15976 | See you the windy levels spread About the gates of Rye? |
15976 | Shall I swear it?" |
15976 | Sir Richard bowed a little and went on:--''"Gold horseshoes on black?" |

15976 | When did they torture him?'' |
15976 | When didst thou come over to the Duke? |
15976 | When do we hang Gilbert?" |
15976 | When our Duke came out of Normandy to take his England, great knights( have ye heard?) |
15976 | Where are the Captains of the Wall?" |
15976 | Where did Gilbert hide that writing? |
15976 | Where did he get through?'' |
15976 | Where from?'' |
15976 | Where''ve you been?'' |
15976 | Wherefore does it point South-- or North?'' |
15976 | Which am I to follow?" |
15976 | Who a- plague has another key, then?" |
15976 | Who am I to meddle with things too high for me? |
15976 | Who will be the first to come through thereby? |
15976 | Who would stop them-- Fulke?" |
15976 | Why dost thou stay, and turn away? |
15976 | Why not? |
15976 | Why not? |
15976 | Why not? |

15976 | Why not?'' |
15976 | Why should_ I_ care for such things, my business being to reach my station? |
15976 | Wo n''t you, Puck?'' |
15976 | Ye see?'' |
15976 | Yet how could I? |
15976 | You meant that King John might have spent it on that?'' |
15976 | You play on my side?" |
15976 | You''d think nothin''easier than to walk eend- on acrost her? |
15976 | You''ve seen how flat she is-- the Marsh? |
15976 | You, Tom? |
15976 | said De Aquila, rubbing his nose,"to whom did he say that?" |
15976 | said Puck;''or"son of Adam"or"daughter of Eve"?'' |
15976 | said the farmer-- he was in a furious temper because I was walking the old horse in circles all this time--"What, you young jackanapes?" |
15976 | says Sebastian, and raps with his cow- tail on the table,"whose guns are they, then?" |
557 | ''Am I? |
557 | ''And now, how many catapults have you? |
557 | ''And thou wilt say nothing of what has passed? |
557 | ''And thou wilt surrender Pevensey without word or blow? |
557 | ''And what might you call yourself when you are at home? |
557 | ''Born in Britain? |
557 | ''But so long as I do not anger thee, my tale will be secret? |
557 | ''By the Saints,said he,"why didst thou not say thou wast on the Duke Robert''s side at the first?" |
557 | ''Do you also begin to bargain so early? |
557 | ''He hath done this day by day before our very face? |
557 | ''How could I know that De Aquila would give it me? |
557 | ''How did I tell you? |
557 | ''How dost thou know? |
557 | ''How long will it rise? |
557 | ''How will that profit us? |
557 | ''I? |
557 | ''Is n''t there any way for you to get back to Valhalla, or wherever you come from? |
557 | ''Is the Plague comin''to the Marsh? |
557 | ''Jest? 557 ''Nay,"said one elder,"prove to us that he lives"; and another said cunningly,"What will you give us if we read you his last words?" |
557 | ''Now, why has he grown so tender of his men of a sudden? |
557 | ''Only a life? 557 ''Shall we go?" |
557 | ''Shall we hang these? |
557 | ''Then we do nothing? |
557 | ''Then what do you recommend,said Maximus,"to keep the North quiet till I win Gaul?" |
557 | ''To me? |
557 | ''To which Empire? |
557 | ''What do you do, O my friend? |
557 | ''What do you do? |
557 | ''What if we will not come? |
557 | ''What is to do? |
557 | ''What other comfort have ye left me? |
557 | ''What service shall I pay? |
557 | ''What thieves''talk is that? |
557 | ''What was his shield- mark? |
557 | ''What would you have done,he said to me,"if I had not been here?" |
557 | ''What''s next? |
557 | ''What? |
557 | ''What? |
557 | ''Where did you hear of it? |
557 | ''Where is the Sorcerer? |
557 | ''Who made thee a Lawgiver in England? |
557 | ''Why should I? 557 ''Will the sea drown the Marsh?" |
557 | ''Will you write him that? |
557 | ''Witness those rings and roundelays, do you mean?'' |
557 | ''You think blackly today? |
557 | ''You think so? 557 ''You think so?" |
557 | And you? |
557 | Back again to earth, old foxes? |
557 | But what of the demi- cannon? 557 But will the war come our ways, think you?" |
557 | Can I work no more honest trading between the two sides these troublous times? |
557 | Do you fight against Theodosius? 557 Dost thou know, Richard, why Hugh slept, and why he still sleeps, among thy Norman men- at- arms?" |
557 | Has n''t he turned himself into a raw- beef- eating Scythian? |
557 | How can we make our holy heather- wine, if you burn our bee- pasture? |
557 | I have no keep at Dallington; and if we buried it, whom could we trust? |
557 | I suppose( he had eyes like an eagle''s)--"I suppose that is a trading- station also?" |
557 | Market- day, is it? 557 Oh, Sir John, Sir John, why did you never use the sea? |
557 | Shall I drop my dagger on his head? |
557 | Shall we tell our sons? |
557 | Six mounted men or twelve archers thou shalt send me whenever I call for them, and-- where got you that corn? |
557 | The Wall must be won at a price? |
557 | Then by your reasoning I ought to say''Thank you''to Satan if he helped me? |
557 | Well? |
557 | What avail is honour or a sword against a pen? 557 What can you guess what Maximus thinks, you old horse- coper?" |
557 | What did you pay him? |
557 | What does it foretell? |
557 | What is a handful of crushed oats to a Roman? |
557 | What is our fate to be, you fine and well- fed child? |
557 | What of our Manors? |
557 | What profit canst thou make of poor old pilgrims that can neither work nor fight? |
557 | What would you do if you were a handful of oats being crushed between the upper and lower stones of a mill? |
557 | What? |
557 | Where did you get your horse shod? |
557 | Why didst thou bring the child here? |
557 | Will it serve? |
557 | come back from Lunnon? |
557 | ''A Jew drew blood from a Christian and no more was said?'' |
557 | ''An''do you think your Pa''ud give me a drink for takin''you there, Missy?'' |
557 | ''And did you meet any adventures?'' |
557 | ''And had n''t you ever been into the house since?'' |
557 | ''And how did you feel?'' |
557 | ''And how did your play go?'' |
557 | ''And that was here at home?'' |
557 | ''And the fighting? |
557 | ''And the man was n''t really dead?'' |
557 | ''And the sword?'' |
557 | ''And was that Saxon Hugh the novice?'' |
557 | ''And were the children quite well?'' |
557 | ''And were you pleased?'' |
557 | ''And what did poor Weland do?'' |
557 | ''And what did we-- I mean, what did our village do?'' |
557 | ''And what did you do afterwards?'' |
557 | ''And what did you do?'' |
557 | ''And what did you think of it all?'' |
557 | ''And what did your Mother say when you came home? |
557 | ''And what do you have to eat?'' |
557 | ''And what happened after?'' |
557 | ''And what happened to Gilbert?'' |
557 | ''And what happened to the fat old General with the five cooks?'' |
557 | ''And why did Sir Richard and Brother Hugh leave it lying about? |
557 | ''And you? |
557 | ''And, of course, the sons were both quite cured?'' |
557 | ''Anything like tattooing?'' |
557 | ''Are they?'' |
557 | ''Are you going to magic it away?'' |
557 | ''Are you sure?'' |
557 | ''But Master Collins meant the guns for Sir Andrew Barton all along, did n''t he?'' |
557 | ''But are the books true?'' |
557 | ''But did he make it right with the King?'' |
557 | ''But did you know this was all going to happen just right?'' |
557 | ''But if we hang all fellows who write falsely, why did De Aquila not begin with Gilbert the Clerk? |
557 | ''But if you''ve seen a bullet--''''Seen?'' |
557 | ''But settin''that aside?'' |
557 | ''But tell me now, and I will not call you a babe but a Rabbi, why did the King sign the roll of the New Law at Runnymede? |
557 | ''But what did Elias of Bury do?'' |
557 | ''But what did you-- what did Robin promise the Widow?'' |
557 | ''But what happened to Hugh the novice?'' |
557 | ''But what lessons did you do-- when-- when you were little?'' |
557 | ''But what wonderful beast yields this stretching leather?'' |
557 | ''But where? |
