4290 | And how will the world travel a hundred years hence, in 2083? |
4290 | But what would have been thought, if such a journey had been described a hundred years ago, in 1883? |
4290 | To- day have we not fifteen provinces for the most part thickly peopled, and long since fully explored to the shores of the Arctic Ocean? |
2352 | I replied:"From the United States of America, and what country is this?" |
2352 | I went ashore, when I was accosted in English with a foreign accent by a venerable looking man with the question:"Where did you come from?" |
2352 | Will you do unto others always as you would desire that others should do to you? |
31171 | Is the world nearly prepared for its great consummation? |
31171 | Is there a spiritual atmosphere, with its heights and depths, mysteriously swayed from land to land? |
31171 | Then, the triarchate; is it not surprising? |
31171 | We ask, what are we to think of it? |
31171 | What seemed so permanent as that? |
2434 | And how many sick?" |
2434 | And thereupon the man, whom I before described, stood up, and with a loud voice, in Spanish, asked,"Are ye Christians?" |
2434 | He brought us first into a fair parlour above stairs, and then asked us,"What number of persons we were? |
2434 | So likewise during marriage, is the case much amended, as it ought to be if those things were tolerated only for necessity? |
2434 | We offered him also twenty pistolets; but he smiled, and only said;"What? |
2816 | And how? |
2816 | And what befell you here? |
2816 | For who indeed would give them this facility? |
2816 | Prithee, now, tell me what happened to you during that voyage? |
2816 | What about their judges? |
2816 | Who indeed can be so wise? |
2816 | With whom do they wage war, and for what reasons, since they are so prosperous? |
16503 | Does a man throw his precious pearls and diamonds into the sea? |
16503 | Improve Nature''s gifts, and with her elements form new compounds....Were man''s faculties given that they should slumber?" |
16503 | Why, then, do ye cast the priceless health and beauty of your children to the winds? |
16503 | Would ye triumph over the seas in all their fury? 16503 But how could all this be effected if the first step to so desirable an end were wanting? 16503 Do you not see the grimaces he is making at me? |
16503 | Early inspired by the desire to benefit my fellow- creatures, I often asked myself why, in a world teeming with blessings, so much suffering existed? |
16503 | How then can ye measure the infinite might of their Creator?" |
16503 | I asked myself whether men could not be brought to seek knowledge and goodness as ardently as they sought money? |
16503 | On awakening, the patient asked with the tone and manner of a child, how old she was? |
16503 | She said,"Do you love Sylifa?" |
16503 | When brought before me, I asked Vyora what he sought? |
16503 | Why seek ye not the germs of disease poison in their minute receptacles?" |
16503 | Would ye spare the lives of those who toil for you? |
16503 | and why endless riches in the seas, in the air, in the earth, remained unworked as though they did not exist for the use of man? |
55269 | SHEWING ITS EXCELLENT GOVERNMENT_ Traveller._ Well met sir, your habit professes scholarship, are you a Graduate? |
55269 | Well, have you perused my book? |
55269 | _ Sch._ Agreed; but as we goe, what good newes doe you heare of the Parliament? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But how can the King of_ Macaria_ be so rich as you speak of? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But how come they by their great riches which you speak of? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But how cometh the Kings great honour which you speak of? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But how cometh the facilitie of becoming good Divines? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But you spoke of grat facilitie that these men have in their functions, how can that be? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But you spoke of health, how can that be procured by a better way than wee have here in England? |
55269 | _ Sch._ But you spoke of peace to be permanent in that Kingdome, how can that be? |
55269 | _ Sch._ Have you a coppy of that booke of Husbandry about you, which is to bee propounded to the Parliament? |
55269 | _ Sch._ How can that be? |
55269 | _ Sch._ It seemeth that they are Christians by your relation of the Parochiall Ministers, but whether are they Protestants or Papists? |
55269 | _ Sch._ Well, what will you doe toward the worke? |
55269 | _ Trav._ Well, doe you know any man that hath any secrets, or good experiments? |
55269 | _ Trav._ Well, what will you doe towards the worke? |
27884 | Alas? |
27884 | He commenced by publishing a card, wherein he exalted his abilities in the following expressions: What will you? |
27884 | He then demanded, what length of time I should need to fabricate another such head ornament? |
27884 | I exclaimed, and towards heaven Stretched my trembling hands,"what sin provoked thy vengeance, That all thy thunders crash upon my head? |
27884 | I exclaimed,"may I ask of you the name of this town?" |
27884 | I seriously examined my present circumstances-- were they real? |
27884 | I was replied to in this wise:"For what purpose has nature given breasts to woman? |
27884 | Shall we allow the actor to be wiser on the stage than we in life?" |
27884 | They inquire very often after each other''s health, so that one would suppose them to be all doctors; but the question: how do you do? |
27884 | What could be more honorable to a man, than to reinstate the human race in that dominion, which nature has given to it, over all other animals? |
27884 | What is on earth, what is in sea, In air and fire, from Peyvis free? |
27884 | When I had struggled onward for an hour I met a peasant, of whom, after saluting him, I demanded how far distant the borders of Maskattia were? |
27884 | Where am I? |
27884 | for the ornament of the body alone,--or for the nourishment of their children?" |
27884 | or did I dream? |
27884 | whence came I? |
27884 | who entertain strangers only to cut them up?" |
53193 | And where is Intermere? |
53193 | But how do you achieve all these different results with apparently the same means? |
53193 | But it is an absolute mystery to you? |
53193 | But what are the constituents of the medium in the accumulator, and what are the formulas of the various combinations? |
53193 | How far have we traveled? |
53193 | If your flying machine and airship builders could do that, what would your people think? |
53193 | Is that supernatural? |
53193 | Shall he be permitted? |
53193 | What would you think of his conclusion? |
53193 | Would one, coming out of the depths of absolute ignorance of scientific achievement, as you call it, regard it as a supernatural agency? |
53193 | You communicate alike with friends and strangers hundreds of miles distant in an ordinary tone of voice? |
53193 | You have what you call the telephone? |
53193 | You would learn something of our educational system? |
