 | What did he say? |
30177 | What did the priest say, daddy? |
30177 | What do you mean? |
30177 | What do you suppose they want with us, anyway, daddy? |
30177 | What does he say, Althora? |
30177 | What does he say? |
30177 | What does it mean? 30177 What has happened, Herr Reames?" |
30177 | What is it? |
30177 | What is it? |
30177 | What would you make of that, Del? |
30177 | What you goin''to do? |
30177 | What''s happening? |
30177 | What''s the matter with him? |
30177 | What-- what''s that? |
30177 | What? |
30177 | When do we start? |
30177 | Where are the clouds? |
30177 | Where is he? |
30177 | Who are you? |
30177 | Why do n''t they kill him? |
30177 | Why do n''t we stop and look her over? 30177 Why have you not been back?" |
30177 | Why were they in such a hurry to be off? |
30177 | Why, how could he have got down here? |
30177 | Why,he asked instead,"do you not use your own submarine for the purpose?" |
30177 | Why? |
30177 | Why? |
30177 | Why? |
30177 | Will you let her go peaceably, or shall I--? |
30177 | Without a mark? |
30177 | Wonder what I''d do,said Tommy Reames,"if another car came along from the other end?" |
30177 | Yeah? |
30177 | Yes, sir? |
30177 | Yes,said Lieutenant McGuire quietly,"for us--?" |
30177 | You have studied some physical science, of course? |
30177 | You have the catapult remade? |
30177 | You hit that gate a lick, did n''t you? |
30177 | You live here? |
30177 | You make this? |
30177 | You mean nitro- glycerine? 30177 You mean the flyer?" |
30177 | You were the man who introduced machine- guns into gang warfare, were n''t you? 30177 You will impersonate him-- yes-- but what then? |
30177 | You_ know_? 30177 ***** What was it? 30177 *****Is that possible, sir?" |
30177 | *****"The city ahead is not the one we are seeking, sir?" |
30177 | *****"Would it be possible to frighten them?" |
30177 | A defective trolley? |
30177 | A street- car? |
30177 | A-- a freighter, is n''t it?" |
30177 | Also, how about refraction? |
30177 | Am I offering so little, Tommy?" |
30177 | And I alone can help him? |
30177 | And all the time, Larry had an uneasy feeling of gathering furtive hosts about them, waiting-- waiting for what? |
30177 | And he repeated,"What does it mean?" |
30177 | And how could these new friends meet it? |
30177 | And if I failed my own folk what right would I have to you?" |
30177 | And me, Tommy.... Would you throw your life away in a hopeless attempt, when life might hold so much? |
30177 | And what do those who love you say?" |
30177 | And what is there in that stuff to get Denham in trouble?" |
30177 | And what would be the result of that audience? |
30177 | And what would they do with this? |
30177 | And why do you call it a torpedo- submarine? |
30177 | And, if we fail to make the fight, what heaven worth having is left? |
30177 | Appropriate, do n''t you think?" |
30177 | Are n''t there all sorts of Spanish galleons and pirate barques laden with gold supposed to be down there?" |
30177 | Are you convinced that I did not lie to you? |
30177 | Are you convinced that the Herr Professor Denham is in need of help?" |
30177 | Are you seriously hinting at long- distance vision through solid armor- plate-- through these walls of stone and steel? |
30177 | But did you make some springs?" |
30177 | But first there are one or two little things you would like explained-- yes? |
30177 | But this devil will get him the instant he leaves... unless... unless....""Yes-- yes?" |
30177 | But was it a room? |
30177 | But what is the power? |
30177 | But where was the populace, amid all this prodigious wealth? |
30177 | But-- what does it mean? |
30177 | Ca n''t you see that I am right, sir?" |
30177 | Can it be done? |
30177 | Can you do it?" |
30177 | Compray?" |
30177 | Could he-- or we-- wish more?" |
30177 | Did it mean an attack? |
30177 | Did it work?" |
30177 | Did the tall man speak? |
30177 | Did you hear that?" |
30177 | Did you notice how careful he was to shield his other hand with a glove before he turned the tool on? |
30177 | Do I get the Mint?" |
30177 | Do you approve, sir?" |
30177 | Do you understand me?" |
30177 | For the love of Pete, if people want scientific treatises, why do n''t they buy books and magazines dealing with the subject? |
30177 | Had he seized his opportunity and led the crew to mutiny, in the hope of converting the expedition into a treasure hunt? |
30177 | Has anything else turned up? |
30177 | Have you any more requests or suggestions?" |
30177 | He had watched Evelyn, and he loved her--"H- how do you do?" |
30177 | He went back to the torch and observed placidly:"The Professor ai n''t around, is he?" |
30177 | His generator must be insulated: would he touch it with his hand, now that his own current was off?--make of himself a conductor? |
30177 | How about a job helping?" |
30177 | How about the rest of the bet? |
30177 | How could he reach him? |
30177 | How could they invent them?" |
30177 | How do you drive it? |
30177 | How does it differ from the common or navy variety?" |
30177 | How does that let you out?" |
30177 | How far away are they?" |
30177 | How far could the Eye of Allah see? |
30177 | How far did the invisible arm reach? |
30177 | How long do you make it to Oreo?" |
30177 | How much is Jacaro going to pay you for the secret of the catapult, Von Holtz?" |
30177 | How''d it work?" |
30177 | How, may I ask, do meteors penetrate through that imaginary substance which is too much for a powerful space flyer? |
30177 | I wonder if they have forgotten him? |
30177 | I--""You are a historian?" |
30177 | Is he armed?" |
30177 | Is he goin''to boss the job?" |
30177 | Is it a joke?" |
30177 | Is n''t that a building of some kind?" |
30177 | Is n''t that it?" |
30177 | Is that as you would wish it, gentlemen?" |
30177 | Is that not so?" |
30177 | Is that not true?" |
30177 | Is the President of the United States to be a fugitive? |
30177 | It was bizarre, of course, but does n''t a drowning person catch at straws? |
30177 | Jacaro''s men come and talk to you at night, do n''t they?" |
30177 | More hurried scribbling, then:"But, say-- why do n''t you go direct to Atlantis and get the real dope?" |
30177 | Now, how about taking me up a mile or so in the air?" |
30177 | Or am I?" |
30177 | Or else--""What?" |
30177 | Perhaps"--and Bori Tulber smiled faintly and terribly--"you would like to have that message direct from its bearer?" |
30177 | Really?" |
30177 | Scoop? |
30177 | So he pulled out a cigarette case and lighted a cigarette and said sardonically:"The fifth dimension? |
30177 | Some employee of the Department listening in?" |
30177 | TNT?" |
30177 | That big thing with the solenoid-- the coil?" |
30177 | That is, why should n''t there be a Quarterly? |
30177 | That right?" |
30177 | The Herr Reames?" |
30177 | The zipping flash of a contact made and broken? |
30177 | Then he said:"Well? |
30177 | Then how about their ships? |
30177 | Then, where had this person stood-- this being who called himself the Eye of Allah? |
30177 | Tired? |
30177 | Tommy said eagerly:"Say, which of those things did you help him build? |
30177 | Tried these for fingerprints I suppose?". |
30177 | Unconsciously he voiced his thoughts:"Does the President have nails in his shoes, I wonder?" |
30177 | Von Holtz? |
30177 | Was that the reason he had been so willing to remain behind? |
30177 | Was the professor wrong? |
30177 | Was there anyone in the room-- did you enter it with him last night, Del?" |
30177 | Was there no life down here? |
30177 | Was there no way out? |
30177 | We have our bombs and our rays, it is true, but what is the power of this one ship against the people of half a world? |
30177 | Were they being led to their doom, after all? |
30177 | What are you doing? |
30177 | What did it bring to mind? |
30177 | What do you want this secret for?" |
30177 | What had happened to Captain Petersen and his crew? |
30177 | What has happened?" |
30177 | What if I am?" |
30177 | What if anything went wrong with their pressure- suits-- or if they should become lost? |
30177 | What is the joke, anyhow?" |
30177 | What is the use of having various publications if they must all be conducted along identical lines? |
30177 | What strange sub- sea enemy had overcome them? |
30177 | What throws it out through space?" |
30177 | What was now their fate? |
30177 | What was this strange sense of tension, of foreboding, that hung in the air? |
30177 | What was to be done? |
30177 | What would you care to have me say?" |
30177 | What would you suggest, sir?" |
30177 | What''s the matter? |
30177 | What''s your price?" |
30177 | When are you planning to leave, Professor?" |
30177 | Where had he slipped? |
30177 | Where was the generator-- the origin of this wireless power; along what channel did it flow? |
30177 | Where''s th''thing Jacaro wants?" |
30177 | Who is that girl?" |
30177 | Why do you permit--?" |
30177 | Why not adopt a tolerant attitude, and instead of howling about petty faults and mistakes get a good laugh over them? |
30177 | Why not this one? |
30177 | Why pick on the fifth?" |
30177 | Why should we, when we have so much fine land upon which the sun shines bright and fair always, save for the two brief seasons of rain? |
30177 | Why-- why, what are you doing here, young man?" |
30177 | Why? |
30177 | Will I not be accused of having put him out of the way?" |
30177 | Will it really cause them anguish on your Earth, Tommy?" |
30177 | Will they send another Opener of Gates to take up the work where Arlok failed?" |
30177 | Will you make the metal?" |
30177 | Will you phone for a repairman? |
30177 | Will you promise me now to receive what I am about to send, without interruption?" |
30177 | Winslow?" |
30177 | Would it but plunge them from the frying pan into the fire, wondered Larry, or would it mean their salvation? |
30177 | Would it?" |
30177 | Would they ever get back? |
30177 | Yes?" |
30177 | You do n''t mean to say the Mayas and Incas originated on that island of Antillia?" |
30177 | You have men on all the auxiliary television discs?" |
30177 | You have your menore?" |
30177 | You know how to combine the right angles?" |
30177 | You know how to work that metallic ammonium?" |
30177 | You will not go, for what can you do? |
30177 | You--"Tommy said irritably:"Are you Von Holtz? |
30177 | _ Are We All"Morons? |
30177 | and second,"How about refraction?" |
33662 | Air ye any kin ter Bill Benson? 33662 Anchor?" |
33662 | And now-- may I? |
33662 | And why not, you poor fool? |
33662 | Are all your children here? |
33662 | Are them fur me? |
33662 | Are these hers too? |
33662 | Are we safe? |
33662 | Are you a reporter? |
33662 | Are you connected with the Bigelows of Charleston? |
33662 | Are you ready, professor? |
33662 | Are you ready? |
33662 | Are you ready? |
33662 | Are-- were they to have paid you for your ascension? |
33662 | Are_ you-- He_? |
33662 | But how did you feel? 33662 But how do you manage, Mrs.--ah-- Scud?" |
33662 | But we never took boarders,with a stately drawing up of her head,"why should she send you here?" |
33662 | But your family? |
33662 | But your position? |
33662 | But, Miss Magnet, do you know what is the cause of Russell''s fate? 33662 By my faith, where are we?" |
33662 | By the way, how tall is your balloon, professor? 33662 Ca n''t we go down?" |
33662 | Ca n''t we stop, professor? 33662 Ca n''t_ you_ help them?" |
33662 | Can you catch? |
33662 | Can you state for the_ Planet_, Miss----? |
33662 | Can you talk now? |
33662 | Could n''t you take me? 33662 Did you know,"asked Miss Magnet, suddenly,"that a new land improvement company was started this spring for raising four crops a year? |
33662 | Did you note the symptoms? |
33662 | Did you wire them? |
33662 | Do n''t you know,he added in a whisper,"what I''ve done in your infernal place?" |
33662 | Do you know where a man called William Benson lives, whom I understand has a-- a farm here somewhere? |
33662 | Do you know who we are? |
33662 | Do you mean to say that the whole thing is due to e--? |
33662 | Do you mean,he turned to Mr. Ticks,"that this is all the effect of e----?" |
33662 | Do you wish to enter the United States navy? |
33662 | Does he always get up as early in the morning? |
33662 | Father,said Betty, softly,"why do n''t ye speak to me? |
33662 | Fly? |
33662 | For what? |
33662 | Have you a long ladder and grapnel? |
33662 | Have you a pair of glasses here? |
33662 | Have you any more with you? |
33662 | Have you lost your way, sir? |
33662 | Have you? 33662 How dare you ask me to drink this stuff?" |
33662 | How did she escape? |
33662 | How did you know? |
33662 | How do you know? |
33662 | How does all that electrical system work otherwise? |
33662 | How far do they live from here? |
33662 | How in---- can he bring her up with a haulin''-line an''git in from the rocks? |
33662 | How long have you been there? |
33662 | How long would it take you to get her ready? |
33662 | How on earth did you get off? |
33662 | How so? |
33662 | How the D-- epartment did you come here? |
33662 | How was all this power produced if coal was excluded? |
33662 | I hope you feel better now? |
33662 | I suppose it is in good condition? |
33662 | I? 33662 I?" |
33662 | Indeed? |
33662 | Is it lung trouble? |
33662 | Is there a new variety of atmospheric disturbance? 33662 Is this Cherokee Garden?" |
33662 | Just as a matter of formality, Mr. Secretary, will you tell us where you were between twelve and two o''clock this morning? |
33662 | Let me see; it is situated? |
33662 | May I ask your friend''s name? |
33662 | Miss Magnet, can you state at what exact hour the catastrophe occurred? |
33662 | Mr. Secretary,he said, turning to the head of the navy,"shall we accept the yacht? |
33662 | Not to- night surely? |
33662 | Now get in, will ye? |
33662 | Now, Inspector,continued the Secretary of State in his grandest manner,"will you kindly ask your question again?" |
33662 | Or New York? |
33662 | Or to Chicago? |
33662 | Randolph? |
33662 | Really? |
33662 | Say,punching Swift,"you ai n''t got a chaw about you, have you?" |
33662 | Scud energetic? 33662 Scud may get''em,"ventured an expert,"but what''ll he do with''em?" |
33662 | Shall we fly the Union Jack, then? |
33662 | Sir, do you recognize this card? |
33662 | So Scud woke you up? |
33662 | So? |
33662 | Well, Swift, what''s up now? |
33662 | Well, how do you like your room? 33662 Well, what then?" |
33662 | Well,said my cousin, looking nonplussed,"how would it do to make it over to the twins?" |
33662 | What do you propose? |
33662 | What do you say to spending the evening with me? 33662 What does this gol- darned thing mean, anyhow?" |
33662 | What does this mean, sir? 33662 What have you been doing in Paris, Randolph?" |
33662 | What is her name? |
33662 | What is it? |
33662 | What is the matter, then, if it is n''t wind? |
33662 | What is the speed of the fastest government boat? |
33662 | What speed does she register, Captain? |
33662 | What yer up ter, Scud? |
33662 | What? 33662 When did he die?" |
33662 | Where did you pick up that thing, Colonel? |
33662 | Where is He? 33662 Where is your balloon, professor?" |
33662 | Where now, father? |
33662 | Where now? |
33662 | Where the dickens are you going, then? |
33662 | Where? |
33662 | Whose vessel is this? 33662 Why do n''t they_ do_ something?" |
33662 | Why the---- did n''t he take his dory? |
33662 | Why unmarried? |
33662 | Why, man,blazed Harland Slack,"do n''t you know that I''ve murdered somebody? |
33662 | Why? 33662 Will you please tell us when you called there last?" |
33662 | You have n''t a nip of brandy, have you? 33662 You must pardon me if I ask you if you use these cards when calling upon the President?" |
33662 | You witnessed the destruction of Russell? 33662 You wo n''t look upon me as a sheriff, will you?" |
33662 | You would take a Christmas present from me, would n''t you? |
33662 | _ Was_ this his place? |
33662 | ''tain''t you, is it?" |
33662 | ***** Who does not love the Everglades when he knows them? |
33662 | --And yet?" |
33662 | A log? |
33662 | A raft? |
33662 | A squall on a day like this? |
33662 | A wreck? |
33662 | Ai n''t them showy? |
33662 | Air ye an''thin''to him?" |
33662 | And now, Swift,"--when Mr. Ticks had faded out of the room,--"who''s this correspondent signed D.?" |
33662 | And then--""And then?" |
33662 | And yet--"he added wistfully and thoughtfully,"and yet--""Well, if there was no tornado, what the deuce are we going to Empiria for?" |
33662 | Are we on the verge of a new electrical discovery? |
33662 | At what invincible vessel would the bolt be launched? |
33662 | Bigelow?" |
33662 | But Scud, a hero? |
33662 | But the professor, who had few delicate scruples, waved his hat and shouted:"What''s the matter with the_ High Tariff_? |
33662 | But what manner of man was this Doctor? |
33662 | But where is Scud? |
33662 | But where was Russell? |
33662 | But why had not the shock been felt? |
33662 | By some horrible law of metempsychosis had his old spirit passed into this too fashionable married flirt at his side? |
33662 | Can a man abuse his electrical valet? |
33662 | Can the navy find room for Colonel Odminton''s atonement?" |
33662 | Can this happen to Boston?" |
33662 | Could a man_ not_ care for her? |
33662 | Could an earthquake account for the deadly something that filled the air? |
33662 | Could he ever overtake the boat? |
33662 | Could it recover itself and mount? |
33662 | D''ye see those birds up there? |
33662 | Did he long to"up the anchor,"and give the signal to fly ahead? |
33662 | Did he regret freedom and lawlessness? |
33662 | Did he regret this last and most quixotic step? |
33662 | Did his sin at the last restrain him, that he dared not to touch the soil of America, and fondle it as his own? |
33662 | Did it not bear an undeniable stamp of genuineness upon its face, not only through the firmness of its tone, but by the audacity of the demand? |
33662 | Did n''t I land there before I struck Empiria? |
33662 | Disregarding this as a feeble attempt at apology, she asked,--"What is your name, sir? |
33662 | Do n''t ye see I''m goin''? |
33662 | Do you come from_ him_? |
33662 | Do you know that its cause is the despair of the world? |
33662 | Do you live in Boston now?" |
33662 | Do you suspect me in this infernal mystery?" |
33662 | For the first time the query arose: What had he to do with a questionable evening? |
33662 | Francis B. Ellesworth:_ DEAR FRANK,--What the deuce do you mean by countermanding Benson''s foreclosure at this time of day? |
33662 | From what quarter would the ominous signal be seen? |
33662 | Had I understood what I asked I should not have said:"Scud, wo n''t you go? |
33662 | Had Mr. Ticks the formula for inflating a canvas tent into a balloon? |
33662 | Had a fire swept the land? |
33662 | Had her rescuers arrived too late? |
33662 | Had she not been expecting the man who was to take away her home for a paltry sum of unpaid money? |
33662 | Had they not dragged a dozen adventurers back from the same mad enterprise? |
33662 | Hain''t ye nothing to say to me, Scud?" |
33662 | Have a cocktail?" |
33662 | Have n''t we struck another current?" |
33662 | Have you new information? |
33662 | He advanced a step or two, looked down at her from his tall height and ejaculated brutally:"_ You_ here?" |
33662 | He could not be apprehended; but supposing that he were not well received? |
33662 | He had not meant to abduct the first lady of the land, but what could he do with her? |
33662 | How could he get one in? |
33662 | How could he look at her? |
33662 | How could that grinning, singing Scud save a jelly- fish? |
33662 | How did she do it? |
33662 | How was it possible? |
33662 | How was this possible? |
33662 | How_ do_ you feel?" |
33662 | I have heard so much about Southern hospitality, would it be asking too much for me to rest here awhile? |
33662 | IS A DARK POLITICAL PLOT ABOUT TO BE UNEARTHED? |
33662 | If Benson''s farm were only eight miles away why did he not see him before he sent the command to foreclose? |
33662 | If so, which? |
33662 | If the mere sight of this curious elixir could clear the clots of alcohol from his blood and his will, what might come of a draught? |
33662 | In my ignorance of the curious stolidity which falls upon the shore in face of danger upon the sea, I stood shrieking:"Why does n''t somebody go? |
33662 | Is it a go?" |
33662 | Is it so bad? |
33662 | Is it you? |
33662 | Is there a portion of our national machinery out of gear? |
33662 | It is--?" |
33662 | It was December? |
33662 | Its industries are--?" |
33662 | Its population?" |
33662 | Its property--?" |
33662 | Its railroad facilities--?" |
33662 | Men met each other and asked only this question:"Have they been found?" |
33662 | Mr. Ticks pulled out a yellow, faded, silk bandanna, wiped his spectacles sadly, and with an over- aspirated tone asked:"Yes, sir?" |
33662 | No? |
33662 | Of what avail courts of law and prisons if such consummate daring goes unpunished? |
33662 | Of what was its nature? |
33662 | Or are you_ he_?" |
33662 | Or did it come from the fact that his authority seemed to be impaired? |
33662 | Or was his heart that was broken by disgrace, healed by the atonement? |
33662 | She managed to stammer out,--"What, sir, does this mean?" |
33662 | Sit down-- and you?" |
33662 | Supposing that one of these houses with a frontage of seventeen feet, has a depth of two hundred feet, and is five stories high? |
33662 | Swift caught sight of the travellers face, started back in amazement, and said:"Excuse me, sir: is this seat engaged?" |
33662 | That outstretched, mocking hand-- was it what the abstainers called the"demon of drink?" |
33662 | That will help you, see?" |
33662 | The chief read the message through once to himself, gave one glance at the face of his subordinate, and then said:"This is a repeat, is it not?" |
33662 | The children? |
33662 | The editor- in- chief looked somewhat nonplussed, and handed Mr. Ticks the telegram, with the remark:"What do you think of that?" |
33662 | The helpless children safe, and Scud gone? |
33662 | The men are murmuring; where can we renew our power? |
33662 | Then she shot this question at him with a scowl,"Ye hain''t no Northerner, air ye?" |
33662 | Then was born the thought, Why not make capital out of this resemblance which art could easily magnify? |
33662 | Then what? |
33662 | Then who? |
33662 | Thet Scud? |
33662 | This terrible, this unexpected, this deadly persecution-- how far did it extend? |
33662 | Ticks?" |
33662 | Ticks?" |
33662 | Was advanced civilization responsible for this disaster or not? |
33662 | Was he not the experienced representative of the greatest daily in America? |
33662 | Was it a chance indignation that had fomented in England, and had leaped the channel, or was it a decree of outlawry that was passed by all the world? |
33662 | Was it a dream? |
33662 | Was it due to his son''s speechless denunciation? |
33662 | Was it execration or was it joy-- this mighty sound that broke from river to shore? |
33662 | Was it moral that cash instead of justice should be given to these stupendous criminals? |
33662 | Was the woman an embodiment of all the past evil of his own soul? |
33662 | Was this apparition a final terror added to her awful experience, sent to crush out the last remnant of her buoyant life and magnificent courage? |
33662 | Was this deadly phenomenon a hitherto unknown property of the electrical fluid? |
33662 | Wha''che got this mornin''?" |
33662 | What are''little''uns''?" |
33662 | What baneful miasma envelops this broad area? |
33662 | What could be done? |
33662 | What could one do? |
33662 | What could there have been to fascinate, he mused, in that carafe of-- water? |
33662 | What did she do? |
33662 | What did that cloud contain? |
33662 | What did you hit Jim for, Sammy? |
33662 | What fastidious smoker does? |
33662 | What has occurred?" |
33662 | What her wine? |
33662 | What horrors did it hide? |
33662 | What is her cognomen?" |
33662 | What is it?" |
33662 | What is it?" |
33662 | What is the fate of the thousands within its borders? |
33662 | What manner of man was this American Doctor with his accursed Parisian education? |
33662 | What position might he not buy with his American gold? |
33662 | What shall I do?" |
33662 | What strange orgy was this? |
33662 | What thoughts went through the lad''s mind? |
33662 | What was a little matter of falling ten thousand feet or so? |
33662 | What was in it to kill? |
33662 | What was its origin? |
33662 | What was that implacable power? |
33662 | What was the nature of the calamity? |
33662 | What was the secret of its deadly influence? |
33662 | What was this house? |
33662 | What was this new sensation of repugnance? |
33662 | What was this terrible thing which he was asked to drink? |
33662 | What was this woman? |
33662 | What will you take?" |
33662 | What word could one say? |
33662 | What would the following week, and the next, and the winter bring forth? |
33662 | What''ll become of me? |
33662 | What''ll you drink?" |
33662 | What''ll you take? |
33662 | What''s that boat? |
33662 | What?" |
33662 | Whence came that indomitable judgment that baffled the elements at their own wildest sport? |
33662 | Whence came these muscles of steel that subdued such powers arrayed against lazy Scud? |
33662 | Where could he have lived and not have been an active partisan in the stirring days of our devastating civil war? |
33662 | Where do you belong?" |
33662 | Where was the smokestack? |
33662 | Where was the"busy hum of men"? |
33662 | Where was the_ Mary Jane_? |
33662 | Where were the masts? |
33662 | Where were they and their noble booty? |
33662 | Where were they? |
33662 | Where were they? |
33662 | Where''s Salt, pa? |
33662 | Where_ were_ they? |
33662 | Who are you?" |
33662 | Who could blame him? |
33662 | Who could help loving Scud, as one loves a huge, long- coated St. Bernard dog? |
33662 | Who could overtake her? |
33662 | Who could stop her? |
33662 | Who could tell the terrible truth? |
33662 | Who ever heard of a fisherman buying kindling? |
33662 | Who forgets the relief expeditions started in wagons and on foot from every point of the compass? |
33662 | Who had suspected this animated reference library of such enterprise? |
33662 | Who is a boarder that he should think to comprehend the pathetic ingenuity of their eventless lives? |
33662 | Who knew what eminent defaulter or renowned cracksman was fleeing the city in dark disguise? |
33662 | Who knew? |
33662 | Who knows but that it would be less expensive to change her into a glacier than to bombard her with hundred- ton guns? |
33662 | Who thought of him and the crazy_ Mary Jane_? |
33662 | Who were these in the van? |
33662 | Who will own the fastest ship in the world? |
33662 | Who would answer these? |
33662 | Who would catch the first glimpse of the boldest and most successful gang of malefactors that this country had ever produced? |
33662 | Who would dare complain? |
33662 | Who would have suspected the passing of a grand storm upon the hearts of either? |
33662 | Who''d''a''thought it? |
33662 | Why did she not sell the Ming vase? |
33662 | Why do n''t you men do_ something_?" |
33662 | Why had Ellesworth not known this before? |
33662 | Why was it that his acquisitive mind had not roamed over this field before? |
33662 | Why?" |
33662 | Will you give us a hundred thousand in gold? |
33662 | Will you please find out whether your coupé was in or not between twelve and two? |
33662 | Wo n''t it blow over?" |
33662 | Would Scud pass the reef or not? |
33662 | Would he have run for the drowning? |
33662 | Would n''t they have you?" |
33662 | Would the abductors be true to their portion of the contract? |
33662 | Would you take a glass of milk?" |
33662 | You have n''t been idiot enough to buck the tiger again, have you? |
33662 | You know me, Slack, do n''t you?" |
33662 | _ Kill!_ Kill a_ woman_? |
33662 | of this deadly atmosphere beneath us?" |
33662 | or would it lose courage and fall, dragging its passengers to a certain death? |
33662 | this is a real Ming, is it?" |
29768 | Ah, so fear exists on Earth, too? |
29768 | All right? |
29768 | And Madge? |
29768 | And is there no other way-- no scientific way? |
29768 | And now that we''re friends again, would you mind asking the steward to get me something to eat? 29768 And the principle?" |
29768 | And what''s that? |
29768 | And you and Hackett figured it out and came after me-- took that risk? 29768 And you say, Professor, that you have brought back samples of this invisibility device?" |
29768 | And you, Sarka-- did you hate her, too? |
29768 | And you,he said,"what is wrong with you?" |
29768 | Are you afraid, beloved? |
29768 | Are you aware that our chances of ever getting back to Earth are smaller than you ought to have dreamed of taking? |
29768 | Are you ready, gentlemen? |
29768 | Are you willing to help, to try to get to Fellows and your city? |
29768 | Because I said you did n''t want to meet the young senorita who loved you when she saw you downstairs? 29768 But have n''t you made any attempt to get out of here-- to escape?" |
29768 | But how, if she passes the people of the Gens of Dalis through the flames, will she retain her sovereignty? |
29768 | But how,said Sarka at last,"are we to be sure? |
29768 | But is n''t there any way around it? 29768 But where are they taking us? |
29768 | But-- Charles,she asked hopefully,"is-- is it really all right, now?" |
29768 | Can such things be possible? |
29768 | Can you find your way to him-- to your city? |
29768 | Can you get us each a ray- gun? 29768 Can you glimpse a bullet passing you?" |
29768 | Can you rescue us? |
29768 | D''yuh think I was born simple? |
29768 | Did he? 29768 Did you note carefully,"she said,"those aircars which were partially destroyed by our ray directors and atom- disintegrators?" |
29768 | Did you note that no men, formed like our own, no creatures of any sort whatever, fell from the cars? |
29768 | Disintegrated? |
29768 | Do n''t you know you''ll get wrinkles if you scowl like that? 29768 Do n''t you think it is time we tried this new experiment?" |
29768 | Do you know how to use them? |
29768 | Do you know what we''re up against? |
29768 | Do you realize the risk you''re running, young woman? |
29768 | Do you realize what this means, Kendrick? 29768 Do you think I''m as dumb as that, Nat Lee? |
29768 | Does The Master manage things so? |
29768 | Does it occur to you,he asked grimly,"that it''s too important a matter for us to have any scruples about? |
29768 | Eh? |
29768 | English? |
29768 | Erebos? |
29768 | Ever hear of''getting married?'' |
29768 | Fellows was rather a buddy of you two, was n''t he? |
29768 | From Earth? |
29768 | Get down? |
29768 | Going crazy already? |
29768 | Going down? |
29768 | Has n''t it dawned that you were a little too near our own field with that machine of yours? 29768 How about the cellar?" |
29768 | How deep do you suppose it is? |
29768 | How do the people themselves get off? |
29768 | How do we get out? 29768 How do we go? |
29768 | How do we know,Sarka almost whispered it,"that she is, originally, of the Moon? |
29768 | How do you mean? 29768 How far do you think we must drop?" |
29768 | How many times can they be fired without reloading? |
29768 | How would you like a long parachute drop back to Earth? |
29768 | I do not know, but... you mean... you mean...? |
29768 | I remember, son, and now?... |
29768 | I say, Jamison, did you know Paula and I were to be married? |
29768 | I wonder,said Bell slowly, and very grimly,"if that''s The Master?" |
29768 | I? |
29768 | If the Black Caesar dies will you take me back to Earth again? 29768 If-- if it''s really over,"said Paula hopefully,"Charles--""What?" |
29768 | It is rather odd, is n''t it? |
29768 | Know what it is? |
29768 | Leland is in solitary confinement? |
29768 | Look for it? |
29768 | My dear Professor, ca n''t you really guess? |
29768 | My dear man, is n''t that my business? |
29768 | No, I did n''t,he admitted;"but where on earth did they come from, and what are they doing here?" |
29768 | Norman-- how by all that''s holy did you get here? |
29768 | Not the daughter of Henderson Blake? |
29768 | On Eros? |
29768 | Or would you prefer a steak? |
29768 | Ready? |
29768 | Say, what yuh- all tryin''to hand me? |
29768 | See this? 29768 Spooky place, is n''t it?" |
29768 | Spying, eh? |
29768 | Suppose he should come here? |
29768 | Surely the proletariat has already triumphed on earth? |
29768 | That escalator ray-- do you know how they use it? |
29768 | That''s what? |
29768 | The Ralas-- you mean these frog- men? |
29768 | The edge of the satellite''s atmosphere? |
29768 | The matter? |
29768 | The-- who? |
29768 | Then Fellows is in your city now? |
29768 | Then how--? |
29768 | Then this shaft is over a half- mile deep, you think? |
29768 | Then what''s your theory, Brent? |
29768 | Then you''re, going to attack the Rala city now? |
29768 | Then you''ve thought of a way? |
29768 | Then you-- you think those round buttons are connected with the escalator rays? |
29768 | There''s no way in and what could be in there? 29768 This crystal sphere then, is capable of bringing to our eyes and ears the happenings of centuries past?" |
29768 | Uh? |
29768 | W- what is it? |
29768 | Want to scatter it and start it growing in a half- dozen places? |
29768 | We watch? |
29768 | Well, Brent? |
29768 | Well, what do you think now? |
29768 | Well, what do you want? |
29768 | Well, who are you? |
29768 | What are the round buttons for? |
29768 | What care I if I become a prisoner on the Moon, if you are with me? |
29768 | What did you think of that woman? |
29768 | What do you advise? |
29768 | What do you want, then? |
29768 | What does that mean? |
29768 | What hope? |
29768 | What is happening? |
29768 | What is it, Jaska? |
29768 | What is it, beloved? |
29768 | What is it? |
29768 | What is the use of this secret dome? |
29768 | What on earth do you suppose that is? |
29768 | What other theory can account for their disappearance? |
29768 | What possible hope? |
29768 | What the hell''s going on here? |
29768 | What''ll I do with this devil, Bell? |
29768 | What''s the matter? |
29768 | What''s the matter? |
29768 | What''s wrong, old- timer? |
29768 | What,he asked boldly, in the language of Earth,"does the traitor Dalis say?" |
29768 | What-- who is this? |
29768 | What? 29768 What? |
29768 | Where are you? |
29768 | Where do you wish to arrive? |
29768 | Where in time is that laboratory of Leland''s? |
29768 | Where is that? |
29768 | Where''d you get it? |
29768 | Where''s Axelson? |
29768 | Which buttons control the invisibility? |
29768 | Which door? |
29768 | Who could escape the city of the Ralas? 29768 Who''s loony now?" |
29768 | Why did n''t you wake me up? 29768 Why do n''t you break in the door?" |
29768 | Why do n''t you kill us, too? |
29768 | Why do you suppose it did n''t work? |
29768 | Why not call the police? |
29768 | Why not come? |
29768 | Why? 29768 Will she make it, father?" |
29768 | Wo n''t they have guards out? |
29768 | Wonder if they are humans? |
29768 | Yes, but where is he? |
29768 | Yes? |
29768 | You are men from Earth? |
29768 | You can manage without me, father? |
29768 | You do n''t want to go down there, do you? |
29768 | You do n''t? 29768 You know English-- you understand me?" |
29768 | You know your orders, Benson? 29768 You looked for a gun?" |
29768 | You mean that during the period of transposition you are invisible? |
29768 | You mean...? |
29768 | You think we are in friendly hands? |
29768 | You trust me now? |
29768 | You''re amused? |
29768 | You''re not going to be cross about it, are you? |
29768 | You-- will be able to think about me sometimes,asked Paula wistfully,"instead of about The Master always?" |
29768 | You-- you mean--? |
29768 | Your orders are clear? |
29768 | _ Did_ he know? |
29768 | _ Vdes son de Porvenir, no es verdad?_Jamison hiccoughed, as one who has been out and been drunken ought to do. |
29768 | ***** But could Sarka and Jaska turn their new- found knowledge to their own use? |
29768 | ***** But where was the enemy? |
29768 | *****"Where is your Kommandant?" |
29768 | *****"Why not? |
29768 | 1? |
29768 | And be engulfed? |
29768 | And do you imagine The Master does n''t know we''re here?" |
29768 | And now, may I ask, are you ready to return to your own land?" |
29768 | And then....""And then--?" |
29768 | And this woman clothed in radiance-- who was she? |
29768 | And we''ll not even be bent, let alone busted?" |
29768 | And what? |
29768 | And would the improvised broadcasting apparatus of the area stand the stupendous strain that would be placed upon it if the ray came down? |
29768 | Any more than that?" |
29768 | Are you afraid to attempt it? |
29768 | Are you going to kill them?" |
29768 | Are you ready?" |
29768 | But did you see her eyes? |
29768 | But since I am to die so shortly, why not go mad, if it gives me pleasure?" |
29768 | But since the cubes could forestall his transmission of thought, and perhaps could read and understand thoughts, how was he to tell Jaska? |
29768 | But the Gnomes, what of them? |
29768 | But was there some truth in the universal fear, after all? |
29768 | But what basis was there for such a fantastic hope? |
29768 | But what was it? |
29768 | But what was the meaning of this strange imprisonment? |
29768 | But where is Leland?" |
29768 | But would n''t it make him drop that too? |
29768 | But you''re likely to let go at any second, are n''t you?" |
29768 | Could n''t they be used in some way? |
29768 | Could the force- shells be fired under water? |
29768 | Could we ever find the plane again?" |
29768 | Dalis had known the secret sign manual of these two; but would the intelligence of the cubes comprehend it? |
29768 | Disintegrated and reintegrated? |
29768 | Do Earth men mind death? |
29768 | Do n''t know what a muskrat is, huh? |
29768 | Do n''t you see? |
29768 | Do you have the issues for 1928, too? |
29768 | Do you imagine that the plane was n''t seen when it came in the Cape? |
29768 | Do you know the difference between the brain of a man and that of an anthropoid ape? |
29768 | Do you think it possible that, with all his Gens, he may go over to the Moon- men, form an alliance with them?" |
29768 | Do you think the military authorities will be able to cope with it?" |
29768 | Does she not look too much like our people, to be from another world entirely?" |
29768 | Feeling fit?" |
29768 | Fool-- why had n''t he thought of it? |
29768 | For do you realize that, unless we do so, we will never again see home?" |
29768 | Got any plans, Bell?" |
29768 | Had he dreamed of the hammer blow of that forty- five caliber bullet? |
29768 | Had the people of the disc learned of their preparations to counter the attack? |
29768 | Had they been discovered? |
29768 | He knew our secret code, did he not? |
29768 | Hell, can damn frog- men keep us here? |
29768 | How could it be done? |
29768 | How does it feel?" |
29768 | How is he?" |
29768 | How many would be brave enough to take a gamble like that, on a fellow''s mere supposition? |
29768 | How much does that figure in dollars and cents, Frank?" |
29768 | How''re we going to get down?" |
29768 | I wonder if, reading my thoughts, they would obey?" |
29768 | I wonder what it is?" |
29768 | If so, what is the cost including charges? |
29768 | If the Gens of Dalis were voluntarily bathed in the lake of white flames, would they become as Luar? |
29768 | If you charge no more than$ 3.00 would you send them C. O. D.? |
29768 | In minutes, it seemed, he was demanding:"How much can we take? |
29768 | Is Axelson in the house?" |
29768 | Is Dalis arranging a treacherous truce with the Moon- men?" |
29768 | Is he such a terrible man, this Black Caesar?" |
29768 | Is it not 2017? |
29768 | Is she safe?" |
29768 | It looks like a massive column just lighter than everything around it, yet so little lighter that you have to watch closely to see it at all?" |
29768 | It''s a long gamble, but if we can get hold of some of The Master''s poison.... Do you see?" |
29768 | Jaska went on:"Note the gleaming thing on the ground, right below the aircar? |
29768 | May I ask that you be patient until then?" |
29768 | May I see your hands again?" |
29768 | May I send for a certain medicine which will dispose of those symptoms in a very short time?" |
29768 | Might I suggest that you bring him here, trust him in all details, and let him take my place wherever possible? |
29768 | No? |
29768 | Note that column of light, scarcely lighter than the light which surrounds it everywhere? |
29768 | Now that I think of it, Jaska, how did Dalis know our secret code of fingers?" |
29768 | Now then-- will it work?" |
29768 | Now, what do we do with you? |
29768 | Of little children, even, crouching, and crushing and rending the tender flesh of other little children? |
29768 | On a day like this? |
29768 | Or would it sear through their makeshift defense, plunging them and the whole great metropolis into oblivion? |
29768 | Ready, Sarja?" |
29768 | Should he throw himself tooth and nail on the monster? |
29768 | Still in Theros?" |
29768 | That Dalis was somehow able to communicate with the Moon- men in their own language, or through their own signals?" |
29768 | That good enough for you?" |
29768 | That we can-- and will-- make you talk?" |
29768 | The revolutions, the rebellions that have made men free, were they pretty things to watch? |
29768 | The way we came?" |
29768 | There was a girl in Stamford.... Tell me, is it true that this is the year 2044 and that the proletariat has not yet triumphed?" |
29768 | These were people of the Moon: but if these were Moon- men, what, or who, were those gleaming cubes? |
29768 | This is satisfactory, I presume?" |
29768 | To what dread rendezvous were they going? |
29768 | Very clever; but what is the reason for it all?" |
29768 | Want to take a drive out there with me?" |
29768 | Was he succeeding? |
29768 | Was he to be the Prometheus who stole fire from Olympus, the Samson who toppled down the temple? |
29768 | Was he to bring the world to ruin, as a result of his blind groping after this new giant of power? |
29768 | Was it complacence or suspicion that stirred the liquid in the cyst so smoothly? |
29768 | Was it laughing at him? |
29768 | Was it susceptible to flattery? |
29768 | Was the Gens of Dalis being burned alive? |
29768 | Was the sound a warning? |
29768 | Was there even any hope? |
29768 | Was this bluish light in the abyss the source of the light in the Cone? |
29768 | Were some of those invisible little creatures on their trail? |
29768 | Were they observatories of some ancient race, placed thus to pierce the mysteries of outer space? |
29768 | What did it mean? |
29768 | What do you say?" |
29768 | What had brought it? |
29768 | What is your answer to my offer?" |
29768 | What next?" |
29768 | What on earth could it be? |
29768 | What say you?" |
29768 | What should they do? |
29768 | What was it? |
29768 | What was its purpose? |
29768 | What was its source, what the composition of the column? |
29768 | What was the meaning of this? |
29768 | What were they? |
29768 | What works the harbor door?" |
29768 | What year is this? |
29768 | What? |
29768 | When did this remarkably original idea occur to you?" |
29768 | When do we eat?" |
29768 | Whence came the glow? |
29768 | Where are we, anyway?" |
29768 | Where are we? |
29768 | Where are you, anyway? |
29768 | Where had the cube gone? |
29768 | Where was it from? |
29768 | Where''s your nerve, man?" |
29768 | Where, Sarka wondered, were the people of the Gens of Dalis? |
29768 | Where, save for the few guards at the house of Luar, were the people of the Gens of Dalis? |
29768 | Whither were they leading them? |
29768 | Who indeed would believe him if he told the story? |
29768 | Who knows? |
29768 | Why not take the train?" |
29768 | Why, of all people on earth, had he alone been singled out for this disclosure? |
29768 | Why?" |
29768 | Will you and these men join me, or will you die as the Moon man died?" |
29768 | Will you be seated? |
29768 | Will you direct me?" |
29768 | Will you risk it, to get back to Earth?" |
29768 | With what? |
29768 | Wonder what it was that frightened him?" |
29768 | Would that stupendous ray be hurled back upon itself? |
29768 | Would the proud old Earth have to come to that? |
29768 | Would you care to see our plant?" |
29768 | Would you like, Senor, to think in after days of that pleasant city filled with men and women tearing each other like beasts? |
29768 | Would you prefer that I give him the task of subduing your nation?" |
29768 | You fellows have seen pistols?" |
29768 | You have hit upon a rather profound scientific principle, yes?" |
29768 | You mean to say we are to be shot to the surface through the intervening rock and earth? |
29768 | You never heard of wild beasts sleeping in beds like these, did you?" |
29768 | You say three others vanished as I did? |
29768 | You think it''s somebody playing a hoax on Earth? |
29768 | You think that wiping out of China was just an Earth- joke?" |
29768 | You understand? |
29768 | You would have become a billionaire, do n''t you see?" |
29768 | he sent mentally,"what does it mean?" |
29198 | A watchman killed in the night? 29198 About here, I should think.... Have you a drill? |
29198 | Allow them to land without resistance? 29198 And now,"he said dryly,"I suppose the Señor Francia will receive me?" |
29198 | And that dream? |
29198 | And that? |
29198 | And this plan of yours? |
29198 | And this secret of yours? |
29198 | And what does the government want of me now? |
29198 | And your honor? |
29198 | Are you afraid, Dalis? |
29198 | Are you sure you''ll get in, buddy? |
29198 | Astronomer? |
29198 | At what time do you estimate that the flight of the Earth in its orbit will be materially affected? |
29198 | Bluffing? |
29198 | Bond,he asked,"do you know Jim Carpenter?" |
29198 | But have you read of the loss of the NY-18? |
29198 | But how could that be? |
29198 | But is it? |
29198 | But supposing for a moment your mad scheme were possible, who should say whom, of all the earth''s people, should be saved, whom sacrificed? |
29198 | But where, then, was there any point in my giving to people the Secret of Life? |
29198 | But where,interrupted the sarcastic voice of Dalis,"are these new lands of which you speak? |
29198 | But why have they not landed and waged their war right here without warning, if that is what they now intend to do? |
29198 | But why,queried Sarka,"does she draw no nearer?" |
29198 | But, how about the acceleration? |
29198 | But, if we grant you the mastery, will you heed our advice if it is good? |
29198 | But,objected Hart,"the messages were in English, were they not?" |
29198 | Ca n''t you use the rocket tubes? |