557 | ''But you''re a Roman yourself, are n''t you?'' |
557 | ''Canst thou read, child?'' |
557 | ''Could n''t you get away before?'' |
557 | ''D''you marvel that I love it?'' |
557 | ''Did Robert ever land in Pevensey after all?'' |
557 | ''Did Weland see all this?'' |
557 | ''Did he get home all right?'' |
557 | ''Did n''t I say all good families are very much the same?'' |
557 | ''Did n''t the Faun tell you I was coming?'' |
557 | ''Did n''t you ever wonder who had put it there?'' |
557 | ''Did n''t you hate that?'' |
557 | ''Did she, now?'' |
557 | ''Did they all see it that way?'' |
557 | ''Did we not? |
557 | ''Did you have a governess, then?'' |
557 | ''Did you have to pass an Exam?'' |
557 | ''Did you know it was going to happen?'' |
557 | ''Did you never suspect ary one?'' |
557 | ''Do what? |
557 | ''Do ye?'' |
557 | ''Do you mean the Isle of Wight? |
557 | ''Do you mean this?'' |
557 | ''Do you really want to know?'' |
557 | ''Does that mean the Battle of Hastings-- Ten Sixty- Six?'' |
557 | ''Dost thou know of that, babe?'' |
557 | ''Eh?'' |
557 | ''Engines?'' |
557 | ''Fairies? |
557 | ''Fetch it? |
557 | ''Games? |
557 | ''Had you?'' |
557 | ''Hap you have heard it?'' |
557 | ''Happy?'' |
557 | ''Have you a knife on you?'' |
557 | ''Have you ever bin in the Marsh?'' |
557 | ''Have you ever explored North?'' |
557 | ''Have you ever heard me say that word yet?'' |
557 | ''Have you seen a painted lead- slinger?'' |
557 | ''Heroes of Asgard Thor?'' |
557 | ''How can I say? |
557 | ''How can it be round?'' |
557 | ''How could we have hanged Fulke?'' |
557 | ''How do you mean?'' |
557 | ''How early?'' |
557 | ''How much gold did you get? |
557 | ''How old did you think it was?'' |
557 | ''How think ye? |
557 | ''How would you like to be called"mortal"or"human being"all the time?'' |
557 | ''How''s it done?'' |
557 | ''How? |
557 | ''How? |
557 | ''I was thinking-- suppose we saved some of our porridge and put it in the attic for you? |
557 | ''I''m glad they''re gone, then; but what made the People of the Hills go away?'' |
557 | ''I''m sorry about the Leaves,''he said,''but it would never have done if you had gone home and told, would it?'' |
557 | ''I? |
557 | ''Is it just a Wall? |
557 | ''Is it?'' |
557 | ''Is the tale meet for children, think you?'' |
557 | ''It''s like the shadows talking, is n''t it?'' |
557 | ''Just then( you know how near the brutes creep when one is eating?) |
557 | ''Like Miss Blake tells us about?'' |
557 | ''May we see?'' |
557 | ''Neither then nor later?'' |
557 | ''No sorcery, Sir Richard?'' |
557 | ''Not afraid that those men yonder''--he jerked his head towards the incessant POP- POP of the guns from the lower woods--''will do you hurt?'' |
557 | ''Now, what Thing made those?'' |
557 | ''Or do they?'' |
557 | ''People burned in wicker baskets?'' |
557 | ''Pevensey? |
557 | ''Pirate?'' |
557 | ''Pirates do n''t build churches, do they?'' |
557 | ''Play about, like us?'' |
557 | ''Quo Caesar abiit celsus imperio? |
557 | ''Regnum? |
557 | ''Robin, how a''mischief''s name am I to tell these innocents what comes of sinful pride?'' |
557 | ''Round?'' |
557 | ''Said De Aquila, after jehan was gone down the stair:"Hugh, hast thou ever told my Gilbert thou canst read Latin hand- of- write?" |
557 | ''Said Thorkild of Borkum:"Do they mean we must fight for all this gear?" |
557 | ''So they have; but I told you that you should come and go and look and know, did n''t I? |
557 | ''South?'' |
557 | ''That? |
557 | ''The boy? |
557 | ''Then are n''t you most awfully old?'' |
557 | ''Then she''d be a Pett-- or a Whitgift, would she?'' |
557 | ''Then why was he on the Wall?'' |
557 | ''Then you did n''t do anything to his son?'' |
557 | ''There? |
557 | ''To here, d''you mean?'' |
557 | ''Us?'' |
557 | ''Was he angry?'' |
557 | ''Was it anything like this?'' |
557 | ''Was it bad?'' |
557 | ''Was it thirty or forty year back you broke my head at Peasmarsh Fair?'' |
557 | ''Was n''t it in your books?'' |
557 | ''Was n''t your woman a Whitgift, Ralph? |
557 | ''Was she pretty?'' |
557 | ''Was the man a Chinaman?'' |
557 | ''Was your nurse a-- a Romaness too?'' |
557 | ''Was yours a dangerous voyage?'' |
557 | ''We have n''t made him angry, have we?'' |
557 | ''Well, ai n''t that just me?'' |
557 | ''Well,''said Puck calmly,''what did you think of it? |
557 | ''Well?'' |
557 | ''Were n''t you afraid?'' |
557 | ''Were they angry with him?'' |
557 | ''Were you invisible?'' |
557 | ''What Devil''s in that belfry?'' |
557 | ''What Wall?'' |
557 | ''What are these? |
557 | ''What are you looking for?'' |
557 | ''What at?'' |
557 | ''What can town folk know of the nature of housen-- or land?'' |
557 | ''What could I say? |
557 | ''What did Weland say?'' |
557 | ''What did he do?'' |
557 | ''What did he mean by his General''s son?'' |
557 | ''What did he mean? |
557 | ''What did he promise, now?'' |
557 | ''What did it mean?'' |
557 | ''What did they make?'' |
557 | ''What did you do in summer?'' |
557 | ''What did you do with your gold?'' |
557 | ''What did you do?'' |
557 | ''What did you do?'' |
557 | ''What did you say?'' |
557 | ''What did you-- what did the fai-- Pharisees want?'' |
557 | ''What does the Faun mean,''he said, half aloud to himself,''by telling me that the Painted People have changed?'' |
557 | ''What for?'' |
557 | ''What had happened? |
557 | ''What happened to old Allo? |
557 | ''What is a tame Pict?'' |
557 | ''What sort of questions?'' |
557 | ''What terms?'' |
557 | ''What was she like?'' |
557 | ''What was the song you were singing just now?'' |
557 | ''What waters?'' |
557 | ''What''s a novice?'' |
557 | ''What''s taking seisin?'' |
557 | ''What''s that for-- Magic?'' |
557 | ''What''s that?'' |
557 | ''What? |
557 | ''What?'' |
557 | ''When I''ve seen these two young folk home, we''ll make a night of old days, Ralph, with passin''old tales-- eh? |
557 | ''When did this happen?'' |
557 | ''When the men of the Cohort I was to command came back unhelmeted from the cock- fight, their birds under their arms, and asked me who I was? |
557 | ''When?'' |
557 | ''Where Weland landed?'' |
557 | ''Where at?'' |
557 | ''Where did she come out of? |
557 | ''Where did you go? |
557 | ''Where''s Puck?'' |
557 | ''Which? |
557 | ''Who is it?'' |
557 | ''Who was he?'' |
557 | ''Who was he?'' |
557 | ''Who''s for my Little Lindens? |
557 | ''Why did Sir Andrew Barton help you?'' |
557 | ''Why did you laugh that horrid way?'' |
557 | ''Why would n''t he?'' |
557 | ''Why? |
557 | ''Why? |
557 | ''Why?'' |
557 | ''Will you be here when we come again?'' |
557 | ''Would that be a Act of Parliament like?'' |
557 | ''Would you believe it, that when that farmer woke and found his horse shod he rode away without one word of thanks? |
557 | ''Yet surely, surely they are taught to spit upon Jews?'' |
557 | ''You are not afraid?'' |
557 | ( Have I said he was little, and could not endure to be helped to his saddle?) |
557 | Ah, what is a Woman that you forsake her, And the hearth- fire and the home- acre, To go with the old grey Widow- maker? |
557 | An''what''s your news since all these years?'' |
557 | An''where might you live?'' |
557 | And I quaked, and I went... How''s yon, Robin?'' |
557 | And all the bullocks from Brightling here?" |
557 | And see you marks that show and fade, Like shadows on the Downs? |
557 | And see you, after rain, the trace Of mound and ditch and wall? |
557 | And what did Amal do?'' |
557 | And why? |
557 | Anderida?'' |
557 | Are n''t you afraid of wolves?'' |
557 | Are ye content, lads?" |
557 | Are you pirate- folk?'' |
557 | At this time of year? |
557 | Because his son was going to be killed?'' |
557 | But settin''that aside, d''ye believe or-- do ye?'' |
557 | But they''re sold to a Scotch pirate by your old friend--""''Where''s your proof?" |
557 | But what was the result? |
557 | But why are you chewing leaves at your time of life, daughter? |
557 | But-- ye knew this?'' |