53193 | Could we find anything that would contribute to our enjoyments, our hopes, our aspirations? |
53193 | Did we start on the journey? |
53193 | Finally I was able to frame a consecutive thought, in the interrogative form, and it was this:"Where am I? |
53193 | Have we halted just beyond the first milestone? |
53193 | Is not this the Atlantis which enthralled the Egyptian sage, philosopher and priest more than ten cycles ago? |
53193 | Is not this true, Maros?" |
53193 | Is this the Heaven my mother taught me to seek?" |
53193 | What would it profit us? |
53193 | Wherein do you differ from the untutored barbarian?" |
53193 | Will our remoter generations reach the Ultima Thule? |
53193 | Will the journey be resumed? |
53193 | Will you sell it me for five thousand rupees, Sahib? |
2130 | But as to the question,''What more convenient way of punishment can be found?'' 2130 Happier?" |
2130 | Were you ever there? |
2130 | ''What is that?'' |
2130 | ), or to go about and beg? |
2130 | And what is delight but another name for pleasure? |
2130 | But they have asked us,''What sort of pleasure is it that men can find in throwing the dice?'' |
2130 | For if you consider the use of clothes, why should a fine thread be thought better than a coarse one? |
2130 | God has commanded us not to kill, and shall we kill so easily for a little money? |
2130 | How can there be any plenty where every man will excuse himself from labour? |
2130 | If it is said that health can not be felt, they absolutely deny it; for what man is in health, that does not perceive it when he is awake? |
2130 | Is there any man that is so dull and stupid as not to acknowledge that he feels a delight in health? |
2130 | Now, when the stomachs of those that are thus turned out of doors grow keen, they rob no less keenly; and what else can they do? |
2130 | Very few go among them on the account of traffic; for what can a man carry to them but iron, or gold, or silver? |
2130 | Who quarrel more than beggars? |
2130 | Will the bending another man''s knees give ease to yours? |
2130 | and who run to create confusions with so desperate a boldness as those who, having nothing to lose, hope to gain by them? |
2130 | and will the head''s being bare cure the madness of yours? |
2130 | answered Raphael,"is that to be compassed in a way so abhorrent to my genius? |
2130 | for, since death does not restrain theft, if men thought their lives would be safe, what fear or force could restrain ill men? |
2130 | or do you propose any other punishment that will be more useful to the public? |
2130 | who does more earnestly long for a change than he that is uneasy in his present circumstances? |
6711 | ''Who are they?'' 6711 Are we lost?" |
6711 | Are you tired? |
6711 | But you will let me help you, Philip? |
6711 | Do you remember, Gloria,he said,"how unhappy you were over the thought of laboring among the rich instead of the poor? |
6711 | How am I to change this condition? |
6711 | How will you occupy your time, Philip? |
6711 | How would it prevent your being an old maid, Janet? |
6711 | I am wondering, Mr. Dru, why you came to West Point and why it is you like the thought of being a soldier? |
6711 | I feel sure that I can, Senator, why do you ask? |
6711 | If he had faith in the sober judgment of the American people, why not trust them to a measurable extent with the conduct of their own affairs? 6711 Rockland,"began Selwyn,"can you hold this state in line at next year''s election?" |
6711 | Thank you, Senator, at what hour? |
6711 | What do you mean, Gloria? 6711 What happened?" |
6711 | What is to be the outcome, Philip? |
6711 | What''s the matter, Philip? |
6711 | Why could not I''try out''the sincerity of my rich converts and get them to help finance your campaign? |
6711 | Administrator, why do n''t you marry? |
6711 | After a long silence one afternoon she softly asked,"What are you going to do, Philip?" |
6711 | And Janet wondered whether this was a message to some unknown woman, or was it meant for Gloria? |
6711 | And how can man under such a moral code justify his dominion over land and sea? |
6711 | Are you one of the bunch?'' |
6711 | At the very worst, can it mean more than a long and dreamless sleep? |
6711 | But can they exercise that franchise, and have they equal rights? |
6711 | But in what way? |
6711 | But what of him? |
6711 | Can you give me any information upon this matter?" |
6711 | Cheer the fellow up a bit, ca n''t you?" |
6711 | Did he love Gloria, or did his love encompass the earth, and was mankind ever to be his wife and mistress? |
6711 | Do n''t you like Army Post life?" |
6711 | Do you follow me, Governor, and do you endorse this unwritten law?" |
6711 | He must be saved; but could he be? |
6711 | How are your eyes now?" |
6711 | How is that to be done? |
6711 | Is it not so?" |
6711 | Is that all you have in mind to do in the world?" |
6711 | It was a perilous journey, and to what end? |
6711 | May I come to your office at once?" |
6711 | Men have fought, struggled and died, lured by the gleam of gold, and to what end? |
6711 | Now what is the cause of the wide feeling of labor unrest? |
6711 | Now, what does the substitution of such conditions for the conditions generally prevailing to- day in England mean for our country? |
6711 | Now, what is the ideal of co- partnership? |
6711 | Seriously, though, I think you should come, for if you would know something of politics, then why not get your lessons from the fountain head? |
6711 | The girl regarded Philip for a second in silence, and then quietly asked,"For the betterment of whose life after death?" |
6711 | The question is simply this: Can I stand a period of several years''enforced inactivity as a mere pensioner?" |
6711 | Then Philip took Gloria''s unresisting hand, and said,"My beloved, will you come with me in my exile? |
6711 | Was he to live and die a fathomless mystery? |
6711 | Was there an attachment, an understanding, or was it one of those platonic friendships created by common interests and a common purpose? |
6711 | What need was there? |
6711 | What time is it?" |
6711 | What was best to do? |
6711 | What was the hoarding of money or land in comparison to the satisfaction of seeing each son happy in the possession of a home and family? |
6711 | Where were they bound? |
6711 | Who knows how large a part the mystery of birth and heredity play in one''s life and what environment and opportunity, or lack of it, means to us? |
6711 | Who shall estimate the difference between the value of willing and unwilling service? |
6711 | Would they return? |
45350 | And are they well frequented? 45350 But how did they come to erect a building of such gigantic dimensions so far beyond the circle of civilization?" |
45350 | But how, then, is it that they all speak the same language? |
45350 | But what became ultimately of the bird? |
45350 | But what is the time? 45350 Do I then understand from your remarks that you have arrived at last at a system of Compulsory Education?" |
45350 | Do n''t you even know the Solar Light? |