29198 | Charles-- you-- you have been poisoned like the rest? |
29198 | Could it have been just imagination? 29198 Could the human body stand up under the strain?" |
29198 | Darling,he said,"are you badly hurt?" |
29198 | Do n''t you believe? |
29198 | Do n''t you remember me? 29198 Do n''t you remember, Pete, that the one which captured us and took us out of the hole was red while in the hole and then turned purple? |
29198 | Do n''t you see? |
29198 | Do we follow this man who promises us life again? 29198 Do you mean to tell me that we are more than sixteen miles in the air?" |
29198 | Do you not realize that within a matter of hours, some Gens must be sent into battle? 29198 Do you not wish now that you had gone out with your people as their leader?" |
29198 | Do you really believe this enemy comes from another planet? |
29198 | Do you really think...? |
29198 | Do you remember Professor Oradel? 29198 Does it not thrill you, O Dalis?" |
29198 | Great God, do you see father? |
29198 | Has the time arrived? |
29198 | Have we changed direction? |
29198 | Have you a radio beacon? |
29198 | Have you any idea of which direction to go? |
29198 | Have you noticed that? |
29198 | He is the youngest of the Spokesmen, and what better test is there for him than this? |
29198 | Hear the latest news broadcast? |
29198 | How about shells? 29198 How can anyone think that a fossil creature, penned in such a cell for thousands and thousands of years, could do any harm?" |
29198 | How can he work from a fixed position to make his attacks on the earth at such widely separated points? |
29198 | How can you tell where these heat beams are when they are turned on? |
29198 | How could you have foreseen such a thing? |
29198 | How did you know,demanded Ortiz suddenly,"that I serve because I despair?" |
29198 | How fast are we going? |
29198 | How''s this place opened? 29198 How,"he demanded,"can you return the Earth to its orbit, even granting you are able to take this initial step? |
29198 | How? |
29198 | I am wondering,said Sarka,"if you, my father, and you Dalis, have noted the peculiar appendages of the Aircars?" |
29198 | I? |
29198 | If it is a liquid, how will you prevent it from flowing back into the hole you have opened? |
29198 | Is he dead? |
29198 | Is n''t this a hell of a world, Bell? 29198 Is that coal in the biggest one with the dark center?" |
29198 | Is there anything I can do, sir? |
29198 | It is peculiar that one should love any woman,_ señores_--or do you, Señor Bell, find it natural? 29198 Just as a matter of curiosity,"said Bell mildly,"what is the excuse given on the flying field for this performance? |
29198 | Just coming out of it, Jack? |
29198 | Marie, dear,I asked gently, forcing the lump from my throat as best I could,"do n''t you know me? |
29198 | Marie,I said,"where are Jim and Jackie?" |
29198 | Mr. Barry? 29198 Now, Señor, what can I do that will serve you? |
29198 | Now, my father,queried Sarka again, telepathically,"what direction do we travel?" |
29198 | Now,I said,"how quickly can you put another object in the trap, re- seal the opening, and release the object?" |
29198 | Oh, Lord,I groaned,"ca n''t I forget the office for one evening?" |
29198 | Red? |
29198 | Rooney? 29198 Scared, Pete?" |
29198 | See? 29198 She''ll recover?" |
29198 | So,retorted Dalis,"you think me mad? |
29198 | Son, what is this thing you plan? |
29198 | Superstition is curious, is n''t it? |
29198 | Suppose we meet with Hadley''s fate? |
29198 | Surely no one from our earth has made the trip to one of the other planets? |
29198 | Take back the Secret which is known to- day to every son and daughter of woman? 29198 That would do it,"said Dalis, finding his voice at last;"but how would you control the course the Earth would take, thus thrown out of its orbit?" |
29198 | Then they wo n''t be looking for us? |
29198 | Then why ca n''t we see the red beam? |
29198 | Then why, if you had the means in the beginning to enforce your will upon us, confer with us at all? |
29198 | War? 29198 Well,"demanded Avery,"what''s all the show? |
29198 | Well-- what do you think of them? |
29198 | Well? |
29198 | Wha- a- at? |
29198 | What are you doing-- committing me? |
29198 | What are you going to do, Charles? |
29198 | What better test could be given than that which I am proposing? |
29198 | What do you mean?--a death ray evolved? |
29198 | What fuel do you use? |
29198 | What in hell are you doing here, Bell? 29198 What is it, Jim?" |
29198 | What is it, Jim? |
29198 | What is it, dear? |
29198 | What is it, dear? |
29198 | What is it, ma''am? |
29198 | What is it? |
29198 | What is it? |
29198 | What is it? |
29198 | What is to be done? |
29198 | What is your power? |
29198 | What made you ask? |
29198 | What now? |
29198 | What on earth? |
29198 | What say you, O Gens of Cleric? |
29198 | What space flyer? |
29198 | What to do now? |
29198 | What will your Gens say, O Dalis? 29198 What would happen?" |
29198 | What''s he up to now? |
29198 | What''s that? |
29198 | What''s this I hear? |
29198 | What''s your name? |
29198 | What, then,said Dalis,"do you think is the purpose of those appendages?" |
29198 | What? |
29198 | What? |
29198 | When all the world knows the Secret, when even children learn it before they are capable of walking? |
29198 | Where are we? |
29198 | Where else can they be from? |
29198 | Where then are the wrecked vessels? |
29198 | Who are they, to make war against a united Universe? |
29198 | Who is this enemy? |
29198 | Who, then, will be blamed if she does? 29198 Who, then, will control the further flight of the Earth?" |
29198 | Who-- who is it? |
29198 | Why do you not go out and lead your Gens? 29198 Why do you speak to me of The Master?" |
29198 | Why not,he began,"take away from men the Secret of Life, so that they will die, as formerly, when the world was young?" |
29198 | Why not? |
29198 | Why, miss, what is there to be wary of? 29198 Why-- why--"I stammered,"ca n''t you see? |
29198 | Why? |
29198 | Why? |
29198 | Will the_ Pioneer_ be ready? |
29198 | Will you take over? |
29198 | Will you, then, Dalis, allow your Gens to be led to glory by a woman? 29198 Would they?" |
29198 | Yes? |
29198 | You are Mr. Hartley Jones? |
29198 | You are certain that none escaped? |
29198 | You are the representative of the Council that we commanded to appear? |
29198 | You are working on something? |
29198 | You believe we have the power to do all this? |
29198 | You didt know, then, that your father''s death was arranged? |
29198 | You have a bomb in readiness? |
29198 | You hear? 29198 You know why our Ray Directors and Atom Disintegrators do not work, or work but poorly? |
29198 | You make your own fuel enroute? |
29198 | You mean work? |
29198 | You saw the same thing? |
29198 | You see? |
29198 | You see? |
29198 | You think you could reach a great enough velocity to escape the gravitational pull of the earth? |
29198 | You will get a revolver before you search further? |
29198 | You would have forced us into war? |
29198 | You''ll be careful, wo n''t you, Rooney? |
29198 | _ What?_***** Kellen nodded his magnificent old head gravely. |
29198 | *****"And is it not, Dalis,"replied Sarka the First, softly,"for this, really, that you have come to me? |
29198 | *****"We?" |
29198 | *****"What do you make it?" |
29198 | *****"What''s up?" |
29198 | A friend? |
29198 | A woman, moreover, who has duped you?" |
29198 | Aal? |
29198 | Against whom? |
29198 | All men are at their stations?" |
29198 | And a bit of quartz?" |
29198 | And how about our authors? |
29198 | And tell me, pray, if it is not true that you plan for the Sarkas their choice of the best and newest worlds of the Universe?" |
29198 | And where had his blood gone to? |
29198 | And you, Durce? |
29198 | And:"What of it?" |
29198 | Any other orders?" |
29198 | Are you ready, O my father, and father''s father?" |
29198 | At any rate, what better expedient was there to offer? |
29198 | Boler? |
29198 | But der subjects? |
29198 | But how about the bonds?" |
29198 | But how accomplish it?" |
29198 | But how to attack these formidable Aircars successfully? |
29198 | But since you do not know it, who now is master?" |
29198 | But to what avail? |
29198 | But what could their new, terrible weapon be? |
29198 | But what do you think of this mess?" |
29198 | But what is it that you wish me to do? |
29198 | CHAPTER IX_ The Attack of the Yellow Stars_"Why should I safeguard Jaska?" |
29198 | Could a person remember his own death in a former incarnation? |
29198 | Dalis, are you going to allow your Gens to go into action against these Outsiders, without the inspiration of your personal leadership?" |
29198 | Did I ever let you down in anything?" |
29198 | Did it never occur to you that the rocket motor is built on a disintegrating ray principle?" |
29198 | Did you use all you had?" |
29198 | Did you use thorium?" |
29198 | Do n''t want to quit, do you, George?" |
29198 | Do n''t you know where they are?" |
29198 | Do we follow this man who promises us that once again we shall dwell in plenty, without the blood of relatives and neighbors on our hands? |
29198 | Do you refuse, O Dalis, to send your Gens against the Moon?" |
29198 | Do you think you are teaching me anything-- about my own instrument?" |
29198 | Drop in and see us, will you? |
29198 | Eitel?" |
29198 | Had there been some other reason? |
29198 | Has he got you too?" |
29198 | Has that fiend caught you too?" |
29198 | Have you any news of what The Master plans?" |
29198 | He could see the expressions of unutterable agony on their faces, could see their cheeks turn black with-- what? |
29198 | Hime?" |
29198 | How are you?" |
29198 | How can I describe the sight which met our horrified gaze? |
29198 | How can you use it? |
29198 | How do I know, how does the world know, that you can do what you say you can do?" |
29198 | How had Dalis learned the secret sign- manual of Jaska and Sarka? |
29198 | How keep life on the Earth during its flight on this rainbow- chasing voyage you propose?" |
29198 | How long a time will be required in fitting out the_ Pioneer_ for reliable space flying?" |
29198 | How''d you get here? |
29198 | How''d you like to come along?" |
29198 | I ask you if you will go quietly into the car?" |
29198 | I demanded,"Has anything happened to my family?" |
29198 | I suppose you know what fate awaits you?" |
29198 | I thought of telephoning, but, what was the use? |
29198 | If Cleric does not fear for her to be Spokesman of a Gens, why should I? |
29198 | If an amoeba is that large here, what must an elephant look like? |
29198 | If he was to play up to Ortiz, why did n''t Jamison give him some sign of how he was to do it? |
29198 | If we could, together, devise a way to halt this rotation for as much as a few seconds, what would happen?" |
29198 | If you know, why remain here and watch the destruction of all the people of your Gens?" |
29198 | In the stillness the man''s words came harsh and commanding--"Do you see the cities,"he said,"crumbling to ruins under the cold stars? |
29198 | Inside the Earth? |
29198 | Is it not so?" |
29198 | Is it not so?" |
29198 | Is reincarnation a proven theory, or unproven? |
29198 | Is that clear?" |
29198 | Is that not so?" |
29198 | Makely?" |
29198 | May I ask you?..." |
29198 | May I invite you to be my guest on a little week- end jaunt to the Moon?" |
29198 | May I not accompany you?" |
29198 | Not pretending... what is the word?" |
29198 | Now to the point, I wonder if it is possible for you to obtain Mr. Cummings''permission to have your company publish these two stories? |
29198 | Now what is this great discovery, boy? |
29198 | Now, shall I tell you your secret?" |
29198 | Or is the entire staff subject to The Master?" |
29198 | Or should he still refuse battle-- and perhaps see some lesser Spokesman go forth to win glory and imperishable renown to himself? |
29198 | Or was it that something had happened to him? |
29198 | Prull? |
29198 | Queer, is n''t it? |
29198 | She demands that I assist you and the senorita-- it is the senorita?" |
29198 | Should he go ahead under the common leadership of the Sarkas? |
29198 | Someone has to go; otherwise, how could I prove my point? |
29198 | Stayin''late this evenin''?" |
29198 | Suppose they seared the countryside and the cities and suburbs with rays of horrible nature that would shrivel and blast all that lay in their path? |
29198 | That their revered Spokesman feared to lead them in person?" |
29198 | The fields? |
29198 | The frightful eyes-- had they then been but figments of the imagination? |
29198 | Then what happens to your scheme, Sarka the Third? |
29198 | Think you''ll be scared?" |
29198 | To berate me? |
29198 | To throw at my head mad schemes impossible of accomplishment? |
29198 | Vance? |
29198 | Vardee? |
29198 | Was it some refraction of the light?" |
29198 | What are your orders?" |
29198 | What cared I that the discoveries made in the excavating of the huge metal ring were of inestimable value to science? |
29198 | What difference who is master, so long as success attend our efforts?" |
29198 | What do you wish of me?" |
29198 | What does it mean?" |
29198 | What force could be so powerful that it could even budge so many tons? |
29198 | What have you found?" |
29198 | What if these invaders carried the war to the surface? |
29198 | What is it now?" |
29198 | What is it?" |
29198 | What say ye, Gens of Earth?" |
29198 | What say ye, Spokesmen of the Gens? |
29198 | What think you of the plan, Klaser? |
29198 | What was it?" |
29198 | What''s that got to do with it?" |
29198 | What, then? |
29198 | When is it your wish that we should start?" |
29198 | Where are you staying?" |
29198 | Where else, then?" |
29198 | Where in Sam Hill have you been keeping yourself?" |
29198 | Where now shall we find places for our people who are daily being born in myriads, to live, and love and flourish?" |
29198 | Where''s that door?" |
29198 | Which shall it be, Dalis? |
29198 | Who had murdered Rooney, and why? |
29198 | Why do n''t you drop around and see us one of these days?" |
29198 | Why do you oppose us?" |
29198 | Why do you serve him? |
29198 | Why had she done it? |
29198 | Why had she laughed, and left them, after the betrayal of the Master Beryl into the hands of Dalis? |
29198 | Why not give us several stories which helped to build his glory? |
29198 | Why not have a ballot to what size the magazine shall be? |
29198 | Why? |
29198 | Will you be seated?" |
29198 | Will you give the necessary orders?" |
29198 | Will you unseal the exit?" |
29198 | Will you?" |
29198 | With all connections in place, and all the world''s Beryls attuned to the speed of this one-- what would happen? |
29198 | Would not that also disprove the whole theory of reincarnation if it is true? |
29198 | Would they seize power the moment he moved away from the Beryl Control? |
29198 | You did n''t think I was going to send you alone, did you?" |
29198 | You doubtless recall a proposal you once made to Sarka the First? |
29198 | You fellows built a new one at Newark Airport, did n''t you?" |
29198 | You see? |
29198 | You, Marable, what''s all this mean?" |
29198 | Yuta? |
29198 | _ What Think You All?_ Dear Editor: There is one question I would like to ask. |
29198 | asked Hart,"and where?" |
29198 | he demanded;"what of it? |
29882 | ''Would it?'' 29882 ... Bring all Nareda on our ears? |
29882 | A little gag, Spawn? 29882 Admit that they took your bribes? |
29882 | Afraid for your wits? |
29882 | After all, he does stand for that aristocracy that has disappeared from the modern world, does he not? 29882 All right, Jetta?" |
29882 | And does he talk as you do? |
29882 | And this antidote of yours? |
29882 | And what did you get? 29882 And who are you?" |
29882 | And who rules over and beyond? |
29882 | And who will believe him? 29882 Any ill effects?" |
29882 | Any luck? |
29882 | Are the rest of the party on their way? |
29882 | Are they dangerous? |
29882 | Are we going on a case? |
29882 | Are you all right, William? |
29882 | Are you in there? 29882 Better?" |
29882 | But Commander--"Armed? 29882 But how does this darkness make the invisible airships luminous?" |
29882 | But suppose she should get out? 29882 But these are times when the Intelligence Service demands much of its men, is it not so?" |
29882 | But we can ask her when she awakens, ca n''t we? |
29882 | By the way, have you folks eaten? |
29882 | By the way,he inquired suddenly,"did n''t I have an extraordinarily obnoxious grandson with me when I came?" |
29882 | De Boer, do you intend to ask a ransom for Jetta? |
29882 | Did I? |
29882 | Did everything go all right? |
29882 | Did n''t President Hargreaves tell you? |
29882 | Did n''t he get a full dose of lethane? |
29882 | Did n''t your men leave him in the cabin when you kidnapped me? |
29882 | Did you hear something moving in back of us, Nan? |
29882 | Did you-- did you kill my father? |
29882 | Do you feel perfectly normal? |
29882 | Do you think that is not known all over Washington? |
29882 | Do you think--? |
29882 | Do you want to strangle me? |
29882 | Dog of an American,he roared,"do you know why you were brought here? |
29882 | Everything all ready, Aaron? |
29882 | Father--"About this young American? 29882 For why would I hurt him? |
29882 | Freda, what are you doing in here? 29882 Good fishing? |
29882 | Got it? |
29882 | Grandfather, what''s that? |
29882 | Grandpa, are polar bears_ always_ white? |
29882 | Have you had time to make an examination of that ship of Slavatsky''s, yet? |
29882 | Have you met with success, Doctor? |
29882 | Have you quite finished? |
29882 | How are you going to ransom me? |
29882 | How did you get back here? |
29882 | How did you know? |
29882 | How long have we been gone, Nan? |
29882 | How many cases did you find, Carnes? |
29882 | How many, grandfather? 29882 How?" |
29882 | I might marry her: why not? 29882 I? |
29882 | If a light ray is nullified upon entering the field of darkness, will it emerge at the other edge as a perfect light ray again? |
29882 | In here? 29882 Invisibility? |
29882 | Is it seemly,he asked,"that an officer of the American army should be brought here in chains and cords?" |
29882 | Is it so? 29882 Is n''t there anything we can do?" |
29882 | Jetta, are you in there? 29882 Jetta, are you near the window?" |
29882 | Jetta, dear, do you trust me? 29882 Jetta, to- night you plan to see him again, no? |
29882 | Jetta, you''re not too frightened, are you? |
29882 | Jetta,Perona said to her accusingly,"that is true, then: you did talk with that miserable Americano last night? |
29882 | Karl, what''s the meaning of this? 29882 Luke, do n''t you know me?" |
29882 | Maynard? |
29882 | Me? 29882 Now then, Jetta, you have heard some of what we have been saying, perhaps?" |
29882 | Now you are perhaps in a more gracious mood, Professor? 29882 Oh, what is it? |
29882 | Ready? |
29882 | Run where? |
29882 | So this is it? 29882 So you''re the smuggler I was sent after?" |
29882 | So, you say? |
29882 | Sooner? |
29882 | That gas-- you can not be so vile as to send it forth again, to destroy the American ships? |
29882 | That''s a record, is n''t it? |
29882 | The gentleman who spent forty years of his life upon a tall pillar, in atonement for his sins? 29882 The girl''s an old friend, Commander? |
29882 | The key to the place where President Hargreaves is? |
29882 | Then,said Stopford,"the logical application of your method is to plunge every city in the land into darkness by means of this gas?" |
29882 | There''s no other way out of here? |
29882 | They held the wire while you called up the President? |
29882 | Think we were never coming? |
29882 | This attack will be successful, eh, Hans? |
29882 | Those police guards at the mine to- night? |
29882 | Try to ransom me for a fat price from the United States? |
29882 | Well, Captain Rennell, what have you to report to us this evening? |
29882 | What are they waiting for? 29882 What are you going to do with me?" |
29882 | What are you going to do with me? |
29882 | What do you expect to happen, Doctor? |
29882 | What do you mean, Carson? |
29882 | What do you mean? |
29882 | What do you mean? |
29882 | What do you read? |
29882 | What happened to the little rat, Aaron? |
29882 | What happened? |
29882 | What has happened? |
29882 | What have you to say, Rennell? |
29882 | What is it, Aaron? |
29882 | What is it, Aaron? |
29882 | What is it? |
29882 | What is there to be worried about? |
29882 | What is this? |
29882 | What keys? |
29882 | What of that? 29882 What on earth were they doing?" |
29882 | What the dickens? |
29882 | What will we use? |
29882 | What''s happened? |
29882 | What''s happening? |
29882 | What''s that for? |
29882 | What''s that noise? |
29882 | Where am I? |
29882 | Where are the others? |
29882 | Where are we? 29882 Where are you, Rennell? |
29882 | Where is Captain Rennell? |
29882 | Where was I? |
29882 | Where''s the President''s secretary? 29882 Where''s your officer?" |
29882 | Where''s your ship? |
29882 | Where? |
29882 | Who are you? 29882 Who told you I was attached to Intelligence?" |
29882 | Who was he? |
29882 | Why does not your darkness destroy all light? |
29882 | Why should he not? 29882 Why--""Is it not so?" |
29882 | Will you answer a question, Doctor? |
29882 | Will you help me, Willis? 29882 Y- yes, but I am not--""A man?" |
29882 | You call my master a forger? |
29882 | You can rush the fleet there, sir? |
29882 | You come, Commander? |
29882 | You do n''t suppose, Aaron, by any chance that Professor Dahlgren is still alive and on our planet? |
29882 | You do n''t think we''re in any danger from these beasts, do you? |
29882 | You have heard of St. Simeon Stylites, Yankee? |
29882 | You hear me? |
29882 | You hear, Spawn? 29882 You insist with that question?" |
29882 | You know your orders, Maynard? |
29882 | You mean,breathed the girl,"that he never moved from that spot after the rays touched his body? |
29882 | You recognize that signature, gentlemen? |
29882 | You refuse to answer? |
29882 | You seal her in? |
29882 | You seriously propose to darken the greater part of eastern North America? |
29882 | You think that? 29882 You yourselves repudiate your own Constitution, which places the control of army and navy in the hands of your President? |
29882 | ''Me stand naked in front of all them lamps and get turned into smoke? |
29882 | *****"Did that feel good, American swine?" |
29882 | *****"Do you know what all this means?" |
29882 | *****"The United States Government has sunk pretty low, to involve itself in a deal of this character, do n''t you think, my dear Superintendent?" |
29882 | *****"Well, gentlemen, am I to receive the courtesies of an ambassador?" |
29882 | *****"What''s that, what''s that, what''s that?" |
29882 | *****"Who''s Jackson Gee? |
29882 | A single word came to Carruthers''ear--"Man?" |
29882 | Against your word, Spawn? |
29882 | And I shall see you at Mrs. Wansleigh''s ball to- night?" |
29882 | And Jetta? |
29882 | And is it not interesting to note that some of his stories have become actual realizations? |
29882 | And it is that this Grant might be your rival, that worries you? |
29882 | And the gale-- was it now sweeping northward on its mission of destruction? |
29882 | Are n''t you going to tell me about that?" |
29882 | Are polar bears always white? |
29882 | Are polar bears always white? |
29882 | Are you all right?" |
29882 | Are you in there?" |
29882 | Are you ready, Carnes?" |
29882 | Are you willing to instruct me while I remove the menthium from him?" |
29882 | As much as fifty? |
29882 | At what time of day did they occur?" |
29882 | But could n''t your taste be improved? |
29882 | But had they understood the significance of those bare patches? |
29882 | But surely the utmost ingenuity of man had not contrived to render a modern plane, with its metalwork and machinery, absolutely transparent? |
29882 | But they''ll catch us--""Which is the key?" |
29882 | But what about Jetta? |
29882 | But what was I going to do about it? |
29882 | But where are we?" |
29882 | But who controlled them? |
29882 | But you will ransom me? |
29882 | But-- are you willing to follow me?" |
29882 | By the way, may I say a few good words for Sophie Wenzel Ellis? |
29882 | Ca n''t they open it? |
29882 | Can they send him to prison?'' |
29882 | Can you stand alone?" |
29882 | Can you stand up?" |
29882 | Carnes?" |
29882 | Could I hold them off? |
29882 | Could I save it, and her as well? |
29882 | Could n''t you get the rays to work sooner?" |
29882 | De Boer''s voice:"Is he conscious now? |
29882 | Did De Boer think he could out- distance this patrol- ship, the swiftest type of flyer in the Service? |
29882 | Did any points of similarity strike you as you read them?" |
29882 | Did father know him? |
29882 | Did n''t they get us?" |
29882 | Did you bring any with you?" |
29882 | Did you have any trouble in getting here unobserved?" |
29882 | Did you meet-- did you talk to Grant last night?" |
29882 | Do n''t you see what the end must be? |
29882 | Do n''t you think it would be a good idea to publish in each issue the picture of one of the authors, and a short synopsis of his life? |
29882 | Do you?" |
29882 | Does father know him? |
29882 | Fifty? |
29882 | For, I asked myself, why, if such a machine could produce two human identities, why not a score, a hundred, a thousand? |
29882 | Fought out, when everything was disorganized? |
29882 | Frighten them off, for a time, and make enough noise so that perhaps someone passing in the nearby street would give the alarm and bring help? |
29882 | God, man, what''s happened to your legs?" |
29882 | Grant, you hear her?" |
29882 | Had he only dreamed all this? |
29882 | Had the murdered man really bumped into an invisible airship, or had he only thought he had? |
29882 | Had those devils learned to apply the gas to the surfaces of airplanes? |
29882 | Hans?" |
29882 | Has he any polar bears? |
29882 | Has it got bears in it? |
29882 | Have I your permission to do so?" |
29882 | Have you arranged the elements? |
29882 | Have you seen the evening paper?" |
29882 | Have you thought of that, Perona? |
29882 | He can get here to my house safely?" |
29882 | Hear me?" |
29882 | How about your precautions for to- morrow night?" |
29882 | How can you account for it? |
29882 | How could a bulky man glide so smoothly? |
29882 | How could the apes and gorillas, huge as they were, hope to force the dinosaur away? |
29882 | How did I get here?" |
29882 | How did you get back here?" |
29882 | How did you get here so opportunely?" |
29882 | How did you get here?" |
29882 | I am skilful at persuasion, no? |
29882 | I called, louder,"Why do n''t you come in?" |
29882 | I presume you thought that we had no way of detecting the substitution? |
29882 | I said abruptly,"De Boer, since we are to be friends--""So you prefer to sit down now?" |
29882 | I ventured,"And Jetta?" |
29882 | If it was true, why had they suddenly become silent, inert? |
29882 | If you leave her here, De Boer--""Why should I leave her? |
29882 | In the second place Bird should have yielded more menthium, and in the third place, did you notice his hands? |
29882 | Is father fifty?" |
29882 | Is he not a contemptuous fellow, this American?" |
29882 | Is it a nice story? |
29882 | Is it not so? |
29882 | Is she seventeen? |
29882 | Is the ship well stocked?" |
29882 | It has gone so far as this, has it? |
29882 | Just what is the first step in removing the menthium from a brain?" |
29882 | Leave her-- for Perona?" |
29882 | May I add my voice to every other reader''s in the cry for the reprinting of"People of the Pit,"by A. Merritt? |
29882 | Meanwhile, what did he intend to do with me? |
29882 | Mr. Bryant asks:"Could a person remember his own death in a former reincarnation?" |
29882 | Must they stay here? |
29882 | My X- flyer''s a very handy thing to have, is n''t it?" |
29882 | My second suggestion in this: Why not have a fixed position for your announcement of the stories for the next issue? |
29882 | Or could I escape with her, and still find some means to save the treasure? |
29882 | Polar bears? |
29882 | Ransom me? |
29882 | Ready, Karl?" |
29882 | Rennell,_ Von Kettler was there!_""He went to this restaurant, sir?" |
29882 | Shall I proceed?" |
29882 | Shall I tell what else I saw?" |
29882 | Shall we break in? |
29882 | So this was that lost invisible flyer? |
29882 | So you have awakened?" |
29882 | Spawn said,"You think De Boer will believe that?" |
29882 | Spawn:"You will arrange about your police on the streets? |
29882 | Squires?" |
29882 | Suppose I could not find an opportunity to escape with Jetta? |
29882 | Suppose, as De Boer climbed in the window, I killed him? |
29882 | The question is, what we shall do about it?'' |
29882 | The question we wish to put to you is, can you trace the exact course taken by the hurricane?" |
29882 | The unknown isotope in that black gas of yours-- you are disposed to give us the chemical formula?" |
29882 | The wind velocity--?" |
29882 | Then came Spawn''s voice:"Got him, De Boer? |
29882 | This Grant?" |
29882 | To- night?--here?" |
29882 | Vice- president,"laughed Von Kettler,"are you sure this is n''t all very much exaggerated?" |
29882 | Vice- president?" |
29882 | Was Captain Rennell crazy too? |
29882 | Was De Boer rushing into a collision? |
29882 | Was it conceivable that a gas factory, hangars, ammunition depots could exist here invisibly, when he could look straight down upon the ground? |
29882 | Was it possible that the headquarters of the Invisible Emperor existed on this desolate prairie? |
29882 | Was my love for her foredoomed to end in tragedy? |
29882 | Was the other a dummy, too?" |
29882 | Was there a torch here at Spawn''s? |
29882 | We''re prisoners on an electron, and as such we are destined to rush through infinite space for the remainder of our lives unless....""Unless what?" |
29882 | Well, sir, what have you to say to that?" |
29882 | Well, why not me as well? |
29882 | What about Jetta? |
29882 | What are the chances of its reaching Washington?" |
29882 | What are the soldiers for? |
29882 | What are you talking about? |
29882 | What became of that little rat?" |
29882 | What did they mean? |
29882 | What do you suppose happened?" |
29882 | What happened?" |
29882 | What has happened? |
29882 | What is it?" |
29882 | What matter if the herds of dinosaurs overrun us and destroy lives? |
29882 | What was the matter with his mind? |
29882 | What was the matter, Karl? |
29882 | What were they doing, bunching together like a flock of sheep, when at any moment the enemy planes might come swooping in, riddling them with bullets? |
29882 | What''s D- r- a- y- l- e? |
29882 | What''s in the box? |
29882 | What''s that got to do with it?" |
29882 | When do you expect trouble?" |
29882 | Where did the attacks take place?" |
29882 | Where had he seen them before? |
29882 | Where is Captain Rennell, I say?" |
29882 | Where is Spawn? |
29882 | Where is he?" |
29882 | Which side would win? |
29882 | Who told you that I did?" |
29882 | Who was he? |
29882 | Who will dare to give me the lie because a bandit tells a wild tale with no real facts to prop it?" |
29882 | Who''s seen him? |
29882 | Why did n''t his feet sound upon the floor? |
29882 | Why did n''t the red mouth of the mighty dinosaur close over him and crush out life? |
29882 | Why do n''t they go away?" |
29882 | Why had they not long ago wiped out these few Marines? |
29882 | Why must he kneel in torture? |
29882 | Why not get the opinion of other readers? |
29882 | Why not give us some stories by him? |
29882 | Why not? |
29882 | Why should any person ask not to have such good stories in your magazine? |
29882 | Why should any such great author be disregarded in so good a magazine? |
29882 | Why should n''t I feel normal? |
29882 | Why? |
29882 | Why? |
29882 | Why?" |
29882 | Will you be able to restore them?" |
29882 | Will you come?" |
29882 | Will you guide Carnes to the tent and then return here and I''ll join him?" |
29882 | Will you please tell me what you are talking about?" |
29882 | Would I come to the garden tryst? |
29882 | Would that moment come before he crashed? |
29882 | Would the returning ray work? |
29882 | You are much concerned for your safety, Grant? |
29882 | You have a flash- light?" |
29882 | You have pack''chutes, have n''t you?" |
29882 | You have the tent set up for us, Major?" |
29882 | You heard from De Boer?" |
29882 | You heard my orders to Lieutenant Maynard, did n''t you?" |
29882 | You refuse to honor his signature?" |
29882 | You understand?" |
29882 | You understand?" |
29882 | You''ve heard about the man Von Kettler''s escape last night, of course?" |
29882 | You, an honest and wealthy mine owner? |
29882 | Your craft is equipped with a Bird silencer?" |
29882 | Your magazine( or should I say"our"magazine?) |
29882 | groaned Carnes as he fumbled for the rip cord of his parachute,"suppose this thing does n''t open?" |
29882 | what are the lives of these swarming millions worth when compared with a Caesar, a Napoleon, an Alexander, a Charlemagne? |
30166 | A meteor? 30166 A pteranodon? |
30166 | A what? |
30166 | All right, Alan? |
30166 | All right, Hammond? |
30166 | All right? |
30166 | Am I dreaming? 30166 And have the Quebec police up here lookin''fer''em? |
30166 | And we do your bidding, will ye give us back His Splendor? |
30166 | And where did Virginia go? |
30166 | And why not? |
30166 | And you think he does n''t count in this? |
30166 | Are there many giants? |
30166 | Are you hurt, Dick? |
30166 | Are you no conscious yet? |
30166 | Are you positive,Alden demanded of Hero John,"that this revolution in Atlans will die out if Altara is returned?" |
30166 | Are you sure, Lina? 30166 Art thou sure?" |
30166 | But how can that be? 30166 But what good is a.45 against brutes like those? |
30166 | But what the devil is all this revolt about? |
30166 | But what''s that noise? |
30166 | But why? 30166 But you?" |
30166 | Ca n''t you understand me? |
30166 | Calaboose? 30166 Can you land us, Alan?" |
30166 | Dad,she was saying,"why do n''t you give it up? |
30166 | Did he see you? |
30166 | Do I? 30166 Do n''t you see? |
30166 | Einstein again? |
30166 | Ever see so many stairs? |
30166 | George, when we knew Polter, he was about twenty- five, was n''t he? 30166 George-- where are you? |
30166 | Glora, do you know if any of Dr. Polter''s men have the drug? 30166 Glora, where will you be?" |
30166 | Got any weapons here, Shelton? |
30166 | Guns are n''t loaded, are they? |
30166 | Have n''t you guys got enough? |
30166 | Have those foul swine of Jarmuth dared--? |
30166 | Have you any enemies who might be able to duplicate the impulses of that apparatus? |
30166 | Hear me? |
30166 | Heavens-- how do I know? 30166 Help you off? |
30166 | Here-- what''s this? |
30166 | His car-- stolen? 30166 His_ Tao_?" |
30166 | How am I to know Altara if I see her? 30166 How big were those pteranodons?" |
30166 | How can they ever combat a thing they can not see? |
30166 | How did it happen? |
30166 | How large are they? 30166 How long?" |
30166 | How many? |
30166 | How should I know how they did it? |
30166 | How will ye accomplish this mad boast? |
30166 | I am from Zahn: do you know the good land of Zahn? 30166 It''s a big brute: see how small the gunners look beside it? |
30166 | Jail, eh? 30166 Know ye that the Sacred Virgin lies captive in the dungeons of the great temple of Beelzebub? |
30166 | Know ye,continued, the graybeard priest,"that Altara is ever guarded by two thousand picked priests and warriors? |
30166 | Might do what? |
30166 | Mind telling me the principle? |
30166 | No other cities? |
30166 | Not very pretty are they? 30166 Now what, Glora? |
30166 | Ready, George? |
30166 | Ready, Glora? |
30166 | Save Atlans--? |
30166 | Something fell? |
30166 | Speak on: is that all? |
30166 | Terrible, are n''t they, Vic? |
30166 | That the house? |
30166 | Then what''s weird?? 30166 Then what''s weird?? |
30166 | Then you''ll leave the old place down here? |
30166 | There are his lights; see them? |
30166 | There now-- see? |
30166 | They''ve sent you to find me? |
30166 | They? |
30166 | Think this idea of yours is sure- fire? |
30166 | Thought you could put one over on Al Cadorna, did you? |
30166 | Try to take my woman, will you? |
30166 | Want to grab the old one? |
30166 | What about your robots? |
30166 | What are you going to do with us? |
30166 | What are you going to do? |
30166 | What are you talking about? 30166 What can we do?" |
30166 | What do they amount to? |
30166 | What do you want me to do? |
30166 | What in the devil is Vic doing? 30166 What in the devil is your idea?" |
30166 | What is it, Mr. Vail? 30166 What of the divine Altara, fool?" |
30166 | What sayest thou, mad fellow? |
30166 | What the devil are these idiots trying to do? |
30166 | What would ye with these creature? |
30166 | What''ll we do with it? |
30166 | What''s it for? |
30166 | What''s the good in Einstein, anyhow? |
30166 | What''s the idea? |
30166 | What''s the matter? 30166 What''s the matter?" |
30166 | What''s this rot about your going into Jarmuth alone? 30166 What''s wrong with them?" |
30166 | What-- what happened? |
30166 | What? |
30166 | Where is it? |
30166 | Where''s what? |
30166 | Who is he? |
30166 | Who''s gone? 30166 Why did he wish this?" |
30166 | Why not? 30166 Why were we arrested? |
30166 | Will you fly me, George? |
30166 | Will you take us? |
30166 | Wonder if they could be handled? |
30166 | Wonder what I''m booked for? |
30166 | Wouldst thou not doubly save her, now? |
30166 | Yeah? |
30166 | Yes, Mr. Hammond, what do you think of Einstein now? |
30166 | Yes? 30166 Yes?" |
30166 | You can find out? |
30166 | You can make this one invisible? |
30166 | You hurt? |
30166 | You knew of the first one''s escape, did n''t you? |
30166 | You know of father''s break with Universal Electric? 30166 You like it? |
30166 | You like it? 30166 You mean Polter''s men?" |
30166 | You mean to go? 30166 You see the little box with bars? |
30166 | You think really it best to go? 30166 You understand me? |
30166 | You understand? 30166 You will not harm her, Polter?" |
30166 | You would n''t want to leave George, would you? 30166 You''ll not report to Universal?" |
30166 | You, George? 30166 ***** A mechanism of some sort-- but what? 30166 ***** But what was the purpose of the long sleep? 30166 ***** Had the fascination of the outer world drawn her back? 30166 ***** Launch himself upon it? 30166 ***** This afternoon? 30166 *****The giants live, there?" |
30166 | *****"You know me?" |
30166 | A crack under the door-- is that it, off there?" |
30166 | A faster time- rate prevailed in here? |
30166 | A gold mine? |
30166 | A tiny figure? |
30166 | About Einstein? |
30166 | Alan panted,"Glora, this-- does this lead out?" |
30166 | Alan, where are you?" |
30166 | Am I so different from other girls? |
30166 | An''that damn girl he stole off the terrace-- What did he call her, Barbara Kent?" |
30166 | And Babs, abducted by him, to be taken-- where? |
30166 | And Luhra!--what hope for her out there?... |
30166 | And now, the rest of you Readers, what are you going to do with your share? |
30166 | And to your normal size?" |
30166 | And where was Polter? |
30166 | And-- for what? |
30166 | Another pellet?" |
30166 | Are n''t there any tall girls in your imaginations? |
30166 | Are n''t we all signed up as associate editors for the future"ideal magazine?" |
30166 | Are you still rebellious? |
30166 | As Mr. Addison says in his letter,"Why ruin a truly great magazine by catering to a misguided minority?" |
30166 | Babs gone?" |
30166 | Babs?" |
30166 | Bars? |
30166 | Big as a Moth plane, is n''t he?" |
30166 | But Babs? |
30166 | But how is that going to pay my grocery bill-- or yours?" |
30166 | But how? |
30166 | But how? |
30166 | But in what size? |
30166 | But who could it be? |
30166 | But you no longer rebel?" |
30166 | Can this priest save Altara? |
30166 | Can you hear me?" |
30166 | Can you not publish four new novels and one reprint in 1931? |
30166 | Can you see her? |
30166 | Could he and his two fellows beat off the infuriated Jarmuthians long enough? |
30166 | Could n''t that be possible? |
30166 | Could we chance landing inside the wall? |
30166 | Did Horab know the truth? |
30166 | Did you see it?" |
30166 | Dimly, he recalled having once before encountered such an odor; when was it? |
30166 | Do n''t you think of that? |
30166 | Do n''t you understand? |
30166 | Do n''t you understand?" |
30166 | Do not the dark hordes of Jereboam beat back our frontiers?" |
30166 | Do you remember what a pteranodon was?" |
30166 | Do you want to crush him, and crush that young girl with him?" |
30166 | Doggone it, but why do n''t you cut out some of that romantic stuff in your stories? |
30166 | Dr. Polter, will you let me be with my father? |
30166 | Following us now? |
30166 | For instance, can a baby read magazines? |
30166 | Forever? |
30166 | Get it? |
30166 | Get large, shall we?" |
30166 | Had Polter stolen that missing fragment of golden quartz the size of a walnut which had been beneath Dr. Kent''s microscope? |
30166 | Had she trusted too greatly in the power of his Tao to shield her from harm? |
30166 | Half and half-- that''s fair, is n''t it? |
30166 | Has any new and terrible engine of destruction ever accomplished that result? |
30166 | Have ye forgotten the battle by Lake Copias?" |
30166 | He murmured:"But what do we do? |
30166 | He shouted,"You do that? |
30166 | He''d know at once-- and where is Babs? |
30166 | Here''s one point that I do n''t like: Why are all those invaders from other planets hostile? |
30166 | How about it, Mr. Bates? |
30166 | How could he get his hands free? |
30166 | How d''you know they wo n''t skin you alive once you''re over the border?" |
30166 | How deep is it?" |
30166 | How far away in size, who knows? |
30166 | How long will you be gone, Alan?" |
30166 | How many shots you got?" |
30166 | How much have you? |
30166 | How on earth can they keep going? |
30166 | How? |
30166 | I mean, do they come in and out here?" |
30166 | I rubbed my eyes doubtfully, said to Charlie,"Do you see a sort of blue haze in the pit?" |
30166 | I would like to know if the story,"Marooned Under the Sea,"was found near New Zealand or is it just fiction? |
30166 | I''m not asking you to do that, am I?" |
30166 | If Virginia cares for scientific reputation--""But what is it?" |
30166 | If he feels that way about it, why does n''t he subscribe to it and take the cover off when he reads it? |
30166 | Is it true the phalanxes at Tricca have risen for the priests?" |
30166 | Is n''t a sequel possible? |
30166 | Is n''t all fiction more or less of a fairy tale? |
30166 | Is that clear?" |
30166 | Is that someone coming?" |
30166 | Is that where he took the Earth girl?" |
30166 | Is that where he went? |
30166 | Is there a statue, a painting or something--?" |
30166 | Is this it? |
30166 | Iss it not so? |
30166 | It is an island, as you know, for have you not come here from afar?" |
30166 | It''s funny, is n''t it? |
30166 | Just like''em to be swiping a new war machine; but had n''t they gotten enough in 1944? |
30166 | Know that?" |
30166 | Know what I think? |
30166 | Know ye that this temple is in the center of Jezreel, capitol of Jarmuth?" |
30166 | Know ye, moreover, that this vile sacrifice will be made but two days hence?" |
30166 | Lost in size? |
30166 | My world?" |
30166 | Never see him again? |
30166 | No kiddin''--where is your Editor''s pride? |
30166 | No? |
30166 | Now, one thing more: what part of the border is still unquestionably loyal?" |
30166 | Of his private experiments?" |
30166 | Or was it someone creeping along the wall of the house? |
30166 | Or were we star- crossed, doomed like the realm of the atom? |
30166 | Our little Babs will lof me; why should she not? |
30166 | Polter?" |
30166 | Quarter of a mile? |
30166 | Question: What is the difference between an egg and a copy of Astounding Stories? |
30166 | Savvy? |
30166 | See the starlight on the lake? |
30166 | See?" |
30166 | See?" |
30166 | Seest thou yonder Ziggurat which o''er towers all others?" |
30166 | Seriously, now, why not consider this and take up a vote among your Readers to see what they think? |
30166 | She called:"Why? |
30166 | So big?" |
30166 | Something different, do n''t you think? |
30166 | Suppose she had seen you?" |
30166 | Sure? |
30166 | That girl of your world the doctor just now steal, she is friend of yours? |
30166 | That will be nice? |
30166 | The divinely beautiful Altara-- butchered for meat like a calf? |
30166 | The hand of a woman-- a girl!--what marvel of miracles was this? |
30166 | Then why should we quarrel now? |
30166 | Thirty feet away? |
30166 | To get larger, or smaller? |
30166 | Try to blind him, would he? |
30166 | Trying to dig out one of his eyes? |
30166 | Understand that? |
30166 | Very small? |
30166 | Was he too late? |
30166 | Was it true or was it a mirage? |
30166 | Was it-- compared to my stature now-- a thousand miles, perhaps even a million miles up to where we had been two or three hours ago? |
30166 | Was this an accident-- or treachery? |
30166 | Was this swift embrace now marking the end of everything for us? |
30166 | We want a magazine to be proud of, do n''t we? |
30166 | Were the heinies mixed up in this thing? |
30166 | What about the poor readers who want to have a Science Fiction library? |
30166 | What did it cover? |
30166 | What did it matter? |
30166 | What do they amount to, after all? |
30166 | What do you care what I do to your world? |
30166 | What do you want?" |
30166 | What does it all mean?" |
30166 | What happened? |
30166 | What happens? |
30166 | What has happened? |
30166 | What have I done?" |
30166 | What if Alden or Hero Giles failed in their share of the great scheme for rescue? |
30166 | What if something went wrong?" |
30166 | What if the stories are like fairy tales? |
30166 | What in the devil was a pteranodon? |
30166 | What point was there in prolonging the pitiful struggle? |
30166 | What say? |
30166 | What terrible thing might happen then? |
30166 | What the devil? |
30166 | What to do? |
30166 | What was happening? |
30166 | What was it supposed to do?" |
30166 | What''s happened?" |
30166 | What''s happened?" |
30166 | Whatever happens, you think of nothing else: you wo n''t, will you?" |
30166 | Where the devil was he? |
30166 | Where was Babs? |
30166 | Where was Glora? |
30166 | Where was that damned door? |
30166 | Where were Alan and Glora? |
30166 | Which? |
30166 | Who are you, and who is this black beast? |
30166 | Who are you?" |
30166 | Who could know what some of them might contain? |
30166 | Who stole it?" |
30166 | Who the devil was this fellow Carlos anyway? |
30166 | Who were"they?" |
30166 | Why ca n''t they go on an exploring expedition to our Earth? |