557 | By the way, are you free, maiden?'' |
557 | D''ye do any o''this still?'' |
557 | Did Hugh die? |
557 | Did I ask Master Collins for his timber- tug to haul beams? |
557 | Did he promise me a set of iron cramps or ties for the roof? |
557 | Did he?'' |
557 | Did n''t Sir Richard Dalyngridge talk about it?'' |
557 | Did n''t he know it was Sir Richard''s old treasure?'' |
557 | Did n''t she ever say?'' |
557 | Did the Winged Hats ever come back? |
557 | Did you see the signing of the Law at Runnymede?'' |
557 | Did you sling that bullet?'' |
557 | Do I want that? |
557 | Do n''t they hunt wolves here?'' |
557 | Do n''t you know?'' |
557 | Do n''t you like it?'' |
557 | Do n''t you remember, Una?'' |
557 | Do ye believe or-- do ye?'' |
557 | Do you know them?'' |
557 | Do you know"Farewell, Rewards and Fairies"?'' |
557 | Do you remember, O Faun,''--he turned to Puck--''the little altar I built to the Sylvan Pan by the pine- forest beyond the brook?'' |
557 | Do you see what I meant?'' |
557 | Do you wonder that he learned quickly? |
557 | Does he tell how we were out all day riding the Marsh, and how I near perished in a quicksand, and coughed like a sick ewe for ten days after?" |
557 | Does it become me, Hal?" |
557 | Does that comfort thee, Fulke?" |
557 | Eh, Jehan? |
557 | Eh, why not? |
557 | Eh?" |
557 | For fun?'' |
557 | Has he puzzled you much, Una?'' |
557 | Have you never heard of a Father''s right over his children? |
557 | He said presently to me:"If I gave you the old Province of Valentia to govern, could you keep the Picts contented till I won Gaul? |
557 | He said:"What now?" |
557 | He stopped, hollowed one hand round his ear, and, with a wicked twinkle in his eye, went on:''What, a play toward? |
557 | He watched us passing buckets from the pond, and at last he said to me:"Who are you?" |
557 | How can I keep my young men from listening to the Winged Hats-- in winter especially, when we are hungry? |
557 | How can a man be wise if he hate? |
557 | How could you ever do it?'' |
557 | How d''you call them?'' |
557 | How did we get home that night? |
557 | How do you do, sir?'' |
557 | How many cattle, think you, would the Bishop of Tours give for that tale? |
557 | How should the foolish Kings know that while they fight and steal and kill?'' |
557 | How think ye?" |
557 | How?'' |
557 | I did not see them( I was sick after the fight), but Witta told me, and, lo, ye know it also? |
557 | I do n''t know as you''ve ever heard say Pharisees are like chickens?'' |
557 | I said, therefore, to Elias of Bury, a great one among our people:"Why do our people lend any more to the Kings that oppress us?" |
557 | I was so astonished that I jumped out and said:"What on Human Earth are you doing here, Weland?"'' |
557 | I-- I did n''t know you were a-- a-- What are you?'' |
557 | I?" |
557 | If Fulke is given my Pevensey, which is England''s gate, what will he do with it? |
557 | If one told thee all was betrayed, what wouldst thou do?" |
557 | Is it true, Hugh?" |
557 | Is n''t it splendid?'' |
557 | Is there no sorcery left in the world?'' |
557 | Laugh and ride over him?'' |
557 | Left he no word?" |
557 | Like the one round the kitchen- garden?'' |
557 | Now see you why your pokings and pryings have raised the Devil in Sussex? |
557 | Oh, what is it?" |
557 | Or the Monks of Blois? |
557 | Or thy brother? |
557 | Over the hill, you mean?'' |
557 | Said De Aquila, at the window of our chamber:"How did I tell you? |
557 | See you our little mill that clacks, So busy by the brook? |
557 | See you our pastures wide and lone, Where the red oxen browse? |
557 | See you our stilly woods of oak, And the dread ditch beside? |
557 | See you the windy levels spread About the gates of Rye? |
557 | Shall I swear it?" |
557 | Sir Richard bowed a little and went on:"''Gold horseshoes on black?" |
557 | Suppose we get sunstroke, or a fever?" |
557 | Swimmin''?'' |
557 | Than maids were wo nt to do, Yet who of late for cleanliness Finds sixpence in her shoe?'' |
557 | The Red King was dead-- slain( ye remember?) |
557 | The stone one with the line from Xenophon?'' |
557 | Then he looked me up and down, and said:"Hungry again? |
557 | There''s more under my hat besides hair?'' |
557 | To kill''em?'' |
557 | Tom Shoesmith?'' |
557 | Vel Dives splendidus totus in prandio? |
557 | Vines? |
557 | Was it not so, Faun?'' |
557 | Was it sorcery?'' |
557 | We shall be slaves just the same? |
557 | Were our Devils only nest- building apes? |
557 | What Games?'' |
557 | What a murrain call had I, they said, to mell with old St Barnabas''? |
557 | What are you laughin''at? |
557 | What did I tell thee when I rode away, boy?" |
557 | What did his lord do? |
557 | What did you do?'' |
557 | What do I know of Xenophon? |
557 | What does he add at the bottom of the roll? |
557 | What else could you expect?'' |
557 | What is the price of my blood?" |
557 | What is your Turkis?'' |
557 | What shall we do to him, Sir Hugh?" |
557 | What were my Devils, then?'' |
557 | What will she say to Sir Richard? |
557 | What''s he talking to old Hobden about?'' |
557 | What''s your complaint? |
557 | What''s your say?'' |
557 | When did they torture him?'' |
557 | When didst thou come over to the Duke? |
557 | When do we hang Gilbert?" |
557 | When our Duke came out of Normandy to take his England, great knights( have ye heard?) |
557 | Where are the Captains of the Wall?" |
557 | Where did Gilbert hide that writing? |
557 | Where did he get through?'' |
557 | Where from?'' |
557 | Where''ve you been?'' |
557 | Wherefore does it point South-- or North?'' |
557 | Which am I to follow?" |
557 | Who a- plague has another key, then?" |
557 | Who am I to meddle with things too high for me? |
557 | Who will be the first to come through thereby? |
557 | Who would stop them-- Fulke?" |
557 | Why dost thou stay, and turn away? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not? |
557 | Why not?'' |
557 | Why not?'' |
557 | Why not?'' |
557 | Why should I care for such things, my business being to reach my station? |
557 | Wo n''t you, Puck?'' |
557 | Ye see?'' |
557 | Yet how could I? |
557 | You meant that King John might have spent it on that?'' |
557 | You play on my side?" |
557 | You''d think nothin''easier than to walk eend- on acrost her? |
557 | You''ve seen how flat she is-- the Marsh? |
557 | You, Tom? |
557 | said De Aquila, rubbing his nose,"to whom did he say that?" |
557 | said Puck;''or"son of Adam"or"daughter of Eve"?'' |
557 | said the farmer-- he was in a furious temper because I was walking the old horse in circles all this time--"What, you young jackanapes?" |
557 | says Sebastian, and raps with his cow- tail on the table,"whose guns are they, then?" |
20898 | ''Fatso'', eh? |
20898 | ''No trouble,''it says here in fine print? 20898 ... the matter? |
20898 | A few weeks against twenty- five years... what do you think of his time estimate, Deg my dear? |
20898 | Ace,_ Darling_? |
20898 | Afraid of water? |
20898 | Alive? |
20898 | All right... but suppose we do find somebody who out- Gunthers us? |
20898 | All the way down? |
20898 | Am I to ignore the fact that you are one of the best telekineticists living? |
20898 | And I suppose it''s you that cartoonist what''s- his- name is using as a model for''Timorous Timmy''? |
20898 | And all the way up? |
20898 | And are you interested enough to find out whose business it would be, and follow through on it? |
20898 | And cause a revolution? |
20898 | And have you scream to high heaven that I opened it? 20898 And make it stick? |
20898 | And this? |
20898 | And you wo n''t... wo n''t interfere? |
20898 | And you''ll-- personally-- go on my hour with it? |
20898 | Anything I can do, I''ve got to do... well, shall we go? |
20898 | Anything else on the agenda, Clee? |
20898 | Are even you actually stupid enough to try to lie with your mind? 20898 Are you asking me or telling me?" |