45350 | Does the same apply to the inhabitants of all countries where Europeans have settled? |
45350 | From Pekin? 45350 From where,"asked I,"did this train start?" |
45350 | Have those then become the two contending parties in politics? |
45350 | Have those tribes that belong to the so- called inferior races improved at all in civilization? |
45350 | I apprehend, then, that we are in a so- called arcade? |
45350 | I fully understand; the bird''s name was Java? |
45350 | I know full well,said I,"what true time is, also what is understood by mean time, but what on earth is meant by aleutic time?" |
45350 | Is it possible? |
45350 | Londinia? 45350 Now we are among the literature of the two- winged insects; what work do you wish to see?" |
45350 | On yonder tower, over the clock- face? |
45350 | Shall we say the literature of entomology? |
45350 | Then probably you warm your houses by a similar process, and you never use any stoves or fireplaces now? |
45350 | Then you hear nothing more now of what was once termed''official science''? |
45350 | Well? |
45350 | What has become of the Maoris? |
45350 | What kind of time is it you want to know? |
45350 | Where do you think,I asked,"we are going to?" |
45350 | ; why should we not have the self- registering enkephalometer? |
45350 | ; why should we not succeed in inventing a speculum for the brain? |
45350 | And do employers allow their workmen to make use of them? |
45350 | And have they reduced their wages in consequence? |
45350 | And what was the consequence? |
45350 | Are they not afraid that their men will thus become too clever, too well educated?" |
45350 | Besides, what else could have happened, since the continual invention of new machinery has done away with so much of our manual labour? |
45350 | But what has become of the once so celebrated observatories of Leiden, Greenwich, the Pulkowa, etc., etc.?" |
45350 | Did Galvani think of the telegraphic art when he noticed how the muscles of his frogs contracted under the influence of electricity? |
45350 | Has not the introduction of compulsory education been accompanied by great, almost insuperable obstacles?" |
45350 | How could you doubt that for a moment? |
45350 | I asked Bacon did he know what this edifice was intended for? |
45350 | I asked Bacon what business had those people there? |
45350 | I exclaimed;"what have you come to at last?" |
45350 | I first thought that these were a new kind of cannon; so I asked whether we were on board of a man- of- war? |
45350 | If the difference of one penny constituted no vital distinction, why not still further descend until we arrived at zero? |
45350 | Is that the same as London?" |
45350 | Not even trusting my eyes, I asked the"trunculant figure"who, Bacon said, was my countryman: Was the whole of North Holland imbedded in the sea? |
45350 | Not knowing what they meant, I once more inquired of my guide: what country did they represent? |
45350 | Our fellow- passengers woke up one after the other, and Miss Phantasia asked me would I stay at the same hotel with them at Melbourne? |
45350 | Right across or over the high mountains of Central Asia and Ural?" |
45350 | Surely they are not of iron, as they would have been in my time?" |
45350 | Surely you yourself remember the piercing of Mount Cenis? |
45350 | Surely, sir, as a gentleman you must have heard of the telephon?" |
45350 | Was not Pitt England''s prime minister on his coming of age? |
45350 | What do you call the metal used for those elegant little bars which connect and support the roof of glass above us? |
45350 | When comparing the present condition of society with that of past centuries the question naturally arises, what will the future be? |
45350 | Which branch of human knowledge do you give the preference to?" |
45350 | Why had the money qualification been abolished? |
45350 | Why should a man at one and twenty be better than he was at twenty? |
45350 | [ 4] or Volta, when, following up Galvani''s experiments, he produced the pile that bears his name? |
45350 | asked he in reply;"true, mean, or Aleutic Time? |
45350 | where did you ever know such tones to proceed from a musical instrument? |
26050 | ''But,''said I,''there are I perceive many children amongst you, how happens that? |
26050 | ''But,''said Lamont,''do you imagine that a free- thinker may not be certain of a future state?'' |
26050 | ''But,''said Lamont,''this reciprocal communication is impossible; what service can a poor man do me? |
26050 | ''Can you imagine, Madam,''interrupted Lamont,''that all you do here is a duty?'' |
26050 | ''Can you, who have never erred,''said Lady Emilia,''see my offence in so fair a light? |
26050 | ''Consider with yourself,''continued she,''which is most desirable, his esteem or his courtship? |
26050 | ''Do you then,''replied Miss Mancel,''mistake a crowd for society? |
26050 | ''Does it surprise you,''answered Mrs Morgan smiling,''to see people promote that in others which they themselves do not choose to practise? |
26050 | ''Have you not,''said Lamont,''been obliged to expel many from the community? |
26050 | ''How few people of fortune are there,''said Lamont,''who could not afford £ 1200 a year, with only retrenching superfluous and burdensome expenses? |
26050 | ''To what can we attribute this difference in an insect, which in all particulars beside, resembles so many others? |
26050 | ''Very few so much,''answered I,''but pray what share have the ladies in procuring the happiness you seem so sensible of?'' |
26050 | ''Why not, madam?'' |
26050 | And how should she? |
26050 | And must I lose you when so lately found? |
26050 | And say that such things he can not do, or can not choose because the same effects could be produced by other means? |
26050 | And what real virtue can a man truly boast, who acts in this manner? |
26050 | And yet, what else can excuse an infidel''s desire to make converts? |
26050 | As this person had many years before returned to his native country, Mr d''Avora inquired what had again brought him into England? |
26050 | But how can reason tell us to whom he has given it? |
26050 | But if they would only imitate you in any one branch, how much greater pleasure would they then receive from their fortunes than they now enjoy?'' |
26050 | But is not almost every man a Procrustes? |
26050 | But still I am puzzled; what we behold is certainly an inclosure, how can that be without a confinement to those that are within it?'' |
26050 | But to gain popular applause and esteem? |
26050 | But why do I call her friendless? |
26050 | Can a man therefore be rendered happier by being deprived of this certainty? |
26050 | Could he say what purpose the fiery comet answers? |
26050 | Did you ever see any one that was not fond of a dog that fondled him? |
26050 | For what do others throw away their time in useless civilities, and politely flatter all they meet, but in hopes of pleasing? |
26050 | For what reason then should she alter her state? |
26050 | How is its motion produced, so regular in its period, so unequal in its motion, and so eccentric in its course? |