30166 | Why did I let you go?" |
30166 | Why do n''t you try publishing a thick Quarterly? |
30166 | Why do these skeptical and scientifically disposed critics continue to waste your valuable time picking scientific flaws in various stories? |
30166 | Why how dare you? |
30166 | Why not coat a teleview screen with some radio- active material?" |
30166 | Why not have a vote on this? |
30166 | Why should Five- Novels Monthly get all the breaks? |
30166 | Why should I not be, with my dear little Babs? |
30166 | Why should n''t he? |
30166 | Why waste your time, Mr. Johnston, telling us you do n''t like A. S.? |
30166 | Why we were arrested and-- nearly made into allosaurus fodder?" |
30166 | Why? |
30166 | Will ye still do my bidding and help to save our sovereign lord?" |
30166 | Will you be ready?" |
30166 | Will you come?" |
30166 | Will you?" |
30166 | Wo n''t you open the gate? |
30166 | Would Hero Giles remain friendly? |
30166 | Would Polter make the entire trip without a stop? |
30166 | Would he? |
30166 | Would we be in time? |
30166 | Wrestle with it in a hand to hand combat? |
30166 | Yes? |
30166 | Yet how could he prevent the pitiful tragedy? |
30166 | You always knew I would nefer be satisfied until I had my little Babs? |
30166 | You are afraid? |
30166 | You are all right, Babs?" |
30166 | You eat your prisoners?" |
30166 | You got Babs?" |
30166 | You haf still determined to compound no more of our drugs? |
30166 | You hear me?" |
30166 | You see the island off there?" |
30166 | You swear you''ll not reveal what I am about to show you?" |
30166 | You think, my little Babs, that he has the drugs? |
30166 | You understand that, both of you? |
30166 | You would rather I killed you? |
30166 | _ Two Problems_ Dear Editor: My last letter was entirely commendatory, but this time I am losing the full force of my critical powers(?) |
30166 | and printing flops by cheap writers, who are ruining other Science Fiction magazines? |
30166 | he told himself-- it was as near as he could come to a name for the machine--"and it''s been running here all this time.... What for, I wonder? |
30166 | she whispered;"yes, my dear one?" |
41481 | A kidnapping case? |
41481 | A question occurs to me,said the Doctor:"will others be able to manipulate the machine as successfully as you can?" |
41481 | Ai n''t it a small world? |
41481 | An''''ow could I say, sir? |
41481 | And after that? |
41481 | And exactly what is an absolute zero? |
41481 | And exactly what is an absolute zero? |
41481 | And how has business been with you lately? |
41481 | And is there no danger of the machine going wrong-- of destroying itself and us? |
41481 | And the cloaks for Charlie and me? |
41481 | And the-- beetles? |
41481 | And they were all strangers to you? |
41481 | And what''s up there, or down there, or whatever you call it? |
41481 | And yet you had his confidence in other matters? |
41481 | And you do n''t know what the professor was trying to invent? |
41481 | And you feel that you have all the necessary qualifications? |
41481 | Any more bombs? |
41481 | Are you all right? |
41481 | Are you hurt, Doctor? |
41481 | Are you sure they have n''t spirited him away? |
41481 | As a sensible man, do n''t you think yourself that your story is a bit thin? 41481 Bram got-- that girl? |
41481 | But how about getting Haidia across? |
41481 | But how? |
41481 | But what are our chances? |
41481 | But what are they looking for? |
41481 | But what becomes of me after you have frustrated Philip''s plot? |
41481 | But what has all this to do with finding out what has become of my friend? |
41481 | But what if he does? 41481 But wo n''t your lens prevent the ultra- violet light from reaching your plate?" |
41481 | But you are too interested in Wall Street to leave it for the open road? |
41481 | Ca n''t you move that arm and leg at all, Dodd? |
41481 | Can you think of no plausible reason for this attack? 41481 Can you throw any light on a motive for such a crime?" |
41481 | Captain Harvey,said the general,"you are sure that dead spot has not been bombarded with gas- shells?" |
41481 | Carnes,he said at length,"do you see anything on this gun that looks like tooth marks?" |
41481 | Damned weird, is n''t it? |
41481 | Did it turn off the road? |
41481 | Did you hear any noises? |
41481 | Did you notice anything strange about those fruit trees? |
41481 | Did you see it, Doctor? |
41481 | Do n''t you feel the lure of it? 41481 Do n''t you see that he''s insane? |
41481 | Do n''t you understand me now? |
41481 | Do n''t you understand? 41481 Do you know the nature of his will?" |
41481 | Do you mean to tell us that auto drove itself? |
41481 | Do you think he will live? |
41481 | Do you wish to start at once, sir? |
41481 | Excited? |
41481 | For God''s sake, Doctor, what is it? |
41481 | General? |
41481 | Had he been drinking? |
41481 | Have n''t you guessed yet, Travers? |
41481 | Have they been reoccupied? |
41481 | Have those two strayed infantrymen reported yet? |
41481 | Have you been reading those stories that the papers have been carrying about Mammoth Cave? |
41481 | Have you ever been to Mammoth Cave? |
41481 | Hello, Sergeant-- Sergeant Coffee, is it?... 41481 High explosive?" |
41481 | How can it be? 41481 How can you-- how can we dare plunge into this thing? |
41481 | How d''you mean? 41481 How dare you? |
41481 | How does that huge thing ever get through that crack we examined? |
41481 | How does the secret service cut in on it? |
41481 | How far do you think we dropped just now? |
41481 | How large are full grown ones if this is a baby? |
41481 | How long does that gas last? |
41481 | How long have you known Professor Wroxton? |
41481 | How many rooms do you occupy now? |
41481 | How much further, Hope? |
41481 | How near is the next house? |
41481 | How soon are we leaving? |
41481 | How''d you know? |
41481 | How''s Haidia? |
41481 | How? |
41481 | However,Clason drew a deep breath"you see this other device? |
41481 | In Chicago? |
41481 | In other words, an invisible light? |
41481 | Is he dead? |
41481 | Is n''t this enough for just now, Burke? |
41481 | Jimmy, ever see an apple before? |
41481 | Jouret? 41481 King of what? |
41481 | Live stock? |
41481 | Love her? 41481 My God, Captain Storm, do n''t you know the difference between an insect and a crustacean? |
41481 | My little Hope, what is it? 41481 Nicely trained horses, what?" |
41481 | No feeling in them? |
41481 | No, what? |
41481 | Now you understand why I advertised for a man of exceptional character? 41481 Oh, by the way, you did n''t see my lighter anywhere, did you?" |
41481 | On May 27th, the day your husband died, what happened, as you re- remember it? |
41481 | Or do you fear deeds of daring? 41481 Pretty trick, what, Travers? |
41481 | Professor Wroxton was a wealthy man without kith or kin? |
41481 | Ready? |
41481 | Reckon he''s lyin'', Pete? |
41481 | Say, what the-- what-- what''s that? |
41481 | See this range- setter? |
41481 | See what they''re doing, Dodd? 41481 So you dismissed them as mere press agent work?" |
41481 | Strain? 41481 Tell me,"he said in a husky voice,"how do you intend to use me? |
41481 | That is all you know of the Jourets? |
41481 | That so? |
41481 | The king,Derek demanded,"Which is his apartment? |
41481 | The machine started and turned into the road--"Did you notice anyone at the wheel? |
41481 | Their aircraft have not been dropping bombs, positively? |
41481 | Then how did human beings get here, and those damn beetles? 41481 These things?" |
41481 | This gentleman desires information in connection with the death of our neighbor Mr., or is it Dr., Darrow? 41481 This you, Perk?" |
41481 | Tommy, old man, how are you feeling now? |
41481 | Very slippery? |
41481 | Was anything else of value taken? |
41481 | Was there any disturbance heard from the crack? |
41481 | Was there really something to those wild yarns? |
41481 | Well, Dodd, have you experienced a change of heart? |
41481 | Well, Harlin,said the general,"Where will he strike?" |
41481 | Well, but see here, Jimmy, suppose these beetles did inhabit the antarctic continent a few million years ago, why get excited? |
41481 | Well, can you--? |
41481 | Well, what do you think of it? |
41481 | Were there any signs on the floor? |
41481 | Were these rooms locked? |
41481 | Were you ever near a rattlesnake den in the west? |
41481 | What are you trying to get at? 41481 What caused you to answer our advertisement?" |
41481 | What d''you mean? |
41481 | What floor? |
41481 | What happened next? |
41481 | What happened to you after we crashed? |
41481 | What happened? |
41481 | What is it, a crab? |
41481 | What is it? |
41481 | What is it? |
41481 | What is its nature? |
41481 | What is there here to be afraid of? |
41481 | What is this? |
41481 | What kind of a report are you going to make to the Bureau, Doctor? |
41481 | What kinda rations they give you? |
41481 | What matter? 41481 What time is it?" |
41481 | What was he trying to invent? |
41481 | What we got to do? |
41481 | What''s on your mind, Carnes? |
41481 | What''s your estimate? |
41481 | What, the one I saw you with? 41481 What? |
41481 | What? |
41481 | When was that? |
41481 | Where does it bring us out? |
41481 | Where is the king? |
41481 | Where''s that, Haidia? |
41481 | Where? 41481 Where?" |
41481 | Who are you? |
41481 | Who are you? |
41481 | Who lives in the first house to the north? |
41481 | Who lives in the next house south? |
41481 | Why does any man apply for a job? |
41481 | Why not have the Projector confiscated or destroyed by our own Government? |
41481 | Why not? |
41481 | Why? |
41481 | Will you come along? |
41481 | Will you excuse me? |
41481 | Will you speak to the public, General? |
41481 | Without unlocking any doors or taking a car, eh? 41481 Yeah? |
41481 | Yes, what''s up? |
41481 | Yes? |
41481 | You believe a madman did it? |
41481 | You believe your husband was murdered? |
41481 | You do n''t know how to open this? |
41481 | You do not approve of circus people? |
41481 | You do not think anyone is going to call for any supposed package of money at one of the most congested corners in the world in broad daylight? |
41481 | You fool,Tommy bellowed in his ear,"d''you think the south pole lies over there? |
41481 | You mean the ship was gliding down to land? |
41481 | You mean to say you actually believe that stuff you''ve been handing me? |
41481 | You mean to suggest then,I shot at him,"that two full grown men have completely vanished? |
41481 | You mean you--? |
41481 | You say you found this thing pretty nearly upon the site of the true pole? |
41481 | You second wave? |
41481 | You will join our party, little Hope? |
41481 | You''re sure you can? |
41481 | Your prisoner has no recognition signals for his own tanks? 41481 ***** Derek was saying,We have n''t much time: can you get us to the palace?" |
41481 | *****"But, John,"I protested"is there no other reason for your agitation? |
41481 | *****"Have you ever proved it?" |
41481 | *****"What do you know of this-- what''s his name?" |
41481 | A beetle? |
41481 | A new species of beetle? |
41481 | A weapon? |
41481 | Afraid of what? |
41481 | Ai n''t that pretty for you?" |
41481 | An executioner beetle, sent by Bram to summon them to the torture? |
41481 | An''th''canteen stuff--""Your tank men, they get treated fancy?" |
41481 | And as he spoke he remembered vaguely some crank who had once insisted that the two poles were hollow because-- what was the fellow''s reasoning? |
41481 | And how were they going to get out of the damn place? |
41481 | And why''s the grass red?" |
41481 | Are you afraid that in this process of becoming henchman to a king you may perchance get killed?" |
41481 | Are you familiar with fluorescein?" |
41481 | Are you interested?" |
41481 | Astounding? |
41481 | Badly hurt?" |
41481 | But even if it is, do you think that, after perfecting such a tremendous invention, the professor would commit suicide?" |
41481 | But now, what to do? |
41481 | But what could be the purpose behind this villainy? |
41481 | But where was Jim? |
41481 | CHAPTER III_ Ten Miles Underground_"What I was going to say when we were interrupted, was,''Can you beat it?''" |
41481 | CHAPTER I_ Wall Street-- or the Open Road?_ When I was some fifteen years old, I once made the remark,"Why, that''s impossible." |
41481 | CHAPTER V_ Intrigue_"Am I in time, Hope?" |
41481 | Can you get into the palace, Hope? |
41481 | Can you get us anything like that?" |
41481 | Can you place a tent at my disposal?" |
41481 | Can you walk?" |
41481 | Care to smoke? |
41481 | Carnes, how soon can we get a train back to Washington?" |
41481 | Carnes, where is that letter from the Secretary of War?" |
41481 | Derek said quietly,"Difficult to believe, Charlie? |
41481 | Derek whispered to Hope,"The toilers do n''t know of this?" |
41481 | Derek whispered,"Is that Blanca?" |
41481 | Derek, prince of this realm? |
41481 | Did you know that?" |
41481 | Did you recognize any of the body- snatchers?" |
41481 | Do I make this clear?" |
41481 | Do n''t you recognize him? |
41481 | Do n''t you see the distinguishing mark of the coleoptera, those two elytra, or wing- covers, which meet in the median dorsal line? |
41481 | Do you believe, positively, that the gardener is above suspicion?" |
41481 | Do you hear me?" |
41481 | Do you know anything about it?" |
41481 | Do you know the motive behind this affair? |
41481 | Do you know which one I am going to choose?" |
41481 | Do you realize their stupendous power, their invincibility? |
41481 | Do you see it? |
41481 | Do you think, in view of this yarn, that your experiments can wait?" |
41481 | Do you understand?" |
41481 | Do you want to right a great wrong? |
41481 | Does n''t that suggest anything?" |
41481 | Even if it did, what about Mr. Lathom? |
41481 | Ever in Chicago?" |
41481 | Got anything to smoke?" |
41481 | Guard her for me, will you?" |
41481 | Had I arrived in the other realm? |
41481 | Had they seen this attack upon Derek? |
41481 | Have you any objections?" |
41481 | Have you any special advice to give me about the guarding?" |
41481 | Have you, or can you get, any live stock?" |
41481 | He demanded of Derek again,"Who are you?" |
41481 | He did, eh? |
41481 | He got turned around and you caught him wandering about?... |
41481 | He had just dropped back into a lounging attitude when the door burst open and Clason flew into the room? |
41481 | He repeated,"Did you know that?" |
41481 | His voice rang out,"Will you obey me now? |
41481 | His voice rang out:"What are you doing? |
41481 | Hope said,"What is it, Rohbar?" |
41481 | Hope, where does Rohbar stand in this?" |
41481 | How dare you?" |
41481 | How long does it last?" |
41481 | How might he fan this feeble spark of volition to sufficient strength for decisive resistance? |
41481 | How much immediately?" |
41481 | How''d you learn it?" |
41481 | How''y''use it?" |
41481 | How, then, can puny man hope to stand against them? |
41481 | I said,"Henchman to a king?" |
41481 | I was dangling from a parachute.... By the way, where am I now?" |
41481 | I wonder whether you are worth it?" |
41481 | Impossible? |
41481 | Impossible? |
41481 | In the meantime, may I look at that gun that was found?" |
41481 | Is that all you can tell us about the death itself?" |
41481 | Is there a tank stationed at Fort Thomas?" |
41481 | Is there a telegraph office here?" |
41481 | Is there another counterfeit on the market?" |
41481 | Is there no one who might possibly benefit by putting you temporarily out of the way?" |
41481 | Is this it?" |
41481 | It is n''t finished yet, but when the general says that--""Battle?" |
41481 | It seems impossible, but has not Mrs. Darrow told us she heard this humming and saw nothing? |
41481 | May I ask what is the object of the whole thing?" |
41481 | Mrs. Darrow fell to smoothing out the folds in her house apron as Lees asked:"When was the only time you saw her?" |
41481 | Mrs. Darrow, what has happened?'' |
41481 | My trained beetles are blind-- you did n''t happen to notice I''d cut off their antenna? |
41481 | Near dawn? |
41481 | No rest?" |
41481 | Now what would Keane do? |
41481 | Now, Mrs. Darrow, how long had you lived at Brooknook? |
41481 | Odd, was n''t it, getting so much publicity after I was through needing it? |
41481 | Of what use to me an elevator, if it had been running? |
41481 | Or do you want to go down to work as usual in the subway to- morrow morning? |
41481 | Or have you?" |
41481 | Or was I still in Derek''s laboratory? |
41481 | Really, how-- you''re not injured?" |
41481 | Rescue an oppressed people, overturn the tyranny of an evil monarch, and put your friend and the girl he loves upon the throne? |
41481 | Say, where in thunder are we, Jimmy?" |
41481 | Say, you know Heine''s place?" |
41481 | Shall I?" |
41481 | Should he summon help, or go on alone? |
41481 | Space? |
41481 | Still insane upon the subject of fossil monotremes, I suppose?" |
41481 | Suppose that I should spend a hundred million of my government''s money and the purchase prove worthless? |
41481 | Suppose then, that we have an object, either animate or inanimate, the surface of which reflects only ultra- violet light, what will be the result? |
41481 | That''s clear, is n''t it?" |
41481 | The open road? |
41481 | Then a rush of questions:"What''s the matter? |
41481 | Then he asked:"How is the foreman? |
41481 | Then why did he not have it out now? |
41481 | Then why do n''t we drop to the center of the earth, you damn fool?" |
41481 | They told him he would n''t see any of them until the battle was over?... |
41481 | They were n''t taking any chances on any of our listening- posts reporting their tanks, eh?... |
41481 | Very well, go on.... How did he gas our listening- posts?... |
41481 | Walking head downward, are we? |
41481 | Was I going mad? |
41481 | Was I going mad? |
41481 | Was Keane Clason a great inventor, or a madman? |
41481 | Was he here? |
41481 | Was it reported?" |
41481 | Were these things real or imaginary? |
41481 | Were we outdoors? |
41481 | What could he do? |
41481 | What do you see now? |
41481 | What else could they be? |
41481 | What for?" |
41481 | What had I said to make them suspect me of having committed a revolting crime? |
41481 | What harm?" |
41481 | What is the floor of the cave like where we are going?" |
41481 | What killed them off? |
41481 | What matter?" |
41481 | What other fearsome monsters might inhabit that extraordinary valley? |
41481 | What right had he to put me through the third degree? |
41481 | What then? |
41481 | What will you do?" |
41481 | What''s happened to you? |
41481 | What''s happened? |
41481 | What''you doin''around here?" |
41481 | Where are the Clasons?" |
41481 | Where is Major Brown?" |
41481 | Where?" |
41481 | White? |
41481 | Who and what are you?" |
41481 | Why did I not think of it before? |
41481 | Why did n''t they cross into Australia, like the opossum, by the land bridge then existent between that continent and South America? |
41481 | Why did n''t they win the supremacy over man?" |
41481 | Why did n''t you tell me that before?" |
41481 | Why did you bring the shells, Haidia?" |
41481 | Why have n''t they survived into historic times? |
41481 | Why should anyone believe that they were the three crimson nobles whom Derek attacked with his strange ray? |
41481 | Why, of all places, had he fled down into this blind burrow? |
41481 | Why, what was this? |
41481 | Why?" |
41481 | Wildly racing through the night, missing other cars by a breath, the big, visible auto continued its pursuit of-- what? |
41481 | Will you?" |
41481 | With a benzine label for a prescription?" |
41481 | Would I go into the unknown? |
41481 | Would I go? |
41481 | Would I go? |
41481 | Would Philip prove to be a real or an imaginary scoundrel? |
41481 | Would a watchman hear me? |
41481 | Would you allow me to accompany you when you make your attempt?" |
41481 | Yeah, do n''t you get it, Jimmy? |
41481 | Yes sir, knocked me plumb down, and--""Then what happened? |
41481 | You could not have misplaced the other by any chance, could you?'' |
41481 | You have no relatives?" |
41481 | You know what the humans here live on, do n''t you?" |
41481 | You understand, of course, what color is? |
41481 | You understand?" |
41481 | You understand?" |
41481 | You will not? |
41481 | You''re ready to go to work immediately, I hope?" |
41481 | Your prisoner objects to his rations, eh? |
31168 | A human or a Robot? |
31168 | Am I crazy, or what? |
31168 | And do you want anything else? |
31168 | And he succeeded? |
31168 | And one capable of carrying passengers, would you say? |
31168 | And suppose we leave it? |
31168 | And the next move? |
31168 | And what are we going to do now? |
31168 | And what was the experiment? |
31168 | And where, would you guess, are we headed? |
31168 | And you, sir? |
31168 | And--? |
31168 | Any new suggestions? |
31168 | Are we blocked, ahead? |
31168 | Are you mad? |
31168 | But can it be possible such creatures could have produced that rocket? |
31168 | But did n''t I read something, too, about some anonymous Indian rajah who was thought to be raising money by disposing of his jewels? |
31168 | But how can you say that? |
31168 | But suppose we agree not to report it? |
31168 | But surely, my dear fellow, you do n''t connect this gigantic plot with your discovery of-- whatever it is you have discovered? |
31168 | But these curious creatures? |
31168 | But where can I go? |
31168 | But where do the Lamas figure in this? 31168 But where do we want to land? |
31168 | But who are they? 31168 But why do n''t they come after us?" |
31168 | But why is he different? |
31168 | But why not Australia, for instance? |
31168 | But why talk of anything unpleasant, when there is wealth enough here for all? 31168 But why? |
31168 | But you, Jack? 31168 By the end of the third year they had showed Dad how to make one of those metal things--""Like that one that jumped at me?" |
31168 | Ca n''t you see me? |
31168 | Can they be invisible? |
31168 | Can we get there? |
31168 | Can you make it, do you think? |
31168 | Cremation? |
31168 | Davis Island? |
31168 | Dead... these twenty years? |
31168 | Did you hear that? |
31168 | Do n''t you fear him-- just a little, Migul? 31168 Do n''t you hear me?" |
31168 | Do you believe that, Migul? |
31168 | Do you mean this girl? |
31168 | Do you mean to say nothing further is to be done here-- that the disintegrator will work without any attention? |
31168 | Do you mean you intend to kill us? |
31168 | Do you think you can ever check our speed? |
31168 | Do you understand me? |
31168 | Do you want to see Xantra now? |
31168 | Does it look likely? |
31168 | Ever take any pre- law courses on how to work the invisible controls of a space ship? |
31168 | From whence came those sounds, Priest? |
31168 | George? 31168 Give us a ride, will you? |
31168 | Granted it does,--a little impatiently--"but did it ever occur to you that where there''s smoke, there''s fire? |
31168 | Have you any idea what composition this stuff is? |
31168 | Have you ever looked at Mars through a good telescope? |
31168 | How are you, Professor-- all right? |
31168 | How are you, old man? |
31168 | How long ago? |
31168 | How many of them are there on this ship: and how many like Xantra? |
31168 | How the devil could you, till I told you? 31168 How''s that?" |
31168 | In Siberia, in Brazil-- but why bore you with the multiplication of my now useless wealth? 31168 Is it locked, Migul?" |
31168 | Is it you-- or your ghost? |
31168 | Is the man from 1935 with Tugh and the Princess? |
31168 | Is this the fellow? |
31168 | Just how does it happen,he asked,"that you know so much about things here?" |
31168 | Killed him? |
31168 | Mars? |
31168 | Migul, can you hear me? |
31168 | Not here? 31168 Now what the devil will be the next step?" |
31168 | Now where the devil would you say we are? |
31168 | Now, then, are you coming back with me and have a look at my Diamond Thunderbolt, or am I going back alone? |
31168 | O divine Shabako,he questioned shrilly,"who is this stranger?" |
31168 | Of course,he explained patiently,"and what if they are? |
31168 | Radio for warships, eh? |
31168 | Ready? |
31168 | See here, you birds,he addressed the Cossacks,"where is he, eh?" |
31168 | Shall we go now? 31168 So we''re going to have a moon? |
31168 | Solar disintegrating machine? |
31168 | Something you want me to do? |
31168 | Suppose you_ do_ wipe out all the machines in this particular vicinity, wo n''t there be tremendous numbers left all through the Equatorial Belt? |
31168 | The flicker of green that stopped the signals, and the green fire that got us-- what can they mean? |
31168 | Then she is with him? |
31168 | Then what are we going to do? 31168 Then what''s the odds?" |
31168 | Then-- then you reached the top? |
31168 | There-- what? |
31168 | Tina, ca n''t we--"Follow them? |
31168 | Us? |
31168 | We-- we''ve said already all there is to say, have n''t we? |
31168 | Well what? |
31168 | Well? |
31168 | What about this island? 31168 What are you talking about?" |
31168 | What can they be?--or who? |
31168 | What do you mean, cremation? |
31168 | What do you propose to do-- murder us? |
31168 | What do you say? |
31168 | What happened, Migul? 31168 What is it?" |
31168 | What is that plan you spoke of, Keston, for reconquering the earth from the machines? |
31168 | What is this? 31168 What is thy name-- and why did he slay thy companion?" |
31168 | What then? |
31168 | What was the thing? |
31168 | What was your hunch, and how did it come to lead you here? |
31168 | What would anyone want with warships on Davis Island? |
31168 | What you t''ank? |
31168 | What''s happened? |
31168 | What''s happening here? |
31168 | What''s that? |
31168 | What''s the matter, Migul? |
31168 | What, gentlemen-- you have no further curiosity about me? 31168 What-- what is it?" |
31168 | When? 31168 Where are you hit? |
31168 | Where are you? |
31168 | Where can we hide? |
31168 | Where does he drive us? |
31168 | Where does this go, Migul? |
31168 | Where is the man? |
31168 | Where? 31168 Who are these slaves you keep mentioning?" |
31168 | Who art thou to come thus into the Temple, calling thyself Shabako-- Shabako, who has been dead these twenty years? |
31168 | Who art thou? |
31168 | Who said we were going to melt the entire glacier? 31168 Why give me up for anything so unpleasant?" |
31168 | Why is he different? |
31168 | Why mince matters? 31168 Why not?" |
31168 | Why not? |
31168 | Wo n''t the instrument show anything, Tina? |
31168 | You are sure Tugh can not open it? 31168 You did n''t think we were going to live here in this fashion the rest of our lives? |
31168 | You found them here? |
31168 | You know me? |
31168 | You see where we are? |
31168 | You think so? |
31168 | You want to know about what happened to the machine monsters? |
31168 | You will have tea, my friends? 31168 You will kill Tugh?" |
31168 | You will kill him? 31168 You''ll take us, understand? |
31168 | You''ve completed it at last? 31168 You-- you say you are--?" |
31168 | ( a) Has it not been proven actually and mathematically that the explosions of rockets and expanding gases are even more powerful in space? |
31168 | ***** Staggering to his feet a moment later, bruised and shaken, Stoddard gasped out:"Professor are you there? |
31168 | ***** What was this? |
31168 | A little more, now; and Clee would be able to take the disk out; but would the slaves restrain themselves until then? |
31168 | A man''s voice answered,"You are a human? |
31168 | Am I not Shabako? |
31168 | Am I not he who twenty years ago-- as the High Priest says-- pursued the priestess and her lover into the land of ice? |
31168 | Am I not the man who ruled thee? |
31168 | And Abud, the obedient dull- wit again? |
31168 | And did the green fire get him?" |
31168 | And finally said laboriously:"Who-- who art thou?" |
31168 | And he repeated Craig''s question:"Who art thou?" |
31168 | And how could the Dark Moon receive the light that it did? |
31168 | And it works?" |
31168 | And month after succeeding month their memory would fade from the minds of those who had loved them, while they would be-- where?... |
31168 | And what fate lay in store for him? |
31168 | And what is the matter with reprints? |
31168 | And what is the result? |
31168 | And why did the glowing needle point at Mars? |
31168 | And you say you have n''t any clothes? |
31168 | And you?" |
31168 | And you?" |
31168 | Are you all right?" |
31168 | But how about Keston? |
31168 | But how? |
31168 | But how? |
31168 | But how? |
31168 | But of what use would that be? |
31168 | But the Pharaoh Shabako''s eyes were only wrathful, and he shouted:"A god? |
31168 | But to what destination was he going? |
31168 | But what has happened to Cummings? |
31168 | But where were they? |
31168 | But where?" |
31168 | But why not foresee the demand of your Readers and have a few stories by R. F. Starzl? |
31168 | But why not? |
31168 | But....""But what?" |
31168 | By the way, did n''t I notice a rather heated argument going on in"The Readers''Corner"about reprints? |
31168 | Ca n''t the covers be more like those on the March, May, June and July, 1930, issues? |
31168 | Ca n''t you manage to get next month''s issue out a little earlier, Mr. Bates? |
31168 | Ca n''t you see that he is a throwback, lost in this world of science and machines? |
31168 | Can you do that? |
31168 | Can you prove your statement?" |
31168 | Could a Robot lie? |
31168 | Could you follow him to where he is now?" |
31168 | Dared I remain? |
31168 | Did he know I was in here? |
31168 | Did you ever have a hunch, Professor? |
31168 | Do n''t let me catch you prowling around, d''you hear? |
31168 | Do n''t you desire that, Migul?" |
31168 | Do n''t you see where we are? |
31168 | Do n''t you?" |
31168 | Do you know?" |
31168 | Do you think with your sub- human minds to overcome one of the Tillas, Masters of the Universe? |
31168 | Do you understand? |
31168 | Does he want us for slaves?" |
31168 | Does the author mean to say that the explosions of the tubes have to have something to push against to have any action? |
31168 | Feel the vibrations?" |
31168 | First, why not take a vote on the quarterly idea? |
31168 | Had Migul returned here and gone back to Mary? |
31168 | Had they got away or were they hiding somewhere? |
31168 | Has she the strength?" |
31168 | Hast thou the other, too?" |
31168 | Have n''t you yet?" |
31168 | Have you ever noticed that 99% of Edmond Hamilton''s stories have the same plot as"Monsters of Mars"? |
31168 | Have you got anything sharp? |
31168 | He bowed with mock gravity and said,"How do you do, Miss Helen Hunter?" |
31168 | He kept peering at the place pointed out, at a spot of black even darker than the inky sky; or did he only imagine it was darker? |
31168 | He looks much like a man; he is some kind of a man; but he''s not from Earth--""You''ve_ seen_ him?" |
31168 | His mind framed the question,"What will I be in a moment from now?" |
31168 | How about it? |
31168 | How come you there? |
31168 | How did that happen?" |
31168 | How do we know what state we were in?" |
31168 | How does the author calculate that in"Beyond The Vanishing Point"? |
31168 | How had these warm- blooded people come to the far north? |
31168 | How would you care to make a little scientific expedition to Mars, say?" |
31168 | Human beings--? |
31168 | I said once more,"You are sure Tugh can not do this?" |
31168 | I''m boss, do you understand?" |
31168 | If Migul can lead us...."I added,"Migul, could you follow Tugh? |
31168 | In the second place, even if we could, the whole world would be overwhelmed, and then where would we be?" |
31168 | Is n''t an eight and nine- page section a bit too much? |
31168 | Is n''t that so?" |
31168 | Is n''t there some way to get back to the top of the Glacier?" |
31168 | Is n''t this a grand old world? |
31168 | Is the_ Micrad_ coming?" |
31168 | Is this not the priestess, Taia?" |
31168 | It is but an example of our modern progress, is it not?" |
31168 | It was cruel, but he was a god; and who was to question the will of a god? |
31168 | Know how an explosive force would react in space? |
31168 | Mechanically Clee asked:"Who are you?" |
31168 | Men? |
31168 | Might not the violently expanding gases fly forth from an exhaust vent to expand instantly, frictionlessly and impotently to the ends of the universe? |
31168 | Migul, where did he take her? |
31168 | Mum''s the word-- right?" |
31168 | Now then, how do they steer this thing? |
31168 | Of course, it can be improved-- but what ca n''t? |
31168 | Or how about the sun? |
31168 | Or perhaps you would prefer whiskey and soda?" |
31168 | Right now?" |
31168 | See?" |
31168 | Shabako, he saw, really believed the superstition- conceived story he had just spun, so-- now what? |
31168 | Shall we try it?" |
31168 | Smell it?" |
31168 | So you were the brainy ones, eh? |
31168 | Something with an edge on it?" |
31168 | Take me with thee to-- to thy-- heaven.... Canst thou not-- take-- Taia?" |
31168 | The big machine on the mountain? |
31168 | The green flashes? |
31168 | The metal thing that jumps about like a grasshopper? |
31168 | The question now is, who''s back of this thing? |
31168 | The snow people? |
31168 | Their origin? |
31168 | Then the clear, sweet voice, serious again, replied,"So you swam ashore from the boat I signaled?" |
31168 | There were lost seconds while she desperately fumbled, and Larry pleaded:"Tina, dear, what''s the matter?" |
31168 | There''s only enough for a meal or two; and then what will you do?" |
31168 | They were thought to be synthetic, were they not?" |
31168 | Time- Traveler:"Say, Sulsu- D-9, has Astounding Stories brought out a Quarterly yet?" |
31168 | To which one-- near which one were they going? |
31168 | Vanished, sayest thou? |
31168 | Was Tugh in there? |
31168 | Was Tugh lurking here, waiting for me to raise myself above this opening? |
31168 | Was he coming forward? |
31168 | Was he creeping up on me? |
31168 | Was the Robot lying to me? |
31168 | Was there some legend back of it? |
31168 | Was there truth after all in those persistent rumors of the natives about the snow people who inhabited the upper slopes of the Himalayas? |
31168 | Well?" |
31168 | Were their words understood? |
31168 | Were we headed for the End? |
31168 | What connection did this great device have with the signal of distress from the cliff, and the green fire that had destroyed the_ Virginia_? |
31168 | What could they do? |
31168 | What did they mean by endangering the lives of everyone, with their damned contraption? |
31168 | What do you propose to do with us, now that you have us in your power?" |
31168 | What do you want me to do?" |
31168 | What had started the disintegrator in the dead of night? |
31168 | What is that old saying about the best articles not being always in the best wrapped parcels? |
31168 | What is their origin? |
31168 | What is this matter so grave that it has led you to disturb us at our pleasures?" |
31168 | What madness has seized you? |
31168 | What makes them the monsters they have become?" |
31168 | What manner of man was this? |
31168 | What penalty must she pay?" |
31168 | What was the meaning of the gleaming ring and needle? |
31168 | What was there to be done now? |
31168 | What would you say if I told you that I have solved even_ that_ problem? |
31168 | What''s it all about? |
31168 | What''s that?" |
31168 | What''s this?_"][ Sidenote: Locked in a rocket and fired into space!--such was the fate which awaited young Stoddard at the end of the diamond trail!] |
31168 | When will you tell the Council?" |
31168 | Where could we hide from the machines?" |
31168 | Where did they live? |
31168 | Where did you find them?" |
31168 | Where had they come from? |
31168 | Where is Ay?" |
31168 | Where is it-- Cape Cod, you want to be let off, Miss Gray?... |
31168 | Where is the girl?" |
31168 | Where was Migul now? |
31168 | Where was Tugh to meet those Robot leaders?" |
31168 | Where was she going? |
31168 | Where was the Editor when this blew in? |
31168 | Where was young Jack Stoddard, official geologist and crack mountaineer of the party? |
31168 | Where would that be?" |
31168 | Who are you to demand anything from us? |
31168 | Who are you?" |
31168 | Who are you?" |
31168 | Who art thou?" |
31168 | Who knows?" |
31168 | Who were these strange visitors? |
31168 | Why are they so small, so pale?" |
31168 | Why ca n''t Readers be reasonable? |
31168 | Why did n''t someone come out of the ship? |
31168 | Why did n''t something happen? |
31168 | Why had it been called that? |
31168 | Why not limit it to a maximum of, say, five pages? |
31168 | Why, the god Aten was the Sun God!--the divinity Egypt worshipped in five hundred B.C.? |
31168 | Why? |
31168 | Will some other kind Reader endeavor to explain it to me? |
31168 | Will you be more quick with him?" |
31168 | Will you kill him if we find him?" |
31168 | Will you protect me?" |
31168 | Will you thank your Authors for me for the very many hours of interesting reading they have given me during the past twelve months? |
31168 | Will you? |
31168 | Within a moment we were flashing off into the great stream of Time....*****"You think he has gone forward into the future?" |
31168 | Would I ever see my friend again? |
31168 | Would he fire through the doorway, or appear abruptly at the window? |
31168 | Would it respond? |
31168 | Would she prevail? |
31168 | Would they ever return to their Earth again? |
31168 | You are not sociable, after enjoying my hospitality, my transportation? |
31168 | You can understand, yes?" |
31168 | You have heard of me, perhaps?" |
31168 | You know anything about it?" |
31168 | You think I, a nobleman, am interested in the masses? |
31168 | You''ve noticed the lumps on the back of your necks? |
31168 | Your knife? |
31168 | _ Covers Too Imaginative?_ Dear Editor: For crying out loud, why ca n''t everyone be satisfied! |
31168 | _ Expert Opinion_ Dear Editor: May I express my pleasure and gratification in your worthy magazine? |
31168 | _ Heroes Too Heroic?_ Dear Editor: I wrote you a letter last month. |
31168 | crackled in his brain with almost a physical effort,"do you think to resist Xantra? |
30691 | ''How are you feeling now, Green?'' 30691 A slave of a pile of flesh that you must feed and protect from the agonies that attack it on every side? |
30691 | A what? |
30691 | About the crown which probably is still lying on the altar there? |
30691 | Ah, I am to be sacrificed, eh? 30691 Aimu? |
30691 | Am I not your nephew? 30691 Am I still asleep?" |
30691 | And do you think the Duca and all the caciques will go with the apes? |
30691 | And now,he shot out, eyeing the young man through narrowed lids,"will you please state the purpose of this visit?" |
30691 | And what will happen to me, and to the girls, if I decline? |
30691 | And what,Kirby asked exultantly,"does the Duca say?" |
30691 | And yet, is it? 30691 And yet,"she went on for him,"you do not believe he would have conceded what he has, unless he intends to make trouble?" |
30691 | And you ca n''t find out what we must rescue Naida_ from_? |
30691 | And you do not know what the cylinder is? 30691 And you say you have no close relatives, no ties of any sort to interfere with work that is dangerous-- and something else?" |
30691 | And-- and nothing has happened to you? |
30691 | And-- and we can do nothing? |
30691 | Any possible hope? |
30691 | Are we down- hearted? |
30691 | Are we really in such a contraption? |
30691 | Are you able to run? |
30691 | Are you all right? |
30691 | Are you asking_ me_, to my face, whether I will listen to terms which you offer as self- styled victor of a battle with my caciques? |
30691 | But Naida, whatever is there about this fragment of gold to startle you as it does? |
30691 | But am I to be deprived of my retreat, left here like a common dog amongst other dogs, while these accursed fiends starve slowly to death? 30691 But do you mean to say that you and I are no more than a mosquito, a malaria protozoan, or even one of those trees in the jungle?" |
30691 | But do you not remember that I said I had_ not_ come here because you summoned me? |
30691 | But how can I find this jungle village without a guide? |
30691 | But tell me, Aña, how did you get here? |
30691 | But there is no food in the tower, is there? |
30691 | But what could I have been thinking about except how you looked when we came together in that gloomy place, and walked forward, side by side? 30691 But which direction did they take?" |
30691 | But who are your parents, and how did you get among the Ungapuks? |
30691 | But who could have done it? |
30691 | But why did n''t you kill him, as you killed the others? 30691 But why do you think you can be of assistance to me?" |
30691 | But why,he asked in whispers of his fellow- prisoner,"--why this open hatred of us? |
30691 | But, what is it? |
30691 | But,said Karl, thinking aloud rather than meaning to interrupt,"what has all this to do with me? |
30691 | But_ why_? |
30691 | Ca n''t you stay by me until time to land? 30691 Can you find the entrance?" |
30691 | Can you tell where or how he will strike at us? |
30691 | Can you withstand shock? |
30691 | Did you find out anything? |
30691 | Did you plan this monstrous thing? |
30691 | Did you see what happened to the divers yesterday? |
30691 | Do n''t you see? |
30691 | Do we_ see_? |
30691 | Do you know where the villages of the ape- people are? |
30691 | Do you mean me to understand that you can reduce a living body to its basic elements and then rebuild these elements into a remade man? |
30691 | Do you mean the one where they used to smuggle aliens? 30691 Do you mean to tell me you know so little of your world as that? |
30691 | Do you mind if I take it for a moment? |
30691 | Do you realize what it means to our cause that it should have been returned to us in this way? |
30691 | Do you see what he has there? |
30691 | Do you speak of Sir Basil Addington? |
30691 | Do you think-- do you suppose--? |
30691 | Do you want to die? |
30691 | Does anyone think we ought to try the tunnels now? |
30691 | Does that help? |
30691 | Eighty fathoms? 30691 Has Captain Starley told that story to anyone else yet?" |
30691 | Has he the triangular brand? |
30691 | Has no one learned to use these weapons? |
30691 | Have you any idea of what all this means? |
30691 | Have you got any puff balls? |
30691 | Holy One,exclaimed a new priest in answer to the urge to fight,"what can we do against the golden haired fiend? |
30691 | How can I call you? |
30691 | How could you tell? |
30691 | How long can you remain under water in it? |
30691 | How much did you say they had? |
30691 | How much farther,he asked in a voice which became sharp,"until we reach the headquarters of these caciques?" |
30691 | How''ll you know he''s there at the time? |
30691 | I suppose that they are weapons of the sort you used against the ape- men this morning? |
30691 | I suppose,he said,"that anyone who was responsible for the return of the cylinder to its rightful owners, would be held in some respect?" |
30691 | If we both went, who would work the air to let us back in? 30691 Is it Naida you are called?" |
30691 | Is it time to tell him yet, Naida? |
30691 | Is n''t it a shame, Hale,she moaned,"that the fire burned all the animals and insects, the machinery, and even your notes?" |
30691 | Is that all they do to you? |
30691 | Is there anyone else who cares to fight? |
30691 | It''s gone? |
30691 | Made you? 30691 Might it not have been stolen before the vessel sank?" |
30691 | More nonsense,said Sykes;"and probably correct.... Well, what are we to do?--sit tight and give them as little information as we can? |
30691 | My father? |
30691 | Naida, do you mean to tell me that Quetzalcoatl was not simply a mythical monster, but an actual, living serpent which is alive_ now_? |
30691 | Naida,he exclaimed,"do you know what those are?" |
30691 | Naida? |
30691 | Nini, will you go? |
30691 | No? |
30691 | No? |
30691 | Now what do you think about that? |
30691 | Now what in the hell ever got into his crazy head? |
30691 | Now? |
30691 | Oh, you wonder, eh? |
30691 | On-- on the day of our union? |
30691 | Or do we take it when it comes and fight with what we''ve got as long as we can? 30691 Quartz or glass?--what are they made of? |
30691 | Quartz? |
30691 | Rocket car? 30691 Saranoff?" |
30691 | See those floodlights fastened to the cliff so that their beams will sweep across the mouth of the tunnel when they are lighted? |
30691 | Sir Basil Addington? |
30691 | So? 30691 Some miracle of power that will drive a fleet through space as they have done, to battle with the enemy on his own ground--"Could he help? |
30691 | Startling, is n''t it? 30691 Still,"asked General Clinton coldly,"for what purpose do you wish to be relieved? |
30691 | Tell me,he said to her:"do you yourself believe that this Serpent has the powers of a God?" |
30691 | That? |
30691 | The Young Labor party? 30691 The trochosphere? |
30691 | Then where am I, and who are you? |
30691 | There is to be no more fighting? |
30691 | Think so? 30691 This vessel?" |
30691 | To live-- and be a slave of_ this_? |
30691 | Uncle Rudolph? |
30691 | Under what conditions am I to leave? |
30691 | Was this steel door part of your work? |
30691 | We''re here,he said,"but how can we get up?" |
30691 | Well,he asked,"how about to- morrow, and the next day, and the next? |
30691 | Well? |
30691 | What about that creature we saw in the cave, Doctor? 30691 What are those big bundles fastened to the lower limbs?" |
30691 | What are you thinking about? |
30691 | What caused that? |
30691 | What depth are we? |
30691 | What did you change? |
30691 | What do you mean? |
30691 | What do you want? |
30691 | What does this mean? |
30691 | What is it, Doctor? |
30691 | What is it, Hale? |
30691 | What is it, Ivana? 30691 What is it?" |
30691 | What is that? |
30691 | What is this, Naida? |
30691 | What is your object in going down, if I may ask? |
30691 | What shall we do with him, Aña? |
30691 | What was it, then? |
30691 | What''s that? 30691 What''s the trouble, a flood of new counterfeits?" |
30691 | What''s this? 30691 What, then, do you suggest that we do next?" |
30691 | What,asked Kirby,"is this need which made one of you cut my rope, so that I should come here?" |
30691 | When do you think he will make a move to start trouble? |
30691 | When will you have us start? |
30691 | Whence came it? |
30691 | Where did they get it? |
30691 | Where did you get this thing which you call''a fragment of gold''? |
30691 | Where have you been hiding and why have n''t you reported the fact of your rescue to the proper authorities? 30691 Where have you been these twenty- three years, Peter Van Dorn?" |
30691 | Where is Aña? |
30691 | Where is Sir Basil? |