20898 | Are you both fully certain that you want the full treatment? |
20898 | Are you crazy, Garlock? |
20898 | Are you getting anywhere, Belle? 20898 Are you going to ask me to pair with you, Clee?" |
20898 | Are you smart enough to understand that? |
20898 | Assume I tried to work on you-- assume I succeeded-- what would you be? 20898 Belle, can you blast? |
20898 | Belle? |
20898 | Besides, do you think I''d miss a chance to be the first person-- and just a girl, too-- of a whole world to see other planets of other suns? 20898 Better? |
20898 | Brains? 20898 Bundy, this is Garlock....""So what am I supposed to do-- burst into tears of joy?" |
20898 | But I thought you were covering Miss Montandon? |
20898 | But I wonder... are you sure we can get away with it? |
20898 | But do n''t the boys on the ground need some help? |
20898 | But do you know what I did? |
20898 | But do you know what you''ve done, Lola? |
20898 | But how could a man in such a big job_ possibly_ get away with such foul stuff as that? |
20898 | But no crew at_ all_? |
20898 | But this thought,''Dilipic''? |
20898 | But we''re going to need a lot of money, and we''re just about broke, are n''t we? |
20898 | But what could_ possibly_ make as good a thesis as those extra- galactic tapes? |
20898 | But what_ are_ they? |
20898 | But why do you want to mix into something that''s none of your business? |
20898 | But would n''t transportation of material and so on present problems? |
20898 | But you said you_ never_ went screens down with a woman? |
20898 | But... no hard feelings, Jim? 20898 But_ can_ you? |
20898 | But_ worlds_ do n''t die, surely? |
20898 | Ca n''t you conceive of me flipping a coin honestly? |
20898 | Ca n''t you straighten people out? |
20898 | Can that actually be done? |
20898 | Can you bomb? |
20898 | Can you do anything with it, Clee? |
20898 | Can you, after what you just told them? |
20898 | Can_ you_ hit Andromeda? |
20898 | Cannibals? 20898 Chancellor Ferber, are you completely out of your mind? |
20898 | Clee, do you read me? |
20898 | Commander Knahr, can you hop over here a minute? 20898 Could be-- but how about intergalactic hops?" |
20898 | Could you do it, whatever it was, to me? |
20898 | D''you think I''d stand for_ that_? |
20898 | Darling? 20898 Did any of you happen to notice whether they know anything about artificial insemination?" |
20898 | Did n''t it make you mad? 20898 Did you expect to cover a distance it takes light thousands of years to cross? |
20898 | Do n''t you_ see_, you''ve done enough? 20898 Do they always... kill all the people?" |
20898 | Do you know that we''ve got two of the finest men that ever lived? |
20898 | Do you mean they''ll attack us on sight? |
20898 | Do you so- called''Guardians of Humanity''care at all about the humanity you''re supposed to be protecting? |
20898 | Do you suppose, Clee,Belle nibbled at her lower lip,"that we''re getting off on the wrong foot with uniforms and admirals and things? |
20898 | Do you think I''d_ let_ her work on me? |
20898 | Do you think she would n''t? |
20898 | Do you want a bit of knowledge_ that_ badly, Belle? |
20898 | Do you want me to give him the whole works? |
20898 | Do you want to put out that kind of stuff around here? |
20898 | Do you want us to help you pick up the other Primes? |
20898 | Do you? 20898 Eat? |
20898 | Everything on the beam? |
20898 | Excuse me for changing the subject,Lola put in, plaintively,"but when, if ever, do we eat? |
20898 | Fighting? 20898 Find out anything?" |
20898 | Following me? |
20898 | Food? 20898 Forty- two, twenty, forty?" |
20898 | Forward? 20898 From now on, my friend, who is in the saddle? |
20898 | From your standpoint, would that be bad? |
20898 | Has n''t it got through your four- inch- thick skull into your idiot''s brain yet that I''m in a hurry? 20898 Have you had your coffee?" |
20898 | Have you lost your mind? |
20898 | Have you three lost your minds? |
20898 | High- handed? 20898 How about cutting out this checking entirely, Clee?" |
20898 | How about cutting the gab and getting some work done? |
20898 | How about screens down enough to lep, boss? |
20898 | How about this? |
20898 | How about transportation? 20898 How about wearing some kind of half- way- comfortable shoes instead of those slippers?" |
20898 | How can a thing like this_ possibly_ work? |
20898 | How come? |
20898 | How could you possibly lay off? 20898 How do you know whether I''m a virgin or not? |
20898 | How do you like_ them_ tid- bits, Clee? |
20898 | How do you want to handle it? |
20898 | How far along are they? |
20898 | How far did we miss target, Jim? |
20898 | How heavy shots, Clee? |
20898 | How long does it take to learn this bombing business, Jim? |
20898 | How much of that is hindsight, Jim? 20898 How much of this stuff, if any, can I publish? |
20898 | How much will this cost me, Fatso? |
20898 | How much would that be per mile? |
20898 | How would you test it? |
20898 | How''s that for a masterly job of calibration? |
20898 | Huh? 20898 Huh? |
20898 | Huh? 20898 Huh? |
20898 | Huh? 20898 Huh? |
20898 | Huh? 20898 Huh? |
20898 | Huh? 20898 Huh?" |
20898 | I ca n''t? |
20898 | I guess you''re right... well, shall we go out and insult our touchy young friend Semolo? 20898 I hate to shatter such wonderful dreams-- or do I? |
20898 | I have your permission, then, to give Fao a little discipline when she starts rocking the boat? |
20898 | I trust that this conversation is being recorded? |
20898 | I would enjoy it too much, and you''d... well, you would n''t...."Huh? |
20898 | I would n''t? |
20898 | I''m still''ace''after what I just said? 20898 If I tell her, this deep, to play ball or else, do you think she''d need two treatments?" |
20898 | In other words, do we or do we not attain a maximum? 20898 In spite of confession being supposed to be good for the soul, I do n''t like to admit that we''ve put gravel in the gear- box-- do you, Belle?" |
20898 | Intelligence all the way? |
20898 | Invasion of privacy? 20898 Is that it?" |
20898 | Is that nice, you back- alley tomcat? |
20898 | Is there any objection, Mr. Garlock, to Miss Flurnoy transmitting information of this meeting and of this ship to our base? |
20898 | It was n''t practical, eh? |
20898 | It would have to-- it covers the whole macrocosmic universe, does n''t it? |
20898 | Jim, what are the Tellurian figures for exactly five hundred miles up? |
20898 | Jim,he said, sharply,"have you been consciously aware of Belle''s manipulation?" |
20898 | Just how would you go about ignoring Prime Operator Belle Bellamy? |
20898 | Just too perfectly marvelous for_ anything_? |
20898 | Just why, Captain Garlock, are you insisting on oral communication, when lepping is so much faster and better? 20898 Just_ what_ are you two talking about? |
20898 | Lola, do you check me that this planet is named Hodell, that it is populated by creatures exactly like us? 20898 Lola?" |
20898 | May I ask a couple of questions? |
20898 | May I say a few words? |
20898 | Maybe I''m dumb,Garlock broke in,"but just what are you going to use for money to get started?" |
20898 | Miss Flurnoy, have they cleared the air over Pylon Six? |
20898 | N. G."And this one? |
20898 | Nerve? 20898 No trouble there....""What?" |
20898 | No? 20898 No? |
20898 | No? 20898 Not Dilipic?" |
20898 | Not much to choose between, I''d say...''port me a tenth- piece, Clee? 20898 Of course? |
20898 | Oh, I did n''t mean physically...."Through my blocks? 20898 Oh, I had n''t studied it... a pellet- projector....""_ Pellet!_ Do you call a four- seventy- five slug a pellet?" |
20898 | Oh, I''m still''ace''? 20898 Oh, Miss Bellamy, too? |
20898 | Oh, Miss Experience? 20898 Oh, did n''t you know? |
20898 | Oh, may I go with you to your ship, sir, to take just a little look at it? |
20898 | Oh, no? |
20898 | Oh, you Arpalones do n''t die with your worlds, then? |
20898 | Oh, you did n''t know? 20898 Oh, you have seen them? |
20898 | Oh-- one of_ those_ things? 20898 Oh? |