26050 | How little society is there to be found in what you call the world? |
26050 | I and my neighbours are as happy as princesses, we have every thing we want and wish, and who can say more?'' |
26050 | I may relieve him, but how can he return the obligation?'' |
26050 | I should imagine, said I, it were very difficult to preserve a comfortable harmony among so many persons, and consequently such variety of tempers? |
26050 | If we can not comprehend the smallest works of almighty wisdom, can we expect to fathom that wisdom itself? |
26050 | Is it then possible to be insensible to the affection of a rational being?'' |
26050 | Is not this the proper answer on all occasions, when the decrees of the Almighty are discussed? |
26050 | Louisa raised her from the ground, crying,''Dear madam, what can all this mean? |
26050 | Man no doubt might exert the same functions under another form, why then has he this he now wears? |
26050 | Or can we suppose he will be more virtuous, because we have removed all the motives that arise from hope and fear? |
26050 | She had indeed no criminal actions to lay to her charge; but how should she? |
26050 | Should a schoolboy be found whipping a top during school hours, would his master forbear correction because it is an innocent amusement? |
26050 | Should we do wisely in quitting a scene where every object exalts our mind to the great Creator, to mix among all the folly of depraved nature? |
26050 | The greatest pleasure this world can give us is that of being beloved, but how should we expect to obtain love without deserving it? |
26050 | We are always ready to esteem a woman who will give us leave to do so; and can you require us to respect those who are not in the least respectable?'' |
26050 | What advantage could I expect from applying to the understanding, while your amiable disposition would captivate even reason itself? |
26050 | What bounds then ought we to set to our good offices, but the want of power to extend them further? |
26050 | What does this extreme agitation of your mind give me room to hope?'' |
26050 | What is there worth enjoying in this world that we do not possess? |
26050 | What may I not then hope from infinite mercy? |
26050 | What woman in her senses can enter into a union for life with such a man?'' |
26050 | Where can reason say immortality shall stop? |
26050 | Whether to all creation, or no part of it? |
26050 | Yet who doubts of the reality of these things? |
46128 | As I have said so often in this narrative before, what in the world could one want in excess of all this but companionship? |
46128 | As the dusk came on I began to think, What is the next most important thing for me to do? |
46128 | But how was I safely to pass over a thousand miles of water? |
46128 | But if they had been placed upon the island thus, why was it not reported, why was it not known? |
46128 | But it immediately set me thinking, How could there be goats on this island? |
46128 | But what was the use of my regaining it? |
46128 | Could anything be more miserable than our condition? |
46128 | Could it be done? |
46128 | Could it be possible? |
46128 | Did ever man drive such a car and team before? |
46128 | Do you accept? |
46128 | Do you ask what I was looking for? |
46128 | Good God, and had your retribution met them then so suddenly? |
46128 | Had I been saved to become their prey? |
46128 | Had this unfortunate been cast on shore alone as I was? |
46128 | Have I not a book of all the practical sciences to aid me in forcing Nature to give up her secrets? |
46128 | Having gathered all these riches about me, was I happier than before? |
46128 | How did he come here? |
46128 | How long did he live here? |
46128 | How many years must I stagnate on this island? |
46128 | How much character did this parchment, on the face of it, proclaim? |
46128 | How should I do it? |
46128 | I could not help thinking that if I could find iron, I could do almost anything, and why should I not be able to find it? |
46128 | I felt sure that I was right in theory; would the thing work in practice? |
46128 | I felt that the problem of all problems hereafter to me would be how can I escape to some civilized country in safety? |
46128 | I_ must_ find steel, flint, and tinder, but where? |
46128 | In what direction should we steer? |
46128 | It was first a question with them whether I could subscribe any money to the project, and secondly, what position I desired in the adventure? |
46128 | Shall I ever forget the ending of that pleasant day? |
46128 | Should I ever know how long? |
46128 | Should I find land before me? |
46128 | Should I lower the outlet of the lake so as to draw off the water in a degree? |
46128 | Such being the facts of the case, what should be my future course, and what my plans and duty? |
46128 | These tasks nearly finished the year for me, within a month and a few days, and what had I accomplished? |
46128 | This set me to thinking again, Was this nature or man? |
46128 | This was, I felt, the case, and would any be saved to be my companions on this desolate island? |
46128 | To expiate some horrible crime? |
46128 | Was it the preparatory discovery to many others, or lone and solitary? |
46128 | Was the island inhabited by savages? |
46128 | Was there land behind me? |
46128 | Was this hut all, or was it one of a series? |
46128 | What could I not do with that metal to aid me? |
46128 | What good to me was all my wealth unless I could utilize it? |
46128 | What had been this mortal''s life that he should here set down that he had gained a treasure through bloodshed? |
46128 | What should I do? |
46128 | What''s the use of our cutting each other''s throats when we have some ten or fifteen millions to spend? |
46128 | Where was I? |
46128 | Where were my companions in the boat? |
46128 | Who was to steer when I was asleep? |
46128 | Who will give you as much liberty and money as I will? |
46128 | Why did he die? |
46128 | Why had he remained in this solitary spot? |
46128 | Why should I not be able to improve my condition far beyond that which my predecessor in history had been able to do? |
46128 | Why was I punished in this manner? |
46128 | Why, who have you on your side that can navigate a vessel? |
46128 | Would this be my fate? |
46128 | Would this eventually be my fate, and should I some day have to lie down and die, too, with no one to inter my bones? |
46128 | and then supposing I should be able to arrive at Easter Island, what guarantee had I that I should not be murdered at once by the natives? |
46128 | did I hear the break of water upon land before me? |
46128 | how? |
46128 | or should I let go my last hold upon life when I unclasped my hands from the rock- weed that they held to? |
46128 | what had God still in store for us in the shape of misfortune and horror? |
46128 | what had I done that I should be imprisoned in this solitude? |
46128 | what was to be our fate? |
46128 | what was treasure to me that was at the bottom of the sea? |