30691 | Where is he? |
30691 | Where to? |
30691 | Who are you, Aña? |
30691 | Who are you? |
30691 | Who have you lived with, I mean? |
30691 | Who is it? |
30691 | Who was the leader? |
30691 | Why all the dirty looks? 30691 Why did n''t you examine it closer?" |
30691 | Why did you lie? |
30691 | Why is n''t it? |
30691 | Why not starve them out, O Holy One? |
30691 | Why not? |
30691 | Why not? |
30691 | Why not? |
30691 | Why not? |
30691 | Why? |
30691 | Why? |
30691 | Will you finish telling me,he asked of Naida,"about the task I am to perform for you here?" |
30691 | Wo n''t that be rather risky for the cutter? |
30691 | Would n''t you like to know? 30691 Would you like to see how life springs from a wedding of matter, energy, and consciousness?" |
30691 | Yes, but do you believe the Serpent is God? |
30691 | Yes; do n''t you? 30691 Yes?" |
30691 | Yes? |
30691 | You are very strong, are you not? |
30691 | You do n''t think I overlooked that, do you? 30691 You do n''t think they''re going to stay here, do you?" |
30691 | You mean I am to lead a revolt,he asked,"against these same caciques whom we are going now to face?" |
30691 | You mean I''m under arrest? |
30691 | You mean we are out in the open-- traveling in space-- to the Moon perhaps? |
30691 | You said the_ Arethusa_? 30691 You say I can see atoms?" |
30691 | You understand? |
30691 | You''ve been kept completely ignorant? |
30691 | Your son? |
30691 | Your turn for what, Aña? |
30691 | _ What?_Still kneeling half in fun, half in sincere reverence, Naida held out the precious, potent cylinder of gold. |
30691 | _ What_ is it, Naida? |
30691 | ''What''s the matter with you? |
30691 | ***** How many had they brought down? |
30691 | ***** Professor Sykes''eyes showed his appreciation of a spirit that could still dare to hope, but he asked dejectedly:"Escape? |
30691 | *****"But suppose your lifting cable should break?" |
30691 | A landing would be easy, for had not the voice instructed him in the use of the gravity- energy? |
30691 | Always to live amongst the wearers of the purple? |
30691 | Am I not really cursed as you''ve maintained? |
30691 | And then, I wonder if it is safe to let him go, hating me? |
30691 | And what is life? |
30691 | And who the devil are you?" |
30691 | And why?" |
30691 | Anything come of it?" |
30691 | Are we going to allow it?" |
30691 | Are you afraid your sea serpent will get us?'' |
30691 | Are you following me?" |
30691 | Are you going to put out a quarterly? |
30691 | Are you kidding me?" |
30691 | Are you ready?" |
30691 | Are you with us?" |
30691 | At last he said:"And what of you and I, Sir Basil? |
30691 | At last the young man cried out:"How did you breed these freaks?" |
30691 | Bird?" |
30691 | But do you mean that you never knew your sacred cylinder was so close to you all these years?" |
30691 | But first--""What?" |
30691 | But how is the Zar to be overcome? |
30691 | But was there an exception? |
30691 | But what did it matter? |
30691 | But what did it matter? |
30691 | But what did it matter? |
30691 | But what happens until that time comes? |
30691 | But where to?" |
30691 | But who were these people of the valley? |
30691 | But why should it not seem so, at this distance within the earth? |
30691 | But, who the devil is Winslow?" |
30691 | But-- Well, are both of_ you_ all right? |
30691 | But-- but-- Oh my God, Boynton, do you mean that they''ve got it?--that it will drive us through space?" |
30691 | Ca n''t you see the horror of it as nature works? |
30691 | Can I help you?" |
30691 | Can you leave the globe while it is under water?" |
30691 | Did my messenger tell you why we are here and demand your presence?" |
30691 | Did this station send where he was hoping? |
30691 | Do n''t you think your author ought to brush up on his astronomy? |
30691 | Do you consent to listen to Naida''s and my terms? |
30691 | Do you intend to print an Annual or Quarterly, or do think you will ever enlarge the size of this magazine? |
30691 | Do you realize this is your_ wedding_ day, and that you''re acting as if there was nothing to be done?" |
30691 | Do you understand me? |
30691 | Do you understand? |
30691 | Do you want to see Aña now?" |
30691 | Does a woman destroy a dress when she rips it up to make it over?" |
30691 | Even if the jungle is terrible, were you not born with courage? |
30691 | Fifteen? |
30691 | Had the face been real or a dream? |
30691 | Have n''t you guessed by now what I am getting ready to do?" |
30691 | Have you been making love to Aña again, after my warning to you?" |
30691 | Have you never read anything? |
30691 | Have_ you_ been eating it?" |
30691 | He a king? |
30691 | Hopeless? |
30691 | How could Cor speak English? |
30691 | How did they get here?" |
30691 | How do you think a white woman could appear in a tribe of Indians who live in the jungle, many weeks''journey from what you call civilization?" |
30691 | How high could they ascend?_ From one of the planes he saw the world below; the ships were near their ceiling; this was the limit of their climb. |
30691 | How much could he comprehend? |
30691 | How will we use it for travelling through space?" |
30691 | How will you apply it? |
30691 | I suppose you could find the entrance which was sealed up?" |
30691 | In Heaven''s name, how many were there? |
30691 | In the first place, must you make your covers as lurid and as contradictory to good design as they are? |
30691 | Is he dead?" |
30691 | Is there_ anything_ we can do?" |
30691 | Just what does that mean?" |
30691 | Large thought, eh, sweetheart?" |
30691 | Last question of all: had the beautiful girl''s face he believed he had seen just once, been real or an hallucination? |
30691 | May we not, then, go to the temple? |
30691 | Mitchell?'' |
30691 | Moon men?" |
30691 | My birthright-- where is it?" |
30691 | Naida, is this high priest we''re waiting for, the one who proposed sacrifice of some of you to the apes?" |
30691 | No life could survive these vibrations of destruction? |
30691 | Oh, what are they planning? |
30691 | Oh, what does it mean?" |
30691 | Once he asked:"If this man had died naturally, could you have brought him back to life?" |
30691 | Or was it his own fault? |
30691 | Pretty cocky, are n''t you? |
30691 | Radium? |
30691 | See that jupati tree by the rock disappear?" |
30691 | See, Unani Assu? |
30691 | Shall we go on?--make a break for it?" |
30691 | Shall we, too, be caught in this wholesale destruction?" |
30691 | Sixteen? |
30691 | Suddenly he wheeled on Hale and asked sharply,"How are your nerves, young man?" |
30691 | Suddenly the scientist threw up his hand and cried:"You see? |
30691 | Suicide? |
30691 | Tell me, may I hope that it will be so-- to- morrow?" |
30691 | The Serpent comes out of his chasm and--""What chasm?" |
30691 | The news broadcasts, the thought exchangers-- don''t you follow them at all?" |
30691 | Then what? |
30691 | Then--"But what the devil is it all about?" |
30691 | Through every corner of the earth where life lurks, they would reach?" |
30691 | To Sir Basil he said:"But if all life disappears from the earth, what shall we do for food-- you, Aña, and I?" |
30691 | To be responsible for the welfare of half the world? |
30691 | Understand? |
30691 | Was he in another world? |
30691 | Was there one little thing that he could do to apply their knowledge to practical ends? |
30691 | Was this the station that had communicated with the ship that had hovered above their flying field in that far- off land? |
30691 | Was this, as he believed, a signal to come not only to the edge of the orifice,_ but to lower himself down into its depths_? |
30691 | What are they going to do to her?" |
30691 | What can I do for you?" |
30691 | What do you intend to do?" |
30691 | What do you mean?" |
30691 | What do you think of that?" |
30691 | What does she say? |
30691 | What hope for them here? |
30691 | What is food? |
30691 | What is it you wish of Aimu? |
30691 | What is it you wish of the Ungapuks?" |
30691 | What is the length of their day? |
30691 | What is your answer?" |
30691 | What kind of man was this that Boynton had sent him? |
30691 | What more do you want?" |
30691 | What next? |
30691 | What of their deadliness?_ And again he was seated in a plane, and he was firing tiny bullets from a tiny gun. |
30691 | What possible animus can they have against the earth or its people?" |
30691 | What possible crime could he have committed? |
30691 | What power had he to vision the idea- pictures in the other''s mind? |
30691 | What was there about the putrid yet gorgeous perfume that had made the stallion go off his nut, so to speak? |
30691 | Where is Naida? |
30691 | Who had made the beautiful footprints beside him, when he had slept at last after his arrival here? |
30691 | Who had taken them? |
30691 | Who knew how much of such feeling was read by these keen- eyed observers? |
30691 | Who says civilization is going down, when the future holds men like that? |
30691 | Who''s my father?" |
30691 | Why ca n''t they make their stories logical? |
30691 | Why ca n''t they think of something original? |
30691 | Why did he let you go, knowing that you would give the alarm?" |
30691 | Why does the government of this Zar want me?" |
30691 | Why else should I have sent for you?" |
30691 | Why had eleven Mexican bandits refused to advance even to within decent rifle range of the canyon''s mouth? |
30691 | Why had someone scratched a line in the earth from him directly to the distant orifice of the geyser? |
30691 | Why labor day after day at the oxygen generators to give them the fresh air they breathe?" |
30691 | Why not Venus or Mercury? |
30691 | Why not eat his food?" |
30691 | Why will it be that?" |
30691 | Why work out our lives down here so they can live in the lap of luxury over our heads? |
30691 | Why-- why, do you know what you are offering us? |
30691 | Why?" |
30691 | Will you love me as I have learned to love you during this single day in Paradise?" |
30691 | Will you sit over there by Aña and wait? |
30691 | Will you, Naida? |
30691 | Will you, please?" |
30691 | Wo n''t it hatch into another terror of the sea like the thing that destroyed the ship?" |
30691 | Wo n''t you tell me your name?" |
30691 | Would it reach? |
30691 | Would there be anyone to hear? |
30691 | You can? |
30691 | You do n''t mean it, do you?" |
30691 | You do not believe it was Quetzalcoatl''s pleasure over the great diamond which made him cease preying on your people?" |
30691 | You have no cause to love him, have you?" |
30691 | You''ve got us here as prisoners-- now what do you expect us to do? |
30691 | Zar Peter? |
30691 | _ And did they fight with gas? |
30691 | _ But on the ground below-- what fortifications? |
30691 | _ Now_ have I told you enough?" |
30691 | _ What of Earth''s armies and their means of defense?_ Vaguely he sensed the demand, and without conscious volition he responded. |
30691 | he exclaimed,"Mac radioed us from Venus; is there anything impossible after that?" |
30124 | Accidentally, or were they put out? |
30124 | And now what''s Hay''s mission? |
30124 | And now what, Captain? |
30124 | Anything been happening at the front, sir? |
30124 | Are n''t you glad we won through? |
30124 | Are you sure, Hemmy? |
30124 | Are you sure? |
30124 | Ask Wells about that, why do n''t you? 30124 Atlantean?" |
30124 | Bob? 30124 But methinks thou art in need of food and sustenance?" |
30124 | But what can they do? |
30124 | But what,he wondered, as he stopped the helicopters,"did he mean by''give a_ last_ handshake''?" |
30124 | But where does this steam come from? 30124 But why did you look that way?" |
30124 | But,put in Lance,"how do the torpedoes fly? |
30124 | But-- but, are you a prisoner? |
30124 | But-- but--he exclaimed,"how the devil could he do that?" |
30124 | But-- how did I do it? |
30124 | But-- what about Hemmy Bowman? |
30124 | Captain? 30124 Captain?" |
30124 | Could they see it coming? |
30124 | Days? 30124 Days?" |
30124 | Did that shock--? |
30124 | Did you have the car wait? |
30124 | Did you know that the model of the Breslau gun had been stolen? |
30124 | Did you see his dead body? |
30124 | Do n''t you think that this is the end of it, Doctor? |
30124 | Do short waves fog glass, Doctor? |
30124 | Do you feel perfectly normal now? |
30124 | Do you recognize the photo? |
30124 | Do you want them to get us with their paralyzing ray? |
30124 | Dost thou realize what would hang upon thy skill? 30124 Enemies?" |
30124 | Everybody with me? |
30124 | Everything right? |
30124 | Fog? |
30124 | God, Keith, what_ is_ it? |
30124 | Got it? |
30124 | Got the depth charge ready, Keith? 30124 Graham, you there?" |
30124 | Have they been moved there recently? |
30124 | Have ye heard? 30124 Heliopolis? |
30124 | Heliopolis? |
30124 | Hemmy? |
30124 | Hero Giles Hudson begs thy pardon,he said,"but methought thou spoke in the language of Sir Henry Hudson, my ancestor?" |
30124 | Home? |
30124 | How are they treating him? |
30124 | How did you get word that you were to be rescued from Atlanta? |
30124 | How do we know that he did n''t? 30124 How do you mean, sir?" |
30124 | How does she know? |
30124 | How high are we? |
30124 | How many of them are there, Mac? 30124 How wilt thou manage thy curious weapon?" |
30124 | How-- how did they wipe you out to- day? |
30124 | How? 30124 Huh?" |
30124 | Hurt, sir? |
30124 | I wonder if he''s still alive? |
30124 | I wonder what deviltry they''re cooking up? |
30124 | I wonder what he''ll hatch up to combat our helmet- lights? 30124 I wonder where they''ve taken Alden?" |
30124 | I would know why the all powerful Wanderer, of whom thou makest so much, did not rescue Princess Altara? |
30124 | I''m not much of an artilleryman, but I''m wondering how you take up the recoil? |
30124 | Impossible? 30124 Is Saranoff alive?" |
30124 | Is he coming to the United States? |
30124 | Is he in the United States? |
30124 | Is that an isolated building? |
30124 | Is there a black lamp at that gun platform? |
30124 | Is there no defence against them? |
30124 | It does seem funny, does n''t it, Wells? |
30124 | It''s obvious, Colonel: how did the Slavs know we were going to raid that comparatively unimportant base of theirs at such and such a time? 30124 Ivan Karuska,"he said slowly and distinctly,"do you hear me?" |
30124 | Ivan Karuska,repeated Dr. Bird,"do you hear me?" |
30124 | Jarmuth? |
30124 | Just why the hell,he muttered,"did I ever join the Navy?" |
30124 | Keith? 30124 Knapp?" |
30124 | Mac, did you say they were our friends? 30124 Markest thou that tree yonder, on the ledge of the valley?" |
30124 | McKegnie, can you hear me? |
30124 | McKegnie?... 30124 Not trying to get out, are you?" |
30124 | Now, what the hell''s this thing for? |
30124 | Oh, God, what''s happened? |
30124 | Oh, Mr. Wells, where are you? |
30124 | On which floor? |
30124 | One hundred leagues in two hours? 30124 Over the world? |
30124 | Powerful, is it not? 30124 So, then, no doubt, he has told you of the law of our country?" |
30124 | So? 30124 Sound happy-- eh?" |
30124 | Surely, but why did n''t Breslau hear it? |
30124 | The Emperor? |
30124 | The battery? |
30124 | The old explorer whose men turned him adrift? 30124 The real business?" |
30124 | Then he whom the dog- born Jereboam captured was thy friend? |
30124 | Then your theory is that some sort of a ray machine was put in operation before the helicopter landed? |
30124 | Then-- but-- you''re not running the_ NX-1_, are you? |
30124 | There or here-- what matter? 30124 They were washed last Friday, but they do look rather dirty, do n''t they? |
30124 | Thinkest thou couldst ride a podoko? |
30124 | Thou art ready, Friend Nelson? |
30124 | Thou seest? |
30124 | Time? 30124 Time?" |
30124 | Understand, Keith? |
30124 | Was there ever an instrument of war that had not its defence? 30124 We saw them at dusk, last evening-- remember? |
30124 | Well? |
30124 | Well? |
30124 | Wells? 30124 Wells? |
30124 | What are they doing? |
30124 | What are they? |
30124 | What can I do? 30124 What caused the row?" |
30124 | What did you say about that prisoner? |
30124 | What do you mean? |
30124 | What do you suppose they''ll try next, Doctor? |
30124 | What does it mean, Doctor? |
30124 | What dost thou propose? |
30124 | What has happened, Carnes? |
30124 | What in hell are you doing up there? |
30124 | What is Jarmuth? |
30124 | What is it, Tommy? 30124 What is it?" |
30124 | What is that? |
30124 | What is the black lamp? |
30124 | What is the idea? |
30124 | What is the thing? |
30124 | What is your name? |
30124 | What madness is this? |
30124 | What sayest thou? 30124 What the devil was that? |
30124 | What the devil? |
30124 | What the devil? |
30124 | What thinkest thou of our retortii? |
30124 | What time do you make it? |
30124 | What was in the bombs? |
30124 | What was it? |
30124 | What was that vitrilene helmet for? |
30124 | What were you going to do after you were rescued from jail? |
30124 | What wouldst thou, oh Heracles? |
30124 | What''s that? |
30124 | What''s the matter, Keith? |
30124 | What''s the matter, old man? |
30124 | What''s this? |
30124 | What''s this? |
30124 | What''s wrong? |
30124 | What? 30124 What?" |
30124 | When? |
30124 | Where are they? |
30124 | Where are you? |
30124 | Where did he get to? |
30124 | Where did you get the formula for radite? |
30124 | Where in hell''s it going? |
30124 | Where is he living in London? |
30124 | Who is the present head of the Young Labor party? |
30124 | Why do n''t you take me with them? 30124 Why?" |
30124 | Will that always be home to you, Tommy? |
30124 | Will you have him brought here at once, please? |
30124 | Will you land? 30124 Wonder if Alden had any better luck?" |
30124 | Wonder what it was? |
30124 | Wot abaht that there Captain Hay, sir? |
30124 | Would it not seem so? |
30124 | Yes.... Keith-- you''re trying to dodge out of the tunnel, are n''t you? |
30124 | Yes? |
30124 | Yes? |
30124 | You do n''t know how much he got through? |
30124 | You know how a sliver of wood is propelled by the ripples of a pond? 30124 You know the working of the beacon?" |
30124 | You mean that the current might melt the wire? |
30124 | You mean--? |
30124 | You say the boats are completely destroyed? |
30124 | You say these bright boys from over the border want to chow six more girls? 30124 You sitting beside an Emperor?" |
30124 | You were on guard here last night? |
30124 | You would-- eh? |
30124 | You''d rather drown? |
30124 | You''re all back on the_ NX-1_, Keith? 30124 You''re going right through that cavern, then, Wells?" |
30124 | You''re going to investigate what lies beyond? |
30124 | You''re sure he''s insane? |
30124 | You''ve located their headquarters? 30124 ***** But surprise? 30124 ***** He turned to Althora to ask,How are they coming? |
30124 | *****"What happened next?" |
30124 | *****"What is the law of Jarmuth?" |
30124 | Accuse him outright of his suspicions? |
30124 | All ready?" |
30124 | Am I right?" |
30124 | And then, in the octopi submarine, had come a soft glow of violet.... Was it a more deadly weapon than the paralyzing ray? |
30124 | And thou"--his heavy, golden eyebrows shot up--"and thou, what dost thou wish?" |
30124 | And with what could America hold them back? |
30124 | Any signs of life from the devil?" |
30124 | Are you all right?" |
30124 | Are you there?" |
30124 | Art thou mad? |
30124 | Bailley, have you still got that goldfish bowl?" |
30124 | Be reasonable, ca n''t you? |
30124 | But ca n''t something be done about wrong numbers? |
30124 | But can they ever destroy the rest of that swarm? |
30124 | But how far, Keith wondered, had that ship preceded her? |
30124 | But how much had he got through on the radiophone before being stopped? |
30124 | But how? |
30124 | But if I can stop this annual tribute, it wo n''t be so bad, will it?" |
30124 | But what if he should pull one and open all the exit ports? |
30124 | But where to? |
30124 | But why does n''t he show up?" |
30124 | But-- but-- Praed--""What happened?" |
30124 | But-- would Hay be there? |
30124 | By the way, you have two more communists here, Denberg and Semensky, have n''t you?" |
30124 | Ca n''t you hear it? |
30124 | Ca n''t you hear me? |
30124 | Can you hear me? |
30124 | Can you hear me?" |
30124 | Cook McKegnie?" |
30124 | Could you tell us what it means?" |
30124 | Do n''t you hear me? |
30124 | Do you get the idea now?" |
30124 | Do you understand?" |
30124 | Dost dare make threats to thy liege lord?" |
30124 | Dost doubt my words, sirrah?" |
30124 | Douglas said swiftly:"Headquarters? |
30124 | During one brief pause the anguished cook found himself groaning aloud:"Oh, Mr. Wells, where are you? |
30124 | Finally Lance snorted and burst out:"Why the hell did you run away, Praed? |
30124 | Following them-- where? |
30124 | For heaven''s sake, McKegnie, where are you?" |
30124 | Gas of some sort?" |
30124 | Get that? |
30124 | Got it?" |
30124 | Had he stumbled upon a remnant of that powerful people whose fabled empire had been drowned ten centuries ago in the cold waves of the Atlantic? |
30124 | Had he told where the rendezvous, was to be? |
30124 | Had the enemy seen Bowman leave? |
30124 | Had the ray struck him down? |
30124 | Hay, or a swooping squadron of Slav planes? |
30124 | He seems to bear a charmed life, does n''t he?" |
30124 | He went by here, did n''t he?" |
30124 | His words were audible to everyone, and they voiced the thought in every brain:"What''re we going to do now?" |
30124 | How about Hill 333?" |
30124 | How darest thou bandy words with us?" |
30124 | How far away is it?" |
30124 | How is it generated?" |
30124 | How many men have you?" |
30124 | How much did the Slavs know? |
30124 | How much had Ranth got through before he stopped him? |
30124 | How was he to know that it had gone straight through? |
30124 | How will they get here?" |
30124 | I guess that''s why he said it, old fellow...."Lance gasped:"You''re sacrificing your life?" |
30124 | I understand that one of the guards escaped the fate which overtook the rest of the persons in the infirmary?" |
30124 | I wonder what kind of devils caught him?" |
30124 | If I am not speaking out of turn, what are you planning to do in the mean time?" |
30124 | If I had something to hold them apart--"You have n''t a piece of steel about five inches long, have you?--or anything to substitute for it? |
30124 | If the thieves came in through the windows, what was their object in cutting that hole through the roof? |
30124 | If you wish to question this man, why not give him the same treatment?" |
30124 | Into the silence Lance whispered:"And that-- that is Hay''s job?" |
30124 | Is it yet time?" |
30124 | Is n''t that so?" |
30124 | Is there any way of artificially stimulating this man''s brain so that we can force the secrets of his subconscious mind from him?" |
30124 | Is there anyone now who can take up the work and bring order and results from this chaos of futility?" |
30124 | Is there anything else?" |
30124 | It that understood?" |
30124 | It was:"Now, what the hell''s this thing for?" |
30124 | Just how much did the Slavs know, then, about the torpedoes? |
30124 | Keith? |
30124 | Look''em over, will you?'' |
30124 | Much better than a correspondence course in''How to Be a Submarine Commander,''eh?" |
30124 | Need I name it?" |
30124 | Now what in hell is all this?" |
30124 | Now, let''s see: what the hell''s this thing for?... |
30124 | Now-- what? |
30124 | Oh, Mr. Wells, where are you? |
30124 | On the other''s nod of affirmation he continued:"What''s your plan?" |
30124 | One of those mound cities? |
30124 | Or, plaintively:"Now, what the hell''s_ this_ thing for?" |
30124 | Praed''s low voice, devoid of all trace of emotion, asked:"What makes you think I was scared, Lance?" |
30124 | Prithee, Wanderer, what be thy name?" |
30124 | Put him under arrest as a spy? |
30124 | Re- broadcast this news to land stations, will you? |
30124 | Says something about his skill as a pilot, does n''t it? |
30124 | Scared stiff?" |
30124 | Shall we build and launch the Great Fleet of the United States, and take upon our own shoulders the burden and responsibility of defense? |
30124 | Shall we make it? |
30124 | Stanesky, eh? |
30124 | That is, to the right-- understand? |
30124 | That would explain why their submarine had been sent through the tunnel.... A voice sounded in his ears:"Keith? |
30124 | The Ice World?" |
30124 | The cook''s stammering voice came back:"Why-- why-- is that you, Mr. Wells? |
30124 | The spy, going to transmit the news he had overheard? |
30124 | The whole crew''s with you? |
30124 | Their breadth of shoulders, the thickness of their chests-- what had these figures to do with their captivity? |
30124 | They''ve still got you prisoner?" |
30124 | They-- they''ve been experimenting on them...."***** Was he, too, Wells wondered, to be experimented on? |
30124 | Thou alone to overcome six of their best warriors? |
30124 | Thou wouldst see one fired?" |
30124 | Told the time and place, and warned the Slavs to look for Hay? |
30124 | Understand?" |
30124 | Understand?" |
30124 | Was Keith refraining from firing his torpedoes because he, Bowman, was on board the enemy boat? |
30124 | Was he doomed to dash up and down between floor and ceiling forever? |
30124 | Was it waiting with a purpose? |
30124 | Was it waiting-- and inviting attack? |
30124 | Was that a shadow?--a nightmare flying bird?--or a plane? |
30124 | Was this the unknown spy? |
30124 | We will wait... and when I am sure that-- Althora-- is-- gone... when there is nothing I can do to help--""Help?" |
30124 | Well?" |
30124 | Wells asked:"What did you hear?" |
30124 | Wells?" |
30124 | Were the Americans dead? |
30124 | What are they doing to you? |
30124 | What can have done it?" |
30124 | What caused it? |
30124 | What could he do now? |
30124 | What have they done to you?" |
30124 | What horror could have ripped them-- all of them-- to driftwood, with the weather perfect? |
30124 | What is this?" |
30124 | What kind of creatures can they be?" |
30124 | What knowest thou of their weapons?" |
30124 | What motivates them?" |
30124 | What now? |
30124 | What now? |
30124 | What was there that Earth could do to meet this overwhelming assault? |
30124 | What would Douglas say to him? |
30124 | What would it do to a man?" |
30124 | What you print there-- only letters praising your magazine to the skies?--or do you occasionally print a brickbat? |
30124 | When do we take off, sir?" |
30124 | Where are you speaking from? |
30124 | Where do you get that captain stuff?" |
30124 | Where is the place located? |
30124 | Who was the other wanderer? |
30124 | Who''s running it? |
30124 | Why not have a page devoted to the pictures and biographies of your writers, and full page illustrations? |
30124 | Why not have a space for good reprints and charge a nickel more? |
30124 | Why was n''t that noise heard?" |
30124 | Why? |
30124 | Why? |
30124 | Why? |
30124 | Wonder what devilment the priests are cooking up?" |
30124 | Wonder what the devil these are?" |
30124 | Would the plates stand it? |
30124 | Would the ray melt through the weakened steel before he could fire? |
30124 | Would they arrive at Cierum in time? |
30124 | Would you kindly oblige me? |
30124 | Yes-- but where? |
30124 | Yet what can we do? |
30124 | You all have hand grenades as well as your rifles?" |
30124 | You have it well surrounded? |
30124 | You know the fishing fleet that was near us yesterday morning?" |
30124 | You say that only one out of a hundred have n''t read reprints[?]. |
30124 | You understand? |
30124 | You will?" |
30124 | You wo n''t let this cancel our rendezvous?" |
30124 | You''re game, are n''t you?" |
30124 | You''ve what? |
30124 | _ Last._ Why did he say that?" |
30124 | _"What? |
30124 | he asked,"--some radio device? |
33016 | ''Clumsy''? |
33016 | ''Yet''? |
33016 | About Nida Mane, sir? 33016 After Dan Kelly? |
33016 | All here? |
33016 | And fly a plane for Saranoff? |
33016 | And now, how soon can you go? 33016 And you, Ivan Saranoff?" |
33016 | Are there any local conditions unfavorable to flying? |
33016 | Are you affected, Captain? |
33016 | Are you all right, Carnes? |
33016 | Are you all right, Howard? |
33016 | Are you all right? |
33016 | Are you all right? |
33016 | Are you going on the expedition? |
33016 | Are you hit bad? |
33016 | Asmo and Camol, will you help me? 33016 But,"Abbot had objected further,"if so, why have n''t they come up to visit or conquer us? |
33016 | By morning you expect it will have traveled forty or fifty miles in all directions? |
33016 | Ca n''t something be done? |
33016 | Ca n''t they see the field and the plane? 33016 Can either of you pound a key-- code, I mean?" |
33016 | Can we see you, Van? |
33016 | Can you get word for me at once to Thig? |
33016 | Can you hear me up on the boat? |
33016 | Can you work the radio door controls? |
33016 | Carnes, is n''t this the darnedest thing we''ve ever been through? 33016 Check this, will you, Walt?" |
33016 | Chet,she demanded,"are n''t you going to warn him? |
33016 | Coming, Nida? |
33016 | Did you get it, Diane? 33016 Did you kill him, Doctor?" |
33016 | Did you learn Saranoff''s plans? |
33016 | Did you think I would put you_ all_ out of the ship? 33016 Do n''t you want to go?" |
33016 | Do you have any faint idea of what a job this is? 33016 Do you know Romehl?" |
33016 | Dr. Bird,thought the king,"can you communicate with me easily?" |
33016 | Eh, yes? 33016 Error?" |
33016 | Fake an S. O. S. Do n''t you see? 33016 Has Captain Ilgen Mr. Lane Mollon''s leave to stay?" |
33016 | Has Hanac brought our evening food yet? |
33016 | Has anything been accomplished? |
33016 | Have I your leave to stay, Mich''l Ares? |
33016 | Have a heart, will you? |
33016 | Heave in the riot- ray, will you, old fellow? |
33016 | Herr Bullard, iss it not-- yess? |
33016 | Herr Harkness, you have filed claims on it; who am I to dispute with the great Herr Harkness? 33016 How about conscripting a little labor?" |
33016 | How can I? |
33016 | How did it get a name like that? |
33016 | How did it leak out? 33016 How do you know where we''re going?" |
33016 | How far? |
33016 | How long are the days and nights? |
33016 | If our savage ancestors lived on the inhospitable outer shell of the earth,he shouted,"is that a reason for our taking that retrograde step? |
33016 | In my head? |
33016 | Inspector Dolan,said Dr. Bird sharply,"why did n''t you tell me those things?" |
33016 | Is it nearly time? |
33016 | Is the guard room occupied, sir? |
33016 | Ivan Saranoff, what means this? |
33016 | Leave you,he said,"in one place? |
33016 | Listen, Bill-- I never lied to you, did I? |
33016 | Mean to tell me you''ve been there? 33016 No, Doctor, what is it?" |
33016 | Normal? |
33016 | Notice those short tubes mounted on light wheels over against the walls? 33016 Now what dirty work are they up to?" |
33016 | Now what? |
33016 | Operate? 33016 Perhaps you do n''t know, Captain,"Mich''l suggested smoothly,"that it is not wise to disregard the orders of the Provisional President''s son?" |
33016 | Put you_ all_ on one island? |
33016 | She made good her escape then? |
33016 | She there now? |
33016 | Sir, what are your orders? |
33016 | So you know this? |
33016 | So, my friends, you would run away and leave me, would you? |
33016 | So? |
33016 | Spare the time? 33016 Sure, but what''s it all about?" |
33016 | Talk? 33016 The flying conditions were good?" |
33016 | Then what means this? |
33016 | Then why have they taken up with Saranoff? |
33016 | They did n''t? |
33016 | Think they''ll get over the river, Van? |
33016 | This your girl that got away from you? 33016 Treachery, eh?" |
33016 | Well, Carnesy, old dear,said Dr. Bird,"have you been lonesome?" |
33016 | Well? |
33016 | What about Nida Mane? 33016 What about your work?" |
33016 | What are we going to do, Doctor? |
33016 | What are you doing, Garland? |
33016 | What can a mental cripple like you do with blind allies like them? |
33016 | What can be the matter? |
33016 | What do they want of pilots underground? |
33016 | What do you intend to do with us? |
33016 | What do you mean-- moon flowers? |
33016 | What do you mean-- no use? 33016 What do you mean? |
33016 | What good would that do? |
33016 | What is he going to do to us? |
33016 | What is it, dear? |
33016 | What is it? |
33016 | What is the matter, sir? |
33016 | What say, Kratz? |
33016 | What seems to be the matter, Captain? |
33016 | What the dickens? |
33016 | What was it that you said?--that Harkness and I would be staying here? 33016 What you going to do there?" |
33016 | What you would have given for this last night, eh? 33016 What''s the big idea?" |
33016 | What''s the dope? 33016 What''s the idea, Van?" |
33016 | What''s the matter, Doctor? |
33016 | What? |
33016 | When? 33016 Where are we? |
33016 | Where is Garland? |
33016 | Where is Nida? 33016 Where is he?" |
33016 | Where is it? |
33016 | Where is she? |
33016 | Where is the ship; where have you hidden it? 33016 Where''s the fire?" |
33016 | Who are we to question the judgment of our all- knowing masters? |
33016 | Who could it be? |
33016 | Who said so? |
33016 | Who''s that? |
33016 | Why do n''t you tell them? |
33016 | Why in thunder are we back here? |
33016 | Why is he so sure he can get me in the morning? 33016 Why not?" |
33016 | Why not? |
33016 | Why? |
33016 | Why? |
33016 | Why? |
33016 | Would you call it a hoax or the real thing? |
33016 | Would you mind repeating what you just said, Van? |
33016 | Yeah, that''s the question: what can we do? |
33016 | Yeah? 33016 Yes, Your Majesty, but may I ask that you alter the vibration period of my comrade, Mr. Carnes? |
33016 | Yes, and meanwhile the thing is overwhelming us at what rate? |
33016 | Yes, but what''s all the rush? 33016 Yes?" |
33016 | Yes? |
33016 | You are going on the expedition, and Romehl is not? |
33016 | You are going to maroon us on an island? |
33016 | You are going to put the three of us off in some lost corner of this world? |
33016 | You can fly it for sure, Max? |
33016 | You can see it just as well in daylight? |
33016 | You have met Senator Mollon? |
33016 | You have n''t forgotten, Mich''l, this is the day of the Referendum? |
33016 | You mean--? |
33016 | You men willing? |
33016 | You say you bring the stuff here with a light ray? |
33016 | You trying to put one over on me? |
33016 | You will do-- what? |
33016 | You will take us back? |
33016 | You''ll want me at the tabulating section? |
33016 | You''re a cheerful sort of soul, are n''t you? |
33016 | You''re sure you could n''t move? 33016 You, too?" |
33016 | _ Eh, What?_Dear Editor: Just got my June issue of our good mag, Astounding Stories, and I think that it is great. |
33016 | ***** What danger could there be in this well- guarded world? |
33016 | *****"Iss there air?" |
33016 | *****"What is the cube root of 378?" |
33016 | A hawk-- was it not? |
33016 | A question, Mr. Cummings: Shades of Polter and Tugh!--why must you always have a deformed character in your stories? |
33016 | And do you know how fast we are going? |
33016 | And if so, who? |
33016 | And now what?" |
33016 | And then...."Then-- what? |
33016 | And we see them, or I see the other fellow as he appeared when my time caught up with his? |
33016 | And what causes gushers? |
33016 | And what was the Sun like? |
33016 | And why have n''t we ever found any trace of them?" |
33016 | And you have n''t answered my other questions: when do we go back?" |
33016 | And you say there are more?" |
33016 | Are n''t they real?" |
33016 | Are you willing to see that brain destroyed? |
33016 | Bill, Bart, what can we do?" |
33016 | Boldly he asked him:"Where is Mr. Mollon? |
33016 | But did he plan to leave them all or only two? |
33016 | But do n''t you realize what this thing means-- this ungodly growth that''s started?" |
33016 | But there is a real point of doubt: Would the personality accompany the brain in transplantation? |
33016 | But was it their two friends after all? |
33016 | But what could they do? |
33016 | But what will happen to them all when the automatic machinery fails?" |
33016 | But where''s the ship? |
33016 | But who in the devil are you? |
33016 | But why? |
33016 | But, why get excited? |
33016 | Ca n''t you get their thoughts?" |
33016 | Can you tell us now?" |
33016 | Carnes?" |
33016 | Chet had been too intent upon the newscast to heed an opening door at his back....*****"How about it, Chet?" |
33016 | Could it be that the one chance in a million had actually happened, and that a grapple from the boat above had actually found him? |
33016 | Could these suits contain human beings? |
33016 | D''you speak English? |
33016 | Danny Kelly? |
33016 | Did he dare take it? |
33016 | Did n''t I tell you?" |
33016 | Did not the king give me full power while he was away?" |
33016 | Did you notice one thing? |
33016 | Did you notice this?" |
33016 | Did you think you would just hop over to the Dark Moon? |
33016 | Did you understand any of their talk?" |
33016 | Do they appeal to your dramatic sense? |
33016 | Do you know the Moon''s speed as it approaches? |
33016 | Do you know we will shoot another two hundred thousand miles straight out before I can check this ship? |
33016 | Do you mean to cooperate with me or not?" |
33016 | Doctor, what were those things? |
33016 | Eh, what? |
33016 | For Chet Bullard, time ceased to have meaning; what were seconds-- or centuries-- as he stared at that glowing rim? |
33016 | For that matter, what had become of Harkness? |
33016 | Get me? |
33016 | Get me?" |
33016 | Got a line on him?" |
33016 | Got an ax or anything?" |
33016 | Got one with a radio?" |
33016 | Got''em loaded down, eh?" |
33016 | Had Walt learned of some plan of Schwartzmann''s? |
33016 | Had he not taken many such tests on earth and passed them easily? |
33016 | Had the serpents frightened him back?" |
33016 | Had you thought that there''s a lot of room to get lost in out here?" |
33016 | Had you thought what you will look like when that fool pilot rams into it head on? |
33016 | Have you any ideas?" |
33016 | Have you doped out something?" |
33016 | Have you ever noticed that almost every critic of Science Fiction is either a teacher or a female? |
33016 | Have you realized, Chet, that we own that world-- you and Diane and I? |
33016 | He killed Mollon?" |
33016 | Hear the rays?" |
33016 | Hear?" |
33016 | Hear?" |
33016 | Her tinkling, silvery voice was troubled as she asked:"Have I your leave to stay, Mich''l Ares?" |
33016 | His head!--what had happened to his head?... |
33016 | His nurse came into the room with extra chairs; Chet waited till she was gone before he repeated:"Now what? |
33016 | How about an occasional short story? |
33016 | How about yourself?" |
33016 | How could the murder of Major Atwood be mentioned in the records of New York? |
33016 | How did you make out to- day?" |
33016 | How near were these enemies of his, he wondered? |
33016 | How on earth did you do it?" |
33016 | How soon will you be ready to start back? |
33016 | How''s the side where they got you with the spear?--and how are you? |
33016 | I see that the edges of the paper are now smooth, but still the leaves stick out beyond one another, so what good does that do? |
33016 | If a hard- boiled newspaper man would not believe the story, who could? |
33016 | If not, would not the synthetic"Extra Man"be a human being minus personality? |
33016 | If there is any amount of time separating two things, those two things are invisible to each other, are they not? |
33016 | If this is the case, how then can a rocket- propelled space ship go across this void? |
33016 | If we could get into the Sun again-- wouldn''t you want that?" |
33016 | In that case, what became of the bodies? |
33016 | Is it all right with you?" |
33016 | Is n''t he afraid I''ll leave the island? |
33016 | Is n''t it possible that he has, at some time in his explorations, come into contact with these fellows and made friends with them?" |
33016 | Is that right? |
33016 | It was Harkness-- Walt Harkness-- from whom he had snatched the controls.... To fly to the Dark Moon, of course-- What nonsense was that?... |
33016 | It was foolish, eh, to reduce the power? |
33016 | It was useless to run away last night-- not?" |
33016 | Know how much that stone''s worth?" |
33016 | Like the great vita- lights that were prescribed by law and evaded by everyone, except possibly the technies? |
33016 | Make it snappy, will you?" |
33016 | Might not these jealousies flame into huge wars when translated to the world above? |
33016 | Must we mention his story? |
33016 | Nida, you''ll admit I''m taking no unfair advantage of him?" |
33016 | Now what is going to happen?" |
33016 | Or why did n''t you let Diane and me back up your yarn? |
33016 | Or would that power be denied him? |
33016 | Refused me a loan this morning, did n''t you? |
33016 | Say nothing about any trouble-- understand?" |
33016 | So he pointed at her and asked,"Milli?" |
33016 | Some little plan like that in your mind?" |
33016 | Some work in connection with the Referendum? |
33016 | Sure you can spare the time to go out there now?" |
33016 | Tell me-- where?" |
33016 | The Midget From the Island A COMPLETE NOVELETTE_ By H. G. Winter_[ Illustration:_"For God''s sake, Hagendorff, what''s come over you? |
33016 | The best story you ever published? |
33016 | The black lens at the end of Mich''l''s needle- ray pressed hard, and Lane said naturally:"You have her in custody?" |
33016 | The ship, you will return it safely to the place where it was?" |
33016 | Then is it not possible that each individual is existing in a different time realm? |
33016 | Then what? |
33016 | Then what?" |
33016 | Then why did n''t he keep on when he was started? |
33016 | Think I had it up my sleeve? |
33016 | This would afford a parallel; for if she realized that there were two languages in the world, might there not be three? |
33016 | Three strides took Hagendorff opposite him; and from above the thunderous voice rumbled:"What were your sensations?" |
33016 | To the moon?" |
33016 | True, the brain is the control room; but--? |
33016 | Was her patient about to recover consciousness? |
33016 | What could he do? |
33016 | What did he say?" |
33016 | What did you do with them?" |
33016 | What do you mean?" |
33016 | What does the title say? |
33016 | What had happened? |
33016 | What happened to our neighboring nation of Atlantica only a short 15,000 years ago? |
33016 | What has happened?" |
33016 | What is it this time?" |
33016 | What is it?" |
33016 | What is it?" |
33016 | What must one do to vote? |
33016 | What trouble could this man Schwartzmann threaten that a word to the Peace Enforcement Commission would not quell? |
33016 | What were they doing out there in the watery- blue midnight? |
33016 | What will happen when those technies also deteriorate, and lose the will to work? |
33016 | What will you do if you do land? |
33016 | What will you do when you open the ports and the--?" |
33016 | What would happen when the present overloaded machinery should break down; wear out? |
33016 | What would it do to your machine?" |
33016 | What''ll we do?" |
33016 | What''s it all about?" |
33016 | What''s the idea? |
33016 | What''s the use of talking to you? |
33016 | What''s wrong? |
33016 | When are you going to start putting it on the stands twice a month? |
33016 | When do we go back?" |
33016 | Where are we? |
33016 | Where are you staying?" |
33016 | Where could he go to elude the inescapable patrols? |
33016 | Where next? |
33016 | Where you going?" |
33016 | Where''d you come from?" |
33016 | Where''s this laboratory of yours?" |
33016 | Where''s your first aid kit?" |
33016 | Who am I to answer? |
33016 | Who shall it be?" |
33016 | Who was this man, Schwartzmann, that dared dream of violating their possessions? |
33016 | Who''s your chief?" |
33016 | Why could n''t he remember?... |
33016 | Why could not one see events in which he participated? |
33016 | Why did n''t you show them the ship? |
33016 | Why had Hagendorff tricked him? |
33016 | Why had n''t he first made appropriate inquiries of his guard? |
33016 | Why had n''t the officials published the entire story as Van told it over the Secret Service radio? |
33016 | Why have I done it, you wonder? |
33016 | Why in the devil are they dropping them so near?" |
33016 | Why not give us more interplanetary illustrations of space ships and the like as in"Brigands of the Moon"? |
33016 | Why not omit to close any further gates behind him? |
33016 | Why should the cage appear as a mist at first? |
33016 | Why struggle? |
33016 | Will it destroy the space- serpents? |
33016 | Will you willingly submit your brains to the searching of this instrument?" |
33016 | Would Mr. Vanderventer be so kind as to fly over there and destroy it before any lives were lost? |
33016 | Would the ship be there? |
33016 | Yes; and did you think I was going to stand by and see all the credit go to you? |
33016 | You little fool-- you think you can get free? |
33016 | You mean it''ll keep on growing?" |
33016 | You never saw Van licked yet, did you?" |
33016 | You were helpless?" |
33016 | You''re sure this is from the moon?" |
33016 | Your injury-- how soon will you be well enough?" |
33016 | _ Ach!_ This machine, it will startle the world of science; it will make its inventor famous-- not? |
33016 | _ What Price Smoothness?_ Dear Editor: I have just finished the June issue of Astounding Stories. |
33016 | asked Carnes,"did your light fail?" |
33016 | exclaimed Abbot,"when you have less than a day to live?" |
33016 | he asked himself in a half- spoken thought,"--how far have we come?" |
33016 | he screamed,"you would kill us all? |
6714 | A prisoner, eh? |
6714 | About all they will get, eh? |
6714 | About what? |
6714 | Airships, is n''t it? |
6714 | All right, what? |
6714 | And about that launch? 6714 And automobiled it out here? |
6714 | And found--? |
6714 | And how he used some letters sent to your father from a great friend of his? |
6714 | And leave the Racer where she is? |
6714 | And so you thought you''d steal away without letting me know it? |
6714 | And the card? |
6714 | And the two men with Jerry? |
6714 | And then, of course, she screamed out in fear? |
6714 | And then? |
6714 | And then? |
6714 | And what is at? |
6714 | And what''s the programme? |
6714 | And you are going to run it, Dave? |
6714 | And you''re going right after the Drifter? |
6714 | And your arm? |
6714 | Another airship than ours, you mean? |
6714 | Another couple of hundred miles? |
6714 | Any answer? 6714 Anything wrong?" |
6714 | Are there no marks on it? |
6714 | Are they on the Canadian side yet? |
6714 | Are you Colonel Lyon? |
6714 | Are you going back to Desert Island? |
6714 | Are you going to land, Dave? |
6714 | Are you having some trouble with the Interstate people? |
6714 | As how, now? |