20898 | Oh? 20898 Oh? |
20898 | Oh? 20898 Oh? |
20898 | Oh? |
20898 | Oh? |
20898 | Operators, Primes, and the practically non- existent laws pertaining to their... what? 20898 Or lep it, so we two innocent bystanders can understand it?" |
20898 | Orange- yellow? 20898 Ordinary? |
20898 | People, yes-- but worlds? |
20898 | Plain? |
20898 | Please excuse this intrusion, Admiral-- or should it be plural? 20898 Power failure_ already_?" |
20898 | Prime- proof? 20898 Probably Deg and I should do the same thing?" |
20898 | Ready to go, Jim? |
20898 | Ready, Clee? |
20898 | Rehab? |
20898 | Remember what I said about this drive not being conditioned to anything? 20898 Rough? |
20898 | Run a search pattern first? |
20898 | Scared? |
20898 | Screen? |
20898 | See? 20898 See?" |
20898 | Shall Brownie and I set our blocks? |
20898 | Shall we go screens half- down, Alsyne, and cry in each other''s beer? |
20898 | Shall we go? |
20898 | Shot? |
20898 | So that you could exploit other planets? 20898 So why do n''t you, Fao and Deggi, put Jim in charge of construction?" |
20898 | So will you, Junior, believe me.... Ready, all? 20898 So you and I are merely two red cells in the bloodstream of a super- dooper- galactic super- monster? |
20898 | So_ I''m_ in it, too? 20898 So_ that''s_ what an eidetic memory is? |
20898 | Stay here, sir? 20898 Such as?" |
20898 | Suppose that, under such conditions, we refuse to attend the meeting? |
20898 | Suppose we blast you and your jets out of the air and land anyway? |
20898 | Surely not behind the Curtains? 20898 Talk about_ power!_ And_ speed!_ To get all that stuff and''port up here in the millisecond or so we had the screens open? |
20898 | Thank you, sir... but what limits? 20898 That I''m being coerced? |
20898 | The Arpales? 20898 The_ real_ story, I mean?" |
20898 | Then how about Jim? |
20898 | Then it is n''t that you do n''t want to, but you_ ca n''t_? |
20898 | Then why do n''t you do it right now? |
20898 | Think you can deliver on that, Clee? |
20898 | Two hundred years in seventy- eight seconds? 20898 Um... m... m. What do you think?" |
20898 | Well, Garlock, perhaps_ you_ will give us some screens- down facts? |
20898 | Well, little Miss Weisenheimer,Garlock smiled quizzically at Belle,"You grabbed the ball-- what are you going to do with it?" |
20898 | Well, what_ are_ you going to do? |
20898 | Well, why did n''t I think of it myself, ten years ago? |
20898 | Well,_ what_ do you think of_ that_? |
20898 | Well? |
20898 | What are these Ozobes? |
20898 | What are you gunners supposed to be doing here? |
20898 | What are you talking about, Chief? |
20898 | What are you thinking about at the moment? |
20898 | What at? 20898 What d''you suppose_ that_ means?" |
20898 | What did it feel like, Belle? |
20898 | What difference does that make? 20898 What difference would it make, anyway?" |
20898 | What do we do, boss? |
20898 | What do you mean by that? |
20898 | What do you mean by_ that_ crack? |
20898 | What do you mean,''ridiculous''? |
20898 | What do you think, Thaker? |
20898 | What do you think, sir? |
20898 | What do you want to do first? |
20898 | What do_ you_ think? |
20898 | What good does it do? 20898 What happened, Clee?" |
20898 | What in hell''s name are you bothering_ me_ with_ that_ stuff for? 20898 What points?" |
20898 | What the hell are you trying to prove? 20898 What the hell kind of show is_ that_ to put on?" |
20898 | What with? 20898 What would a warm- blood be doing out in space? |
20898 | What''s the story, Jerry? |
20898 | What, actually, have you done? 20898 What? |
20898 | What? |
20898 | Where are you going to sit down, Jim? 20898 Where are you?" |
20898 | Where do we draw the line between humanoid and non- human? |
20898 | Where do we fit in? |
20898 | Where do you want us to sit, and do we strap down? |
20898 | Where is this Clamer? |
20898 | Where were they? |
20898 | Where? 20898 Where?" |
20898 | Where? |
20898 | Which one of the many? |
20898 | While landing here is forbidden-- top secret, you know-- would my refusal mean much to you? |
20898 | Who cares anything about the rock and dirt of a_ planet_? 20898 Who do you think you''re kidding, boss? |
20898 | Who is your superior officer? |
20898 | Who, me? 20898 Why did n''t I think of that coffee business a couple of years ago?" |
20898 | Why do n''t you talk sense, instead of such yak- yak? |
20898 | Why do women have to go off the deep end on clothes? |
20898 | Why from me? |
20898 | Why have n''t you reported in? |
20898 | Why not let this one drop right here, Belle? 20898 Why not? |
20898 | Why not? |
20898 | Why not? |
20898 | Why not? |
20898 | Why not? |
20898 | Why should we be fussy about their street- cleaning department? 20898 Why the sob- and- moan routine, Clee, from a guy who''s going to be monarch of all he surveys?" |
20898 | Why waste energy trying to crack a Prime''s shield? 20898 Why words, sweetheart? |
20898 | Why, General Cardeen? |
20898 | Why? 20898 Why?" |
20898 | With suspension or expulsion from the Society the consequences? 20898 With your name? |
20898 | Without hiring me first? 20898 World?" |
20898 | Would n''t take as much as a kiloton equivalent, would it? |
20898 | Would you like to be assigned to Mr. Garlock for the duration of his stay on Margonia? |
20898 | Would you, Jim? |
20898 | Yeah? |
20898 | Yes, I was pushing with all my might,came from the three listeners, and James went on:"Are you saying the damn thing''s_ alive_?" |
20898 | Yes, sir? |
20898 | Yes, sir? |
20898 | Yes? 20898 You admit that you''re using force?" |
20898 | You are hereby promoted to be Head of the...."Oh, yeah? |
20898 | You are transmitting this precisely, Miss Flurnoy? |
20898 | You are willing, then, to fight side by side with us Arpalones against the enemies of humanity? 20898 You do n''t think we''ll ever get back, do you, Clee?" |
20898 | You have the hospital room ready?... 20898 You knocked hell out of yourself, did n''t you?" |
20898 | You know what that bleached- blonde tried to do? 20898 You know, I might take you up on that? |
20898 | You know, of course, of the trip we took yesterday? |
20898 | You mean you can_ restore_ planets so badly ruined that all the people die? |
20898 | You unprincipled, lascivious, lecherous_ Hitler!_ Have you got the unmitigated gall to take_ me_ for a floozie? 20898 You''d be just as well pleased if I did n''t?" |
20898 | You''ll_ What?_Ferber screamed. |
20898 | You''re afraid of me, Lola? |
20898 | You''re not? |
20898 | You''ve_ seen_ one? 20898 You, personally, in the_ Pleiades_?" |
20898 | You... you... Why, I was never so insulted...."Insulted? 20898 You_ are_ a Prime Operator, are n''t you?" |
20898 | You_ have_ been thinking, have n''t you? 20898 Your call could come from any of the other solar systems in this neighborhood, then?" |
20898 | _ Ace_, darling? |
20898 | _ Brought?_"Yeah. 20898 _ Hungry?_ Look!" |
20898 | _ That''s_ why you knew what I was thinking about, even though I tight- beamed the thought and my screens were tight? |
20898 | _ Until_ we get back to Tellus there will be no Gunthering aboard this ship...."_ What?_Belle broke in again. |
20898 | _ What?_ I_ will_ not! 20898 _ What?_""Exactly. |
20898 | _ What_ a logic-- excuse me, skip it...."Oh, you really_ meant_ it when you said you were n''t going to fight with me any more? |
20898 | _ What_ do you think about_ that_? |
20898 | _ What_? |
20898 | _ Why-- Belle-- Bellamy!_"_ What_ goes_ on_ here? |
20898 | _ Would_ you, then, if I asked you to? |
20898 | _ You''re fired!_"_ You_ fire_ me_? |
20898 | _ You_ are complimenting_ me_? |
20898 | ***"Got a minute, Gene?" |
20898 | ***"How long do disease germs live in a human body after they''ve killed it?" |
20898 | ***"Will you please stop talking Sanskrit?" |
20898 | ***"Yeah? |
20898 | A couple of shots in the arm?" |
20898 | A couple of weeks? |
20898 | A good- night kiss, Clee, darling? |
20898 | A little knock like that? |