14770 | Ah,quickly replied Agitator,"if the offer be sincere, why should it go by default on my simple refusal to be turned from my present course? |
14770 | And have you no way of moving through the air at pleasure? |
14770 | And how many people are on the Moon now? |
14770 | And is that world inhabited by sensible creatures? |
14770 | And what can that purpose be? |
14770 | Are all as small as you whence you came? |
14770 | Are they all pure- minded? |
14770 | Are they smaller than you? |
14770 | Are you in the image of the other human creatures in that far away world? |
14770 | Are you not a god? |
14770 | Are you not happy that you have wings with which fly? |
14770 | Artificial machinery? |
14770 | But how could you have traversed so great a distance? |
14770 | But how did he learn our language? |
14770 | But what would become of my other great work? |
14770 | Did you walk or run? |
14770 | Do you expect to meet, in that wider life, representatives from other worlds? |
14770 | For what purpose came you hither? |
14770 | From what part of our world? |
14770 | From what section of our world have you come? |
14770 | Happy? 14770 Hast thou time to spend with a friend from another world?" |
14770 | Have you come to harm us? |
14770 | Have you much soil there? |
14770 | How came that lump in the middle of your face? |
14770 | How came you here? |
14770 | How came you to our world? |
14770 | How can people live on diamonds? |
14770 | How can that be true? |
14770 | How could you have such power as to reach our world? |
14770 | How did you succeed in getting the people to submit to such a system? |
14770 | How do you account for this slow growth? |
14770 | How many millions? |
14770 | How many people live on your world? |
14770 | How many planets, how many suns, how many milky ways are there? |
14770 | How many were saved? |
14770 | How soon shall we see you again? |
14770 | If you are not a spirit, how could you have traveled such incredible distances? |
14770 | No one having wings? |
14770 | On what world then? |
14770 | Pray, tell me, what are those gummy flabs at the sides of your head? |
14770 | Shall we not see you again? |
14770 | Talking of wings, do you object if I see more closely the cut and style of your wings? 14770 What are the evidences of this horrible world- ending?" |
14770 | What can you mean by that? |
14770 | What right,I asked,"has any one to form a monopoly on sunlight or rain which are free bounties from above?" |
14770 | What shall we do? |
14770 | What then can you be? |
14770 | Where did you get this Fot- sil? |
14770 | Will you stay with us forever? |
14770 | Wo n''t you tell us, child, how far away that is? |
14770 | After a while I was addressed by a trembling questioner:"Where is your home, my child?" |
14770 | Are There More Worlds Than One? |
14770 | Are There More Worlds Than One? |
14770 | Are There More Worlds Than One? |
14770 | But how can they live away from the great body of water while plucking these fruits? |
14770 | Can any one predict the excitement that would prevail in our world if a human creature from some other planet were suddenly to set foot upon our soil? |
14770 | Can you conceive the effect of a triple choir of these human warblers all trained in perfect harmony and unison? |
14770 | Can you help me?" |
14770 | Can you imagine the picture of workmen flying in all directions with tools, each one busily employed? |
14770 | Can you realize what a refreshing moral atmosphere exists in a world where conventional lying is almost unknown? |
14770 | For what purpose are all these immense worlds shining and swinging in the depths of immensity? |
14770 | Have we not noted the laboring husband bending at his toil for eight or ten hours to pay the physician who calls for a few minutes? |
14770 | Have you not yet seen the vast craters, the mountains of barren cinder, the stumps of immense pillars, partly excavated? |
14770 | He exchanged a few sentences with the professor and again turned to me:"At what time do you want the telescope?" |
14770 | Here, in this world of ours, we are proud of the wonderful genius displayed by our inventors, and is not this conceit pardonable? |
14770 | How can all this be true? |
14770 | In a moment the chief was at my side and, looking into my face, exclaimed:"Who are you and why have you remained silent?" |
14770 | Is it not true that ignorance is the cause of nearly all the discontent in the world? |
14770 | Is it possible to picture to your mind''s eye a line of lofty mountains whose sides are dressed in living colors and trimmed with rare flowers? |
14770 | She was nervously agitated, but being of strong fibre she quickly rallied with her answer,"Where art thou and who art thou?" |
14770 | Surrendering this line of inquiry, he went on to ask the following questions:"Are there more creatures than you where you came from?" |
14770 | The timid professor ventured to accept it and, as he received it from my hand, he again asked:"Where is your home?" |
14770 | What can we expect of such a race of people who have drifted from the light of civilization for so long a period? |
14770 | Where can that be?" |
14770 | Who can select language sufficiently graphic to portray such a lurid dissolution of a planet, and the gathering of the faithful, quick and dead? |
14770 | Who can understand the universal plans of Jehovah? |
14770 | Why are countless worlds swinging in the endless regions of space? |
14770 | Will I do wrong if I quote that sublime beatitude, making it applicable to all worlds? |
14770 | how can you be a spirit without wings?" |
49207 | Am I wise? |
49207 | And who controlled them if not the houses of De Cardrosse? |
49207 | And you think to secure peace those sacrifices should be made? |
49207 | Are you sure of your own mind? 49207 But do you realise the sacrifices in all directions that have to be made?" |
49207 | But even so, what obstacle lies in the way of putting an end to the projected action, whatever its nature? |
49207 | But how could it be managed? |
49207 | But what do you mean about returning for my sake? |
49207 | But,said Lady Middlesex,"can you be sure that it always will be so?" |
49207 | Can I ever repay you for what you have done? |
49207 | Can you doubt it? |
49207 | Dare you affect to command me? |
49207 | Dare you threaten me,said she,"and in my own house?" |
49207 | Do I? |
49207 | Do you consider this a good reason? |
49207 | Do you remember,he proceeded,"the last time we were alone? |
49207 | Do you think, my lord,said the girl, very pale but still courageous,"that this course you have adopted is one that will commend you to my liking?" |
49207 | Have you your orders? |
49207 | How came you here? |
49207 | How dare you thus intrude? |
49207 | Is it not so? |
49207 | Is it so bitter a lot? |
49207 | Is this your deliberate decision? 49207 May I call you Phoebe? |
49207 | May I fetch her? |
49207 | My dear Hilda,she said,"why do you look so disturbed, and how is it you are idle? |
49207 | Reginald, dear Reginald, if your sad anticipation is to be realised, should you not cease to think of earthly things? |