6714 | Automobile, then? |
6714 | Business, eh? |
6714 | Business-- with me? |
6714 | But he could not keep Mr. Dale away from home forever? |
6714 | But he lives in Kewaukee? |
6714 | But the launch, Mister? |
6714 | But the skiff? |
6714 | But where did the checks come from? |
6714 | But why? 6714 Ca n''t Jerry Dawson tell you anything about him?" |
6714 | Ca n''t you find some safe place where we can land? |
6714 | Can it be done? |
6714 | Can you find a better place, Hiram? |
6714 | Can you hold out? |
6714 | Can you walk? |
6714 | Could it have been a business rival? |
6714 | Dashaway, do n''t you think you are rather hard on them-- and on me? |
6714 | Dashaway, yes? |
6714 | Dave Dashaway? |
6714 | Did n''t you search the coat? |
6714 | Did they resist? |
6714 | Did you notice the way he hesitated when we asked him where he had come from? |
6714 | Do n''t you know me? |
6714 | Do n''t you see? |
6714 | Do we have to use them? |
6714 | Do you know him, may I inquire? |
6714 | Do you know the company he represents? |
6714 | Do you know where Fernwood is? |
6714 | Do you mean that, Hiram? |
6714 | Do you remember where? |
6714 | Do you suppose it would help you out any to have me give it to you? |
6714 | Do you suspect anybody? |
6714 | Do you want to smash my arm all over again? |
6714 | Does it? |
6714 | Eh? |
6714 | Eh? |
6714 | Excuse a question, matey? |
6714 | Fifty dollars? |
6714 | Fine weather for hydroplanes this, eh? |
6714 | Fixed things up for us, has he, Hiram? |
6714 | For me? |
6714 | For us, you think? |
6714 | Getting ready for what? |
6714 | Going to drop? |
6714 | Going to land? |
6714 | Going to stay here all day? |
6714 | Has it been shipped to Columbus yet? |
6714 | Have you a Kewaukee directory here? |
6714 | Have you a place to keep him tight and safe? |
6714 | He is a criminal, then? |
6714 | Hello, who''s this? |
6714 | Hello, you, Dashaway? |
6714 | His cronies? |
6714 | How about an air and water combination, Grimshaw? |
6714 | How are you getting along? |
6714 | How are you going to get there? |
6714 | How can you know that? |
6714 | How did it happen? |
6714 | How did you come to get the badge? |
6714 | How did you know that, Hiram? |
6714 | How do you know? |
6714 | How far away is Kewaukee, Dave? |
6714 | How is that? |
6714 | How is that? |
6714 | How is that? |
6714 | How is that? |
6714 | How much now? |
6714 | How soon will they be here? |
6714 | How was that? |
6714 | How was that? |
6714 | How was that? |
6714 | I do n''t suppose, Dashaway,answered the showman,"that you''re open for such a week stunt as exhibiting at some of my county fairs?" |
6714 | I suppose they, dragged me aboard of the Drifter from the water, but what about Hiram and the Monarch II? |
6714 | I suppose you know why we sent for you? |
6714 | I wonder what Mr. King will say? |
6714 | I wonder what they will do with us now? |
6714 | In that direction? |
6714 | Is a Mr. Timmins stopping here? |
6714 | Is he here at Anseton? |
6714 | Is that so, now? |
6714 | Is there anybody else in trouble? |
6714 | It looks that way, does n''t it? 6714 It startles you?" |
6714 | It''s about that rush telegram? |
6714 | It''s great, is n''t it, Dave? |
6714 | It''s the wind, is n''t it, Dave? |
6714 | Kidnapped? |
6714 | Left-- left the meet? |
6714 | Look is if I''d been through a threshing machine, do I? |
6714 | Mr. Alden,he asked quite excitedly,"where did you take that slide?" |
6714 | Not Mr. Dale''s signature? |
6714 | Not much to see, eh? |
6714 | Nothing at all? |
6714 | Now, where did you throw the coat and the things you found In it? |
6714 | Oh, Dashaway, eh? |
6714 | Oh, arrived, eh? |
6714 | Oh, going somewhere? |
6714 | Oh, going to try and fix things before daylight? |
6714 | Oh, that? |
6714 | Oh, that? |
6714 | Oh, the machine has been out, then, has it? |
6714 | Oh, then you''re not counting an leaving here again by the air route? |
6714 | Oh, you have? |
6714 | Oh, you mean going by train? |
6714 | Oh, you think you''re going? |
6714 | On the country mud roads we''ve been having for the last week? |
6714 | One thing, though,he said;"is n''t something exciting going to happen soon, Dave?" |
6714 | Or over the Canadian border? |
6714 | Queer, is n''t it? |
6714 | Record breaker of what? |
6714 | Say, Dave, are you sure? |
6714 | Say, Dave,spoke Hiram, as they boarded the train bound for Bolton,"this is just like acting out some story, is n''t it?" |
6714 | Say, what about the one these fellows had? |
6714 | See here, Hiram,broke in Dave,"What are you talking about?" |
6714 | See here, Mr. Dawson,spoke up Dave,"what are you going to do with us?" |
6714 | See what? |
6714 | See what? |
6714 | Seen the manager? |
6714 | Shall we set up a fight and yell? |
6714 | So? 6714 Some one was here, you say?" |
6714 | Some people there named Dawson? |
6714 | Some scene you know, Dashaway? |
6714 | Sooner than I planned,replied Dave,"But I--""You''ve thought the affair over, I hope?" |
6714 | Still pretending to be Dave Dashaway? |
6714 | Suppose the Drifter comes Dave? |
6714 | Suppose you get a sight of the Drifter? |
6714 | Sure of that, Dashaway? |
6714 | Tell me about it, wo n''t you? |
6714 | That is final? |
6714 | That''s fine, is n''t it? |
6714 | That''s strange, is n''t it? |
6714 | That''s the contract, is it? |
6714 | The Baby Racer? |
6714 | The Drifter? |
6714 | Then they mean mischief? |
6714 | Then we''ll know that it is really here, wo n''t we? |
6714 | Then why do n''t you set me free? |
6714 | Then why do you want to look at the badge? 6714 Then why--?" |
6714 | Then you are going to try again? |
6714 | Then you came specially to see me? |
6714 | Then you failed to find Mr. Dale at Warrenton? |
6714 | Then you think well of it? |
6714 | Then you''ve found out something definite? |
6714 | They were not? |
6714 | Think of what, Hiram? |
6714 | Think there''s any use trying to catch that burglar? |
6714 | This is a trip to talk about, eh, Dave? |
6714 | Time for lunch, you think? |
6714 | To hunt for the Drifter? |
6714 | To see me? |
6714 | To warn the Drifter? |
6714 | Was n''t it hurt? |
6714 | Was n''t it in the basin you spoke of? |
6714 | We were sitting here waiting--"Waiting? |
6714 | We''re going to make it, are n''t we? |
6714 | Well, I suppose breakfast is the first move? |
6714 | Well, anyway, had n''t he ought to have some concern about other folks''property? |
6714 | Well, they''ve got to know somebody, have n''t they? |
6714 | Well, this is just like Robinson Crusoe, is n''t it, Dave? |
6714 | Well, what is it? |
6714 | Well,he said, with a leer meant to be clever,"I suppose you fellows know me?" |
6714 | Were you on board alone? |
6714 | What about it? |
6714 | What about? |
6714 | What am I then? |
6714 | What are we to do now-- sleep? |
6714 | What are you going to do? |
6714 | What business, Dashaway? |
6714 | What could have happened? 6714 What could that purpose be?" |
6714 | What did it mean? |
6714 | What did you do with the card? |
6714 | What did you do? |
6714 | What do I make of it? |
6714 | What do you call that, now? |
6714 | What do you mean by that? |
6714 | What do you mean? |
6714 | What do you mean? |
6714 | What do you want for it? |
6714 | What do you want me to do? |
6714 | What do you want of us, Jerry? |
6714 | What do you want to tie a one- armed fellow up for? |
6714 | What for? |
6714 | What for? |
6714 | What happened? |
6714 | What have you been up to, Hiram? |
6714 | What is it, Dave? |
6714 | What is it, Hiram? |
6714 | What is it-- a chase? |
6714 | What is it? |
6714 | What is it? |
6714 | What is that? |
6714 | What is your plan? |
6714 | What is? |
6714 | What news, Hiram? |
6714 | What now, Dave? |
6714 | What then, Hiram? |
6714 | What then? |
6714 | What was he doing? |
6714 | What was it, Hiram? |
6714 | What was it? |
6714 | What was that? |
6714 | What was the trouble? |
6714 | What you up to, Dashaway? |
6714 | What''s that for? |
6714 | What''s that? |
6714 | What''s that? |
6714 | What''s that? |
6714 | What''s that? |
6714 | What''s that? |
6714 | What''s the matter with you? |
6714 | What''s the news, Dave? |
6714 | What''s the programme? |
6714 | What''s the row? |
6714 | What''s the trouble now, I wonder? |
6714 | What''s the trouble, Dashaway? |
6714 | What''s your idea? |
6714 | When was that? |
6714 | When was that? |
6714 | When was this? |
6714 | When? |
6714 | Where are you going, Dave? |
6714 | Where did you come from, Mister? |
6714 | Where did you get it? |
6714 | Where else? 6714 Where is his office?" |
6714 | Where to? |
6714 | Where to? |
6714 | Where? |
6714 | Where? |
6714 | Where? |
6714 | Whew I what have you invited me to, Dave-- bath? |
6714 | Which you are going to do, Dave? |
6714 | Who are you? |
6714 | Who by? |
6714 | Who by? |
6714 | Who for? |
6714 | Who have? |
6714 | Who is he? |
6714 | Who is it from? |
6714 | Who is it, Hiram? |
6714 | Who is responsible for this? |
6714 | Who was it? |
6714 | Who was it? |
6714 | Who was it? |
6714 | Who would n''t, with any pride and that perfect machine? |
6714 | Why did n''t you tell me then? |
6714 | Why did n''t you wait and see this Col. Lyon in the city at his office? |
6714 | Why not, Hiram? |
6714 | Why not? |
6714 | Why not? |
6714 | Why not? |
6714 | Why so? |
6714 | Why so? |
6714 | Why, I thought he lived there? |
6714 | Why, what for? |
6714 | Why, what is all this? |
6714 | Why, where did the half breed come in? |
6714 | Why, will you? |
6714 | Why, you do n''t say so, Dashaway? |
6714 | Why,he chuckled,"you''re real friendly, are n''t you?" |
6714 | Why? |
6714 | Wo n''t Jerry''s employer tell you? |
6714 | Wonder what''s up? |
6714 | Yes, and what? |
6714 | Yes, but are you going to jog right into them and capture them? |
6714 | Yes, but what brought you here so early? |
6714 | Yes, but where? |
6714 | Yes? 6714 You are sure of that?" |
6714 | You came all the way from Columbus in a biplane? |
6714 | You can see what it is, ca n''t you? 6714 You did n''t give them any of the silk?" |
6714 | You did n''t see anything of Jerry Dawson? |
6714 | You do n''t know where they are going to telegraph to, Hiram? |
6714 | You do n''t mean before daylight? |
6714 | You do n''t suppose that the Dawsons and the Drifter are anywhere near here, do you? |
6714 | You found it, I suppose? |
6714 | You have been to the mainland? |
6714 | You have found out something? |
6714 | You have no trace of it? |
6714 | You know that this man, Ridgely, is a professional smuggler? |
6714 | You know the man you rescued he lake yesterday? |
6714 | You mean Col. Lyon''s place? |
6714 | You mean letting him go free? |
6714 | You mean north? |
6714 | You mean the Interstate works? |
6714 | You mean the young thief who called himself Briggs, and then Gregg? |
6714 | You received our telegram? |
6714 | You say it''s an airship? |
6714 | You studied that out, eh? 6714 You think so?" |
6714 | You think they had got over first? |
6714 | You wo n''t release us now? |
6714 | You wo n''t tell? |
6714 | You''ll look after the Racer and the hydroplane, wo n''t you, Hiram? |
6714 | You''ll need one, wo n''t you? |
6714 | You''re not going to wake anybody up at this outlandish hour? |
6714 | Alden?" |
6714 | All right, what have you got to say?" |
6714 | At the Dayton meet, were n''t you? |
6714 | CHAPTER II The"BABY RACER""You know all about it?" |
6714 | CHAPTER V A TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR ORDER"What''s happened?" |
6714 | CHAPTER VII A RESCUE IN THE FOG"What do your suppose that was?" |
6714 | CHAPTER X SOMETHING WRONG"What is it, Dave?" |
6714 | CHAPTER XII DAVE''S DISCOVERIES"You have got a badge like mine for sale, you say?" |
6714 | CHAPTER XX ACROSS THE BORDER"Did you see it?" |
6714 | Can it be possible that he has followed me? |
6714 | Dale?" |
6714 | Dale?" |
6714 | Dale?" |
6714 | Dale?" |
6714 | Dashaway, you remember that fellow who stole my watch and money and medal from you?" |
6714 | Dave, are we going to cross it?" |
6714 | Dawson?" |
6714 | Do n''t you see? |
6714 | Finally he exclaimed:"See here, Dave Dashaway, is that Greek you ca n''t make out, or have you gone to sleep?" |
6714 | Gasoline supply?" |
6714 | Got back? |
6714 | Grimshaw?" |
6714 | Have the Interstate people no theory as to the way the Drifter was stolen, and the motive for the theft?" |
6714 | He seemed anxious to change the conversation, for he said:"You are taking me to the Columbus aero field?" |
6714 | He''s a fine one, is n''t he?" |
6714 | Here, now?" |
6714 | Honorable mention, or was it a prize?" |
6714 | How did you get in here?" |
6714 | I acted on a wire from my employers, the Interstate Aeroplane Co.""Your employers?" |
6714 | I suppose it puts you back in your arrangements at the meet here?" |
6714 | If you want to be a sailor, why do n''t you enlist the navy?" |
6714 | It''s no different from yours, is it?" |
6714 | King?" |
6714 | King?" |
6714 | King?" |
6714 | King?" |
6714 | King?" |
6714 | King?" |
6714 | Need me?" |
6714 | Now then, what do you think?" |
6714 | Now then, young men, who are you?" |
6714 | Price?" |
6714 | Randolph?" |
6714 | Randolph?" |
6714 | Ridgely?" |
6714 | Ridgely?" |
6714 | Ridgely?" |
6714 | Ridgley?" |
6714 | Say, Dashaway, who''s working against us here or across the lake besides yourself?" |
6714 | Say, Dave,"questioned Hiram,"if he is some friend of the Dawson crowd, and has gone to tell them about us, what do you suppose they''ll do?" |
6714 | The clerk pushed a bulky volume across the marble slab of the counter, with the words:"Anybody special you are looking up?" |
6714 | The visitor stared about to locate Dave, and spoke the words:"That you, Dashaway?" |
6714 | Then he asked:"How can I reach Fernwood?" |
6714 | Then he burst out impetuously:"What is it, Dave?" |
6714 | Then his eye brightened and a cheery smile overspread his face, as he caught the words in a dearly familiar tone:"Say, do you want to kill a fellow?" |
6714 | Those shots?" |
6714 | What benefit can they hope to secure way off from civilization?" |
6714 | What have we drifted into?" |
6714 | What''s all this racket?" |
6714 | What''s the programme?" |
6714 | When shall we see you again?" |
6714 | Where is the thief?" |
6714 | Where is your machine?" |
6714 | Where you going, Dave?" |
6714 | You know Mr. Price, do n''t you?" |
6714 | You know he here night before last and left us then?" |
6714 | Your arm, Hiram?" |
6714 | he cried,"have I been--""Asleep at the switch?" |
6714 | mean, Hiram?" |
6714 | not knowing but what they were burglars?" |
6714 | smiled Dave--"smuggling?" |
6714 | submitted the inquisitive Hiram,"exhibitions?" |
6714 | what''s this?" |
30532 | A cripple? 30532 All right, is it?" |
30532 | Am I in on it? |
30532 | An earthquake, Carnes? |
30532 | And so Tina''s cage follows us-- as you hoped? |
30532 | And space is an empty void? 30532 And the effect will be?" |
30532 | And what will you do? |
30532 | And you''ve saved Diane?... 30532 Any luck, Carnes?" |
30532 | Are you all right down there? |
30532 | Are you crazy, Harkness? 30532 Are you hurt? |
30532 | Are you stopping now, Migul? |
30532 | Are you trying to leave me out? |
30532 | But is n''t it frightfully dangerous to carry in that form? |
30532 | But,I persisted,"suppose we tried to stop the cage?" |
30532 | By whom? |
30532 | By whom? |
30532 | Can you do it, Doctor? |
30532 | Chet, old man-- can''t you speak? 30532 Comfortable, Captain Bolton?" |
30532 | Could we bury a charge of explosive and blow it up? |
30532 | Did it speak to you like that, Mary? |
30532 | Did n''t think you could get away with it, did you? |
30532 | Did not you know it? |
30532 | Did you know that? |
30532 | Did you persuade the President to leave? |
30532 | Do n''t you know me, dear? |
30532 | Ever? |
30532 | George, shall we? |
30532 | Gone where? |
30532 | Has anything happened since you telephoned me? |
30532 | Have you any more of those lead clothes that I can wear? 30532 Have you found your means of combating him?" |
30532 | Herr Harkness? |
30532 | How about power? |
30532 | How did I get here? |
30532 | How do they propel themselves? |
30532 | How is it that the water does n''t fill the room? |
30532 | How''d you like that? |
30532 | I only hope he is garbed in the rebel white and blue-- eh, Tony? 30532 Is it a navy ship or the one we''re after?" |
30532 | Is it possible that you do not know? 30532 It will be pleasant to have him dead, eh, Migul?" |
30532 | Just where do you think you''re going? |
30532 | Lucky? |
30532 | Made it, did you? |
30532 | Meaning? |
30532 | Migul took you from 1935? |
30532 | More generosity? |
30532 | My God, Eric, how did you do it? |
30532 | My little Mistress Atwood, did you think because Tugh vanished that year the war began that you were done with him? 30532 Neat, is n''t it? |
30532 | Needs me? 30532 Nor my friend here?" |
30532 | Nothing between us and the Dark Moon? |
30532 | Nothing? |
30532 | Now where? |
30532 | Oh, you got here at last, did you? 30532 Once you locate it, how will you fight it?" |
30532 | Remember how my father was laughed at when he dared to vision the commerce of to- day? 30532 Ruth, will this fit your Uncle''s projectile?" |
30532 | Scared, Americansky? 30532 See that air- liner just diving into it? |
30532 | Sick? 30532 Sick?" |
30532 | So you have no master, Migul? |
30532 | So? |
30532 | Solved? |
30532 | Something else? |
30532 | Sure thing, but what''s the big idea? |
30532 | The cathode ray? 30532 Then how will you reach him to crush him? |
30532 | Then what did happen? |
30532 | Then, if friendly rivalry is impossible, would you consider, could there not be arranged-- a merger of our interests? 30532 There were things that ran-- men-- apes-- what were they?" |
30532 | This means we are entombed?--buried here? 30532 To 1777?" |
30532 | To meet heaven knows what dangers? 30532 To the same night from when you captured her?" |
30532 | To what Time are you taking us, then? |
30532 | To when have we reached? |
30532 | Up to you? 30532 Wait a few minutes, will you?" |
30532 | We are such stuff as dreams are made of....Do you in my Time of 1935 and thereabouts, have difficulty realizing such a statement? |
30532 | We''re beneath the surface, are n''t we? |
30532 | Well, as you doubtless know, you are most unwelcome.... You are watching the dials, Migul? |
30532 | Well, what is it now? 30532 Well?" |
30532 | What are you trying to tell me? |
30532 | What caused it? 30532 What did you find out last night?" |
30532 | What did you say about the cathode ray, Doctor? |
30532 | What do you make of these, Lassen? |
30532 | What do you mean? |
30532 | What does that lead to? |
30532 | What for? |
30532 | What happened up above? |
30532 | What is his name? |
30532 | What is it? |
30532 | What is it? |
30532 | What is it? |
30532 | What is your discharge rate? |
30532 | What next, Doctuh, suh? |
30532 | What on earth is this stuff, Doctor? |
30532 | What reply shall I make? |
30532 | What shall we do? |
30532 | What the dickens? |
30532 | What the hell are you dreaming about, Renaud? 30532 What was it?" |
30532 | What''s all this? 30532 What''s back of it all?" |
30532 | What''s that, Larry? 30532 What''s the matter, Doctor?" |
30532 | What''s the trouble, Carnes? |
30532 | What''s up, Doctor? |
30532 | What''s your name? |
30532 | What? |
30532 | When was Migul here, do you think? |
30532 | When will people learn that there is not, and in the nature of things never can be, a disintegrating ray? |
30532 | When? |
30532 | Where are you taking us? |
30532 | Where did you go when you left me in 1935? |
30532 | Where do you expect him to strike next? |
30532 | Who are you, anyway? |
30532 | Who did it? 30532 Why Washington?" |
30532 | Why be a fool? 30532 Why did n''t I think of that possibility before?" |
30532 | Why so? 30532 Why?" |
30532 | Why? |
30532 | Would you like to hear about it? |
30532 | Yes, but how is that going to help us? |
30532 | Yes? |
30532 | You are going to leave me-- us-- there? |
30532 | You had to see the end of the hunt-- be in at the death? |
30532 | You knew they were there? |
30532 | You mean you can not? 30532 You plan to take us, then, to what Time?" |
30532 | You saw something? |
30532 | You speak of Mademoiselle Vernier so familiarly? |
30532 | You will not harm him? |
30532 | You wish it very much, George Rankin? |
30532 | You would go alone? |
30532 | You''re all right, Mary? |
30532 | You''re going down? |
30532 | You''re going to pass yourself off as this man? 30532 Your rank?" |
30532 | _ Oh, have you not? 30532 ***** It spoke:You will know me again? |
30532 | *****"I presume that you can hear me as well?" |
30532 | *****"Once you locate him, how do you propose to attack him?" |
30532 | *****"Where do you suppose he will attack next, Doctor?" |
30532 | ; poor stories-- where are they? |
30532 | A coincidence? |
30532 | A door which could be opened to make adjustments of the mechanisms within? |
30532 | A man--""From 1935? |
30532 | A very wise man once said that"Variety is the spice of life,"so why not take a hint, some of you would- be brickbat pitchers, and pipe down? |
30532 | A whirlpool of what? |
30532 | Again I asked the Robot,"Who commands you?" |
30532 | And Chet was there, and the ship.... What had Chet said? |
30532 | And Chet-- Chet was up there at some hitherto untouched height, battling with-- what? |
30532 | And have you seen her? |
30532 | And now that you have had your first birthday, when are you going to start a quarterly? |
30532 | And the humans of the forest-- were there none of them here? |
30532 | And what was within it? |
30532 | And when are you going to have a sequel to"The Gray Plague,"by L. A. Eshbach which appeared in the November issue? |
30532 | And why had she been captured? |
30532 | Are you crazy? |
30532 | Are you seeing anything?" |
30532 | Behind, and above him, towering straight up-- my God!--what was it? |
30532 | Boxed in on all sides by such a barrier, how was I to get out word of the menace? |
30532 | Bruce, have you developed that new and infinitely powerful explosive you were working on?" |
30532 | But as it is the usual custom to do so here goes: Excellent stories-- all of the first five volumes; good stories-- who''s interested? |
30532 | But did she not know what this meant? |
30532 | But how? |
30532 | But that implies Time? |
30532 | But this Tugh-- was he armed? |
30532 | But what were they saying? |
30532 | But what would that life be? |
30532 | But where was Chet? |
30532 | But why, and how, scientifically do we progress along the Time- scroll? |
30532 | But why? |
30532 | But-- do you-- need me?" |
30532 | Can you do it as if something had happened to the shell?" |
30532 | Chet''s voice came sharp and clear:"Rescue switch-- ready?" |
30532 | Could I not leave the cage and do things in 1920 at the same time in my boyhood I was doing other things? |
30532 | Crazy dreams, Warrington? |
30532 | Diane?" |
30532 | Did a rock move? |
30532 | Did he not have to work and slave hour after hour, day after day and month after month to perfect it? |
30532 | Did they stop there?" |
30532 | Did you bring a car as I told you?" |
30532 | Did you ever run into anything like it?" |
30532 | Do you know how much energy is contained in matter? |
30532 | Do you think Charleston an especially dangerous place for him to be?" |
30532 | Do you understand?" |
30532 | Do you understand?" |
30532 | Do you understand?" |
30532 | Edwin C. Magnuson asks you what you print there: only letters praising your magazine to the skies? |
30532 | Exactly where was it, I wonder?" |
30532 | Finally, how could the atmosphere support a denser substance like the Heaviside Layer? |
30532 | Followed? |
30532 | Had I hit it? |
30532 | Had Jim hit me too hard? |
30532 | Had her clear, smiling eyes seen what occurred? |
30532 | Had it become aware of my thoughts? |
30532 | Had it heard my words? |
30532 | Had it to do with the Dark Moon? |
30532 | Had she some enemy? |
30532 | Had some human master set these controls? |
30532 | Had the ape- men been drawn there through curiosity at seeing their ship float down? |
30532 | Had there been any damage? |
30532 | Had they been set into some combination to give this monster its orders? |
30532 | Had they felt the shock? |
30532 | Had this peculiar formation of the ocean bed anything to do with the problem at hand? |
30532 | Have they found another gold- bricking officer to mess up my clean beds?" |
30532 | Have you been down in the hole, Carnes?" |
30532 | Have you set in motion every agency that the government has?" |
30532 | He tried to speak-- but what words could express the tumult of emotions that arose within him? |
30532 | How could I hope to surprise it? |
30532 | How did the power get to them? |
30532 | How did you do it?" |
30532 | How did you get here? |
30532 | How do you feel now?" |
30532 | How in hell_ did_ you get here?" |
30532 | How was it to be combatted even if our forces knew of the danger? |
30532 | How would you like to be melted away, piece by little piece, till you''re like that in there?" |
30532 | I managed,"Should I speak, and demand the meaning of this? |
30532 | I murmured,"He-- it-- that thing sitting there-- is that the one which captured you and brought you to 1935?" |
30532 | I said,"Have you a name?" |
30532 | I was inside the lines, but was my deception successful? |
30532 | I wonder if that were His purpose.... How, scientifically, do we progress along the Time- scroll? |
30532 | Ice coming down from the Poles? |
30532 | If he is n''t using a ray of some sort, what on earth is he using?" |
30532 | If the grim effect of the baleful green rays was universal in its extent, what then of old Emil Crawford and his niece, Ruth Lawton? |
30532 | If they know so much why do n''t they start a magazine and put all other publications out of business? |
30532 | Is it Tugh who controls you?" |
30532 | Is it understood?" |
30532 | Is that all clear?" |
30532 | Is that it?" |
30532 | Is that not true?" |
30532 | Is there any chance of our getting a story by Fred MacIsaac, Theodore Roscoe, or Erle Stanley Gardner? |
30532 | Is this perchance an explanation of why the pages of history are so thronged with tales of ghosts? |
30532 | Is this, perchance, what we call the phenomena of the supernatural? |
30532 | It looked like-- but no: how could water stand straight up like that, for hundreds of feet? |
30532 | It might have been policy to play him-- but what was the use? |
30532 | Mary said quaveringly:"What are you going to do?" |
30532 | Meanwhile, would you like to do a little more flying?" |
30532 | Mechanisms? |
30532 | Mr. Shea, ca n''t you see that the publication of first- class stories, as in this magazine, is the best possible way to popularize Science Fiction? |
30532 | Necessity knows no law.... What are the defenses around New York?" |
30532 | Oh, no: did I not promise differently? |
30532 | Or beasts?... |
30532 | Or do you simply prefer inferior stuff? |
30532 | Or had my face relaxed with the shock of the blow? |
30532 | Or has he read the chapter which Benjamin Franklin added to the Bible? |
30532 | Or if not that, how about publishing"our"magazine twice a month? |
30532 | Or was this girl, who laughed so lightly, playing with him? |
30532 | Or were my thoughts intangible vibrations registering upon some infinitely sensitive mechanism within that metal head? |
30532 | Refuse, and--""Yes?" |
30532 | She said firmly:"You will not hurt me?" |
30532 | Stop us now? |
30532 | Tell me-- you see how interested I am in your plans?--what did you say of the Dark Moon?" |
30532 | That voice-- where had I heard it before? |
30532 | The Robot said,"Is it clearing? |
30532 | The Thing that lay on the floor within-- could it ever have been a man? |
30532 | The axis of the Earth changing perhaps? |
30532 | The first of the great Glacial periods? |
30532 | The first test had been passed; would the other be as successful? |
30532 | The idea seemed tremendously amusing-- or was it that the simple rite indicated more than he could bear to know? |
30532 | The next shift waiting to go down? |
30532 | The paper and the page size of the magazine are okay, but why not smooth edges? |
30532 | The results were not fatal-- who said"unfortunately?" |
30532 | The room was swaying in long undulations, or was it my head? |
30532 | The thing reiterated,"Is that not true?" |
30532 | Then what had frightened them? |
30532 | There is metal, we know, that conducts an electric current in only one direction: why not a gas that will do the same with light?" |
30532 | Through refraction of light?... |
30532 | Time had passed; or had it? |
30532 | Tugh was in the room behind us, and I turned to him and asked:"What are you going to do?" |
30532 | Was I dreaming? |
30532 | Was I seeing things? |
30532 | Was it acting for the cripple Tugh? |
30532 | Was that to be the_ New York''s_ fate? |
30532 | Was the splotch of color-- that mottling of crimson and copper and gray-- a part of the metallic mass? |
30532 | Was there hope there? |
30532 | Was there life? |
30532 | Was this the reason for the silence? |
30532 | Was this true? |
30532 | Was this valley, so peaceful in its sunlit stillness, a place of death, from which all living things kept clear? |
30532 | We were loose: a sudden rush-- Dared I chance it? |
30532 | Well, why does n''t he? |
30532 | Were they controls? |
30532 | Were thoughts lurking in that metal skull? |
30532 | What I want to know is, why are so many mossbacks throwing brickbats? |
30532 | What animals, with the smaller stamp of modernity, were pressing here for supremacy? |
30532 | What are the defenses within fifty miles of New York?" |
30532 | What are you going to do about it?" |
30532 | What are you going to do?" |
30532 | What catastrophe did this herald? |
30532 | What could be their purpose? |
30532 | What could it be?--great ships out of space?--an invasion? |
30532 | What could that mean? |
30532 | What could warrant such disruption of the traffic of the world? |
30532 | What devil''s work was this that barred them from the safety of the ship? |
30532 | What did this mean? |
30532 | What do you mean?" |
30532 | What does it look like to you?" |
30532 | What does it matter if some of the stories are not on the scientific chalk line? |
30532 | What had happened there? |
30532 | What had happened? |
30532 | What happened?" |
30532 | What have you got here?" |
30532 | What in Heaven''s name does it all mean?" |
30532 | What is it?" |
30532 | What is my idea of an automaton? |
30532 | What is your name?" |
30532 | What is your program?" |
30532 | What mechanisms could make this thing think? |
30532 | What more do you want?" |
30532 | What must happen to the foreign body which had been introduced into the hole that is no longer a hole?" |
30532 | What of Chet? |
30532 | What of astronomy? |
30532 | What of his arrows and their detonite tips? |
30532 | What other horror had driven them in screaming terror to that fearful spring out into the open where they must have known danger awaited? |
30532 | What shall we do now?" |
30532 | What strange animals were here, roaming these dark primeval glades? |
30532 | What strange mechanisms were in there? |
30532 | What was happening behind that screen? |
30532 | What was in that head? |
30532 | What was the number of my cave? |
30532 | What weapons might be beneath that cloak? |
30532 | What were the sheets?--fabric as old- fashioned as the room, or were they cellulex? |
30532 | What would they find? |
30532 | What would you? |
30532 | What''s a meal more or less when you think of that?" |
30532 | What''s all our power for?" |
30532 | What''s his trouble?" |
30532 | What''s that?" |
30532 | What''s the story?" |
30532 | What, to me, was the life of this unknown Harl compared to the safety of Mary Atwood? |
30532 | What? |
30532 | When the final check- up came would there be two reports for one cave, none for another? |
30532 | Who can say, up to 1935, how many Time- traveling humans have come briefly back? |
30532 | Who is in this other cage which follows us?" |
30532 | Who''s going to stop us now?" |
30532 | Why ca n''t we see it from Earth? |
30532 | Why did it not make its presence known through interference? |
30532 | Why hours? |
30532 | Why is it dark?... |
30532 | Why not minutes?... |
30532 | Why not put out Astounding Stories twice a month, or make it a weekly? |
30532 | Why the long delay? |
30532 | Why was this matter not visible through telescopes? |
30532 | Why write those upon the scroll? |
30532 | Why, then, did He create ugliness and evil? |
30532 | Why? |
30532 | Will not? |
30532 | Williams, are those projectors all loaded?" |
30532 | Would he kill me if I crossed him?... |
30532 | Would he sense who I was? |
30532 | Would the guard before that building require a pass- word? |
30532 | Would the guard see him, or had he taken to shelter? |
30532 | Would the other cage come? |
30532 | Would they break through our defenses at last? |
30532 | Would you go back and deliver yourself into his hands-- because of me?" |
30532 | Writhing? |
30532 | Yet why must they be that? |
30532 | You do n''t believe me? |
30532 | You do n''t expect to drill down ahead of him?" |
30532 | You have ropes, of course?" |
30532 | You know what to do if Harl dares to follow and stop simultaneously?" |
30532 | You see this? |
30532 | You understand?" |
30532 | Your orders do not make it possible?" |
30532 | _ The vulnerable points!_ Where were they? |
30532 | gasped Bullard,"earthquake?--explosion? |
30532 | he asked,"--and you came up to warn me?" |
30532 | or occasional brickbats? |
19660 | ... You do n''t know it? 19660 A heavy- set, ruddy- faced, red- headed man?" |
19660 | A trigger- man? |
19660 | A welcoming committee, eh? |
19660 | Ah, now, did you so? |
19660 | All right, Master Mind, how''d you handle it, how would you? |
19660 | And just how far will you go for the Corps? |
19660 | And you are n''t? |
19660 | And you got all that from a bird? |
19660 | Any idea where he came from? |
19660 | Any of you been here before? |
19660 | Any special way you want it done? |
19660 | Anything I can do for you, sir? |
19660 | Anything yet? |
19660 | Are the natives all right? |
19660 | Are these trees and bushes conscious, too? |
19660 | Are we dreaming this, Thelma? |
19660 | Are you a member of the Inter- Stellar Corps? |
19660 | Are you seeing what I am in Nock''s mind? |
19660 | Are you sorry you made the choice you did-- to give all that up? |
19660 | Are you sure? |
19660 | Bees? |
19660 | Beg pardon, Mr. Hanlon, sir, but is anything wrong? |
19660 | But did you notice,Hanlon''s eyes were cloudy,"he does n''t say a thing anywhere about the part his planet or system were to play in the conquest?" |
19660 | But how can I prove anything when you''ve already made up your mind not to believe me? |
19660 | Can you dish it out, Mister? |
19660 | Can you do it? |
19660 | Can you find out what is happening on other parts of Guddu? |
19660 | Can you hear me, George Hanlon? |
19660 | Can you still hear me, George Hanlon? |
19660 | Come anywhere near what I was supposed to get out? |
19660 | D''you suppose that failing health and mind could have been caused, instead of natural? |
19660 | Did he say who was with him in this outrageous undertaking? |
19660 | Do I ask where I''m going? |
19660 | Do n''t you believe a Corpsman should use all his abilities in his service? |
19660 | Do they all produce the same ores as this one? |
19660 | Do you have a dog of your own here? |
19660 | Do you have any idea where your planet is located in space? 19660 Do you know a Mr. Panek? |
19660 | Do you know a planet named''Algon''or''Guddu''? |
19660 | Do you know what he was planning, Your Majesty? |
19660 | Do you think, Cadet Hanlon, that we would let any man get to within weeks of graduation without knowing all about him? |
19660 | Does it matter? |
19660 | Drunk, you mean? |
19660 | Find anything we want there, Captain? |
19660 | Fine words,snapped the leader,"but can you take it if the going gets tough?" |
19660 | For a thousand a month and keep? 19660 Full coverage?" |
19660 | Gypsy, eh? |
19660 | Has Trowbridge cracked that code yet? |
19660 | Have either of you any orders for me concerning the mopping up? |
19660 | Have those others got some sort of tractor beam? |
19660 | Have you forgotten about the special mail box for SS men? |
19660 | Have you got a half hour or so to talk, Mr. Philander, sir? |
19660 | He your pet, Pete? |
19660 | He''s boss, ai n''t he? |
19660 | Hey, those natives are partly vegetable, are n''t they? 19660 How about Cadet Hanlon? |
19660 | How big is this planet, anyway? 19660 How d''you do it?" |
19660 | How did I ever get such ability? |
19660 | How did he die? |
19660 | How did you get here so soon? |
19660 | How did you get your own box so quickly? |
19660 | How do I know? |
19660 | How do you suppose it happens I can, Dad? |
19660 | How does it happen I''ve never seen you around the buildings or grounds here? |
19660 | How''d I do? |
19660 | How''d you know it was a''she''? |
19660 | How... how''d you learn all that, sir? |
19660 | Huh? |
19660 | Huh? |
19660 | I ask ya, whatcha tryin''t''do, punk? |
19660 | I asked,the man''s tone was a little sharper,"if there was anything I could do for you?" |
19660 | I still ca n''t make out why? |
19660 | I wonder, then, what Bohr had in mind to bring such a man here like that? |
19660 | I wonder..."Yes? |
19660 | If it is n''t tiring you too much, Geck, please ask them if there is any building going on besides the smelters at the iron mines? |
19660 | If you can talk with your minds? |
19660 | Is he dead, Boss, is he? |
19660 | Is it ethical in such a purely personal matter, to use Corps funds? 19660 Is it something you can use?" |
19660 | Is it too late to get an audience with the emperor? |
19660 | Is the puppy all right? |
19660 | Is there more than one ship being built? |
19660 | Just what do you expect to do in the Corps, Mister? |
19660 | Just what will my duties be, sir? 19660 Just who is this''boss''who''s interested in me?" |
19660 | May I answer that, Sire? |
19660 | May we try it on my crew first, sir? |
19660 | Me? 19660 Me?" |
19660 | Mr. Philander, sir? 19660 Nine, eh?" |
19660 | No trouble? |
19660 | Not... not even graduate? |
19660 | Nothing to do but work, eh? |
19660 | Of course,stiffly punctilious,"only,"his eyes were still hard and stormy,"was it important enough to break mother''s heart?" |
19660 | Planning? 19660 Ready?" |
19660 | Saves money on feed bills, eh? |
19660 | Sell Gypsy? 19660 Ships? |
19660 | Should I be? |
19660 | So th''fair- haired boy''s also a animal trainer, eh? |
19660 | So, you got back? |
19660 | Space ships, you mean? |
19660 | Still harping on that? |
19660 | That bad, is it? |
19660 | The Service has it all thought out, has n''t it? |
19660 | The food stuff? |
19660 | The grub here any good? 19660 The people of Simonides like the empire status-- why should anyone here on Terra object?" |
19660 | The... the Secret Service, sir? 19660 Then it wo n''t particularly bother you if we... uh... keep your destination a secret for a while?" |
19660 | Then why do n''t you listen to me instead of taking the word of this slime- snake who calls himself an instructor? 19660 Then you think he may be back of this whatever- it- is?" |
19660 | Then you wo n''t want to come back? |
19660 | Think you''re that good, eh? 19660 Those do?" |
19660 | Tractors? |
19660 | Trouble? |
19660 | Trowbridge? 19660 Try''n''a show up us other guards? |
19660 | Want me along, sir? |
19660 | Want the doctor to look you over again? |
19660 | Want to come with me, Dad? |
19660 | Was I supposed to have some? |
19660 | We got here in time, then? |
19660 | We lost many? |
19660 | Well? |
19660 | What about his Prime Minister... and by the way, what was his name? 19660 What about that fleet you say is being built on... on some other planet?" |
19660 | What about the emperor, sir? |
19660 | What about the mines and factories? |
19660 | What about the natives? 19660 What about those near the places where the ships were being built?" |
19660 | What did you learn? |
19660 | What do I do in a case like this? |
19660 | What do the shock- rods do to you? |
19660 | What do you mean by that? |
19660 | What do you mean so quickly? 19660 What does it do to them?" |
19660 | What gives you that idea? |
19660 | What happened to you, Patrick? |
19660 | What if one of them is sick? |
19660 | What is that? |
19660 | What makes you think I''m not on the up and up? 19660 What sort of metal huts?" |
19660 | What toogan? |
19660 | What were you doing in the bank this morning? |
19660 | What''d the Big Brass Bull want, Han? |
19660 | What''ll we do with the bodies? |
19660 | What''s all this about, sir? 19660 What''s going on here?" |
19660 | What''s going on here? |
19660 | What''s ridiculous, Boss, what is? |
19660 | What''s the big idea of all this? 19660 What''s the difference between being killed cleanly in a fight, as against a lifetime in prison, or a firing squad?" |
19660 | What''s the excitement? |
19660 | What''s the gag, Dad? |
19660 | What''s the matter with that pilot? |
19660 | What''s the matter? |
19660 | What''s this all about, Hanlon? |
19660 | What''s wrong? |
19660 | What''sa idea drivin''yer crew up t''three an''a half er four? |
19660 | What, again? |
19660 | What... what do you mean, sir? |
19660 | What? 19660 What?" |
19660 | What? |
19660 | When and how did you get this? |
19660 | Where do I send it, and to whom? |
19660 | Where do the passengers keep their pets? |
19660 | Where you used me to further your schemes, eh? |
19660 | Where''s the super''s office? |
19660 | Where''s this Kentucky and what''s a mint- julep? |
19660 | Who are these men... and what in Snyder''s name happened to them? |
19660 | Who are you, anyway? |
19660 | Who are you, huh, and what''s your game, what''s your game? |
19660 | Who d''you suppose sicced the dog on him? 19660 Who did it?" |
19660 | Who is trying to kill me? |
19660 | Who was that? |
19660 | Who''d bother t''try? |
19660 | Why did he say they were building them elsewhere than on this planet? |
19660 | Why do n''t he flip her over and beat it? |
19660 | Why do you torture yourself like this? 19660 Why not some of all three?" |
19660 | Why should he get off free iffen th''rest of us do n''t? |
19660 | Why''re you so hipped on that subject? |
19660 | Why,Abrams really looked at Hanlon for the first time,"you''re the young man who saved my life on Terra, are n''t you?" |
19660 | Why? |
19660 | Why? |
19660 | Will the queen do? |
19660 | Will you want me any more, sir? |
19660 | Wonder why he''s in this, feeling that way? |
19660 | Yeah? |
19660 | Yes? |
19660 | You do? |
19660 | You got any books on board? 19660 You have n''t been in the SS very long, have you, Hanlon?" |
19660 | You mean, even a thing like this merely goes in there? |
19660 | You miss the uniform, do n''t you, Spence? |
19660 | You probably know already, so why ask me? 19660 You think you can tell me how to run my job?" |
19660 | You want the whole thing written out for you in black and white? |
19660 | You, George? 19660 You... you mean they''d let a pup like me issue commands to the whole Corps?" |
19660 | Your bar here serve Cola? |
19660 | Your men here yet? |
19660 | *****"Why... how... what d''you mean, huh, what d''you mean?" |
19660 | A Professor Panek, I believe...""Panek?" |
19660 | A moment''s silence, then"Do you still want that overseer''s job?" |
19660 | A real one, not a dub like himself? |
19660 | A toogan? |
19660 | Also, what about Abrams? |
19660 | Am I some sort of a mutant? |
19660 | And Spence, did I remember to tell you how proud I am of you?" |
19660 | And credits in quantity is what I''m after...""What''s that got to do with me, huh, what has it?" |
19660 | And if so, how could he locate any of them, tonight, with whom he could possibly communicate? |
19660 | And why was he here in the first place? |
19660 | Any rules against my going down there and looking at''em? |
19660 | Anything to make you... hey,''Newton''? |
19660 | Are you all settled and comfortable?" |
19660 | Are you willing to be tested under a truth drug?" |
19660 | Are you...?" |
19660 | As the two went outside, the Simonidean asked curtly,"Wine, women or song?" |
19660 | Better get Trowbridge on it anyway, had n''t we?" |
19660 | Better use a disguise and different name, had n''t you?" |
19660 | Better''n me at bumping off a man, huh? |
19660 | Better''n me?" |
19660 | But about His Highness-- was he top man?" |
19660 | But could he believe this now... after all those dreadful years? |
19660 | But how on earth did you ever teach him so quickly?" |
19660 | But how... how could they?" |
19660 | But if so, how or why? |
19660 | But the question is: will you work with me?" |
19660 | But what about the others? |
19660 | But what did it mean? |
19660 | But why? |
19660 | By the way, would you sell me the puppy?" |
19660 | Can do?" |
19660 | Can you fix so all we can have?" |
19660 | Can you give me any dope on it?" |
19660 | Caused?" |
19660 | Chapter 11 A black look suffused the leader''s face at Hanlon''s impertinent"can you dish it out, Mister?" |
19660 | Did I slip somewhere? |
19660 | Did cats or horses-- or birds or insects-- have brains that worked the same as the dogs? |
19660 | Did n''t have any trouble, eh?" |
19660 | Did that mean what he was afraid it meant? |
19660 | Did this mean, he wondered disconsolately as he went to his stateroom, that he was to be a failure in the Secret Service? |
19660 | Did you also know he was n''t human-- that he was an alien from some...""Not human? |
19660 | Did you forget to lock the gates?" |
19660 | Did you know about all the warships he was building on Algon?" |
19660 | Did you know he was secretly building a great war fleet on another planet?" |
19660 | Did you think your mine was all there was there? |
19660 | Distance-- let''s see? |
19660 | Do they eat then, too?" |
19660 | Do you have your own servant?" |
19660 | Do you hear me? |
19660 | Do you play? |
19660 | Do you suppose I can take it, and not give the show away?" |
19660 | Do you want to bunk here at Base?" |
19660 | Do you want to resign, or will you force me to take you to the commandant?" |
19660 | Does he especially need today''s lesson?" |
19660 | First, let me ask you, did you know who''His Highness''really was?" |
19660 | For if he could control animals-- would it work on birds, or insects? |
19660 | Had he been so treated by the Corps experts that his mind would be blanked out in such emergencies? |
19660 | Had n''t the hypnosis worked on him? |
19660 | Had they all been killed? |
19660 | Have the experts got''em figured out yet?" |
19660 | Have they got wind of what I''ve learned? |
19660 | Hawarden gasped, and Hanlon added,"We mean, was he alone in it, or was some other planet or system backing him?" |
19660 | He caught a fragment of thought--"another one after my job?" |