20898 | A_ Prime''s_ blocks? |
20898 | All that astronomy and anthropology that nobody ever even dreamed of before? |
20898 | And I have n''t started yet?" |
20898 | And James rammed home the red button that would send them-- all four wondered--_where_? |
20898 | And after breakfast, in the Main--"About three weeks, Jim, you think?" |
20898 | And do I transmit to and/or record for you, sir?" |
20898 | And how about our own galaxy, the most important piece of all? |
20898 | And if so,_ how_?" |
20898 | And in Garlock''s room that night, getting ready for bed, Belle asked suddenly,"Clee, what in hell did you do to Fao Talaho?" |
20898 | And is there anything else we have to cover now?" |
20898 | And may we keep this box? |
20898 | And nothing but firecrackers-- we''re going down, are n''t we?" |
20898 | And put me on a tape for willful inurbanity? |
20898 | And that the falling is altogether too apt to be the other way?" |
20898 | And visiting restrictions and so on? |
20898 | And why? |
20898 | And with her guard down clear to the floor? |
20898 | And you do n''t believe, Clee, that my thesis had anything to do with my holding out at first?" |
20898 | And you have a very high regard for your virginity, too, do n''t you?" |
20898 | And you tell_ me_ not to be ridiculous?" |
20898 | Any connection?" |
20898 | Any ideas?" |
20898 | Any objections?" |
20898 | Any suggestions, anybody? |
20898 | Anyway, I''d rather kill him myself than wish the job off onto-- you do n''t_ like_ killing, do you?" |
20898 | Apparent weight grew less and less, until:"This is about enough for you, Miss Flurnoy?" |
20898 | Are there any other living beings aboard with you?" |
20898 | Are we finally ready to go down and get to work?" |
20898 | Are you any good at mind- bombing?" |
20898 | Are you listening, Bellamy?" |
20898 | Are you lying in your teeth or are you dumb enough to believe it yourself?" |
20898 | Are you or are n''t you?" |
20898 | Are you ready, Belle, to abandon the project, find an uninhabited Tellurian world, and begin to populate it?" |
20898 | Are you trying to take me for a ride on_ that_ old sawhorse?" |
20898 | Arpalones?" |
20898 | As a matter of information, Belle, why did you take Jim in the first place?" |
20898 | As far as I know, not even a rough estimate has ever been made-- has there, Clee?" |
20898 | As of right now, are we under the Code or not?" |
20898 | Ask me again sometime; say in about a month?" |
20898 | Avengord?" |
20898 | Back to Tellus, then?" |
20898 | Back to the Main?" |
20898 | Belle, what were you briefed for?" |
20898 | Belle_ Bellamy_? |
20898 | Besides astronomy, which is all yours, what do we need most?" |
20898 | Besides, that''s your line, is n''t it?" |
20898 | Besides....""What thesis?" |
20898 | Better we eat, huh? |
20898 | Breakfast over and out in the Main:"But when a man''s disposition is ugly all the time, how can you tell the difference?" |
20898 | Brownie? |
20898 | But anyway, unless... unless you find another Prime as strong as Clee is-- and I do n''t really think there are any, do you?" |
20898 | But do you mean to actually say I can now completely block you or any other Prime out?" |
20898 | But do you think Belle would actually peek?" |
20898 | But honestly, Clee-- seriously, screens- down honestly-- can you see any possible future in it?" |
20898 | But how about this? |
20898 | But how about you? |
20898 | But how come we got off on_ this_ subject, I wonder? |
20898 | But how in all hell can Jim and I refuse to breed them up without dealing out the deadliest insult they know?" |
20898 | But if that''s actually your picture of Brownie-- and you''re no part of a liar-- just what kind of a woman could you love? |
20898 | But in love? |
20898 | But just how, Clee-- if he''s as smart as you say he is-- do you think you can make him fire you?" |
20898 | But just out of curiosity, are you two pairing, or not?" |
20898 | But low or dirty or coarse or lewd, Clee? |
20898 | But speaking of holding hands, would it help if we paired again?" |
20898 | But such immense distances, sir... what can you possibly be using for a space- drive?" |
20898 | But these creatures, naked and unarmed on the ground? |
20898 | But think you can stand it, Belle, to wear more than twelve square inches of clothes?" |
20898 | But what can I_ do_ about it, Clee?" |
20898 | But what has an empty stomach got to do with the case?" |
20898 | But who else are you going to marry? |
20898 | But why? |
20898 | Ca n''t you win?" |
20898 | Can we--_dare_ we-- plant such genes where none have ever been known before?" |
20898 | Can you tell me anything about it?" |
20898 | Check, Belle?" |
20898 | Check, Clee?" |
20898 | Check, Clee?" |
20898 | Check?" |
20898 | Check?" |
20898 | Check?" |
20898 | Check?" |
20898 | Check?" |
20898 | Check?" |
20898 | Clear so far?" |
20898 | Clee, are n''t you sorry you got mad and blew your top and wanted to pick up your marbles and go home? |
20898 | Could you do anything with that, Jerry?" |
20898 | Definitely?" |
20898 | Deggi and Fao? |
20898 | Did n''t it sock you, too, Belle?" |
20898 | Did n''t you know these four private rooms are solid? |
20898 | Did you do any better?" |
20898 | Did you eat your candy bar?" |
20898 | Did you ever see a better- matched couple? |
20898 | Did, or did not, this quiet, unannounced closing smell ever- so- slightly of cheese? |
20898 | Do I understand correctly your thought that your race is_ Homo Sapiens_, the same as ours?" |
20898 | Do I? |
20898 | Do n''t I?" |
20898 | Do n''t you ever lep?" |
20898 | Do n''t you know what the thought''incompatible''means?" |
20898 | Do n''t you see that?" |
20898 | Do n''t you think I could do a good enough job?" |
20898 | Do we_ have_ to wait until that confounded James boy gets back from wherever it was he went?" |
20898 | Do you know you''re the only man I ever met that I could n''t make fall for me like a rock falling down a cliff? |
20898 | Do you think she could actually have de- handed those men? |
20898 | Do you think they''ve got spines stiff enough for the job?" |
20898 | Do you think we wo n''t get it?" |
20898 | Do you want in on it?" |
20898 | Do you want to run some more tests, to see which of us is the intergalactic transporter?" |
20898 | Do you, really?" |
20898 | Do you?" |
20898 | Does that make sense?" |
20898 | Does that make you feel better?" |
20898 | Even if we find a similarity, what could we do about it? |
20898 | Even if you_ would_--and I''m just beginning to realize how big a man you really are-- can that kind of stuff be taught? |
20898 | Even that other thing-- brotherly love? |
20898 | Everyone sitting down? |
20898 | Explain, please? |
20898 | Fair enough?" |
20898 | Fair enough?" |
20898 | Fair enough?" |
20898 | First, are you absolutely sure that our refusal-- Belle''s and mine, I mean-- to breed down will be valid with them?" |
20898 | First, to work on me in bed....""See?" |
20898 | For deliberate intersexual invasion of privacy?" |
20898 | For instance, could Garlock be forced to do whatever it is that he does? |
20898 | For instance, what would your computer do with the figures you shot at me the day we started out? |
20898 | For what?" |
20898 | Full formal, screens down and recorded?" |
20898 | Genius? |
20898 | Getting anywhere?" |
20898 | Guardians? |
20898 | Had n''t you better?" |
20898 | Have I made myself clear?" |
20898 | Have any of you thought of any improvement on Lola''s monogamous society?" |
20898 | Have n''t you read your house- tape yet?" |
20898 | Have you figured out a way to break it?" |
20898 | Have you got a counter?" |
20898 | Have you got_ that_ figured out yet?" |
20898 | Have you read any of my papers?" |
20898 | Have you studied paraphysics?" |
20898 | Have you, Clee?" |
20898 | He could n''t, very well, because after you''re married, it would....""Did the big lug tell you I was going to marry him?" |
20898 | Here''s the first one-- what do you read?" |