49207 | Reginald,she faltered,"I fully, freely forgive you for all your wrongs to me; but can I forget that Colonel Laurient may also meet his death?" |
49207 | So, dear mamma, you were preparing me for this interview? |
49207 | Supposing,said the Empress,"he married an ambitious wife and had sons like you were, dear Albert, in your young manhood?" |
49207 | Then why finally reject me? 49207 Then you do not think that we should retreat from our position even if retreat were possible?" |
49207 | Then, Sir, may I ask, why do you hesitate? 49207 Then,"said Mrs. Hardinge, with some interest,"if the Emperor were to ask your opinion, you would try to persuade him to our side?" |
49207 | Then,said the Emperor,"the mover of the resolution that has occasioned so much trouble has not been consulted?" |
49207 | What can I do with it? 49207 What do I care for wealth?" |
49207 | What is it you wish, Albert? |
49207 | What is the use of it? |
49207 | Who is the traitor,she said,"you dare to compare with your Sovereign?" |
49207 | Who knows that he will not value the acknowledgment as you value the gift? |
49207 | Why do you wish to see me? |
49207 | Why else should I have asked such permission? |
49207 | Why not act yourself? |
49207 | Why not,said Miss Fitzherbert,"arrest them in the midst of their machinations?" |
49207 | Why not? 49207 Why not? |
49207 | Why should you talk of kindness? |
49207 | Why, may I ask, then does your Majesty hesitate? |
49207 | Why,he said,"should we learn ancient Italian any more than the Italians should learn the dialects of the ancient Britons?" |
49207 | Will you tell me what those sacrifices are? |
49207 | Would you have me,said the Emperor,"do such a wrong to my Canadian subjects? |
49207 | You love some one else, then? |
49207 | You surely,said Montreal,"do not care for Lord Reginald?" |
49207 | Your Majesty,said Miss Fitzherbert,"what am I to say? |
49207 | Your Majesty,said the girl, who as his agitation increased appeared to recover some presence of mind,"what would the world say? |
49207 | Am I to be told that, with all the power that has come to me, I am to be less free to secure my own happiness than the humblest of my subjects? |
49207 | And do you wish me to return?" |
49207 | And why do you call me Miss Buller?" |
49207 | As Colonel Laurient joined the throng Hilda said to him,"Why should I not equally congratulate you? |
49207 | But who could say that he did not see in a refusal to pass the necessary Act a means of escaping the distasteful nuptials? |
49207 | Can you spare me for ten days?" |
49207 | Do you recognise what it is you would renounce-- the position of foremost ruler on the wide globe?" |
49207 | Do you think that my Canadian volunteers are not able to perform this duty?" |
49207 | Do you think you can make me happy by tearing me from my friends by an artifice like this?" |
49207 | Does the Emperor give no reasons for his opposition?" |
49207 | He has not promised to support you?" |
49207 | Hilda, almost in tears, responded,"Dear Mrs. Hardinge, tell me, do tell me, what do you really think of Lord Reginald Paramatta?" |
49207 | How can I get rid of it?" |
49207 | How could they celebrate the independence and forget to commemorate the retrieval by their old mother- country of all her power and prestige? |
49207 | How were poor tradesmen to protect themselves? |
49207 | I suppose that the troops will at once proceed to Canada?" |
49207 | If you did not feel that there were possibilities for Reginald in conflict with your indifference, why should you trouble yourself with his removal?" |
49207 | In one word, will it suit you to supply them?" |
49207 | Lady Middlesex quickly rejoined,"Will you let me speak to you as woman to woman, and forget for a moment our official relations?" |
49207 | May I again do so?" |
49207 | May I,"she said in a tone of pathetic entreaty,"utter half a dozen words not officially, but confidentially?" |
49207 | My first, my only, love, will you be my wife?" |
49207 | Said a great lady once to an Australian gentleman,"Are not these easterly winds dreadful? |
49207 | Should I send for Lord Reginald and ask him to attempt to form a Government?" |
49207 | Should she write a letter of thanks? |
49207 | Some papers even went so far as to ask,"Was it a crime for a man to steal a loaf of bread to save his wife and child from starvation?" |
49207 | Tell me now,"he said, with a winning look,"as woman to man, not as subject to Sovereign, what does your heart dictate?" |
49207 | Tell me, my Lord, is it too late for your views to prevail?" |
49207 | The question then was mooted, Could not an aerial machine be devised to work although of higher specific gravity than the air? |
49207 | Then aloud,"Lady Cairo, what am I to do? |
49207 | They had nearly reached the level ground when at three feet distance a sentry stood before them and shouted,"Who goes there?" |
49207 | They spend much more time in learning Latin and Greek than their own language, but who ever buys a Latin or Greek book to read when he is travelling?" |
49207 | What do I doubt? |
49207 | What nation could be strong with pronounced disaffection festering in its midst? |
49207 | Who indeed could do justice to thy charms, sweet Waiwera? |
49207 | Who indeed shall say that he was aimed at? |
49207 | Why did not Lady Cairo consult him? |
49207 | Why do I doubt him? |
49207 | Why should I make a request I know can not be complied with? |
49207 | Why was he not sent for at first? |
49207 | Will you accept the conditions?" |
49207 | Will you be averse to my asking you to advise me on the subject?" |
49207 | Will you before I die give me a sister''s kiss and blessing?" |
49207 | Will you yourself not grieve to see them subordinate to their cousins, your sister''s children?" |
49207 | You are well again? |
43543 | And do you imagine that you, a composition of dust, will be able to comprehend the conceptions of a pure spirit? |
43543 | And how,said the other,"does he effect a likeness?" |
43543 | And pray what advantages have you gained by being shut out? |
43543 | And why all this anxiety? |
43543 | And why not? |
43543 | And why were you in a hermitage? |
43543 | Are you a married man? |
43543 | But is she not acting contrary to her own happiness in refusing such an opportunity? |
43543 | But why could not you think in your body? 43543 But,"I asked,"will it not interfere with the strict temperance and virtue which you are to practise for the rest of your life?" |
43543 | But,said he,"how am I to distinguish the qualities of my mind by the eye? |
43543 | Didst thou imagine,said Mahomet with a frown,"that these resolutions would have a power in my scales, which they had not in thy own heart?" |
43543 | Do you believe, then, that my body is here in concealment? |
43543 | Do you sincerely wish to relinquish your body? |
43543 | Have I not already explained to you that my body is no longer a part of me? 43543 Have I not often explained to you that the mind by being disengaged from the limbs is able to think with all its natural vigour?" |
43543 | How so? |