19660 | He could n''t think of a single reg he had broken-- yet why else would he be called before Admiral Rogers, the dread Commandant of Cadets? |
19660 | He had been so proud here... how could he possibly stand giving it all up? |
19660 | He had made a clean score with that reckless"can you dish it out, Mister?" |
19660 | He looked at Hanlon a long moment, then asked sharply,"How did Rellos die?" |
19660 | He repeated his query, dully,"An alien?" |
19660 | He signalled Hawarden to one side, and asked in a whisper,"What''s a toogan?" |
19660 | He started to turn the set off, then, as he heard Hanlon ask"Anything else now?" |
19660 | He wondered what it was-- perhaps some alien animal- life very low in the scale? |
19660 | Hmmm, I wonder?... |
19660 | How about Bohr''s notes?" |
19660 | How could anything possibly make up for losing the respect and friendship of everyone he had ever known? |
19660 | How could he fit into such an organization? |
19660 | How in the name of Snyder was such a thing possible? |
19660 | How long does the job last?" |
19660 | How was he to get that location? |
19660 | How''d he ever get here to Sime?" |
19660 | How''d you like to go back to Sime and try explaining to His Highness why you''re not getting out as much stuff as''s been proved possible?" |
19660 | I command you to tell me, are you a Corpsman?" |
19660 | I mean, do you know the suns closest to yours, anything about their distances or magnitudes?" |
19660 | I mean, it is n''t one of those... those radium ores that make a fellow sterile, is it? |
19660 | I never heard him called anything but''His Highness''?" |
19660 | I suppose the cruiser Commander will let me ride with him?" |
19660 | I''m not prying if you do n''t want to talk, but should n''t I warn all the men who saw it, to keep quiet?" |
19660 | If I was a John Law would I merely have stopped you? |
19660 | If he''s in your way, together we oughta be able to get rid of him... but let''s play it safe, eh?" |
19660 | Incidentally, was n''t it rather straining coincidence that it was an admiral who came along just in time to save you? |
19660 | Incidentally, what about this... Philander, did you say his name was? |
19660 | Is it another of your pets, Boss?" |
19660 | It is n''t anything dangerous, is it? |
19660 | It''s almost like you do n''t trust me, or something?" |
19660 | Just how, Mister, do you think you can get away with cheating at a final examination?" |
19660 | Let''s see, now, how did I do it?" |
19660 | Like trees that can move and think?" |
19660 | May I talk with your planetographers, please?" |
19660 | Now, do you mind? |
19660 | Now, how could he best turn that to his advantage? |
19660 | Oh, oh, was that"failure"he had also read in Panek''s mind that unsuccessful attempt he, Hanlon, had thwarted? |
19660 | On Algon?" |
19660 | Or have you delegated the handling of us guards to some lesser man?" |
19660 | Or was that name"Algon"merely one the super used in place of the real one he did n''t know he knew? |
19660 | Or, again, could it be that he was so well trusted that the knowledge had not been sealed off from him? |
19660 | Or, he brightened momently, could he develop other methods of ferreting out information? |
19660 | Or-- and Hanlon almost caught his breath in momentary fear-- was this ape a mind reader? |
19660 | Or-- startling thought-- was he actually a human being at all? |
19660 | Perhaps... but if that was the case, why let him get here at all? |
19660 | Planning? |
19660 | Prime Minister of Simonides, of course... but you said''was''?" |
19660 | Should he go to some other planet? |
19660 | Surely, the fact that as a child he was supposed to have been a mind- reader was n''t enough... or was it, from their standpoint? |
19660 | That''s why it hurt... say, now I can change my name back, ca n''t I? |
19660 | The main thing is, will you consent to the plan I''ve suggested?" |
19660 | The stock and insurance policy in my own box are decoys, eh?" |
19660 | Then, abruptly,"Are you sure that was truth- serum in that hypodermic?" |
19660 | These your bags?" |
19660 | They are fine, friendly people.... You''ll rendezvous the fleet immediately? |
19660 | Uh... got any money to buy those you do n''t have?" |
19660 | Was Panek-- and through him this as- yet- unmet leader-- behind that attempt on Abrams''life? |
19660 | Was he part-- perhaps head-- of the plot? |
19660 | Was he some kind of a mutant with powers never before known? |
19660 | Was he to become another victim of one of the leader''s"little accidents"? |
19660 | Was he used to mind- reading, so that he had developed a defense against it? |
19660 | Was it because he already knew that mind''s pattern, he wondered? |
19660 | Was n''t it rather peculiar you were not harmed by any of those ferocious bees?" |
19660 | Was the guy human-- or did he have a mind- control of some sort? |
19660 | Was the victim another? |
19660 | Was this a bona- fide job, or a trap? |
19660 | Was this part of what he was being sent to Simonides to investigate? |
19660 | What about Philander? |
19660 | What are you, an animal trainer?" |
19660 | What business did he have, mixing with mature, deadly killers such as these? |
19660 | What chance did he have now? |
19660 | What did he know about detective work? |
19660 | What is it?" |
19660 | What kind of torture was this, anyway? |
19660 | What made you bring that up?" |
19660 | What planet was the man talking about? |
19660 | What sort of talents and abilities did he possess, that he could react thus to a truth- serum? |
19660 | What was he to do? |
19660 | What was their game? |
19660 | What were the Corps''top brass thinking of, anyway, to put so much on an untried kid just out of school? |
19660 | What will be my apparent status before the crews doing the searching?" |
19660 | What you wish to know?" |
19660 | What''s so important you have to get me out of bed?" |
19660 | What''s that leader got in his devious mind, anyway?" |
19660 | What''s this all about?" |
19660 | What''sa big idea, gettin''out more ore''n we do?" |
19660 | When the peephole opened he asked,"The Boss in?" |
19660 | When they left Hanlon asked,"Want to finish the game-- or rather, since the board was upset, want to play another?" |
19660 | Where do I find you there?" |
19660 | Where does the SS get''em?" |
19660 | Where was"here?" |
19660 | Where were all those"vast rewards"his dad and Admiral Rogers had talked about so eloquently? |
19660 | Where''d you think it was, on Andromeda Seven?" |
19660 | While they were waiting for the bird, Hanlon asked,"What about the new ships? |
19660 | Who was he? |
19660 | Who was this amazing young man? |
19660 | Who was this"he,"and why had Hanlon better pray"he"liked him? |
19660 | Who... or what... was he? |
19660 | Why could n''t he contact them? |
19660 | Why did n''t that monster say something? |
19660 | Why did they want to send him away? |
19660 | Why did you let him think you were still a Corpsman... if you''re not?" |
19660 | Why do n''t you think he''ll need punishment?" |
19660 | Why do you ask?" |
19660 | Why had he been selected? |
19660 | Why must he be burdened with such a load as they had tied onto him? |
19660 | Why was I, so drastically different from them, chosen as a guard? |
19660 | Why? |
19660 | Why?" |
19660 | Will that make a difference?" |
19660 | Would he thus get best leads? |
19660 | Would that part of his mind then be lost? |
19660 | Would the Corps officers have gone home? |
19660 | You have no objections to travel?" |
19660 | You may remember you once asked me if I could''dish it out''? |
19660 | You mean something else beyond ruling Simonides through me, or possibly supplanting me entirely?" |
19660 | You want to get in with the gang, is that it?" |
19660 | _ Eighteen!_ For what purpose was such a fleet being built? |
19660 | _ Why did n''t those pigeons hurry?_ Yet he knew they were searching frantically. |
19660 | alien?" |
19660 | he asked Geck in wonder,"why do you bother to speak with the voice to each other?" |
31893 | A confession of his? |
31893 | All well, Alent? 31893 Alone?" |
31893 | Am I not, Larry? |
31893 | And Manape? |
31893 | And if your people there are in trouble, in danger-- you will let me help? |
31893 | And ready-- for everything else? |
31893 | And the one thing we must do? |
31893 | And the one thing? |
31893 | And what are you going to do with us in the meantime? 31893 And who is this?" |
31893 | And why should n''t I be here attending to my own affairs? 31893 Are ye assembled, frogfolk, that ye may hear the decision of your Thinking Ones?" |
31893 | Are you doing any flying? |
31893 | Are you in your right mind? |
31893 | Back? |
31893 | But how? 31893 But how?" |
31893 | But why would he have gone, Tina? |
31893 | But why,I asked soothingly,"should you wish to kill anyone? |
31893 | Ca n''t you see that there are things not even you should do? 31893 Can you climb, Ellen?" |
31893 | Coincidence? 31893 Dearer than the Paste of Strange Dreams?" |
31893 | Did we do that? |
31893 | Did you find Migul and his captives-- the girl from 1777 and the man of 1935? |
31893 | Did you try? |
31893 | Do we go in here, or keep on ahead? |
31893 | Do you know the underground route? |
31893 | Do you mean,I said slowly, trying to understand what he had babbled forth,"that you have come out of the past? |
31893 | Does Lee Bentley love me? |
31893 | Does the Old Wise One learn wisdom at last? |
31893 | Earth year, you mean? |
31893 | Even in this age of yours they have not discovered that secret? |
31893 | Frightened, Tina? |
31893 | From when did you come? |
31893 | Good God, what does it mean, anyway? |
31893 | Have I not? |
31893 | Have n''t you guessed the reason for my interest in your engines of destruction? 31893 Have ye brought the paste of evil to our abode, knowing well the strict proscription of our tribe? |
31893 | Have you discovered there is no use opposing me, Bentley? |
31893 | How are you going to go back to your own period-- your own era? |
31893 | How can a man leave his own age and travel ahead to another? |
31893 | How do you know all this? |
31893 | How have you come to have the cage, Tugh? |
31893 | How, Mary? |
31893 | I wonder how the old man will take it when the world reads that the_ Bengal Queen_ went down with all on board? 31893 I''m sorry,"I commented,"to be an ungracious host, but I am wondering what your plans may be? |
31893 | In here? |
31893 | In our world, Tugh? |
31893 | Interested in them? |
31893 | Is it dark, Tina? 31893 Is it far, Princess? |
31893 | Is it what you wanted? |
31893 | Is that what you call it when you''ve just heard that it committed murder? 31893 Is that what you call searching for Migul?" |
31893 | It would be fearful to be marooned here permanently, would n''t it? 31893 Kind of jumpy, eh? |
31893 | Like any dumb strapper, you''ve got your mind made up, ai n''t you? 31893 May I take you and this friend of yours home, Princess?" |
31893 | Morones? |
31893 | Must we go the way of England, of France, of all Europe? 31893 Mystery?" |
31893 | Nargyll, what did your master do with the visitor? |
31893 | News to you, eh, Morones? 31893 No Robots in or about it? |
31893 | No harm must come to the body of Lee, you understand? 31893 Now, Migul?" |
31893 | Oh, Bentley,he called after a long interval of silence,"do you like the odor of violets? |
31893 | Overhead? |
31893 | Perhaps you can arrange for guides for us? |
31893 | Princess, is it you? |
31893 | Rascally? |
31893 | Ready now? |
31893 | Ready? |
31893 | See this? 31893 Shall we return to the other room?" |
31893 | So Harl made a confession, Princess? |
31893 | So? 31893 Tell me,"he commanded sharply,"what year is this?" |
31893 | That grave? |
31893 | That,she said,"is none--""Of my affair? |
31893 | The savage died in the interest of science? |
31893 | They are ready for the demonstration at the palace? |
31893 | This experiment of yours,said Bentley when the period of silence became unbearable,"--won''t you tell us about it?" |
31893 | Tina, see here-- isn''t there something we can do? |
31893 | Trouble? 31893 Valueless ye call the white sap?" |
31893 | Was Alent at his post in the passage to the Robot caverns? |
31893 | What are you doing here_ now_? |
31893 | What difference does it make-- a few hours or a day? 31893 What do I care about them?" |
31893 | What do you mean by that? |
31893 | What do you mean, this particular one? |
31893 | What do you mean? |
31893 | What do you mean? |
31893 | What do you mean? |
31893 | What do you want to know? |
31893 | What do you want? |
31893 | What do you want? |
31893 | What happened to the factor who was here before you? |
31893 | What is it? |
31893 | What is it? |
31893 | What is that you said? |
31893 | What is this? |
31893 | What matter? |
31893 | What mystery is there about Harl? |
31893 | What of my memories? |
31893 | What shall I do? |
31893 | What''d you do with the bodies? |
31893 | What''s the matter with you? |
31893 | Where are the man and girl whom Migul stole? |
31893 | Where did you leave Harl and the two visitors? |
31893 | Where is Harl''s room? |
31893 | Where is Harl? |
31893 | Where is Morones? |
31893 | Where is he now? 31893 Where?" |
31893 | Which way next? |
31893 | Which way, Tina? 31893 Who invited you?" |
31893 | Who is Paul? |
31893 | Who''ll get me? |
31893 | Who''ll get me? |
31893 | Will you be good enough to answer my question? 31893 Will you not tell us what you are going to do with us?" |
31893 | Will you two be good enough to excuse me? 31893 Would that be satisfactory to Bentley, I wonder?" |
31893 | Yes, sir? |
31893 | You approve of my little plan to dominate the world? |
31893 | You are feeling better? |
31893 | You are not married? |
31893 | You choose to be mysterious, sir? |
31893 | You come from future Time? |
31893 | You did n''t find out where he went? |
31893 | You give me orders? |
31893 | You give me your word of honor as a gentleman not to oppose me? |
31893 | You have not mentioned this affair to anyone, Shiro? |
31893 | You hear him? |
31893 | You mean to say,we asked,"that the pup is now roaming around somewhere in the Twenty- second Century?" |
31893 | You mean your brain is Bentley''s brain, and that Bentley''s body holds the brain of a great ape? |
31893 | You mean,said Ellen huskily,"that Lee Bentley there is really an ape?" |
31893 | You never heard of him again? |
31893 | You realize, of course, that you''re not going back? |
31893 | You think my friends will be rescued? |
31893 | You told them about me? |
31893 | You travel the Universe, I gather, and yet your scientists have not yet learned to move in time? 31893 You understand that no matter what the Apeman does, you must not try to slay him?" |
31893 | You want me to take her away from Bentley and give her to you? |
31893 | You want to come out and go into the front room? |
31893 | You were below just now in the lower passages? |
31893 | You will make no attempt to injure me? |
31893 | You will see that it is not in vain? |
31893 | You would like to see the Apeman?--the creature that looks so much like you that it will be like peering at yourself in the mirror? 31893 You''ll be careful, Tina?" |
31893 | You''re not too tired? |
31893 | _ Bien, mon cher ami_,he told me-- he was as apt to drop into French as Russian or any of a dozen other languages--"a name-- what is it? |
31893 | ***** But what could Bentley do? |
31893 | ***** But who was"Paul?" |
31893 | ***** How could he take the pugnacity out of Apeman without destroying him? |
31893 | ***** How long would Barter wait before making his next move? |
31893 | ***** If Manape were to attempt first aid for Apeman, how would such a sight react upon Ellen Estabrook? |
31893 | ***** Morones''smile might have been a grin of satisfaction, at Olear''s question:"Is that all you''ve bought since the last freighter was here?"'' |
31893 | ***** What was Barter doing now? |
31893 | *****"Coincidence?" |
31893 | *****"You see?" |
31893 | 5--Drayle''s question( page 124)"Have you arranged the elements?" |
31893 | A storm of nature? |
31893 | Also, when our people make an interplanetary flight, would we go with intent to kill? |
31893 | Am I correct?" |
31893 | And again she demanded of Tugh,"I ask you, where is Harl?" |
31893 | And even their leaders, who had sometimes opposed-- were they not kind at heart? |
31893 | And how could he fight? |
31893 | And if he were to enunciate words that Ellen could understand, what then? |
31893 | And if to to- morrow, why not to next year, next century? |
31893 | And that grave behind the cabin, who or what is it?" |
31893 | And the document? |
31893 | And you come shooting off-- trying to make out I stole the''lucene and killed those two fellows, eh? |
31893 | And, armed with the white- ray, once I get into the place-- You see that I am clever, do n''t you?" |
31893 | Are my eyes betraying me, or is this a nightmare from which I shall waken presently? |
31893 | Are those lights ahead at the Power House entrance?" |
31893 | Are you happy and satisfied-- with what your brothers do with women?" |
31893 | As for you, you''ll leave here when I bid you, and not before, understand? |
31893 | Astounding Stories is O. K. Why do we want a lot of deep science with our stories? |
31893 | But how could she believe, even if a way were discovered? |
31893 | But if Manape thought you desired his friendship for Bentley...?" |
31893 | But seriously, do n''t you think that affairs of the heart are very much out of place in"our"type of magazine? |
31893 | But what did he use for anesthesia? |
31893 | But what? |
31893 | But what? |
31893 | But with his gibberish was he actually conversing with them? |
31893 | But would Apeman stand the journey? |
31893 | But would her mind stand up under the awfulness of it? |
31893 | But would not Ellen die of fright at being borne away through the jungle in the arms of an ape? |
31893 | But you and Harl knew that?" |
31893 | But, if he strode toward her now, how would Barter explain that Manape had understood his words? |
31893 | By the way, I wonder who drew the illustration for this story? |
31893 | Ca n''t we send a squad of police after Migul?--go with them-- actually make an effort to find them? |
31893 | Ca n''t you see that, man? |
31893 | Caleb Barter? |
31893 | Could he force those hands to something else? |
31893 | Could he, after all, be a madman? |
31893 | Could n''t abandon this post to the wogglies, could we? |
31893 | Could they cross the Atlantic with their enormous load of armored hull, or must they be transported? |
31893 | Demented, or obsessed with some strange purpose? |
31893 | Did I not invent these dials?" |
31893 | Did he dare try? |
31893 | Did they think now that they would find us passive and unresisting? |
31893 | Did they want to take our cities undamaged? |
31893 | Did you empty them?" |
31893 | Did you ever notice that 75% of all the Readers who say they do not care for science in their stories are women? |
31893 | Do n''t you understand that some things should be left entirely in the hands of God?" |
31893 | Do you believe me to be a child, or a weakling? |
31893 | Do you realize that you are being rather absurd?" |
31893 | Do you suppose we''d all get locked up for experimenting with this sort of thing fictionally? |
31893 | Do you think you can confuse me, turn me from my purpose, with words? |
31893 | Do you want me to tell you a secret? |
31893 | Do you wonder now that I am unnerved?" |
31893 | Do you? |
31893 | Does he despise me for so freely admitting my love? |
31893 | Going to finish me next, I suppose?" |
31893 | Had Barter foreseen all that? |
31893 | Had he walked in his sleep, drawn by some freak of his subconscious mind into the room of Manape? |
31893 | Had they not checked the advance of an irresistible army to give him and his new weapon an opportunity to open the eyes of the people? |
31893 | Has he any feeling about it at all? |
31893 | Has his mind completely gone?" |
31893 | Have you seen the Council about it to- day?" |
31893 | He added earnestly,"Do not you think we waste time? |
31893 | He himself had said that he had prayed to"them"for delay; that in a few weeks he would do-- what?... |
31893 | His ape brain would warn him, but would his human strength avail in case of necessity, in case of attack by another ape, or a four- footed carnivore? |
31893 | How about it, boys? |
31893 | How am I to understand? |
31893 | How better can he learn than by watching our behavior?" |
31893 | How came Bentley in this room? |
31893 | How can I know? |
31893 | How can you do such a horrible thing?" |
31893 | How could Bentley render the travesty unconscious and yet make sure that Apeman did not die? |
31893 | How could he kiss this woman whom he loved with the gross lips of Manape, the great ape? |
31893 | How could he tell her his love when his voice was such as to frighten the very wild beasts of the jungle? |
31893 | How could he tell? |
31893 | How could she know that she was actually in the power of an ape, and that her loved one actually pursued to save her? |
31893 | How long had he held this great ape in captivity? |
31893 | How shall I proceed from this moment on? |
31893 | How shall I procure food for Ellen? |
31893 | How would she react to the horrible thing he had told her? |
31893 | How? |
31893 | I had work to do; why should I neglect it to go scuttling home because someone who feared these swarming rats had begged me to run for cover? |
31893 | I may be master of the world; who knows? |
31893 | I said to myself, why should a man be a helpless stick upon the stream of time? |
31893 | I suppose you''ve long since decided that way, Lee?" |
31893 | I wonder what?" |
31893 | If Manape were to attempt to take Apeman back to Caleb Barter, leading the way for Ellen, would she follow, and what would his action tell her? |
31893 | If Tina did not return, what would he do? |
31893 | If he did, then what would he do next? |
31893 | If he left the apes in the hands of the natives, what then? |
31893 | If the Readers want reprints why does n''t Mr. Clayton publish an annual chock full of reprints for these reprint hounds? |
31893 | If there were anyone in the jungle back of them, why had he or they failed to challenge them? |
31893 | If they went wild through the native village, slaying and laying waste, would Bentley be responsible for loss of life? |
31893 | In other words, why can he not slip back through time to yesterday; or ahead to to- morrow? |
31893 | Is everybody so pleased with your book that you receive nothing but commendatory letters? |
31893 | Is it some weird fever? |
31893 | Is the Power House well guarded by humans?" |
31893 | It would not be easy to be brave, would it? |
31893 | It''s by Jack Williamson: need more be said? |
31893 | Just think, would we, if we received visitors from space, make war on them? |
31893 | Just why do you permit your Authors to inject messy love affairs into otherwise excellent imaginative fiction? |
31893 | Larry here? |
31893 | Larry whispered:"What does this mean, Tina?" |
31893 | Long enough for Apeman to be well of his illness, so that he might observe what havoc an ape''s brain might work with a human body? |
31893 | Long enough for Ellen to accustom herself to life among the apes? |
31893 | Long enough to allow the brain of Bentley to discover what miracles intellect might do with the body of Manape? |
31893 | Now, with your kind permission, I will burst into the little(?) |
31893 | Oh, I know that he was you-- but where would all three of us have been had it not been for the powerful body of Manape, the great ape? |
31893 | Or did violets possess odor? |
31893 | Or had disaster come upon us all?... |
31893 | Or had mankind strangely turned decadent, and rushed back in a hundred years or so to savagery? |
31893 | Or is this too feeble a simile? |
31893 | Or the heart? |
31893 | Or would the cunning of Apeman, denizen of the jungle, warn him against any such? |
31893 | Or would they race for the jungle to escape? |
31893 | Or, rather, as it would have been yesterday had you looked into a mirror?" |
31893 | Perhaps you can lead us to food and water?" |
31893 | Princess? |
31893 | Purposely, I mean?" |
31893 | Say, did n''t they have any dumber strappers around than you? |
31893 | See the blood on his shoulders?" |
31893 | Shall I tell you why?" |
31893 | She whispered to Larry,"I think it is best, do n''t you?" |
31893 | So what are you going to do about it?" |
31893 | Suppose his man''s brain harbored thoughts of vengeance on enemies, and he now possesses the might of the great ape to carry out his vengeance? |
31893 | Suppose they swept over Africa like a cloud of locusts? |
31893 | Suppose you were taken out of the wilds and dropped into a ballroom?" |
31893 | Tell me, why did you drive him off?" |
31893 | That is an order-- understand?" |
31893 | That is my conception of it; is it clear to you?" |
31893 | The men of the fighting planes were marked for death; one read it in their eyes; but who of us was not? |
31893 | The other door? |
31893 | The questions which turned over and over in Bentley''s mind were these: How shall I tell Ellen the truth? |
31893 | The voices were thanking God-- for what? |
31893 | Then what does he do? |
31893 | Then:"Surrender?" |
31893 | There are other ways of... figuring time now?" |
31893 | Thinking then that the travesty in there with her-- with Bentley''s body-- was really Bentley, to what lengths might she not be persuaded in her love? |
31893 | This, I take it, is a ship for navigating space?" |
31893 | Tina gasped,"Where are our visitors-- the young man and the girl?" |
31893 | Tina said to him:"Johns, what is being done?" |
31893 | Tugh has not passed back?" |
31893 | Understand?" |
31893 | Understand?" |
31893 | Was Barter smiling to himself, back there in his awful hermitage, waiting for the working out of his"experiment"? |
31893 | Was he irrational, this exile of Time who had impressed his sinister personality upon so many different eras? |
31893 | Was it her woman''s intuition which told her that Manape was a safe guardian? |
31893 | Was it like this? |
31893 | Was that necessary?" |
31893 | Was the brain the seat of the emotions? |
31893 | Was there any possibility of forcing Barter to perform the operation? |
31893 | Was this mercy?--from such an enemy? |
31893 | We are all unarmed, but what matter? |
31893 | Well, are you proud? |
31893 | Were the air- cruisers with the fleet, or would they come later? |
31893 | Were they feeling their way? |
31893 | What charges of tritonite had the demented man placed in those shells? |
31893 | What did Barter expect Ellen to do? |
31893 | What did Barter expect him to do? |
31893 | What did Barter mean? |
31893 | What did he expect Apeman to do? |
31893 | What did that indicate? |
31893 | What do I care for your records and your histories? |
31893 | What do you mean?" |
31893 | What dreadful thing has so awfully changed Lee? |
31893 | What else could she think? |
31893 | What experiment was he performing? |
31893 | What food should Manape secure for Ellen? |
31893 | What food will Apeman choose for my body to assimilate? |
31893 | What fruits were edible, what poisonous? |
31893 | What had Barter meant? |
31893 | What has happened here? |
31893 | What if Apeman selected, for example, a mate-- from among the hairy she''s? |
31893 | What in the world has come over you?" |
31893 | What is it, Nargyll?" |
31893 | What is the rest of Barter''s experiment? |
31893 | What now was Bentley supposed to do? |
31893 | What part of it had the castaways been witnessing that they had not recognized? |
31893 | What part of you that I can not see is Lee?" |
31893 | What should he do now? |
31893 | What should he do? |
31893 | What was his duty where they were concerned? |
31893 | What was the purpose of it? |
31893 | What was their cruising range? |
31893 | What was this that Barter was saying? |
31893 | What would Apeman do, how would he behave, when the white body of Bentley was well again? |
31893 | What would he see in her beloved eyes when she regained consciousness? |
31893 | What would morning bring to this strange trio? |
31893 | What would she think if an ape began to address her in English, and"Bentley"suddenly held speech with the great apes? |
31893 | What would they do when they were released? |
31893 | What year is this?" |
31893 | What_ did_ Apeman think of his condition, anyway? |
31893 | Where is the soldier who came to visit you?" |
31893 | Where was Barter? |
31893 | Where was he? |
31893 | Where was the ape that had uttered that frightful noise? |
31893 | Where was the scientist? |
31893 | Who are you, what are you, that you should ask me a question the smallest child should know?" |
31893 | Who goes there?" |
31893 | Who is the best? |
31893 | Who was this"Paul"who had"prevailed upon the Red Army"to halt? |
31893 | Why did n''t you wake me up?" |
31893 | Why do n''t you have one? |
31893 | Why had this old man shut himself away from civilization like this? |
31893 | Why in heaven''s name do they buy A. S. if they do n''t like it? |
31893 | Why need he be borne on this slow current at the same speed? |
31893 | Will she believe it? |
31893 | Would Barter try in any way to discover how Bentley would behave in an emergency as leader of the apes? |
31893 | Would Harl return? |
31893 | Would he be in time? |
31893 | Would he not be striving to watch the course of his experiment? |
31893 | Would he wish to know sufficiently to create an emergency? |
31893 | Would his brain be able to direct his mighty arms and his fighting fangs in a battle with the apes of the jungle? |
31893 | Would that body grow well faster when guided by an ape''s brain than when a human brain was in command? |
31893 | Would they bring the red ships? |
31893 | Would they follow him? |
31893 | Would ye not rule the Green Star?" |
31893 | Would you care to look around a bit?" |
31893 | Would you like to know what I have done?" |
31893 | Yet, if you are Lee Bentley, who or what is that?" |
31893 | You and Harl were pursuing that other cage?" |
31893 | You do n''t think Harl would desert us? |
31893 | You do not like my looks? |
31893 | You have been fed? |
31893 | You have the dial set for the proper night and hour?" |
31893 | You have what you came for, you say; why not depart in peace?" |
31893 | You mean then that we three are part of an experiment? |
31893 | You mean-- Caleb Barter? |
31893 | You probably sensed that last evening?" |
31893 | You see, we are due to start in less than an hour, and--""A passenger would be in your way?" |
31893 | You were below, Tugh?" |
31893 | You''ve heard me say that I love Lee Bentley?" |
31893 | You''ve heard that I was a master of trephining? |
31893 | You, Manape, have the brain of Bentley, and Bentley has the brain of a great ape?" |
31893 | [?] |
31893 | ship?" |
28617 | A murder in Laketon? 28617 Adjustable, see? |
28617 | Ah, you''re beginning to find that out, are you? |
28617 | An answer is it? |
28617 | And do you believe it? |
28617 | And now, what is the news you have for me? |
28617 | And so at last you confess that it is not well to tamper with human life? |
28617 | And who can say to what extent you have thus furthered natural evolution? |
28617 | And why did you pick me to tell it to? |
28617 | And you pleaded with him to return for us? |
28617 | Are n''t you taking any special precautions? |
28617 | Are there more like him? |
28617 | Are we going to waste the whole afternoon just to watch a man run? |
28617 | Are you going to arrest me? |
28617 | Are you really going? |
28617 | Are you telling me that this airship is operated with power from the sun? |
28617 | Besides,he said,"what do you know about dog- fights?" |
28617 | Better? 28617 But could stored sunshine alone give enough warmth for the luxuriant growth of those jungles?" |
28617 | But what of the arts, Dr. Mundson? 28617 But what sane man can believe that even perfectly developed beings, through mental control, could overcome Nature''s fixed laws?" |
28617 | But what would you think if I told you that there is not an ounce of gasoline in my heavier- than- air craft? |
28617 | But where are there volcanoes in the south polar regions? |
28617 | But, my young friend, do you realize that my sun- ship has a speed of over one thousand miles an hour, how much over I dare not tell you? |
28617 | Ca n''t I call him up and see if he still wants to see me? |
28617 | Can I do anything to help? 28617 Dale,"he said at length, turning slowly to face me,"you ask for an explanation of this horror? |
28617 | Dare we do it? |
28617 | Did he say at what time he would operate? |
28617 | Did you ever see such a girl as that? |
28617 | Did you notice anything of the sort? |
28617 | Did you see or hear anything like a shadow or a person moving? |
28617 | Did you see that Carnes? |
28617 | Did you see? |
28617 | Do I guess right,said Northwood,"that the light is responsible for this oasis in the ice?" |
28617 | Do n''t they suffer? |
28617 | Do you believe that we''ve got''em licked? |
28617 | Do you realize what this means? |
28617 | Do you understand? |
28617 | Do you want to bring more creatures like Adam into the world? |
28617 | Does what? |
28617 | Fantastic? |
28617 | General,he ordered,"will you kindly arrange for a plane? |
28617 | Give yourself up? |
28617 | Good Lord,Dodd shouted,"did you see the color of their shells, Tommy?" |
28617 | Got them? 28617 Got to land... can you take it? |
28617 | Had it occurred to you that that is our only weapon left? 28617 Had n''t we better notify the police?" |
28617 | Has any one been out on reconnaissance? |
28617 | Have I your gracious permission to arrest these three criminals? |
28617 | Have you any idea of who did it, or how it was done? |
28617 | Have you constructed such a device? |
28617 | Have you got an invitation? |
28617 | Have you got that truck I wired you to have ready? |
28617 | Have you not guessed that Adam has developed an additional sense? 28617 Have you solved the method?" |
28617 | How about the ground under the Colossus? |
28617 | How about your marsupial lion now, Bram? |
28617 | How are you going to bring us three back in your plane? |
28617 | How are you going to get it out? |
28617 | How d''you know, Haidia? |
28617 | How d''you know? |
28617 | How did you get that picture, Doctor? |
28617 | How do you know about Adam? 28617 How in thunder do you know that?" |
28617 | How long after that did you ring the alarm gongs? |
28617 | How many got caught in the building? |
28617 | How many thousands of years are you looking forward, Professor? |
28617 | How much? |
28617 | How you going to prove your contention? |
28617 | I ca n''t frighten you? |
28617 | If there was some flaw? |
28617 | Is that a telephone to the house? |
28617 | It is puzzling, is n''t it? 28617 Just what is your game?" |
28617 | May we take a peep at Lona''s twins? |
28617 | Mean? |
28617 | Mr. Jervis, will you tell the police that there is no violence threatening and ask them to wait for a few minutes? 28617 Mr. Rogers, how, on a dark day and in the absence of a timepiece, would you judge the passage of time?" |
28617 | Mr. Winston, will you answer Mr. Berger''s question? |
28617 | My dear boy, who knows what the human body can stand? 28617 No? |
28617 | No? |
28617 | No? |
28617 | Professor, have you ever played with the dead body of a frog? |
28617 | Queer, fantastic thing, is n''t it? |
28617 | Room 4167? |
28617 | Run through it now briefly, will you? 28617 Secretary of War?" |
28617 | See? 28617 Shall I go along too?" |
28617 | Slide one of them out? |
28617 | So you had trouble with my guard, did you? |
28617 | So you''re going up to Doc Livermore''s, are you? |
28617 | So you''re in on it too, are you? |
28617 | So? 28617 Suffocated?" |
28617 | That he can bring a dead man to life? |
28617 | Them? 28617 Then, what? |
28617 | They are about ready to go to the growing dome, are they not? |
28617 | Those red edges? 28617 Thurston?" |
28617 | Tom-- Tom,spoke the stranger,"you are alive? |
28617 | Tommy Travers gone, eh? 28617 Understand? |
28617 | Used to be a parson, you say? 28617 Was the warning written?" |
28617 | Was this shadow opaque enough to even momentarily obscure your vision? |
28617 | Well, how does it feel to be an ant? |
28617 | What about Winston''s confession? |
28617 | What advantage would there be in that? |
28617 | What am I to do? |
28617 | What are you going to tell them? |
28617 | What are you setting up? |
28617 | What are you trying to do, catechise me? 28617 What ca n''t be helped?" |
28617 | What can I do for you, sir? |
28617 | What did this shadow look like? |
28617 | What difference whether they die there or here...? |
28617 | What do they think this is, April Fool''s Day? |
28617 | What do you know about dog- fights? |
28617 | What do you know about flying? |
28617 | What do you mean, Dr. Mundson: that this Adam has arrived at a point in evolution beyond this age? |
28617 | What do you mean? |
28617 | What do you mean? |
28617 | What do you mean? |
28617 | What does this mean? 28617 What else?" |
28617 | What is eternity, John Northwood? 28617 What is it that explodes? |
28617 | What is it, Jim? |
28617 | What is it? |
28617 | What is special about it? |
28617 | What kind of cats? |
28617 | What kind of junk? |
28617 | What made you ask Trier if he had the money when you turned around? |
28617 | What of Eve? |
28617 | What on earth was it? 28617 What were the circumstances of the robbery?" |
28617 | What were you doing, cabareting all night? |
28617 | What''s that? |
28617 | What''s that? |
28617 | What''s the matter? |
28617 | What''s the story, Doctor? |
28617 | What, in God''s name,I cried,"could have brought such horror to a strong man? |
28617 | What? 28617 What?" |
28617 | What? |
28617 | Where are we? |
28617 | Where are you going, Doctor? |
28617 | Where did you hide the loot? |
28617 | Where did you hide the loot? |
28617 | Where did you hide the loot? |
28617 | Where do they go, Doctor? |
28617 | Where do we go, Doctor? |
28617 | Where do you think we are? |
28617 | Where had they gone? |
28617 | Where have they come from? 28617 Where is Jenks?" |
28617 | Where is this body-- this experiment? |
28617 | Where is your switch? |
28617 | Where to? |
28617 | Who are you to question my actions? 28617 Who by? |
28617 | Who can say? 28617 Who the devil are you, and what do you mean by breaking into my examination and stopping it?" |
28617 | Who wants a perfect woman? 28617 Why do n''t they try putting engines in these ships?" |
28617 | Why not close the cage for the day? |
28617 | Why not now? |
28617 | Why not? |
28617 | Why should you come here? 28617 Why, what do you mean?" |
28617 | Why, what''s the matter? |
28617 | Why-- uh-- er-- what do you mean? |
28617 | Why? 28617 Why?" |
28617 | Why?--how?--who? |
28617 | Will there be another attempt? |
28617 | Will you take me up there? |
28617 | Will you tell me your name? |
28617 | Would you hunt elephants with a pop- gun? 28617 Yes?" |
28617 | You are trying to find? |
28617 | You got letter? |
28617 | You left Los Angeles early yesterday; have you seen the papers? |
28617 | You mean that you cut them up-- kill them, perhaps? |
28617 | You understand? |
28617 | You will not harm her? |
28617 | You''re insolent, are n''t you? |
28617 | You''re not dead? |

28617 | I ca n''t frighten you-- you worm of the Black Age?" |
28617 | I chust blay und blay, und maybe you should listen, yes? |
28617 | I suppose that everything is ready?" |
28617 | I suppose that you are more or less familiar with imaginative stories of interplanetary travel?" |
28617 | I tell you, nobody will believe--""What''s that?" |
28617 | I wonder-- do you still mock the Professor''s beliefs?" |
28617 | Imagination? |
28617 | Is it not keeping forever ahead of the Destroyer? |
28617 | Is it possible that you have no desire to see Ladd, this new marvel who is smashing records right and left, run? |
28617 | Is n''t he handsomer than the pictures of him which I televisioned to you? |
28617 | Is that clear?" |
28617 | Is there any known means of attack? |
28617 | It must have been--""Must have been what?" |
28617 | It was so quiet-- the motors-- what was it that happened? |
28617 | Lights of any kind?" |
28617 | Livermore?" |
28617 | Magnesium? |
28617 | Never think it to look at me now, would you? |
28617 | No doubt you, like the rest of the world, think that I''m crazy?" |
28617 | No? |
28617 | Northwood asked:"Why does he call that girl grandmother?" |
28617 | Now listen:"How long was it from the time when you saw the first monster until we heard from them again?" |
28617 | Now what does it mean?" |
28617 | Of course not, how could I?" |
28617 | Oh, hello, Casey, is everything all right?" |
28617 | Or these things?" |
28617 | Or"--he frowned for a moment, brows drawn over deep- set gray eyes--"or generate it? |
28617 | P-1184, Chicago=***** Ruptured? |
28617 | Remember the day I captured the big rooster for you-- the monster you had created? |
28617 | Remember the hermit across the road from your son''s old laboratory? |
28617 | Remember the night you awakened me and brought me here in the moonlight? |
28617 | Remember the rabbit whose leg you amputated and re- grew? |
28617 | Remember the struggle, here in this very room? |
28617 | See?" |
28617 | Sounds pretty good, what? |
28617 | Spot here? |
28617 | Still are?" |
28617 | Tell me-- can you restore the youth of an aged person by these means?" |
28617 | Tell me-- tell me-- what is this remarkable force?" |
28617 | The laboratory housed the entire population, did n''t it?" |
28617 | The motor of your car dies-- do you bury it? |
28617 | The poor guinea pig you had suffocated and whose life you restored? |
28617 | They could never kill him.... What was it MacGregor had said? |
28617 | Think I''d waste current on an old cadger like you? |
28617 | Thurston?" |
28617 | Trier?" |
28617 | Trier?" |
28617 | Twelve years ago?" |
28617 | WHAT INSTRUMENT FOR YOU? |
28617 | Was a different kind of hell preparing to pop? |
28617 | Was it hunger that drove it, or cold rage for these puny opponents? |
28617 | Was she with him, unseen? |
28617 | Was this, then, the end of their terrible night? |
28617 | We start from the impossible, and we go-- where? |
28617 | Well, what were the others doing, down there in the streets-- in their homes? |
28617 | Were they windows? |
28617 | What beastly thoughts could that-- that_ thing_ conceive?" |
28617 | What could he do when he overtook it? |
28617 | What do you mean by your talk of smashing my tubes, of leaving me for dead?" |
28617 | What do you say to the idea?" |
28617 | What does a thing like that think of? |
28617 | What does it mean-- what is their mission? |
28617 | What does it strike upon? |
28617 | What had they done in Berlin? |
28617 | What he said was this:"Maybe, yes, I could n''t talk so good English, but you could understood it, yes? |
28617 | What if she should enter with Adam in Present Time? |
28617 | What is there? |
28617 | What is to be done?" |
28617 | What possible interest can I have in the matter?" |
28617 | What was the connection between this catastrophe and the weird strains of the Mad Musician''s violin? |
28617 | What was this girl to that hideous hunchback? |
28617 | What was to be the fate of this beautiful girl? |
28617 | What were a few minutes more or less? |
28617 | What''s this about beetles? |
28617 | Where Is That PAIN? |
28617 | Where did you hide it?" |
28617 | Where''s your bag?" |
28617 | White- lipped and trembling, Northwood groaned:"What has he done now?" |
28617 | Who had committed this ghastly crime? |
28617 | Who wants a made- to- measure lover?" |
28617 | Who was he that it mattered? |
28617 | Who was the last to go over that building?" |
28617 | Who was this strange emissary whom no one really knew? |
28617 | Whose hands?" |
28617 | Why ca n''t we agree to differ?" |
28617 | Why come to me? |
28617 | Why did the handsome stranger warn him,"_ The thing inside never will be yours_?" |
28617 | Why do they sometimes halt important meetings, to gargle with it? |
28617 | Why do they use it at the noon hour? |
28617 | Why go along at$ 25,$ 30 or$ 45 a week when the good jobs in Radio pay$ 50,$ 75 and up to$ 250 a week? |
28617 | Why? |
28617 | Will you have everything ready by eight o''clock?" |
28617 | Will you?" |
28617 | Wind? |
28617 | Winston?" |
28617 | Wo n''t you let me see you home?" |
28617 | Would n''t it be great if we could buy muscles by the bag-- take them home and paste them on our shoulders? |
28617 | Would you mind if I make friends with some of them?" |
28617 | Would you mind telling me the object of the whole thing?" |
28617 | You call me a fool for continuing it? |
28617 | You feel it? |
28617 | You know Casey, do n''t you, Carnes? |
28617 | You know how fast an ordinary movie is taken, do n''t you? |
28617 | You think I returned because I reverenced you yet?" |
28617 | You think you still are master? |
28617 | You understand? |
28617 | You were not dead when I left you on that terrible night when I smashed your precious tubes? |
28617 | You?" |
28617 | _ A Year''s Protection Against_ ACCIDENT[ Illustration: CASH_ or sympathy_?] |

29607 | And Inga? |
29607 | And Inga? |
29607 | And how in the world is it controlled? |
29607 | And then what, Mercer? |
29607 | And we leave? |
29607 | And what do you plan to do now? |
29607 | And your world? |
29607 | Are you hit badly? |
29607 | Back to the earth? |
29607 | Burglars? |
29607 | Burst it? 29607 But how,"asked Steinholt,"can we kill them? |
29607 | But how,he demanded,"can such destruction be brought about? |
29607 | But that is Stanton''s plane there, is n''t it? |
29607 | But what do they want? |
29607 | But why were no bodies ever washed ashore? |
29607 | By the way, Mr. Vanderpool, is there anything wrong at your apartment? 29607 Can the damn thing run itself, Steinholt?" |
29607 | Carnes, are you sure that those bodies were broken into bits? 29607 Carson, will you operate the switch for us? |
29607 | Cooling off, Gregg? |
29607 | Did I? 29607 Did the critter bite you?" |
29607 | Did the purser hear him? |
29607 | Did you get him? |
29607 | Do n''t you get the idea yet? 29607 Do n''t you see, Taylor? |
29607 | Do you know Ob Hahn? |
29607 | Do you know anything about it, Sears? |
29607 | Do you know anything about it? |
29607 | Do you mean badly smashed up? |
29607 | Do you remember the trouble that you had with Zitlan? |
29607 | Do you suppose that you can get a snap of the old boy''s mug if I can get him to the window again? 29607 Do you want to kill him?" |
29607 | Does anybody know what they are going to do or what they want? |
29607 | Does n''t it seem queer that George Prince and a few of his Martian friends happen to be listed as passengers for this voyage? |
29607 | Ever heard of him? |
29607 | Excitement? |
29607 | From what part of the world do you come,asked the astounded Fragoni,"that you speak our language?" |
29607 | Gregg, do n''t you know me? |