20898 | Hm- h- h- nh?" |
20898 | How about calling it the''Galactic Service''? |
20898 | How about cutting out this cat- and- dog act and getting some work done?" |
20898 | How about it, Belle?" |
20898 | How about landing conventions? |
20898 | How about you, Clee?" |
20898 | How are you coming with your calculations?" |
20898 | How come you were smart enough to get the answer so quick, Brownie?" |
20898 | How come?" |
20898 | How could a Two-- a high Two, at that-- be working as an usher? |
20898 | How could you_ possibly_ give a head of hair a static charge of fifty or a hundred kilovolts and not have it leak off?" |
20898 | How did the visitors like Hodell? |
20898 | How did you repeal the Law of Conservation?" |
20898 | How do you like_ them_ parsnips, Your Royal Fatness?" |
20898 | How do you like_ them_ potatoes, Buster?" |
20898 | How do you two stand?" |
20898 | How do you want it?" |
20898 | How do you, a scientist, psionicist, and scholar, keep in such hard shape as that?" |
20898 | How does it look?" |
20898 | How does it work?" |
20898 | How does this kind of stuff fit into that theory you''re not admitting is a theory?" |
20898 | How does_ that_ fit into your theory?" |
20898 | How long will it take to organize? |
20898 | How long will it take you, Belle, to materialize those uniforms?" |
20898 | How many red cells are there in your blood stream?" |
20898 | How many samples do you want?" |
20898 | How much will you see after I''ve cut one wire?" |
20898 | How official do you want it? |
20898 | How sure are you of that?" |
20898 | How would you go about making first contact?" |
20898 | How would you go about trying it?" |
20898 | How''re you coming, Belle?" |
20898 | How? |
20898 | How?" |
20898 | How_ dare_ you try to cut Chancellor Ferber off?" |
20898 | I do n''t like that, but we do need the money... but we can have her for this coming week?" |
20898 | I do n''t want to get sloppy but....""Want to lep it?" |
20898 | I mean, could you if you wanted to?" |
20898 | I mean, did he ever... well, sort of knock you around?" |
20898 | I thought there were four of you?" |
20898 | I trust that you, Governor Atterlin, will be kind enough to spread word of our physical shortcomings, and so spare us further embarrassment?" |
20898 | If I can knock''em too groggy to think, will you carry on and keep''em that way?" |
20898 | If a diet is wholesome, nutritious, well- balanced, and tasty, what shred of difference can it_ possibly_ make what its ingredients once were?" |
20898 | If any?" |
20898 | If it''s anybody''s business except your own?" |
20898 | If the foregoing were true, what would_ you_ do, Junior?" |
20898 | If we could visit your Tellus, perhaps...?" |
20898 | If you tried to''port yourself without any idea of where you wanted to go, where do you think you''d land?" |
20898 | In sync?" |
20898 | Insisted on payment for every nut, wire, and service? |
20898 | Is all the Xenology as cockeyed as I''m afraid it must be?" |
20898 | Is it actually loose, or are we getting up into concepts that no human mind can grasp? |
20898 | Is that clear?" |
20898 | Is there a jump number, N, at which the probability is one- half that we land nearer Tellus instead of farther away? |
20898 | It''ll be more productive to analyze the beams the Arpalones are using to break them up, do n''t you think?" |
20898 | It''s the truth, is n''t it?" |
20898 | Jim and Brownie?" |
20898 | Jim?" |
20898 | Just one-- and just a little one, at that?" |
20898 | Labor? |
20898 | Let''s get to work, shall we?" |
20898 | Let''s get to work, shall we?" |
20898 | Let''s try Semolo, on Lizoria, shall we?" |
20898 | Lola?" |
20898 | Lola?" |
20898 | Marriage, declarations, registration, and everything? |
20898 | May I borrow a''talker''like Miss Flurnoy for a few days? |
20898 | May I meet your Secret Service Chief, please?" |
20898 | Miss Flurnoy?" |
20898 | Miss Mitala, do you want to listen or shall we drive it into you, too?" |
20898 | Miss Montandon? |
20898 | Missile launching stations and missile storage? |
20898 | More feminine? |
20898 | More subdued? |
20898 | More than one way? |
20898 | More... more adult? |
20898 | My God, Clee, can_ you_ do_ that_?" |
20898 | Need me?" |
20898 | No bosses or anything?" |
20898 | No reservations? |
20898 | No teleportation?" |
20898 | No, he did n''t_ know_ what would hatch out-- he''d never let one live that long, but what the hell else_ could_ hatch except Ozobes? |
20898 | Not from this part of the galaxy, certainly... could it be that intergalactic travel is actually possible? |
20898 | Not ordinary Gunther blocks?" |
20898 | Oh, is n''t it_ wonderful_?" |
20898 | Oh...."Garlock was taken slightly aback, but went on quickly,"What do you think of your opposite number, Belle?" |
20898 | Okay; how many women could live with me for a year without going crazy?" |
20898 | Okay? |
20898 | On the other hand, if Ferber offered Belle Bellamy five million credits a year to''work''for SSE, is there anything we could do about it?" |
20898 | On the third hand....""Three hands, Clee? |
20898 | One of their moons?" |
20898 | Or any one of the four, to say nothing of them all? |
20898 | Or can you, really?" |
20898 | Or did that belief weaken a bit when we met Baver 14WD27?" |
20898 | Or do I? |
20898 | Or say, if you wake up first, why not punch me and we''ll have breakfast together?" |
20898 | Out of the dumps?" |
20898 | Over Margon Base?" |
20898 | Over here, see? |
20898 | Pure egg- head... pure? |
20898 | Question: should this authority be political?" |
20898 | Read him?" |
20898 | Ready? |
20898 | Right? |
20898 | Right?" |
20898 | Right?" |
20898 | Right?" |
20898 | Screens down?" |
20898 | Second question: if there is any possible way for him to get there, can he be made to stay away?" |
20898 | See? |
20898 | Seventy planets enough?" |
20898 | Shall I bomb''em out?" |
20898 | Shall I bring it here, or to a bank in the city?" |
20898 | Shall I come in and try it?" |
20898 | Shall I drop the linkage? |
20898 | Shall I take her down now or do you want to check in from here first?" |
20898 | Shall I teleport you aboard?" |
20898 | Shall we go eat?" |
20898 | Shall we go out?" |
20898 | Shall we strap down and hang onto our teeth?" |
20898 | She looks, acts, talks, and thinks like a_ virgin_.... Well, if that''s all, she is n''t any-- or is she? |
20898 | She seemed-- quieter? |
20898 | She told you, I suppose, when explaining a certain fact, that I told her she was n''t my type?" |
20898 | Since I am always in tune with the field....""What does_ that_ mean?" |
20898 | Skill? |
20898 | So that''s it?" |
20898 | So what''s the answer?" |
20898 | Softer? |
20898 | Spread it on me now, huh?" |
20898 | Suppose we do n''t find anything at all?" |
20898 | Suppose we meet forces already organized? |
20898 | Suppose we take a fast tour, with you and I taking quick peeks, without the peekees ever knowing we''ve been peeking?" |
20898 | Suppose you could?" |
20898 | Suppose?" |
20898 | Sure your stuff''s all aboard?" |
20898 | Surely you do n''t think I''m enough of a heel, Jim, to step on your toes like that?" |
20898 | Surely, you do n''t think I''m going to_ invite_ you into my room, do you?" |
20898 | Than sheer perfection?" |
20898 | That Jezebel? |
20898 | That does n''t take either brains or ability....""Oh, no?" |
20898 | That egomaniac? |
20898 | That iceberg? |
20898 | That might have something to do with it, do n''t you think?" |
20898 | That now you''re going too far? |
20898 | That reminds me-- are you getting anywhere on that N- problem? |
20898 | That these twenty- odd men, having had their minds opened and having been given insight into what is possible, will go forward instead of backward?" |
20898 | That with really adult Primes running things the Galactic Service would run itself? |
20898 | That would keep them from killing anyone standing near me, do n''t you think?" |