43543 | Is my friend then still alive? |
43543 | My dearest wife, can not you believe me? 43543 Now,"said the old man,"let me know whether he would have sent me this wish had he thought that I should live the longer by virtue of it?" |
43543 | What advantage,said he,"do you hope from the trial? |
43543 | What can you mean? 43543 What do you mean by coming to myself?" |
43543 | What is that? |
43543 | Where are they? 43543 Where are you?" |
43543 | Why do not you speak,said Cleopatra, addressing herself to the air,"and explain this mystery?" |
43543 | Why, making visible the body that you now contrive to hide? |
43543 | Why,continued the image,"are you so much astonished? |
43543 | Yes, certainly; do not you know my voice? |
43543 | Am I a spider now? |
43543 | Am I to blame for proving the more attractive of the two? |
43543 | And are you the founder of religion? |
43543 | And do you pretend to be the author of that love? |
43543 | And how can they be compelled to destroy each other so plentifully? |
43543 | And how then is it possible that we should partake of the same nature? |
43543 | And pray, except vice and debauchery, which of the pleasures of life are supplied by you? |
43543 | And what are you doing now? |
43543 | Are good intentions so abundant here? |
43543 | Are these intentions then very durable? |
43543 | Are you acquainted with your parentage? |
43543 | Are you already weary of your mission? |
43543 | Are you going back into your web? |
43543 | Are you opening your bag to let out the blessing that you told me of? |
43543 | Are your proceedings limited to a particular spot? |
43543 | But are they also looking for Babylon in the sand? |
43543 | But can I see it? |
43543 | But do men ever pray for what they do not wish to have? |
43543 | But do not you see a glimmering of light before us? |
43543 | But has there lately been any disaffection amongst my limbs? |
43543 | But how am I to see you? |
43543 | But how can he draw a town that is not there? |
43543 | But how happens it that I am in two parts, and that one half of me sleeps while the other half looks at it? |
43543 | But how is the bird to enforce execution of the parchment? |
43543 | But how long do you mean to stand projecting through the roof? |
43543 | But if you really disapprove of intemperance, why do not you positively forbid it? |
43543 | But pray what quarter of the globe are we now flying over? |
43543 | But pray, how do you obtain these good intentions? |
43543 | But there is evil in the world; whence does it come? |
43543 | But upon what grounds is he vain? |
43543 | But was that beautiful creature a disease? |
43543 | But what advantage is there in the change? |
43543 | But what do I see? |
43543 | But whence proceed our dreams, if the sleeping body has no mind in it? |
43543 | But which is upwards? |
43543 | But with all this care, how happens it that the advantages of life are so unequally dispensed? |
43543 | But, since you hardly allow me any possession upon the earth, what have I usurped? |
43543 | By what contrivance can you weigh such things as blessings and calamities? |
43543 | Can that be the famous thing that I have heard of? |
43543 | Can you deny that you spring from the earth? |
43543 | Can you in any intelligible language relate who and what you are? |
43543 | Did I not beat my wife yesterday? |
43543 | Did men wish to be dead? |
43543 | Do hopes pass for real blessings? |
43543 | Do men usually design to do a thing so often without doing it? |
43543 | Do not you see inscriptions upon them? |
43543 | Do you mean to take part of this man''s vanity away, since it is too heavy for his present disadvantages? |
43543 | For what purpose do those crowds of people continually hasten backwards and forwards? |
43543 | Had he not the use of his limbs? |
43543 | Has a leg or an arm refused to obey you, or have any of my fingers declared themselves independent? |
43543 | Have any of the senses then been remiss in their duties? |
43543 | Have not I taught my children to steal?" |
43543 | Have you bestowed many such presents upon the world? |
43543 | Have you obtained permission for me? |
43543 | Have you the arrogance to suppose that my being is vested in you? |
43543 | Have you the confidence to deny that you ought to bear your own gout? |
43543 | Here are two birds in the net: how shall we settle their claims to the parchment? |
43543 | How can a noise be entitled to a wife and children? |
43543 | How can a virtue have shape or colour?" |
43543 | How could that be, when the word was applied to many different kinds of government? |
43543 | How do you know her present circumstances? |
43543 | How is it possible that a human being should contain a devil? |
43543 | How shall we find our way? |
43543 | How shall we persuade them that we are not what we appear? |
43543 | How, then, can we have any communication with men? |
43543 | How, then, can you have the confidence to require payment for goodness which he has never received from you?" |
43543 | I believe it is so; then why should I scruple to assist in the conspiracy? |
43543 | I confess my error; but how is this loss to be repaired? |
43543 | I may add, that if all courtesy were discontinued the world would not be much improved,--and what is courtesy but falsehood? |
43543 | I see some creatures intent upon the pavement; are they men? |
43543 | I see the figure of a man in it now; has her resolution failed already? |
43543 | I should like to know by what art? |
43543 | If he wished to go, what prevented him? |
43543 | If we except the few solitary men of remarkable genius, who in the vast crowd that is left obtains any real admiration? |
43543 | Is he a man of genius, or what endowments has he to justify this pretence? |
43543 | Is it I who plot and deceive? |
43543 | Is it not a great folly that we, who know we are immortal beings, should always perplex ourselves about the hurry and use of time? |
43543 | Is it possible that such should be the hatred of men towards each other? |
43543 | Is it wonderful that a god should be able to speak?" |
43543 | Is she not likely to do more good to men than to the stars? |
43543 | Is that one of the modern laws of writing?" |
43543 | Is that the vocation of heavenly beings? |
43543 | Is there, indeed, any thing in which I surpass you? |
43543 | Is this the sea that quivers in the sun below us? |
43543 | Is your native place heaven or earth? |
43543 | It is ingeniously contrived: but how does a man discover his own intentions in this great space? |
43543 | It must be something of extraordinary value: is it philosophy, or religion? |
43543 | Johnson says,"Who does not wish that the author of the''Iliad''had gratified succeeding ages with a little knowledge of himself?" |
43543 | May I venture then to ask why I do not remember to have conversed with any heavenly being before? |
43543 | Now what do you see in the mirror? |
43543 | Now what do you see? |
43543 | Oh God, restore to me my property, or who will praise thy justice upon earth? |
43543 | Or what is the particular excellence of such a pavement? |