29607 | Gregg--Gregg, do n''t you know me? |
29607 | Have these Lodorians made any demands yet? |
29607 | Have you an eavesdropping microphone, Haljan? |
29607 | Have you any theory regarding it? |
29607 | He knows about-- about the Grantline treasure? |
29607 | Her? |
29607 | Hold on, Riley, what are you talking about? |
29607 | How about making him release Handlon''s-- what d''ye call it?--astral-- from Perry''s body? |
29607 | How can you expect to slay a mad creation that can leap through space, from world to world, like a wasp goes darting from flower to flower? 29607 How do you get into it?" |
29607 | How do you like it, Skip? |
29607 | How long ago was the wreck? |
29607 | How''s the train service, if any? |
29607 | I wonder,he added,"where Stanton is? |
29607 | In God''s name, Mercer, what is it? 29607 Is Fragoni going?" |
29607 | Is he sharpening his teeth on a rock preparatory to another attack upon us? 29607 Is he? |
29607 | Is it going to be treating Handlon right to de- astralize him now? 29607 Is it necessary? |
29607 | Is it? |
29607 | Is the old party croaked yet? 29607 Is there any possible defense against it, Steinholt?" |
29607 | Is there any power line passing within twenty miles of here? |
29607 | Is there something else, sir? |
29607 | It caught fire, of course? |
29607 | It seems like a dream, does n''t it, Dirk? |
29607 | Little beauty, is n''t she? |
29607 | May I have the honor of conducting our guests back to their ship in a plane? |
29607 | Me? 29607 Navigate-- where?" |
29607 | Navigate-- where?) |
29607 | No? 29607 No? |
29607 | Nothing queer looking? |
29607 | Now will you tell? |
29607 | Oh, Dirk, what is that thing? |
29607 | Oh, Dirk,pleaded Inga,"stay here with me, wo n''t you? |
29607 | Or a little acid? 29607 Porcelain? |
29607 | Ready? |
29607 | See what''s in there, wo n''t you? 29607 Shall I make a landing on it?" |
29607 | She is conscious? |
29607 | She is not human? |
29607 | Should I? |
29607 | Sleep? 29607 Snap?" |
29607 | So they''ve bought him off, have they? 29607 So you love Anita Prince so much as that, Gregg?" |
29607 | Ten days--"You think we''ll reach Ferrok- Shahn on schedule? |
29607 | That man who keeps staring at me, who is he? |
29607 | That thing, then, is...? |
29607 | The Venza-- wasn''t that her name? 29607 The earth? |
29607 | The plans? |
29607 | Then what made it go up? |
29607 | Then you know that the thing is harmless? |
29607 | There''s more you''d like to learn? 29607 They are saying over the televisor that--""What are they saying about it?" |
29607 | They? |
29607 | Think we''ll get away on time, Gregg? |
29607 | Those strange people, where are they from? |
29607 | Venza, where did the prowler run to? 29607 Very well-- but you will talk? |
29607 | Was it from in there? 29607 Was it the Prince girl? |
29607 | Was n''t it sealed? |
29607 | We did, did n''t we? 29607 We will find out about it soon enough,"he added,"so why worry about it in the meantime?" |
29607 | Well? |
29607 | Wh- a- a- t? |
29607 | What about it, men? |
29607 | What are you doing with that? |
29607 | What are you doing-- going to Mars, Venza? 29607 What are you going to use it for?" |
29607 | What could cause such a low temperature, Doctor? |
29607 | What did he shoot me with? |
29607 | What did you find out about the cause of the wreck, Doctor? |
29607 | What do they intend to do? 29607 What do you make of it?" |
29607 | What do you make of that thing, Vanderpool? |
29607 | What do you mean? 29607 What do you mean?" |
29607 | What do you say, people? |
29607 | What do you think of her, Taylor? |
29607 | What do you want to say, Miko? |
29607 | What does it all mean, Dirk? |
29607 | What happened? |
29607 | What harm? 29607 What has happened, Set Haljan?" |
29607 | What have you done to Handlon? |
29607 | What hit me such a crack on the dome? 29607 What in hell are you doing?" |
29607 | What in the hell? 29607 What is it, Bill?" |
29607 | What is it, Gregg? |
29607 | What is it? |
29607 | What is it? |
29607 | What is that apparatus? |
29607 | What is the matter, Inga? |
29607 | What is this? 29607 What makes it move, I wonder?" |
29607 | What on earth has the train to do with our getting the Professor''s confession of crime or whatever he has to offer? 29607 What was that?" |
29607 | What was the source of your cold? |
29607 | What work? |
29607 | What''s that? |
29607 | What''s the matter? |
29607 | What? |
29607 | When do you expect to start? |
29607 | Where are you going, Doctor? |
29607 | Where in hell is Jimmie? |
29607 | Where is it? |
29607 | Where is that cold light apparatus of yours? |
29607 | Where is your compressor? |
29607 | Where''s Snap? |
29607 | Where? |
29607 | Who are you? 29607 Who are you?" |
29607 | Who are you? |
29607 | Who are you? |
29607 | Who is Hughes? |
29607 | Who is Teuxical,he asked,"but the vassal of a monarch whose corsairs, very apparently, are carrying on a war of conquest in the universe? |
29607 | Who is she? |
29607 | Who the devil are you, and what are you doing here? |
29607 | Who was it? 29607 Who was that?" |
29607 | Why do you look so furtive? |
29607 | Why do you say that? |
29607 | Why, by God, where is he? 29607 Why-- why am I here-- in Fragoni''s? |
29607 | Will you help us, Captain Carter? 29607 Would n''t that be enough to clear Skip? |
29607 | Yes,I said,"is n''t it?" |
29607 | Yes? 29607 Yield? |
29607 | You dare to invade my grounds and disturb me at my labors for such a reason? 29607 You did n''t think we had anything easy, did you?" |
29607 | You have n''t been opening any treasury vaults, have you, Gregg? |
29607 | You have n''t mentioned it, have you? |
29607 | You think he overheard Grantline''s message? |
29607 | You wha- a- t? |
29607 | You''re not in love, by any chance, and bringing me down here like this merely to back up your own opinion of them eyes and them lips, Mercer? |
29607 | You''re sure? 29607 You''ve heard of the Federated Radium Motor?" |
29607 | You''ve seen George Prince, Gregg? |
29607 | You, Haljan? |
29607 | ''Some may have gone back?'' |
29607 | ***** He added vehemently,"Do you understand now why we should be suspicious of this George Prince? |
29607 | ***** Was the air in the laboratory getting unbearably close? |
29607 | ***** What was that? |
29607 | *****"And are they-- the Lodorians-- still here?" |
29607 | *****"Webbed?" |
29607 | *****"What are your plans?" |
29607 | *****"What do you mean?" |
29607 | *****"What is it?" |
29607 | *****"What time is it now?" |
29607 | *****"Why not await developments?" |
29607 | A chance word, with you lads befuddled by alcolite?" |
29607 | A plot to seize the Planetara? |
29607 | A terrific force was emanating from that devilish globe above him, drawing him out of himself-- or-- no-- was he expanding? |
29607 | And I added seriously,"You do n''t answer my question? |
29607 | And Rankin:"But can we trust them? |
29607 | And saying:"But Miss Prince, why are you and your brother going to Ferrok- Shahn? |
29607 | And the Professor... he was getting farther and farther away... that perfecto... or was it an El Cabbajo? |
29607 | And the purser acting innocent? |
29607 | And then I heard Coniston:"See here, why would not a hundred pounds of gold- leaf tempt you? |
29607 | And what was the excitement you were in just before breakfast this morning?" |
29607 | And when a police ship sights us, what will you do then?" |
29607 | And who is this George Prince, anyway?" |
29607 | And worse: How had he dared open Snap''s box in the helio- room and abstract the code pass- words for this voyage? |
29607 | Any report to make?" |
29607 | Are you a servant here? |
29607 | Besides, would n''t it be possible for us to lead a jury out here and duplicate the experiment?" |
29607 | Big, handsome fellow, is n''t he? |
29607 | But was he? |
29607 | But was it? |
29607 | But what happened to me? |
29607 | But what was Johnson doing carrying a plan of the ship''s control rooms in his pockets? |
29607 | But when? |
29607 | But who can say that Teuxical ever will return here again? |
29607 | But why? |
29607 | By God, this murderer, whoever he is--"I stammered,"If-- if she dies-- will you flash us word?" |
29607 | By the stars, what else? |
29607 | By whom? |
29607 | CHAPTER IX_ The Murder in A 22_"Good God, what was that?" |
29607 | Can you get him to keep his mouth shut?" |
29607 | Can you suggest anything better?" |
29607 | Can you tell us?" |
29607 | Captain Carter added abruptly,"We''re insulated here, Halsey?" |
29607 | Captain Carter went on,"I know I can trust you two more than anyone else under me on the Planetara--""What do you mean by that?" |
29607 | Carnes, is your case completed?" |
29607 | Come just as you are, and--"*****"What''s the matter?" |
29607 | Confound it all... that cigar... where was it?... |
29607 | Could he have the ore insulated, fearing its Gamma rays would betray its presence to hostile watchers? |
29607 | Could it be he had purposely raised the other''s hopes in order to chaff him some more? |
29607 | Could the Professor produce it? |
29607 | Could the old villain be playing possum? |
29607 | Did you do that, Prince? |
29607 | Did you ever see a man''s body broken in pieces?" |
29607 | Did you have Prince''s cabin searched?" |
29607 | Did you hear anything?" |
29607 | Did you know that?" |
29607 | Did you know that?" |
29607 | Did you, or did you not meet George Prince and that Martian last night?" |
29607 | Do n''t you? |
29607 | Do you know I just got kicked by a poll parrot? |
29607 | Do you realize it will soon be dark?" |
29607 | Do you understand, Gaeble?" |
29607 | Do you understand?" |
29607 | Does he know anything about this Grantline affair?" |
29607 | Eh?" |
29607 | Ever hear of him?" |
29607 | Finally Bland could wait no longer, but fixed a terrible eye on the murderer and demanded harshly,"Where''s Handlon?" |
29607 | For the Earth? |
29607 | Get me?" |
29607 | Get me?" |
29607 | Gregg Haljan-- is this a truce? |
29607 | Gregg, dear...."Why, what was this? |
29607 | Had George Prince been in his own room when the attack came? |
29607 | Had Johnson been planning to sell those pass- words to Miko? |
29607 | Had he been watching me? |
29607 | Had the reporter gone insane too? |
29607 | Halsey''s words:"Things are not always what they seem--"Were these passengers masqueraders? |
29607 | He and the Englishman do n''t mesh very well, do they?" |
29607 | Heat- ray? |
29607 | His voice sounded:"Gregg Haljan, do you yield?" |
29607 | How long had they been under the influence of the lethal stuff? |
29607 | Hurt?" |
29607 | I demanded abruptly,"What did your brother want to talk to me about?" |
29607 | I guess it''s the old gag about diet, eh?" |
29607 | I heard Sir Arthur Coniston:"I say, what was that?" |
29607 | I presume that you saw that it was a catenary curve?" |
29607 | I said,"What sort of a contract?" |
29607 | I would not question you--""Is that all you have to say?" |
29607 | I-- er-- that is-- you see--""Where''s Handlon? |
29607 | If he is hurt-- killed--"So that was why Miko had tried to capture me? |
29607 | If it were not for your knowledge of radium ores--""Is this to be a personal wrangle?" |
29607 | Is everything clear?" |
29607 | Is it criminal? |
29607 | Is my apparatus in good shape outside?" |
29607 | Is the door sealed? |
29607 | Is there any chance of following that trail?" |
29607 | It was after eleven by the ship''s clock on the mantel, and if--"Taylor?" |
29607 | Mercer? |
29607 | Moa said,"Does Rankin understand that no harm is to come to Gregg Haljan?" |
29607 | Not George Prince? |
29607 | Not headed for the moon? |
29607 | Not pressure- sick, I hope?" |
29607 | Not= pressure- sick=, I hope?) |
29607 | Now? |
29607 | Oh, is that you, Balch? |
29607 | On a night like this?" |
29607 | Or might disaster have come to him? |
29607 | Or the Moon? |
29607 | Or was he a very clever scoundrel, with irony lurking in his soft voice, and a chuckle that he could so befool me? |
29607 | Or was his smile an ironical memory of how he had eluded me this morning when I chased him? |
29607 | Or was it because he was Anita''s brother? |
29607 | Or was the queer leaden feeling that had taken possession of Perry''s lungs but an indication of his overpowering weariness? |
29607 | Or-- What the deuce_ is_ he doing?" |
29607 | Out of the silence, Balch demanded,"Well, what about it, Johnson?" |
29607 | Porcelain?" |
29607 | Presently the eyelids fluttered open and a feeble voice asked,"Where the deuce am I, and how did all you guys get here?" |
29607 | Put here by George Prince? |
29607 | Rankin said calmly:"Where is the little Venus girl this meal?" |
29607 | Remember? |
29607 | See?" |
29607 | Shall I notify him of the conclave?" |
29607 | Shall we argue about it?" |
29607 | Shall we carry on?" |
29607 | She added,"Why should George Prince be sneaking around with you after him? |
29607 | Should he follow Kell and his burden, or should he not take advantage of this fine opportunity to continue his search of the upper story? |
29607 | Snap demanded,"What in the stars has this got to do with Johnny Grantline?" |
29607 | Something wrong?" |
29607 | That you think she can give us?" |
29607 | The code- words which were taken from Johnson-- I mean to say, why not tell us where they are?" |
29607 | The stewards-- the crew?" |
29607 | The surgeon said,"Can you speak now, Gregg?" |
29607 | Then I said upon impulse,"Suppose we go down to the deck, Doctor?" |
29607 | This fire- writing does not really hurt? |
29607 | Understand?" |
29607 | Vanderpool?" |
29607 | Was Anita afraid of this Martian''s wooing? |
29607 | Was George Prince in there? |
29607 | Was Miko''s room insulated? |
29607 | Was he captured-- or still holding them off? |
29607 | Was it Perry speaking, or was it Skip Handlon? |
29607 | Was it that? |
29607 | Was my accursed masculine beauty so attractive to this Martian girl? |
29607 | Was she sorry she had said that? |
29607 | Was that why Miko had struck me down, and was carrying me off? |
29607 | Was the Kell returning? |
29607 | Was the simple photographer so completely at ease that he had at length forsaken all thought of possible danger? |
29607 | Was this the mysterious Martian who had followed us from Halsey''s office? |
29607 | Were all these people aware of Grantline''s treasure on the moon? |
29607 | Were they about to be led into a trap? |
29607 | Were they planning to try and seize the Planetara? |
29607 | What about those packets that were on the plane?" |
29607 | What are they?" |
29607 | What can I do?" |
29607 | What could anyone do? |
29607 | What do you suppose it would pay for a few tons of really rich radio- active ore-- such as Grantline may have found on the Moon?" |
29607 | What had you been drinking?" |
29607 | What happened to you? |
29607 | What have you got? |
29607 | What is a thermocouple?" |
29607 | What is it you want to say?" |
29607 | What say?" |
29607 | What takes you to Mars?" |
29607 | What was Kell''s real object in giving them those drugged cigars? |
29607 | What was he sitting there for, anyway, at that hour of the morning?" |
29607 | What was it? |
29607 | What was that?" |
29607 | What was the old archfiend doing to him anyhow?... |
29607 | What was there to plan? |
29607 | What would anyone dare do? |
29607 | Whatever you learn-- anything you encounter which looks unusual-- will you tell me? |
29607 | When would the Chief finish and let him escape from the office? |
29607 | Where are you, Frank? |
29607 | Where are you, anyway?" |
29607 | Where is father? |
29607 | Where was Handlon? |
29607 | Where was Miko? |
29607 | Where''s Carter?" |
29607 | Where''s the hay, Horace? |
29607 | Where_ was_ Handlon''s body? |
29607 | Who am I to write of it, with all the poets of all the ages striving to express the unexpressible? |
29607 | Who is he?" |
29607 | Who the devil are you?" |
29607 | Whose voice was that? |
29607 | Why did Handlon grin in that idiotic manner? |
29607 | Why do n''t you go get him? |
29607 | Why had the room suddenly taken on so hazy an aspect? |
29607 | Why not? |
29607 | Why should I not say it? |
29607 | Why was he laughing and leering at them so horribly?... |
29607 | Why? |
29607 | Why? |
29607 | Wild- eyed, chasing a phantom--""You?" |
29607 | Will you come?" |
29607 | Will you?" |
29607 | Would he be in time? |
29607 | Would it be as clear to the girl? |
29607 | Would it not be the wiser to eliminate all traces of to- night''s happenings? |
29607 | Would the speed of condensation of the atoms which comprised the body of Professor Kell serve to shut out the pursuing astral of Kell? |
29607 | Would they show signs of pity? |
29607 | Would you rouse him again after the way he treated us with that gun? |
29607 | Yes-- shall we go there? |
29607 | Yet held to him by some power he might have over her brother? |
29607 | You are familiar with a searchlight, are you not?" |
29607 | You caused us a lot of trouble, did n''t you? |
29607 | You did n''t know that, Rankin? |
29607 | You have-- how many is it, Carter?--thirty or forty passengers this trip to- night?" |
29607 | You know that? |
29607 | You know that? |
29607 | You mean changing their money? |
29607 | You said, Sir Arthur?... |
29607 | You saw me?" |
29607 | You saw that look, Gregg? |
29607 | You seem to feel it was George Prince?" |
29607 | You understand that, do you not?" |
29607 | You understand?" |
29607 | You will not shoot?" |
29607 | You will, Mercer-- you will return her to the sea?" |
29607 | Your duties on the Planetara leave you comparatively free, do n''t they?" |
29390 | All is well, Gregg Haljan? |
29390 | All right, Anita? |
29390 | All safe, Gregg? |
29390 | An error? 29390 And Dr. Frank, Anita?" |
29390 | And all the time the windows have been of fused quartz? |
29390 | And armed? 29390 Are they checked?" |
29390 | Are we going to maroon Dr. Frank with the passengers? |
29390 | Are you all right, darling? |
29390 | Are you familiar with spectroscopy, Admiral? |
29390 | Are you hungry, Haljan? |
29390 | Are you ready? |
29390 | Are you sure, Carnes? |
29390 | Are you sure? |
29390 | Believe that once a man''s heart is stilled it''s stopped for good, eh? 29390 But did you?" |
29390 | But what do you expect? 29390 But what would my superiors in the Government Bureau think?" |
29390 | But where are we going? |
29390 | But where is Miko? |
29390 | But,she began faintly,"how can this mad experiment have anything to do with saving my boy?" |
29390 | But-- but what is the matter? |
29390 | Can not you finish the experiment, Allen? 29390 Can we stop there?" |
29390 | Can you find landing space, Gregg? |
29390 | Can you see me? |
29390 | Can you send, Peter? |
29390 | Can you-- check us? 29390 Carnes, did you ever see a case of snow blindness?" |
29390 | Did you arrange for that plane? |
29390 | Did you ever think of that, Moa? 29390 Did you mark the pane of glass through which you flashed your light last night, Bolton?" |
29390 | Did you offer us choice of surrender? 29390 Did you think George Prince was a leader of this? |
29390 | Did you think I wanted you with my dying breath? 29390 Do you not understand? |
29390 | Do you suppose the poor chap has a-- a-- broken heart, or something like that? 29390 Do you think so?" |
29390 | Do you think that some exterior force is causing the President''s disability? |
29390 | Do-- do you mean it? 29390 Do-- do you mean you can bring Allen from the prison here-- just by throwing those switches?" |
29390 | Even...? |
29390 | Falling? 29390 Falling?" |
29390 | Grantline? 29390 Have I forgotten, did I do anything wrong?" |
29390 | Have we stopped swinging? |
29390 | Have you ever seen a finer one? |
29390 | Have you tried to connect this opthalmia with his mental aberrations? |
29390 | Hello, Doctor,exclaimed the Chief,"what the dickens have you got on your mind now? |
29390 | How are they doing it? |
29390 | How are you? |
29390 | How did he get out of here? 29390 How do you know what course to follow?" |
29390 | How do you know? 29390 How do you people control your being, as you express it?" |
29390 | How does he act in the daytime? |
29390 | How far away, Peter? |
29390 | How should I know, Miko? 29390 How should I know?" |
29390 | I mean to say, where to on the Moon? 29390 I presume that the President always sleeps with his head in this direction?" |
29390 | I say, we are not so bad as navigators, are we? 29390 I think you will cause no more trouble, Gregg?" |
29390 | I was thinking, Moa, when we land at the Moon to- morrow-- where is our equipment? |
29390 | If our treasure is on this hemisphere, Prince, we should pick up Gamma rays? 29390 If you are what you say you are, how did you get here?" |
29390 | In other words, it is acting like sunburn? |
29390 | In war, too? |
29390 | Insects as big as horses? |
29390 | Is he dead, Olmstead? |
29390 | Is he inside the room, Anita? |
29390 | Is he worse? |
29390 | Is it? 29390 Is that all?" |
29390 | Is that his name? |
29390 | Is that reason why we should not love? |
29390 | It''s a beautiful moon, is n''t it? |
29390 | Low scale, Peter? |
29390 | Moa, did it ever occur to you, if once you and Miko trusted me-- which you don''t-- I might show more interest in joining you? |
29390 | Moa, where is Snap? 29390 Nothing? |
29390 | Nothing? |
29390 | Oh, ye wud, wud yer, little mann? |
29390 | On such a subject as this you''re entitled to_ know_, are you? 29390 Only one, Anita?" |
29390 | Overwork? |
29390 | Pardon me a moment, Doctor,interrupted the Admiral,"but may I ask what is your connection with the matter? |
29390 | Prince? |
29390 | Professor,he wrote feverishly,"can you reverse the process used in your Vibration- Retarder? |
29390 | Ready, Haljan? |
29390 | Shall I accompany you? |
29390 | Shall I try the''graphs, Miko? |
29390 | Snap? 29390 So that is it?" |
29390 | So you do n''t believe a man can come back from the grave, eh? |
29390 | So you think it amusing? |
29390 | So, Gregg Haljan? 29390 So, Haljan-- she put some sense into your head? |
29390 | Something here? 29390 Surely you''re not going out a night like this? |
29390 | Talc? |
29390 | Talk about him? 29390 That black- whiskered sphinx, Hammersly, will he be there?" |
29390 | That gentleman, milady? |
29390 | That the turret? |
29390 | The same interval, Snap? |
29390 | Then Stokowsky had isolated Von Beyer''s new element? |
29390 | Then you_ have_ studied the moon? |
29390 | This treasure on the Moon-- did you say it was on the Moon? |
29390 | To what destination? |
29390 | Wan side, is it? |
29390 | Well, boys,he asked lightly,"what do you think of that?" |
29390 | Well, gentlemen, are you satisfied that resistance is futile? |
29390 | Well, how did he get out? |
29390 | Well, why do n''t you tell me? |
29390 | Well? |
29390 | What are you doing-- pulling my leg? |
29390 | What do you mean, Doctor? |
29390 | What do you suppose it could be, Jerry boy? |
29390 | What do you think of Von Beyer''s alleged discovery? |
29390 | What do you want me to do? |
29390 | What happened? |
29390 | What information did you wish, Doctor? |
29390 | What is it, Allen? |
29390 | What is it, Williams? |
29390 | What is there in the room? |
29390 | What on earth is it? |
29390 | What other wild animals or harmful insects have you on this planet? |
29390 | What word, Brady? |
29390 | What''s happened? 29390 What-- what are you doing now?" |
29390 | What? 29390 When did he start to sleep there?" |
29390 | Where are they? |
29390 | Where are your Gamma ray mirrors? 29390 Where do you think these insect invaders came from?" |
29390 | Where is Admiral Clay? |
29390 | Where is Miko, Ellis? |
29390 | Where is Miko? |
29390 | Where is Snap? |
29390 | Where is he? 29390 Where is the operator?" |
29390 | Where is your detail? |
29390 | Where will it join us? |
29390 | Which way do you think? |
29390 | Who th''divil arre yer? |
29390 | Who, Snap? |
29390 | Why men and women? |
29390 | Why not the moon? 29390 Why not?" |
29390 | Why should I not? 29390 Why,"he asked rather hesitatingly,"did the people of Venus always remain so small? |
29390 | Why? 29390 Why?" |
29390 | Women? |
29390 | Wonder who wrote it? |
29390 | Would a zed- ray penetrate those crater- cliffs? 29390 Would you like to have our chef prepare them for you?" |
29390 | You are going? |
29390 | You are seeking a natural enemy to this deadly flying menace, are you not? |
29390 | You armed? |
29390 | You called for winged volunteers, did you not, Kleig? |
29390 | You dare? |
29390 | You got it? |
29390 | You take command here? |
29390 | You think he may be on the Northern inner side of Tycho? |
29390 | You think the ship is coming? |
29390 | You think you love someone else? 29390 You want a true course now to the asteroid?" |
29390 | You want me to fear you? |
29390 | You will land us safely, Haljan? |
29390 | You''re sure of that? |
29390 | You, please-- you will help us? 29390 You-- you will let me be with you?" |
29390 | _ Grantline?_And the answer came. |
29390 | ''Oh, you''re one of_ those_ guys, are you?'' |
29390 | ***** But how far? |
29390 | ***** Would Professor Burr be able to save Allen as he claimed? |
29390 | *****"What are the symptoms?" |
29390 | A girl somewhere who jilted him? |
29390 | A premonition? |
29390 | A suicide? |
29390 | After the Governor has refused me? |
29390 | Am I-- a girl descended from the Martian flame- workers-- impotent now to awaken a man?" |
29390 | An abnormality upon the frowning ragged cliffs of Tycho? |
29390 | And now may I return to the subject of the vampires of Venus?" |
29390 | And some arrangement for my share of this treasure? |
29390 | And the other ship-- how fast is it?" |
29390 | And what had drowned out the voice of the radio- reporter? |
29390 | And where was Coniston, down in this broken hull? |
29390 | Are they still there?" |
29390 | Are we checked?" |
29390 | Are you ready, Gregg?" |
29390 | Astounding Stories looks all right, but may I make a suggestions? |
29390 | Bolton, have you ever seen a finer moon? |
29390 | But I wonder what is eating him?" |
29390 | But how, in all this Lunar desolation, could we hope to locate them? |
29390 | But these passengers-- what preparation are you making for them on the asteroid?" |
29390 | But to what advantage? |
29390 | But to what purpose? |
29390 | But what did it portend? |
29390 | But why? |
29390 | But why? |
29390 | But you say he claims to have found the correct alloys?" |
29390 | But_ was_ it secret? |
29390 | By the Almighty, Moa, are you up there? |
29390 | CHAPTER I_ The Hand of Moyen._"Who is that man?" |
29390 | Ca n''t you change the two bodies now?" |
29390 | Can you get me into the White House to- night?" |
29390 | Can you save him? |
29390 | Can you tell me with what type of glass it is equipped?" |
29390 | Could I make her talk of that other brigand ship which Miko had said was waiting on Mars? |
29390 | Could Miko be fooled? |
29390 | Dead? |
29390 | Did he love Anita Prince? |
29390 | Did n''t you hear what I called you? |
29390 | Did the eyes of Moyen gaze even into the depths of the Secret Room, hundreds of feet below even the documentary- treasure vaults of the Capitol? |
29390 | Did you spare the lives of our people which, with your control of your golden rays, you could easily have done? |
29390 | Do n''t you suppose I''m interested?" |
29390 | Do n''t you think so, Jerry?" |
29390 | Do n''t you think so? |
29390 | Do n''t you understand? |
29390 | Do n''t you understand? |
29390 | Do n''t you understand?" |
29390 | Do you believe it?" |
29390 | Do you believe me?" |
29390 | Do you not understand, can you not comprehend, also, that the man Smith was a martyr to science? |
29390 | Do you recognize the lines?" |
29390 | Do you see? |
29390 | Do you think, when I am deadly serious, that I mean what I say?" |
29390 | Do you understand?" |
29390 | Does everybody understand?" |
29390 | Does he speak at all, Jerry?" |
29390 | Drop me off there, will you?" |
29390 | Dying? |
29390 | Executing my signals?" |
29390 | Five hundred years?" |
29390 | Get a life belt, will you?" |
29390 | Grantline''s party? |
29390 | Gregg Haljan?" |
29390 | Gregg, why are you so foolish?" |
29390 | Had I failed my cue? |
29390 | Had Venza failed in her unknown purpose? |
29390 | Had her mind, in the excitement, betrayed her? |
29390 | Had she and Dr. Frank, perhaps, some last minute desperate purposes? |
29390 | Haljan, what''s happened?" |
29390 | Haljan, will you verify these figures?" |
29390 | Hate? |
29390 | Have n''t several elements been first discovered in the spectra of stars?" |
29390 | Have n''t you ever had time to study the history of the moon- worshipping cults? |
29390 | Have you a flashlight?" |
29390 | Have you ever heard that man say anything yet? |
29390 | Have you no answer?" |
29390 | He does not drink, gamble....""And women?" |
29390 | He had mentioned madness: was he, Professor Ramsey Burr, crazy? |
29390 | His thoughts took a strange turn:"Why do these vain people go around dressed in jeweled ornaments?" |
29390 | How close were some of these to the United States? |
29390 | How could it be the_ Planetara_? |
29390 | How could she get the authorities to consent to her son having the suit? |
29390 | How did the intervening days pass? |
29390 | How did you manage it?" |
29390 | How do you like your new assignment?" |
29390 | How much technical knowledge of signaling instruments did this brigand leader have? |
29390 | How much will you sell me your body for?'' |
29390 | How skilled at mathematics were these brigands? |
29390 | How?" |
29390 | I added,"Shall we go?" |
29390 | I felt a thrill of instinctive fear-- would she plunge that knife into me? |
29390 | I heard Moa mutter:"So that is it?" |
29390 | I said,"Shall I make the exposure?" |
29390 | I suppose that you fellows are pretty busy getting ready for Premier McDougal''s visit?" |
29390 | I thought,"Is Snap concerned with this?" |
29390 | I wonder if I could subscribe to Astounding Stories? |
29390 | I wonder...."Was it an omen of the future for the West? |
29390 | In his hand he gripped a small segment of black fabric, a piece torn from an invisible cloak? |
29390 | Is it not so? |
29390 | Is that it?" |
29390 | Is that so?" |
29390 | Is that what you''re remembering, Gregg Haljan?" |
29390 | Is there anything remarkable about that? |
29390 | Is there?" |
29390 | It struck me-- could I turn that confusion to account? |
29390 | Johnny Grantline?" |
29390 | Just think of that being loose, will you? |
29390 | Killed by something? |
29390 | Long range projectors?" |
29390 | Love? |
29390 | Maybe you''ve been--?" |
29390 | Miko, Hahn, Coniston-- could I fool them? |
29390 | Moyen? |
29390 | My cue? |
29390 | Near the crater of Archimedes? |
29390 | Need more be said? |
29390 | No more trouble? |
29390 | Not George Prince? |
29390 | Not bad at all, eh?" |
29390 | Not to encounter Grantline at once, Miko? |
29390 | Or a suicide? |
29390 | Or is Grantline so cautious it will all be protected?" |
29390 | Or was it an hour? |
29390 | Or was it? |
29390 | Or, since now I was armed, why could I not boldly start an assault? |
29390 | Our first night out from the Earth-- Grantline''s signals-- didn''t it ever occur to you that I might have some figures on his treasure?" |
29390 | Perhaps you think you are clever? |
29390 | Phwat th''divil arre yer doin''in th''house uv a rayspictable female at this hour uv th''marnin''?" |
29390 | Professor, will you kindly range the ocean, beginning at once, and see how many of these monsters of Moyen we have to contend with?" |
29390 | Remember we were arguin''it last week? |
29390 | Saved? |
29390 | Shall I call him?" |
29390 | Shall we go closer, Haljan?" |
29390 | Should I be?" |
29390 | So, Anita, you were masquerading to spy upon me? |
29390 | Suppose something went wrong, and the exchange did not take place, and her son, that is, his spirit, went back to the death house? |
29390 | Suppose you let me have a talk with Prince? |
29390 | Taking her chance for rescue with Dr. Frank, Venza and the others? |
29390 | Tell me with your eyes, for Moyen may even know this writing, and I am sure he hears what we say here, may even be able to see us?" |
29390 | That airplane of the slanted wings, the bulbous, almost bulletlike fuselage, what of it? |
29390 | That sounds wild, does n''t it? |
29390 | The brigand menace past? |
29390 | The other question is this: has he any form of skin trouble?" |
29390 | The sinking occurred at ten- thirty last evening you say, Kleig? |
29390 | Then why are you cold under my touch? |
29390 | To what purpose? |
29390 | Tycho, for instance, at this angle? |
29390 | Tycho, viewed from there--""And take another quarter- day of time?" |
29390 | Venza here, dying? |
29390 | Venza here? |
29390 | Was I invisible in this light? |
29390 | Was it nonsense, this idea of transporting bodies through the air, in invisible waves? |
29390 | Was it? |
29390 | Was that it?" |
29390 | Were her eyes going back on her? |
29390 | Were we going toward the Grantline camp? |
29390 | Were we not indeed fatuous fools? |
29390 | What am I to do besides this?" |
29390 | What can you do? |
29390 | What could we dare attempt to do? |
29390 | What could we do? |
29390 | What do his eyes look like?" |
29390 | What do you suspect?" |
29390 | What do you want with my body?'' |
29390 | What does Prester Kleig think of this man? |
29390 | What else can one say about him? |
29390 | What excuse shall I give? |
29390 | What ghastly terrors of Moyen roamed the deeps of the Atlantic, of the Pacific, the oceans of the world? |
29390 | What had happened to Hahn? |
29390 | What happened?" |
29390 | What if Burr were mad? |
29390 | What is this?" |
29390 | What is wrong? |
29390 | What more was there to be said? |
29390 | What was it Grantline said? |
29390 | What was this? |
29390 | When I had lashed him as fiercely as I was able I cried:"Why do n''t you come at me? |
29390 | When do you figure she''ll be back here, and signal us?" |
29390 | When was this mental disability on the part of the President first noticed?" |
29390 | Where are we going?" |
29390 | Where had he last thought of those two words? |
29390 | Where is Miko? |
29390 | Where is she? |
29390 | Where is that ass Coniston? |
29390 | Where was Anita? |
29390 | Where, for instance, is Grantline located?" |
29390 | Which building do you think it is, Bolton?" |
29390 | Which way? |
29390 | Who will follow me against these people?" |
29390 | Who''s winning there? |
29390 | Why did you not strive more for height? |
29390 | Why had I not contrived to have Anita desert at the asteroid? |
29390 | Why had Moyen bidden them turn their attention to these shells of erstwhile naval grandeur? |
29390 | Why not increase the size of the magazine to that of Miss 1900 or Forest and Stream? |
29390 | Why should I not? |
29390 | Why? |
29390 | Why? |
29390 | Will you come over, Commander?" |
29390 | Will you face the dangers of a trip to Venus and use your knowledge to aid us in exterminating these creatures of hell?" |
29390 | Will you let me know? |
29390 | Will you take the controls?" |
29390 | Will you tell me why you make this particular suggestion?" |
29390 | With his last frenzy determined to kill us all? |
29390 | With what recent catastrophe were they associated? |
29390 | Wonder if there could be anything to it?" |
29390 | Wonder where he got the Frying Pan idea? |
29390 | Would he tell me that? |
29390 | Would it be possible, now at the last moment, to attack these brigands? |
29390 | Would it not have been far better for her there? |
29390 | Would she be successful? |
29390 | Would she come back? |
29390 | Would she tell me? |
29390 | Would some Earth telescope be able to see us? |
29390 | Would some Earth- station pick it up? |
29390 | Would the American flyers be able to hold off the minions of Moyen until Maniel was ready? |
29390 | Would they see our tiny waving headlights? |
29390 | Would we find him lying dead? |
29390 | Would wonders never cease? |
29390 | You blame me, Haljan, for the killing of Captain Carter? |
29390 | You do n''t believe it?" |
29390 | You do n''t mind staying down? |
29390 | You do not wish me to write my name upon your chest? |
29390 | You have the suit, the cups and the director coil? |
29390 | You know that when light is reflected the angle of reflection always equals the angle of incidence? |
29390 | You say he gave you the code- words we took from Johnson?" |
29390 | You think I do not know what is on your mind, Haljan? |
29390 | You understand? |
29390 | You understand?" |
29390 | You visit your son daily at the death house, do you not?" |
29390 | You will give them apparatus with which to signal?" |
29390 | You''re Haljan? |
29390 | You''re all right? |
29390 | You''ve never seen me miss a Saturday night yet, have you now?" |
29390 | You, Dean?_"Their personal code. |
29390 | You_ know_, do you?" |
29390 | Your figures gave that, did they not, Gregg?" |
29919 | ''Are not two prayers a perfect strength?'' |
29919 | A grave danger? |
29919 | A voice, was it? |
29919 | Afraid of what? |
29919 | All ready, Kay? |
29919 | And what could he do, unless it''s my liver? |
29919 | And you, sir? 29919 And,"he asked;"if they attack-- what then? |
29919 | Any markings? |
29919 | Any new dots and dashes? 29919 Anything to identify it?" |
29919 | Because if we are trapped and caught, of what use is the price we might have gotten? 29919 But is n''t there any help for it?" |
29919 | But the_ Nomad?_he asked. |
29919 | But what? 29919 But why the wild interest in this particular doctor?" |
29919 | But you did see that flash? |
29919 | But-- the quills? |
29919 | Ca n''t you trust me? |
29919 | Carr,the girl whispered, after a time,"where are we going?" |
29919 | Cliff, you''re not badly hurt? |
29919 | Cliff, you''re not hurt? |
29919 | Clouds? |
29919 | Could that flash have been a signal? |
29919 | Did I? 29919 Did n''t he''sic us on''neatly? |
29919 | Did they get you, old man? |
29919 | Did you hear that? |
29919 | Did you see it? |
29919 | Did you see it? |
29919 | Do n''t you know you''ve done a miraculous thing? 29919 Do n''t you remember? |
29919 | Do you know that you are turning a delicate and beautiful romance into a lascivious libel on the human race? |
29919 | Does he know it''s me? |
29919 | Dr. Friedrich von Stein? |
29919 | Find it? |
29919 | Glad you came? |
29919 | Glimpsed the surface?--an island? |
29919 | Hanley''s office? |
29919 | Hello, Lieutenant-- the enemy ship-- where is it now? |
29919 | Hello, old sock,he said,"had a bad dream?" |
29919 | His guards-- the fleet-- what''s happened? |
29919 | How about me? |
29919 | How about yourself? |
29919 | How can there be a sea out there in space? |
29919 | How could you? |
29919 | How do you suppose we''ll make ourselves understood to the people of Europa? |
29919 | How in time are we to find this city of golden domes? |
29919 | How long have we got, Kay? |
29919 | How, Carr? |
29919 | I insisted upon you and Hans-- Gutierrez, what is that? |
29919 | If he is in? |
29919 | Is Venus Signalling? |
29919 | Is he--? |
29919 | Is it so,_ Niña_? 29919 Is it-- some one else?" |
29919 | Is she-- are we safe? |
29919 | Is that it? |
29919 | Is that part of the treatment? |
29919 | It is Mr. and Mrs. Parker, I believe? 29919 Just what?" |
29919 | Lay your foul hands on Ora, will you? 29919 Like your job?" |
29919 | Lyman? 29919 Made plenty of money yourself, did n''t you, Carr?" |
29919 | Many of them? |
29919 | May we see Dr. von Stein? |
29919 | Me? 29919 Meaning--?" |
29919 | My boy,he said,"did you do these?" |
29919 | No internal gravity mechanism on the_ Nomad_? |
29919 | No kick, eh? 29919 Not so bad, Hans? |
29919 | Not the people of Europa? |
29919 | Now why did n''t you tell me that before? 29919 Now would n''t that jar you?" |
29919 | Now, how about it? |
29919 | Oh, are you awake? |
29919 | Oh, is that so? |
29919 | Proctor? 29919 Quite a shop,"he admitted;"but where is the telescope?" |
29919 | Rapaju? |
29919 | Rapaju? |
29919 | Ready for bed? |
29919 | Ready to go up and give merry hell to that other ship if she shows up? |
29919 | Right now? |
29919 | Say, if them Giants comes up here yuh know what us folks is going to do? 29919 See anything?" |
29919 | Shall I cut him loose now from his chair, Commander? |
29919 | So our efforts have been wasted, have they? 29919 So soon? |
29919 | So you think,he said, when there was opportunity,"that you can help me, Dr. von Stein?" |
29919 | Stand up, ca n''t you? |
29919 | Still defiant, eh? 29919 Surely Miss Ora does not intend to come with us?" |
29919 | Tell you? 29919 The Americano?" |
29919 | The Wasp in sight? |
29919 | The captive is safe? 29919 The chief plays with woman''s words, no? |
29919 | They leave that soon? |
29919 | Thinking of Cliff? |
29919 | To-- to stay? |
29919 | Von Stein? |
29919 | Was it the commander, Gutierrez? |
29919 | Was the planet communicating? |
29919 | Well, what''s to prevent it? |
29919 | Well? |
29919 | Well? |
29919 | Well? |
29919 | Well? |
29919 | What are you going to do? |
29919 | What are you talking about? |
29919 | What can I do for you? |
29919 | What can we do with the_ Nomad_? |
29919 | What do you mean by that? |
29919 | What do you mean-- a proposition? |
29919 | What do you think of this stuff? |
29919 | What in thunder is that? |
29919 | What is it, Carr? |
29919 | What is it, sweetheart? |
29919 | What is it? |
29919 | What is that? |
29919 | What is your plan? |
29919 | What sort of a danger? |
29919 | What sort of a reception do you suppose we''ll get? |
29919 | What use would that be against the Earth Giants? 29919 What''s that?" |
29919 | What''s that? |
29919 | What''s this? |
29919 | What''s wrong? |
29919 | What? 29919 When did you first hear this?" |
29919 | Where''ll we land, Detis? |
29919 | Where''s that? |
29919 | Where? |
29919 | Who but the devil was the father of magic? |
29919 | Who? |
29919 | Why come here, with so much to be seen out there? |
29919 | Why not go to see that new doctor? |
29919 | Why not? 29919 Why not?" |
29919 | Why,they asked,"should there be more unprovoked assaults from the people of another planet? |
29919 | Why? |
29919 | Will you give us time to talk it over and think about it? |
29919 | Would I? |
29919 | You all right? |
29919 | You come from New York? |
29919 | You have noticed that copper bowl? |
29919 | You honestly believe them able to do this? |
29919 | You knew that Cordelia Lyman died a short time ago, did n''t you? |
29919 | You know what will happen, Heinrich? |
29919 | You promise you will return me alive? 29919 You saw that bit about the new Chinese disintegrator? |
29919 | You saw through? |
29919 | You''ve been out-- how long? |
29919 | You-- can you raise Great New York on the audiphone, Hendrick? |
29919 | Your stock? |
29919 | _ Comprenez vous Francaise?_..._ Non?_... German, perhaps, or Spanish?... |
29919 | _ Comprenez vous Francaise?_..._ Non?_... German, perhaps, or Spanish?... |
29919 | _ Comprenez vous Francaise?_..._ Non?_... German, perhaps, or Spanish?... |
29919 | _ Sprecken sie Deutsche?__ Usted habla Española?_...He followed with a fusillade of questions in strange and varying tongues. |
29919 | _ Sprecken sie Deutsche?__ Usted habla Española?_...He followed with a fusillade of questions in strange and varying tongues. |
29919 | ***** Fortunate for him that the meteor had not been completely covered by water, he thought-- but was it fortunate? |
29919 | ***** How many of them were there? |
29919 | ***** The logical thing to do, yes-- but how? |
29919 | *****"Beats the rocket motors and bulky fuel of the regular liners a mile, does n''t it? |
29919 | *****"There,"said Lieutenant McGuire,"--doesn''t that elevate your mind? |
29919 | A vampire, if there is such a thing? |
29919 | A witch? |
29919 | All right with you?" |
29919 | All right?" |
29919 | Am I correct?" |
29919 | And alone?" |
29919 | And shall I feel afraid?" |
29919 | And suppose you kill him-- won''t they track you just the same, Hendrick?" |
29919 | And the enemy ship--? |
29919 | And what''s the idea of the private ship? |
29919 | And where do you keep it? |
29919 | And who may say that man is free from the Venerian danger? |
29919 | And why did not our own planes escape?... |
29919 | And, as Ruth remained silent,"Ruth, it is n''t Cliff Hymes, is it? |
29919 | Approaching footsteps? |
29919 | Are the people of Venus trying to communicate? |
29919 | Are we flying-- in the clouds?" |
29919 | Are you game?" |
29919 | Are you game?" |
29919 | Are you, by chance, a psycho- analyst? |
29919 | Both of you, I assume, know something of the radio? |
29919 | But how about the fleet behind them? |
29919 | But how come? |
29919 | But since when are you a navigator, Mado?" |
29919 | But suppose a wandering meteor or a tiny asteroid gets in the way? |
29919 | But that is the more charming, eh? |
29919 | But what agency had done this strange thing? |
29919 | But what are you doing here?" |
29919 | But what could be sweeter for use in one of our regular atomic motors? |
29919 | But what do you mean-- make the fuel?" |
29919 | But what''s wrong with you Carr? |
29919 | But why not give a sequel about the other and more terrible creatures in the earth whom the madman spoke of? |
29919 | But why? |
29919 | But you will take me first to Cape Town, Hendrick? |
29919 | But you will take your share of his ransom, wo n''t you? |
29919 | But your father-- Mado?" |
29919 | But, even if the magazine were enlarged and the price boosted to a quarter, do you really think that we get enough material to devour? |
29919 | But-- but, how did you learn English?" |
29919 | By damn, what is this?" |
29919 | Call Hanley, eh?" |
29919 | Calling you, Gutierrez? |
29919 | Can it be done and still bar his instruments from locating us?" |
29919 | Can you come here a moment, please?" |
29919 | Carry you out through the cool reaches of interplanetary space? |
29919 | Chah-- that would give him a start, would n''t it? |
29919 | Clever of me, do n''t you think, to persuade Hendrick to take us to Cape Town? |
29919 | Come all the way from home in it?" |
29919 | Could I creep in there, surprise De Boer now, and kill him? |
29919 | Could he use it? |
29919 | Could it have meant in any way the launching of a projectile-- a ship-- to travel Earthward through space?" |
29919 | Could that have been the flash of a-- a rocket? |
29919 | De Boer was saying:"But why, Jetta, should I bother with your ideas? |
29919 | Detis? |
29919 | Did Hanley have an invisible flyer out there? |
29919 | Did Mado intend to lead the fleet into the embrace of that dreadful monster they had so fortunately escaped? |
29919 | Did he know he was mortally wounded? |
29919 | Did n''t think I''d go, did you, you stupid old dear?" |
29919 | Did that music have a meaning? |
29919 | Did they have radio? |
29919 | Did they wish only to learn the extent of our knowledge, our culture? |
29919 | Do n''t you think so?" |
29919 | Do you both follow me?" |
29919 | Do you get enough air?" |
29919 | Do you mean to say that someone could do this to me maliciously?" |