20898 | The city had disappeared long since; for hundreds of almost- level square miles there extended a sparkling, seething, writhing expanse of-- of what? |
20898 | The funny pictures, eh?" |
20898 | The pattern is not clear... but I wo n''t order screens down until I have to... if the reason had come from Belle....""_ Me_?" |
20898 | The question is, do or do you not want those four deeply- buried cells blasted out of existence?" |
20898 | Then where would he go?" |
20898 | Then, through Belle''s solidly- set blocks,"How are you doing, ace? |
20898 | Then, to Lola:"You''ve been reading these-- these Hodellians?" |
20898 | Then, to the Engineer,"Do you know how they rehab a planet that''s been leveled flat by the golop?" |
20898 | Then-- I''ll do it real slow, and watch me close-- you do like so... get it?" |
20898 | Then:"Do you mean to say,"asked the merchant prince,"that you Galaxians are not the only ones who have interstellar travel?" |
20898 | Then:"Do you think you''re kidding, Belle?" |
20898 | These things were-- what? |
20898 | They ca n''t go down a sewer that way?" |
20898 | Those idiots you have been thinking of as''guardians''? |
20898 | To have a private conference right out here in the Main... or is it?" |
20898 | To minds linked to your own and to mine?" |
20898 | To think you can add_ me_ to your collection of bootlicking, round- heeled tramps?" |
20898 | Tomorrow morning all right with you?" |
20898 | Unless, Alsyne, you do n''t agree?" |
20898 | Until a day, then?" |
20898 | Until, finally:"Clee, just how long are you going to keep this up?" |
20898 | Very striking, of course, sir, but I do n''t think I''d care for it much on me-- unless you''d think I should, sir?" |
20898 | We will be glad to trade you something for it, if we have anything you would like to have?" |
20898 | We''re just about to open up the galaxy, are n''t we?" |
20898 | Were all these worlds also peopled by_ Homo Sapiens_? |
20898 | What age do you think this is-- that of the Vikings? |
20898 | What are they? |
20898 | What are you, an octopussy or an Arpalone?" |
20898 | What are your ratios of value for the four metals here on Hodell?" |
20898 | What can you do?" |
20898 | What did he_ do_ to you, anyway?" |
20898 | What did they feel like to you-- mosquito netting? |
20898 | What do those facts mean to you?" |
20898 | What do you think of_ them_ comfits, Chief?" |
20898 | What do you think they''ve got down there, Clee Garlock, that could possibly handle you and me both?" |
20898 | What do you think, Belle?" |
20898 | What do you think, Jim?" |
20898 | What do_ you_ think you''re good for on this project? |
20898 | What first?" |
20898 | What happens to the bodies they''re dumping down manholes? |
20898 | What is it, then?" |
20898 | What is it? |
20898 | What is the reaction? |
20898 | What job?" |
20898 | What shall I study?" |
20898 | What system are you using now?" |
20898 | What then?" |
20898 | What was it all about?" |
20898 | What were they? |
20898 | What would I have? |
20898 | What would you think of_ that_ for a thesis, Lola?" |
20898 | What''s so funny about that?" |
20898 | What''s the angle?" |
20898 | What''s the answer?" |
20898 | What''s the matter? |
20898 | What''s the use of being Primes if we ca n''t get any good out of it? |
20898 | What, actually, have you got? |
20898 | When SOP in getting a wife was to beat her unconscious with a club and drag her into the longboat by her hair? |
20898 | When do we want to hit him?" |
20898 | Where can you be from?" |
20898 | Where do they come from?" |
20898 | Where does this lead go to?" |
20898 | Where from?" |
20898 | Where is it, please?" |
20898 | Where is its capital? |
20898 | Where the_ hell_ have you been all morning? |
20898 | Where''ll I flip it, Clee? |
20898 | Where?" |
20898 | Wherefore, when Garlock and his joyous companion reached the great spaceship--"How come you picked up_ that_ little man- eating shark?" |
20898 | Which one do you want next?" |
20898 | Which?" |
20898 | Who does?" |
20898 | Who else could run the Project? |
20898 | Who is going to come to whom? |
20898 | Who, Lingonor, is the leader of your opposition, if any?" |
20898 | Who? |
20898 | Why are you building your ship so small?" |
20898 | Why ca n''t this one do it? |
20898 | Why did n''t we blast them out of the way and land anyway?" |
20898 | Why did you make yours so big? |
20898 | Why do n''t all the planets get together and develop something to kill every Ozobe in every system of the group?" |
20898 | Why do n''t you ever knock me into an outside loop? |
20898 | Why else did you initiate our break?" |
20898 | Why in all hell do n''t you start_ using_ it?" |
20898 | Why not let''em really enjoy their honeymoon?" |
20898 | Why not?" |
20898 | Why the switch? |
20898 | Why?" |
20898 | Why_ should n''t_ it be us?" |
20898 | Will you give me a try, Belle?" |
20898 | Will you please give me enough of your mental pattern, Doctor Garlock, so that I can call you in case of need? |
20898 | Will you sheathe your claws and take a lot of pains to be extra nice to her the rest of the day?" |
20898 | Will you wait right here?" |
20898 | With such people as the Prime Ministers, the labor and business leaders, the bosses and the gangsters to cope with? |
20898 | With the''copters or over by the blast- pits?" |
20898 | With those three as a grid, you could reach fifteen hundred or two thousand light- years, could n''t you?" |
20898 | Wo n''t Xenology be in for a rough ride when we check in? |
20898 | Worth a try?" |
20898 | Would you and your two assistants like to teleport out here to us, and con us down yourselves?" |
20898 | Would you be willing to sell us plans, or lease us ships...?" |
20898 | Would you like to come along with us and see the end of this particular breeding- hole of sencors?" |
20898 | Would you like to test our defenses? |
20898 | You agree with General Cordeen that there will be one or more attempts at assassination?" |
20898 | You are familiar, I suppose, with the phenomenon of ball lightning?" |
20898 | You can do_ that_?" |
20898 | You can lift large masses against much gravity?" |
20898 | You certainly have-- what else do_ you_ suppose put me so far down into the dumps?" |
20898 | You do believe, however, whether you want to or not, things you see with your own eyes?" |
20898 | You do n''t know? |
20898 | You have actually done so, at times, and won?" |
20898 | You have others, I suppose?" |
20898 | You know, I do n''t know of_ anything_ I''d rather have happen to me?" |
20898 | You said I flaunted virginity like a banner, and now Belle.... What am I doing wrong?" |
20898 | You see, nobody has visited this planet-- Groobe, its name is-- since almost all our humanity was killed, a few periods ago....""Killed? |
20898 | You think_ I''m_ like Belle Bellamy?" |
20898 | You two are really serious, are n''t you? |
20898 | You want me, I take it, to cover humanoid races, too?" |
20898 | You want to know why?" |
20898 | You will, I trust, remain here long enough to discuss certain matters with my wife and me?" |
20898 | You would n''t have any part of her, remember? |
20898 | You''d do a better job, would n''t you, if you could concentrate on it?" |
20898 | You''d think she''d....""Huh?" |
20898 | You''ll be here a long time, I hope? |
20898 | You''re worrying about_ me_? |
20898 | You''ve always held that these generators work at random-- the rest of those assumptions are based on your theory?" |
20898 | You''ve been listening to this stuff Lola and I were chewing on-- does any of it make sense to you?" |
20898 | You''ve got them-- particularly those four Primes-- clearly in mind?" |
20898 | You''ve met Alonzo P. Ferber, have n''t you? |
20898 | You, with your Prime''s mind and your Prime''s body, not have any children? |
20898 | You? |
20898 | You? |
20898 | You?" |
20898 | You?" |
20898 | Yours, personally, and others?" |
20898 | _ You_ can block it, ca n''t you?" |
20898 | and"In what way?" |
20898 | so soon? |