29919 | Europa, Ora, Rapaju-- all of it? |
29919 | Ever been on one of the asteroids? |
29919 | Ever seen the Sargasso Sea of the solar system? |
29919 | Ever seen the other side of the Moon-- Uranus-- Neptune-- Planet 9, the farthest out from the sun?" |
29919 | Five feet ahead of me? |
29919 | From Venus? |
29919 | Get it?" |
29919 | Great God, was she safe here? |
29919 | Had De Boer gone into this solid blackness, to lure me? |
29919 | Had they, too, found them suggestive of forts on the frontier of a world, defenses against invasion from out there? |
29919 | Have n''t I promised?" |
29919 | Have the Venusians penetrated their cloak of cloud masses with a visible light? |
29919 | Have you ever heard of the world being saved by one man? |
29919 | Have you, perhaps, an enemy?" |
29919 | Heavy?" |
29919 | Hendrick, listen--""Well, what?" |
29919 | Hendrick-- why not? |
29919 | How about it? |
29919 | How could I have forgotten him? |
29919 | How could I tell you? |
29919 | How did you do it? |
29919 | How did you guess? |
29919 | How does it operate? |
29919 | How far is it?" |
29919 | How meet them? |
29919 | How much more difficult would it be to force anything from him? |
29919 | How shall we celebrate?" |
29919 | How you''ve been and how come you''ve rebelled, too? |
29919 | How''s that for simple?" |
29919 | I had a hunch Ruth would draw one of those numbers...._ How long?_"The swaying masses of gray jelly were very near them. |
29919 | I have no attraction? |
29919 | I must adjust my explanation to-- what shall I say? |
29919 | I wonder, did they mean to wipe him out or were they only scared off?" |
29919 | I''d--""Why this sudden ardor, Kay?" |
29919 | If he could navigate the_ Nomad_ himself, why did n''t he? |
29919 | Is it possible for you to use a better and thinner grade of paper? |
29919 | Is that clear?" |
29919 | Is that satisfactory?" |
29919 | Is their fire to be returned?" |
29919 | Is there life there? |
29919 | It attacked with gas, you say?... |
29919 | Japan? |
29919 | Jetta''s? |
29919 | Just because you are bigger than I am--""Hear that, Jetta? |
29919 | Man, do n''t you realize you''re free? |
29919 | May I expect you? |
29919 | May I reiterate one fact? |
29919 | McGuire?... |
29919 | Men? |
29919 | Mind?" |
29919 | Mr. Editor, do you remember way back when you said we should write in to you to tell you of the stories we want and that you would get them for us? |
29919 | My hollow empty voice echoed back as I softly responded:"Yes?" |
29919 | No trouble?" |
29919 | No-- the commander calling? |
29919 | Not hurt me?" |
29919 | Not using a private space- flier on your business trips, are you?" |
29919 | Now say: have you any suggestions on how I can safely ransom you?" |
29919 | Now tell me: what in the devil have you got in your mind?" |
29919 | Of what significance, of what portent-- who could tell? |
29919 | Oh, the old lady down the street who left her money to found a home for aged spinsters? |
29919 | Or did they know them for what they were? |
29919 | Or ten? |
29919 | Or that this valley was peopled with what could best be described as organized protoplasm? |
29919 | Or twenty? |
29919 | Or was it that the thing radiated energies unknown to science? |
29919 | Parker?" |
29919 | Red Russia? |
29919 | Rescue? |
29919 | Rocks? |
29919 | Safest for us, eh, Hans?" |
29919 | Saved my own, too, did n''t I? |
29919 | See? |
29919 | She walked close to him, holding his arm, and repeated softly:"Are not two prayers a perfect strength? |
29919 | Should America sacrifice a hundred thousand of her boys and girls each year, when human life was cheap in China? |
29919 | Some eruption, perhaps, this we have seen-- an ignition of gasses in the upper air-- who knows? |
29919 | Take it off this infernally hot night? |
29919 | Tell me that, wise one?" |
29919 | Ten thousand? |
29919 | That suit you?" |
29919 | The Venerians had reproduced his knowledge in their brains; why would n''t it be possible for him to reverse the operation? |
29919 | The huge enemy was approaching slowly: was it damaged? |
29919 | The mass of that monstrosity must be terrific, else why had it such a power of attraction for other bodies? |
29919 | Then what? |
29919 | There are two of them, one loud and one faint-- right?" |
29919 | They''ve taken the_ Nomad_?" |
29919 | Thought he had cowed him, did he? |
29919 | To the pilot he ordered:"Say nothing of this-- not a word-- get that? |
29919 | To your knowledge of the higher reaches of scientific thought?" |
29919 | True, he was alive now, thanks to the tiny island, but how long would he remain alive without food or water, and without hope of securing either? |
29919 | Vagabonds need money?" |
29919 | Want to go home?" |
29919 | Wants you himself, does he? |
29919 | Was Gutierrez guarding me here in the corridor? |
29919 | Was it possible that anyone could like those drawings? |
29919 | Was it possible that the psenium emanations would succeed where the Millikan rays, the W- ray had failed? |
29919 | Was it? |
29919 | Was it? |
29919 | Was this death? |
29919 | Was this the end of everything for us? |
29919 | Was this war-- and with whom? |
29919 | We have a hundred men now? |
29919 | Well what? |
29919 | Well, what of it? |
29919 | Well, why not go? |
29919 | Were there more to come? |
29919 | Were they friendly, perhaps?--half- timid and fearful of what they might find? |
29919 | Were those cities, those shadow- splashed areas of gray and rose?... |
29919 | What about it?" |
29919 | What are they looking for? |
29919 | What are you figuring on doing with yourself?" |
29919 | What better chance? |
29919 | What did it mean? |
29919 | What did it mean? |
29919 | What did these new- comers think of them? |
29919 | What difference would it make in half an hour? |
29919 | What do you say?" |
29919 | What do you think of her?" |
29919 | What else was there to do? |
29919 | What for? |
29919 | What had Mado marked for his attention? |
29919 | What had all this to do with Venus? |
29919 | What had happened? |
29919 | What had science to say? |
29919 | What had that other world to gain? |
29919 | What had they to gain? |
29919 | What had this craft to do with the air? |
29919 | What happened? |
29919 | What in the name of Saturn did you do?" |
29919 | What in the world made you think of that?" |
29919 | What is it? |
29919 | What is she? |
29919 | What is this incredible thing you are planning?" |
29919 | What is this mysterious power that enables organic forms to withstand the terrific bombardment of the W- ray?" |
29919 | What is your plan?" |
29919 | What is your trouble?" |
29919 | What possible connection had these half- human things with that boyhood recollection? |
29919 | What time is it?" |
29919 | What was it? |
29919 | What was their object? |
29919 | What was to prevent his strapping this being into the high- backed chair to which he had been secured some time before? |
29919 | What would we have done, if conditions had been reversed?" |
29919 | What would you do to ransom him safely?" |
29919 | What would you have? |
29919 | What''s on your mind, Mac?" |
29919 | When will Edmond Hamilton''s first story be published in Astounding Stories? |
29919 | Where are we now and where bound?" |
29919 | Where are we, Lieutenant McGuire? |
29919 | Where is it-- the thing, I mean?" |
29919 | Where was Mado? |
29919 | Who can tell? |
29919 | Who knows but what those inhuman Venerian brutes may even now be planning some new invasion, may be preparing to renew their attack upon Earth? |
29919 | Who made it? |
29919 | Who mans it? |
29919 | Whoever-- whatever-- was sending that mysterious signal was coming near-- but was that nearness a matter of miles or of thousands of miles? |
29919 | Why bother with the reversal? |
29919 | Why could n''t he be sensible and companionable as they were? |
29919 | Why could n''t they just continue on their way as they had started out? |
29919 | Why could n''t you and Cliff make it destroy life?" |
29919 | Why did he think of potatoes sprouting in a cellar? |
29919 | Why do n''t they break through?" |
29919 | Why do you suppose they are so tenacious of life, Cliff?" |
29919 | Why had n''t he killed him? |
29919 | Why is it that Europa has not been discovered before this; that it''s inhabited, I mean?" |
29919 | Why not build your own Lowland Empire? |
29919 | Why not cut the paper smooth, the way you do in Five Novels Monthly? |
29919 | Why not gather a thousand? |
29919 | Why not get a story by Edgar Rice Burroughs, and some more by Ray Cummings? |
29919 | Why not have a page devoted to the authors? |
29919 | Why not take Betty for a sea trip? |
29919 | Why not, indeed? |
29919 | Why not?" |
29919 | Why not?" |
29919 | Why should we be attacked? |
29919 | Why, when the treasure divided so nicely among three, break it up to enrich a hundred? |
29919 | Why, why did n''t I kill him? |
29919 | Will it work, Cliff? |
29919 | Will you come?" |
29919 | Will you give us your opinion, your impressions?" |
29919 | Wo n''t you? |
29919 | Would Hanley be there? |
29919 | Would I ever see her again? |
29919 | Would Jetta and I succeed? |
29919 | Would Jetta soon, very soon now, be able to do her part? |
29919 | Would the machine work? |
29919 | Would there be more?--could we meet them?--defeat them? |
29919 | Would they send recognizable signals-- words-- or some mathematical sequence to prove their reality? |
29919 | Would you care to?" |
29919 | Yes, Lieutenant.... Over Mount Lawson?... |
29919 | You and I are well matched, eh?" |
29919 | You do care, do n''t you?" |
29919 | You do n''t mean the president of the Pine Hills National Bank?" |
29919 | You get all the breaks, do n''t you?" |
29919 | You had best go back: De Boer, he might be jealous of us, no? |
29919 | You hear it too?" |
29919 | You''re sure you want to?" |
29919 | You, Mr. Parker, and you, Madame, do you understand something of physics, of psychology, of metaphysics?" |
29919 | he said in a thin voice, and he seemed to know now that they were in the air;"I wonder-- I wonder-- if we shall land-- what country? |
29919 | they demanded one of another; would n''t another day do as well as this one? |
23335 | Ah, but did he? 23335 Am I correct in saying that you would n''t have gone out there if you''d known Snookums was a robot?" |
23335 | Am I interrupting something? |
23335 | And are you the Prince Charming who woke me up? |
23335 | And just how did you come across that information, Golden Wings? |
23335 | And now? |
23335 | And speaking of money, did n''t you come down here to buy something? |
23335 | And that''s the purpose of a shakedown cruise? |
23335 | And who would know more about teaching a child than a child psychologist? |
23335 | And you''ve been working with Snookums since you were eighteen? |
23335 | Any word from the_ Fireball_? |
23335 | Anything new? 23335 Are my senses playing me false, or have you stopped that beat note?" |
23335 | Are you doing something He does n''t want you to do? 23335 Are you going to let him?" |
23335 | Are you sure it was n''t mechanical damage? 23335 As a power engineer, you should be acquainted with the''pinch effect,''eh?" |
23335 | As evil- looking as Satanas himself? |
23335 | At the same time? |
23335 | Bart? |
23335 | Black Bart? |
23335 | Both of them? |
23335 | Broken home and sibling rivalry? 23335 Busy?" |
23335 | But what I want to know is: Why is it being built around a cryotronic brain, the like of which I have never heard before? |
23335 | But why should he want to kill you here on the ship? |
23335 | But would he have figured that out for himself? |
23335 | But-- how did he get that idea? |
23335 | But-- how do you know this is what Snookums was given? |
23335 | But--"Do you know why? |
23335 | But_ why_? 23335 Ca n''t we stop the ship and check them, so that we wo n''t be subjected to this?" |
23335 | Can Snookums read English? |
23335 | Can the presence of this drug be detected after death? |
23335 | Can you dance? |
23335 | Can you give me a prognosis? |
23335 | Can you see that? |
23335 | Can you understand? |
23335 | Cream? 23335 Dead?" |
23335 | Did he date much? |
23335 | Did he have more than one bottle? |
23335 | Did he, Mister Vaneski? 23335 Did you ever hear of Lysodine, Captain?" |
23335 | Did you ever wonder if a robot had a soul, Mike? |
23335 | Did you need help? |
23335 | Did you see anything at all? |
23335 | Do n''t you trust your own designing? |
23335 | Do you have any idea what that knowledge might be? |
23335 | Do you have any ideas? |
23335 | Do you remember when we took Mellon to his quarters after he tried to brain von Liegnitz? 23335 Does Chief Pasteur know what killed him yet, Captain?" |
23335 | Does a thing like that happen often? |
23335 | Does it hurt you to have Him watch you? |
23335 | Fix it so it would leak? |
23335 | For eight years? |
23335 | Games, children? |
23335 | Happen to know why it does n''t work? |
23335 | Harry? |
23335 | Has n''t that triply bedamned rocket landed yet, Lieutenant? 23335 Have n''t we met, Commander?" |
23335 | Have you been back in there yet? |
23335 | Have you notified Treadmore yet? |
23335 | He could read a book, then? |
23335 | Hell, Wally, Serge Paulvitch is on the job down there, is n''t he? 23335 His own experiments? |
23335 | How about Pete? |
23335 | How about it, Jake? |
23335 | How about men? |
23335 | How about my soul? |
23335 | How about the front? |
23335 | How could you be so sure, Commander? 23335 How did he fall? |
23335 | How did that happen? |
23335 | How did you ever solve a three- tube beat in that short a time? |
23335 | How do I get to him? |
23335 | How do I know that someone else was involved? |
23335 | How do you know? |
23335 | How does his breath smell to you? |
23335 | How does she look, Multhaus? |
23335 | How is Mister Mellon? |
23335 | How long have you been working with Snookums? |
23335 | How many tubes were goofing? |
23335 | How old are you, little boy? |
23335 | How so? |
23335 | How was I to know who you were? |
23335 | How''s his pulse? |
23335 | How''s she coming? |
23335 | How''s the girl today? |
23335 | How''s your shoulder? |
23335 | I guess I''m disenchanted, huh, Mike? |
23335 | I mean, was he a religious nut? 23335 I reckon you know you got competition, huh?" |
23335 | I suppose the gadget at Miss What''s- her- name''s belt was an alarm to warn you of impending disaster? |
23335 | I wonder if the so- called sociologists have any explanation for it? |
23335 | If that''s the case,said Captain Quill,"why do n''t they just shut the thing off?" |
23335 | Is n''t it Hell? 23335 Is n''t it?" |
23335 | Is n''t there any other way? |
23335 | Is that bad? 23335 Is that the information, the data, that makes Snookums so priceless, aside from his nucleonics work?" |
23335 | Is there anything else, Sergeant? |
23335 | It''s been quite a trip, has n''t it? 23335 Just because of his name?" |
23335 | Just out of curiosity, what kind of a name is Keku? |
23335 | Leda here? |
23335 | Leda, if I''m right-- if this_ is_ what has been causing Snookums''odd behavior-- can you cure him? |
23335 | Let me take a look at something, will you? |
23335 | Lew? |
23335 | Lieutenant, do you actually mean that you really do n''t know what''s going on here, or are you just dummying up? |
23335 | Lieutenant,_ what_ is going on here? 23335 Like what?" |
23335 | Look, lady,Mike said,"why do n''t you look up the number you want instead of bothering me?" |
23335 | May I be so bold as to ask_ why_, Mister Gabriel? |
23335 | May I borrow these three books? |
23335 | May I help you? |
23335 | May I talk to him? |
23335 | Me? 23335 Me? |
23335 | Mike,said Pete Jeffers,"why would anybody here want to kill Lew thataway? |
23335 | Mike-- did he really hit you? 23335 Mister Gabriel?" |
23335 | Mister von Liegnitz,said Captain Quill,"will you and Mister Keku take the prisoner to a safe place? |
23335 | My final inspection? |
23335 | None of your equipment registered anything? |
23335 | Now just what was_ that_ all about? |
23335 | Of all the times to have to come to Antarctica,he grumped as the door of the rocket opened,"why did I have to get July?" |
23335 | Reaction? 23335 Ready for your ride?" |
23335 | Remember,he asked,"the story of the Sleeping Beauty? |
23335 | Rough family, eh? |
23335 | Satisfaction? |
23335 | See anything else, Multhaus? |
23335 | Sir Gay? 23335 Sit down, wo n''t you?" |
23335 | Smell that? |
23335 | Snookums? |
23335 | So what? 23335 So?" |
23335 | Something busted? 23335 Sounds Oriental, does n''t it?" |
23335 | Such as? |
23335 | Sure you wo n''t have a mite? 23335 Tell me, Vaneski, are you in love with your half sister? |
23335 | That accident you were talking about, Sergeant-- the one that made those vibroblades blow, remember? 23335 That brain in Cargo Hold One is cargo, is n''t it?" |
23335 | That machine I saw is actually a remote- control tool, is n''t it? 23335 That''s it; did you go there?" |
23335 | That''s the one under the Cesare Alfieri Institute in Florence? |
23335 | That''s what you''ve been working on with Snookums? |
23335 | That''s where an archangel takes the form of a human being and travels around with Tobit the Younger, remember? 23335 The glass broke first?" |
23335 | The question that has bothered me from the beginning has been: Exactly what killed Lieutenant Mellon? 23335 Then what happened?" |
23335 | These illustrations are analogues of the human mind? |
23335 | They? |
23335 | Think we can go in there now? 23335 This the guy, Miss Crannon?" |
23335 | Timmins Building, eh? 23335 Wally, tell me-- what in the hell is going on down there at Chilblains Base?" |
23335 | Want to bet? |
23335 | Well, how did you mean that? |
23335 | Well, then,the roboticist continued,"if a mechanism is capable of learning, how do you keep it from becoming dangerous or destroying itself? |
23335 | Well, what happens to this base now, Doctor? |
23335 | What about Lew Mellon? |
23335 | What about Lieutenant Mellon''s peculiar actions? 23335 What about the synthecells they''re making at Boston Med?" |
23335 | What are you going to do about the apartment? |
23335 | What are you here for? |
23335 | What are you scared of? |
23335 | What are you talking about, Mister Gabriel? |
23335 | What are you talking about? |
23335 | What can I do for you, Captain? |
23335 | What could that be? |
23335 | What data, Snookums? |
23335 | What did I find out? |
23335 | What did he do to it? |
23335 | What did you do today, honey? |
23335 | What do I mean? 23335 What do you intend to do about it?" |
23335 | What do you mean, sir? |
23335 | What do you mean? 23335 What do you mean?" |
23335 | What do you think, Commander? |
23335 | What do you think, Mister Mellon? |
23335 | What good will it do you to watch Him? |
23335 | What happened after he came out of the closet? |
23335 | What happened to him? |
23335 | What happened, Pete? |
23335 | What happened? |
23335 | What happened? |
23335 | What happened? |
23335 | What happened? |
23335 | What happened? |
23335 | What has happened to Snookums? |
23335 | What if there was absolutely no way for Snookums to experiment with this knowledge? 23335 What in the bloody blazes happened last night?" |
23335 | What is it you want? |
23335 | What is it? |
23335 | What makes it necessary for you to circumvent God? |
23335 | What makes you think it was a JD? |
23335 | What size? |
23335 | What sort of theory? |
23335 | What the hell do you suppose was eating him? |
23335 | What the hell else can I do but woo and win the wench? |
23335 | What the hell happened here? |
23335 | What the hell''s the matter with you, anyway? |
23335 | What the hell? |
23335 | What was I saying just before Commander Gabriel came in? |
23335 | What was all that, sir? |
23335 | What was the other question? |
23335 | What will you do if he becomes completely uncontrollable? |
23335 | What will you do? 23335 What''d he die of, sir?" |
23335 | What''d you say? |
23335 | What''s he saying? |
23335 | What''s that got to do with his soul? |
23335 | What''s that supposed to mean, Wally? |
23335 | What''s the matter, honey? 23335 What''s the matter? |
23335 | What''s the trouble, Commander? |
23335 | What''s the trouble? |
23335 | What''s this theory? |
23335 | What''s to do? |
23335 | What? |
23335 | Whatever you are, then,said Mike,"would you mind explaining?" |
23335 | When was that, Mike? |
23335 | Where are you going, Snookums? |
23335 | Where is He hiding? |
23335 | Where is my room? |
23335 | Where is_ who_ hiding? |
23335 | Where''s Doc Fitz? |
23335 | Where''s the damage? |
23335 | Which would take longer? |
23335 | Who among you would have any reason to kill me? 23335 Who are you?" |
23335 | Who knows? 23335 Who''s Officer of the Watch tonight?" |
23335 | Who''s gunning for you? |
23335 | Who...? |
23335 | Who? |
23335 | Why are you worried about His watching? |
23335 | Why ca n''t we spot it right off? |
23335 | Why call him Sir Gay? |
23335 | Why did you go out in the blizzard? |
23335 | Why do you have to watch Him? |
23335 | Why do you want to find God, Snookums? |
23335 | Why do you want to know what He is doing? |
23335 | Why not wait until you got back to Earth, where he''d have a better chance? |
23335 | Why not? |
23335 | Why not? |
23335 | Why''undesirable''? |
23335 | Why? 23335 Why?" |
23335 | Why? |
23335 | Will the Chief Physician''s Mate report to Commander Jeffers in the maintenance tool room? 23335 Will we make it, sir?" |
23335 | Would you kill a man for jealousy? |
23335 | Would you like another cup? |
23335 | Would you mind explaining what this is all about, miss? |
23335 | Would you please tell Snookums why you went out there? 23335 Would you_ really_ like to know?" |
23335 | Yes, sir? |
23335 | Yes? |
23335 | You all right? |
23335 | You did n''t catch him? |
23335 | You do n''t happen to have a hundred- thousand- unit microcryotron stack, do you? |
23335 | You do n''t just want to confront him and call him a liar, do you? 23335 You do n''t mind talking about it?" |
23335 | You mean Jake von Liegnitz? |
23335 | You mean he did n''t practice it? |
23335 | You mean he''s working on_ telepathy_? |
23335 | You mean the_ Branchell_? |
23335 | You mean you did n''t know? |
23335 | You mean,she asked,"something like astrophysics?" |
23335 | You really mean that, do n''t you? |
23335 | You think you know why they did it? |
23335 | You want a drink? 23335 Your business?" |
23335 | _ Ja?_ Huh? 23335 _ Ja?_ Huh? |
23335 | _ Know_ him? 23335 _ Security_ office? |
23335 | _ What?_ This is Lew Mellon''s book? |
23335 | _ What?_ This is Lew Mellon''s book? |
23335 | 11"What I want to know,"said Lieutenant Keku,"is, what kind of ship is this?" |
23335 | Again they were all silent, but the question was on their faces: Who? |
23335 | Am I nutty, maybe?" |
23335 | And what is so blasted important about it?" |
23335 | And where were they heading? |
23335 | And why build a spaceship around it? |
23335 | And why from the end of the act? |
23335 | And, like all parents, she was asking herself:"What did I do wrong?" |
23335 | Another act to come? |
23335 | Any excuse?" |
23335 | Anything else?" |
23335 | Are there any more of them?" |
23335 | Are you all ready to go?" |
23335 | Are you really_ the_ M. R. Gabriel, of M. R. Gabriel, Power Design?" |
23335 | Are you sure everything''s all right down there?" |
23335 | Are you sure the vibration of the ship did n''t shake a-- something loose?" |
23335 | As he worked, he said:"You think you know where the rocket was fired from?" |
23335 | Back- patting, or just hero worship?" |
23335 | Before Mike the Angel could answer, Ensign Vaneski broke in with:"But the brain is going to be removed when we get to our destination, is n''t it? |
23335 | Besides, exactly what was wrong? |
23335 | But what I want to know-- and do n''t get sore-- is, did he show any kind of-- well,_ instability_ before this last outbreak?" |
23335 | But what would be the purpose of building a brain as gigantic as the one in Cargo Hold One? |
23335 | But who was on the other end? |
23335 | But why did he do it?" |
23335 | But-- shouldn''t we wait for the lab men?" |
23335 | Can I pick it up in the morning?" |
23335 | Can you be more specific than that, or is it too hush- hush?" |
23335 | Can you carry him, Keku?" |
23335 | Can you get those specs for me?" |
23335 | Can you photocopy them?" |
23335 | Could Snookums work with such a body of knowledge?" |
23335 | Did he act''holier than thou''or-- well, was he a fanatic, would you say?" |
23335 | Did he hit his head?" |
23335 | Did he refuse to stop when you ordered him to? |
23335 | Did you know him well, Pete?" |
23335 | Did you want to stay asleep all your life?" |
23335 | Do you have a copy of the thrust specifications for Cargo Hold One? |
23335 | Do you have any light to shed on this, Mister Vaneski?" |
23335 | Do you know anything about Lagerglocke''s Principle?" |
23335 | Do you know him well?" |
23335 | Do you remember Commander Gabriel?" |
23335 | Do you wish to speak to him?" |
23335 | Dr. Fitzhugh said:"Will you excuse us, Commander? |
23335 | Ever know a guy named Paulvitch?" |
23335 | First, what was it that Snookums was doing just before he came into the Power Section? |
23335 | Fitzhugh?" |
23335 | Fitzhugh?" |
23335 | Gabriel?" |
23335 | Gabriel?" |
23335 | Have I told you that I love you?" |
23335 | He gave his leg a final slap and said:"What happened? |
23335 | He hung it over the back of a chair and said:"Mind if I grab a cup of coffee, Doctor? |
23335 | He simply said,"How''d it happen?" |
23335 | He winced and yelled,"What''s the trouble?" |
23335 | How about bridge?" |
23335 | How about young Vaneski? |
23335 | How can a price be put on knowledge?" |
23335 | How come it does n''t work?" |
23335 | How could they? |
23335 | How do I get to His Despotic Majesty''s realm?" |
23335 | How does that tie in?" |
23335 | How is he? |
23335 | How long before we stop this beat note?" |
23335 | I repeat: Where is your pretty red spaceman''s suit?" |
23335 | I understand you designed her power plant...?" |
23335 | I''m looking for Captain Quill; where is he?" |
23335 | If you had a chance to get out of it gracefully, would you take back what you said?" |
23335 | Is a five- year- old competent to give orders to a robot? |
23335 | Is he?" |
23335 | Is it a passenger vessel, then? |
23335 | Is n''t it possible that an air current or something blew the smell away? |
23335 | Is n''t that right?" |
23335 | Is there a war on or something? |
23335 | Just what the devil is going_ on_ around this place?" |
23335 | Leda Crannon, looking tired but somehow pleased, said softly:"May I come in?" |
23335 | Lock the door, would ye?" |
23335 | Look, Wally, can you wait until tomorrow for those specs? |
23335 | Mike started to say,"At this time of night?" |
23335 | Mike the Angel stared at the microcryotron stack and asked:"Now, tell me, pal, just why would anyone want a brain that big? |
23335 | Mike the Angel watched the expression on the chief''s face and said:"What''s the matter, Multhaus? |
23335 | No like?" |
23335 | Now how the hell could that happen? |
23335 | Now what has this got to do with you and Snookums?" |
23335 | Now-- what happened?" |
23335 | Now--_how could Snookums have been at my door within two seconds after tearing out those switches_? |
23335 | Oh_ yeah_? |
23335 | Okay?" |
23335 | On the other hand, if he did n''t have what you wanted, he''d shake his head just a trifle, then squint up at you and say:"What d''ye want it for?" |
23335 | Or is it your half brother?" |
23335 | Or is there some kind of trouble you have n''t mentioned yet?" |
23335 | Peel that tape off, will you?" |
23335 | Pete Jeffers said:"Mike, if Mellon was poisoned, like you say, how come he was able to attack Mister Vaneski?" |
23335 | Reaction from this afternoon''s-- or, pardon me--_yesterday_ afternoon''s emergency?" |
23335 | Right?" |
23335 | Simply tell Snookums to forget all this stuff?" |
23335 | Snookums is a sweet little tyke, is n''t he?" |
23335 | So I usually think over what I say before I open my big mouth, do n''t I?" |
23335 | So what do you want? |
23335 | So what happened?" |
23335 | So you''re commanding the mystery tub, eh?" |
23335 | So?" |
23335 | Something He will punish you for?" |
23335 | Something more to happen? |
23335 | Spying for the corrupt and evil alien beings of Diomega Orionis IX?" |
23335 | Sugar?" |
23335 | That''s supposed to be_ my_ line, is n''t it?" |
23335 | Then he took a deep breath and said:"Do I look as bad as all that?" |
23335 | Therefore, Question One: Why was n''t the_ Branchell_ being built in space? |
23335 | Therefore, Question Two: Why was the_ Branchell_ being built around Cargo Hold One? |
23335 | Treadmore, looking like a tortured bloodhound, said:"But we''ll make it, wo n''t we?" |
23335 | Understand?" |
23335 | Want me to get them now?" |
23335 | Was he imagining things, or was there a peculiar note in Cowder''s voice? |
23335 | Was he queer?" |
23335 | Was it necessary to have an eight- hundred- pound, moron- genius child- machine running loose, too? |
23335 | Was it necessary to have|| an eight- hundred- pound, moron- genius child- machine running|| loose, too? |
23335 | What am I suspected of? |
23335 | What are you doing here?" |
23335 | What can I do for you?" |
23335 | What can I do for you?" |
23335 | What can I do?" |
23335 | What caused those vibroblades to burn up that way?" |
23335 | What did he tell you? |
23335 | What did you do, exactly?" |
23335 | What did you find out? |
23335 | What did you find out?" |
23335 | What does Chilblains need with a security office?" |
23335 | What does a psychologist have to do with robots? |
23335 | What happened?" |
23335 | What if he simply did not have the equipment necessary?" |
23335 | What is it, sir?" |
23335 | What is it? |
23335 | What is it?" |
23335 | What is it?" |
23335 | What is this system?" |
23335 | What price glory?" |
23335 | What would anybody have against him?" |
23335 | What''re you looking for?" |
23335 | What''s happened?" |
23335 | What''s the beef?" |
23335 | What''s the trouble?" |
23335 | What''s wrong with the low- power circuits?" |
23335 | What_ really_ happened?" |
23335 | When did I ever forget you?" |
23335 | Where is Commander Gabriel?" |
23335 | Where is this coffee haven?" |
23335 | Where is your uniform?" |
23335 | Which led to Question Three: What was_ in_ Cargo Hold One? |
23335 | Which one of us did it?" |
23335 | Who could it be this time? |
23335 | Who gave him the idea to make such an experiment as that?" |
23335 | Who knows what''s going on around here?" |
23335 | Who usually wins?" |
23335 | Who was driving the machine? |
23335 | Who was saying those inane things over the speaker that served the robot as a mouth? |
23335 | Who would buy electric power when he could generate his own for next to nothing? |
23335 | Who?" |
23335 | Why explain it to the crew? |
23335 | Why not just pack Snookums up, take him to wherever he was going, and say nothing about it? |
23335 | Why should a hairy pelt and a relatively low intelligence make a chimp non- human? |
23335 | Why should the Maintenance Officer be on duty right now?" |
23335 | Why take Snookums off Earth?" |
23335 | Why would he do such a thing, for goodness''sake?" |
23335 | Why?" |
23335 | Would n''t it be nice to be able to transform yourself into a swan? |
23335 | Would they work on a man? |
23335 | Would you say I was a pretty levelheaded guy?" |
23335 | You know he''s just a machine-- better than I do, I guess.... What is it, Mike?" |
23335 | You mean Serge Paulvitch, the Fiend of Florence?" |
23335 | You think I want to be a second- class genius working for a second- class outfit? |
23335 | You think I''m crazy? |
23335 | You want a little, eh, ol''buddy? |
23335 | _ Act One, the end of scene five._ But why had he been born to set it right? |
23335 | of E. build the brain on whatever planet we''re going to in the first place?" |
29255 | ... Might eavesdrop? 29255 A great man,"she murmured,"but is he-- a little mad?" |
29255 | A private citizen? |
29255 | Am I a prisoner? |
29255 | Am I crazy, Jim,I asked,"or do you see these things too?" |
29255 | And am I to land there, sir? |
29255 | And are we to stand here and let them do it? |
29255 | And gagged? 29255 And in this case?" |
29255 | And so he has walked away from you? 29255 And the_ Dorlos_?" |
29255 | And this,indicating the cross,"is the spot where the Quabos will break in?" |
29255 | And we are the first to enter thy realm from the upper world? |
29255 | And why, Perona? 29255 And you want to get rid of this fellow? |
29255 | And you will go to the mine? |
29255 | And you will pay it? |
29255 | Are n''t you satisfied? |
29255 | Are there three of them? |
29255 | Are they dead, Jim? |
29255 | Are you Spawn''s daughter? |
29255 | Are you ready down there? 29255 Are you ready, Pete?" |
29255 | But they must be, else why were n''t they seen? |
29255 | But this then, is not an ordinary time? |
29255 | But why are you dressed as a boy? |
29255 | But will they pay? |
29255 | But wo n''t it be just a repetition of the first battle? |
29255 | But, Professor,I argued,"it''s all over, is n''t it? |
29255 | But.... You can think of no explanation? |
29255 | Ca n''t you see anything, Pete? |
29255 | Can you imagine what would happen in New York in case of a break- down in water- supply, electric power, and communication? 29255 Chief?" |
29255 | Coincidence or connection? |
29255 | Come to your house? 29255 Conscious of the time, of the locality you went to? |
29255 | Dale,he said at length,"have you ever hunted tiger?" |
29255 | Dale,he whispered hoarsely,"what was it?" |
29255 | De duvel, why should I have sealed him in? 29255 Did n''t he once take a hand in Nareda''s politics?" |
29255 | Difference in temperature? |
29255 | Do any of you know where you are? |
29255 | Do n''t you know-- can''t drown a fish-- holding it under water? |
29255 | Do n''t you suppose these people who lock us in and censor our mail are n''t smart enough to spy on what we say to each other? |
29255 | Do you expect me to go on another one of your crack- brained expeditions into the unknown with you? |
29255 | Do you expect this hunt of ours will be something of a blind chase? |
29255 | Do you see? 29255 Do you suppose there is any hope of your embracing the Faith?" |
29255 | Doctor Dale? |
29255 | Does that window frame contain glass or not? |
29255 | Earthquake? |
29255 | Failed? |
29255 | Father,he sent his thoughts racing on ahead of him,"are those lights which are striking the Earth causing any damage?" |
29255 | From fear? |
29255 | Had they heard the details of the second disappearance? |
29255 | Has this frame glass in it? |
29255 | Hast thou, in the palace, any lengths of pipe like to that which the Quabos drag behind them? |
29255 | Have you been waiting here long? |
29255 | Have you ever been in a crowd, Dale, and watched a certain individual intently, until that particular individual turned to look at you? 29255 Have you found out what they intend to do with us?" |
29255 | Have you seen Smith and Francisco? |
29255 | Have you seen a morning paper? |
29255 | Have you seen everything? 29255 Have you solved the secret of their invisibility?" |
29255 | Hear them, Chief? |
29255 | Hello, Bond,came his voice over the wire,"have you just arrived? |
29255 | Hello, Williams,he said,"how are things going? |
29255 | Here at the mine? |
29255 | Here is the_ Dorlos_; the second of the two, was it not? |
29255 | How do they like it? |
29255 | How dost thou know of the tunneling? |
29255 | How long, father,queried Sarka,"should it take to empty the Gens areas?" |
29255 | How will we see them if they are invisible? |
29255 | I am sure you appreciate the fact that every precaution will be taken to hear the least word that you say to him during his stay here? 29255 I hope you did not intimate your real purpose?" |
29255 | I must certainly get my hands on one of these monsters... superhumanly intelligent fish... marvelous-- akin to the octopus, perhaps? |
29255 | If they are, why have n''t we received evidence of it years ago? |
29255 | If you can get President Markes, he can send some police to the mine--"And find all Nareda''s police bribed by Perona? 29255 Interplanetary cars? |
29255 | Is he a partner of Spawn''s? |
29255 | Is n''t it a beauty? |
29255 | Is n''t it? |
29255 | Is this a roughly accurate plan of the city? |
29255 | Jetta? |
29255 | Jim, all that sounds reasonable, but have you any proof of it? |
29255 | Just where are we going? |
29255 | Marry? |
29255 | May I meet you here to- morrow night? |
29255 | Much further, Hugo? |
29255 | Nine or ten hours? 29255 Of the trees?" |
29255 | Philip? |
29255 | Shall I call you? |
29255 | Shall we reduce speed, sir? |
29255 | So you''ve fallen in love with a girl? 29255 So, Perona?" |
29255 | So? 29255 Spawn has told you that?" |
29255 | Spawn? 29255 Stanley-- can either of you move? |
29255 | Suppose they are armed too? |
29255 | That means I''ve got to feed him taffy while he''s here? |
29255 | The hell-- how do I know, Perona? 29255 The invaders? |
29255 | The other two television observers? |
29255 | Then what of the Spokesmen of the Gens, who will be out of contact with me? |
29255 | Then you got me in here by fraud? |
29255 | There is no other entrance but the sea- way into which we were drawn? |
29255 | To lead another invasion? |
29255 | Was it in broad daylight? |
29255 | Was it too bold? |
29255 | Was that the thing I saw hoisted aboard just before we left? |
29255 | Well, gentlemen? 29255 Well, then, if Markes has told you, then might I not as well admit it? |
29255 | Well? |
29255 | What about reloading? |
29255 | What about the moon? |
29255 | What are they? |
29255 | What are we going to do with our prisoner? |
29255 | What are you going to do? |
29255 | What brings you here, young lad? 29255 What do I owe you?" |
29255 | What do you anticipate, sir? |
29255 | What do you find to talk about? |
29255 | What do you talk about all the time? 29255 What forms?" |
29255 | What is it you would plan to do about it, Señorito? |
29255 | What is that? |
29255 | What of it? |
29255 | What rule? 29255 What were the two reports, Dival?" |
29255 | What will happen? 29255 What will we do if we find them?" |
29255 | What''s the difference? |
29255 | What''s this? 29255 What''s up now? |
29255 | What''s your opinion, Martin? |
29255 | What? 29255 Where did they come from?" |
29255 | Who are you? |
29255 | Who are you? |
29255 | Who are you? |
29255 | Who would attack it? 29255 Why are they taking children, Jim? |
29255 | Why are they taking them to Mercury? |
29255 | Why at night? |
29255 | Why do n''t you run up to New York for a few days? |
29255 | Why do you marry-- unless you''re in love? 29255 Why do you take them?" |
29255 | Why is it impossible? |
29255 | Why so? |
29255 | Why? |
29255 | Will my friend be permitted to depart again, if he once gets in here? |
29255 | Wilson, tell me-- in God''s name-- what has happened? |
29255 | Would you like to come? |
29255 | Would you stand by and see people perish if a turn of your hand could save them? 29255 Yes, O my father; and is there anything else?" |
29255 | Yes, Vardee? 29255 You are, are n''t you?" |
29255 | You came very close to committing a murder on your way here, did you not, Dale? |
29255 | You got away? |
29255 | You have heard of the Special Patrol Ship_ Filanus_? |
29255 | You have n''t become a Science Communist yourself? |
29255 | You have no documents? |
29255 | You here? |
29255 | You know why I have come? |
29255 | You see now, Dale,Drake said quietly,"why I let Hartnett go with you before? |
29255 | You were conscious of every detail? |
29255 | You''re all right, Phil? 29255 _ Dios!_ Gone where, Spawn?" |
29255 | ***** Hanley''s microscopic voice cut in:"Getting it, Phil? |
29255 | ***** Was it a boy, observing us from the shadowed moonlit garden? |
29255 | ***** Woman? |
29255 | A beautiful name...."How did your kingdom begin?" |
29255 | A private individual: that fellow Jacob Spawn--""Spawn?" |
29255 | A treasure of quicksilver ingots here? |
29255 | A week, you say?" |
29255 | And I stammered,"But why are you going to marry?" |
29255 | And is each inhabited by some form of life?" |
29255 | And now, after we had gained admission, what excuse would Hartnett offer for the intrusion? |
29255 | And still the one question remained unanswered: Who was Luar? |
29255 | And the water-- did you notice its color, sir?" |
29255 | And why do n''t you have him to do all of your illustrating? |
29255 | And, if the descent were accomplished, what in the world would we see when we got down there? |
29255 | And, son....""Yes, O my father?" |
29255 | Are we going to make a trip to the moon and interview the inhabitants?" |
29255 | Are you alone? |
29255 | Are you beginning to itch and burn?" |
29255 | Are you interested?" |
29255 | Are you?" |
29255 | As I stepped to the telephone, I heard her murmur, in a weary, troubled voice:"Hypnotism? |
29255 | As the glowing people hurried to obey, Sarka softly asked his father:"But what shall we do with the Martians?" |
29255 | Balls of fire? |
29255 | Because of Jetta? |
29255 | Big, red- faced chap?" |
29255 | But this power-- this awful thing that has been controlling me-- is there no way to fight it?" |
29255 | But what conceivable fate could that be? |
29255 | But what? |
29255 | But who does it make rich? |
29255 | But why not give us a change? |
29255 | But.... How? |
29255 | CHAPTER V_ Mysterious Meeting_"Ah, Grant-- have you enjoyed yourself?" |
29255 | Call it an accident; what matter? |
29255 | Can it be that our planet is honeycombed with such hollows as this we are in? |
29255 | Can mere words describe my feelings? |
29255 | Can you pick off ten in ten shots?" |
29255 | Can you picture it? |
29255 | Can you say that the oceans will never drain of their water? |
29255 | Cleric?" |
29255 | Correy?" |
29255 | Could I get across the floor of the bowl without discovery? |
29255 | Could it further hold against the strain of lifting that combined tonnage through the press of the water? |
29255 | Could there be smuggling going on from this mine? |
29255 | Could we make it? |
29255 | Could you, by chance, secure an artist by the name of Leo Morey or Hugh Mackay? |
29255 | De Boer:"... Get up with my men through the streets to Spawn''s house? |
29255 | Descend and investigate? |
29255 | Did he?" |
29255 | Did not he mention it? |
29255 | Did you ever see anything like it?" |
29255 | Dival?" |
29255 | Dival?" |
29255 | Do you know about it?" |
29255 | Do you mind telling me just what it is?" |
29255 | Do you not ever pick the newscasters''reports, De Boer? |
29255 | Do you not see that she is waiting for you to speak?" |
29255 | Do you think that the world has been invaded?" |
29255 | Do you understand everything?" |
29255 | Do you understand?" |
29255 | Do you understand?" |
29255 | Does it?" |
29255 | Even though you might think it silly?" |
29255 | Ever you have heard of him?" |
29255 | Everything shipshape: perhaps, a degree or two of elevation when we were a little closer--"May I come in sir?" |
29255 | Evidently Hartnett had been carefully instructed as to his course of action-- but why this seemingly unnecessary caution on Drake''s part? |
29255 | Evolution working backward from human to reptile and then fish-- or a new freak of evolution whereby a fish on a short cut toward becoming human?" |
29255 | Father, will you please arrange the division? |
29255 | Gigantic, hitherto unknown fishes? |
29255 | Going to marry her to this Perona? |
29255 | Got her bound and gagged, have they? |
29255 | Granted that such is the case, do you believe that living organisms can be invisible?" |
29255 | Had Sarka the Second been able to prepare for the approaching catastrophe? |
29255 | Had he heard us discussing Jetta? |
29255 | Had the Earth been taken by surprise? |
29255 | Hanley''s microscopic voice:"Phil? |
29255 | Has any observer been able to see any of the purple amoeba which we know are so numerous on the outer side of the heaviside layer?" |
29255 | Has he a daughter?" |
29255 | Has it not been a scandal that this administration does very little for its citizens abroad?" |
29255 | Has your message anything to do with this?" |
29255 | Have you any idea who did?" |
29255 | Have you any preconceived ideas on the disappearance epidemic?" |
29255 | Have you come to be a coward, De Boer?" |
29255 | Have you ever been under hypnotism, Dale? |
29255 | Have you ever thought of combining the two?" |
29255 | Have you got flash- fuses?" |
29255 | He added,"You think-- Hanley thinks-- the smuggling is on too large a scale to be any illicit producer?" |
29255 | He merely asked a question:"Was Lunar very beautiful, and just a bit unearthly in appearance?" |
29255 | How can I? |
29255 | How could I make anything out of it? |
29255 | How could I read any message out of that? |
29255 | How could I? |
29255 | How could Strange, working his terrible murder machine, concentrate his power on any individual, when the whole of London lay before him? |
29255 | How had they managed the first contact, the first negotiations leading to the compact between two such alien peoples? |
29255 | How had they salvaged us from Penguin Deep? |
29255 | How is your marksmanship? |
29255 | How is your menore adjusted, sir?" |
29255 | How many were there? |
29255 | How near to us are they, Kilor?" |
29255 | How, in God''s name, could this man read my thoughts so completely? |
29255 | I believe you are familiar with the traps provided for the purpose?" |
29255 | I said suddenly, out of a silence:"Spawn, why did n''t you tell me you were a producer of quicksilver?" |
29255 | I said,"Are n''t you afraid to leave this stored here?" |
29255 | I said,"You''ll house and care for my machine?" |
29255 | I suppose they have some kind of rock drilling machinery here?" |
29255 | I wonder if we are free to move about?" |
29255 | I wonder why you rate this distinction?" |
29255 | I wonder, do I make myself clear?" |
29255 | I wonder--""Have you any idea how we were rescued?" |
29255 | I wonder.... Is that part of their plan? |
29255 | If I brought the_ Kalid_ down, would she make a third to remain there, to be marked"lost in space"on the records of the Service? |
29255 | If she were a native of Earth, how had she reached the Moon? |
29255 | In Great New York, there are theatres and music?" |
29255 | In an hour, you say? |
29255 | Is it a dream to have some damnable force move me about like a mechanical robot?" |
29255 | Is it not so here? |
29255 | Is it so?" |
29255 | Is that clear?" |
29255 | Is that it, Perona? |
29255 | Is that not reason enough for murder? |
29255 | Is there any way they could manage...?" |
29255 | Jealous, eh?" |
29255 | Jetta was gagged; how could she answer me? |
29255 | Klaser? |
29255 | Like the Middle Ages?" |
29255 | Listening?" |
29255 | Marine growths, half animal and half vegetable? |
29255 | Maximum attraction, eh? |