43543 | Pray answer me, was it the body that invented wine? |
43543 | Pray go on: what other good have you done? |
43543 | Pray how should I interfere with human happiness? |
43543 | Pray why is it that none wish to live again that part of their lives which is gone, and yet all set a high value upon the remainder? |
43543 | Quis nisi Callimachus? |
43543 | Since, then, mathematics are the only kind of human learning which you can ascribe to yourself alone, what would the world be without my inventions? |
43543 | Take care, Belphegor; do you see what is coming? |
43543 | That reason, imagination, memory, and all my great endowments, are derived from your muscles and arteries? |
43543 | Then have I not reason to complain of a vassal so turbulent and seditious as I have always found you? |
43543 | Then if we are to go abroad, is it advisable that you should travel in the disguise of a spider, or will you not take a more convenient shape? |
43543 | This invention is exactly described by Horace:--"Discedo Alcæus puncto illius, ille meo quis? |
43543 | This it is that troubles me: if God is good, why does he not grant to every man his desire? |
43543 | To what purpose or benefit, then, should I enjoin prayer in the Koran, and how can I recommend it? |
43543 | To which of my limbs did it first occur that the grape might become a delicious liquor? |
43543 | Was I not intoxicated last night? |
43543 | Was it the foot, the hand, or the shoulder, that conceived the happy thought? |
43543 | Well, Recab, are you ready to set out? |
43543 | Well, do not you fly with more ease now? |
43543 | What are those heaps that I see near the gates? |
43543 | What can it be? |
43543 | What can they be? |
43543 | What does this inscription mean,"Never to see my friend''s wife again?" |
43543 | What have you been doubting about? |
43543 | What have you in that bag? |
43543 | What is a star? |
43543 | What is the matter with you? |
43543 | What is the matter? |
43543 | What is to come next? |
43543 | What is your employment, and what are you? |
43543 | What noise is it that I hear? |
43543 | What would become of all the unhappy if they listened only to you for comfort? |
43543 | What would man be without hope? |
43543 | What wrong can you accuse me of? |
43543 | Where are you going? |
43543 | Who is it that speaks? |
43543 | Who is to decide what kind of happiness is pretended, and what real? |
43543 | Why are they opening the gates? |
43543 | Why have we taken this long flight to destroy the happiness of mankind? |
43543 | Why not? |
43543 | Will God create a new race? |
43543 | Will they not take the opportunity to seize upon me? |
43543 | Will you tell me what behaviour I ought to assume in your presence? |
43543 | Your task is to bring all those nations to the same belief? |
43543 | are all schemes of fraud contrived by my muscles? |
43543 | can a prayer be caught in a net, like a fish? |
43543 | do you presume to question my immortality? |
43543 | inquired his friend:"what cause have you for suspicion?" |
43543 | is this matter unknown even to the angels? |
43543 | or is it in the same condition as Babylon? |
43543 | said he;"is all that I have lost collected there?" |
43543 | shall I never see you again, and shall I only reason about you in future?" |
43543 | she exclaimed;"what can this mean? |
43543 | the city of the murderer, Constantine, whom we have below? |
43543 | what do I hear? |
43543 | what has happened to me? |
43543 | what have you done?" |
43543 | where have you been during all these ages? |
55505 | ''But,''asked the attorney,''what if she should suspicion something, and drop a letter to Ganoe into some street box? 55505 ''You worked it well,''said the stranger,''but what shall I write to Ganoe? |
55505 | Am I to understand that you have an old world here, and is this the new, just as we have it in the outer world? |
55505 | And do you not intend,asked Oqua,"to reveal your identity to him in some way so that when you return, no concealments will be necessary? |
55505 | And do you tell me this as sober truth? |
55505 | And from this,I said,"am I to infer that you think America is about ready for such an uplifting of the masses? |
55505 | And how could I get along without assistance? 55505 And how,"I asked,"would you state these purposes so as to include all you have given me, in the fewest possible number of words?" |
55505 | And now Dr. Day,continued my visitor,"will you undertake to discharge the trust committed to you by Jack Adams?" |
55505 | And was it,I asked,"necessity that compelled the founders of this district to organize this system of community life?" |
55505 | And what is that greater work? |
55505 | And what preparation do you advise? |
55505 | And why should I not have? |
55505 | And,I asked,"what is to hinder you from telling me something about these ruins now, and what they have to do with Norrena''s economic lessons?" |
55505 | But are we not under obligations to those who assist us when in trouble? |
55505 | But how am I to develop this God- like character? |
55505 | But how are all these numerous employes on your railroads, in your stores and the various departments of industry paid? |
55505 | But how is it,I asked,"that you have such a realizing sense of the horrors of poverty, when you have always had an abundance?" |
55505 | But how is this? |
55505 | But how long do you think it will be,asked the Captain,"before we will have an opportunity to get the ship clear of the ice?" |
55505 | But how,I asked,"can you get at them?" |
55505 | But how,I asked,"do you account for the change?" |
55505 | But the question is, How can they make the change while bound hand and foot under the profit system? |
55505 | But was there not some danger that designing people might get control and defeat the purposes of the organization? |
55505 | But what do they use? |
55505 | But what if I object to the arrangement? |
55505 | But what observations can we make,I asked,"that could not be made from the surface? |
55505 | But what''s the matter? |
55505 | But where is the light, and what can I do to shed it broadcast among them? |
55505 | But why,I asked,"do you now, after centuries of abundance, still make these lessons so prominent in your educational system?" |
55505 | But why,I asked,"is it that this concave sphere does not shut off the light from the sun?" |
55505 | But would you,I asked,"discourage these specific measures at this time because the masses are poor?" |
55505 | But,I asked,"on what grounds do you expect him to object?" |
55505 | But,I asked,"why should you give up this work, now that you have it so far completed, into my inexperienced hands? |
55505 | But,I asked,"why this equality of dividends? |
55505 | But,asked the Captain,"do you permit no private ownership of property at all in these communities?" |
55505 | But,asked the Captain,"have you no arrangement by which a man and his wife could get out on these wild lands and make a home for themselves?" |
55505 | But,said Norrena,"if she was a person he could not love and respect as a wife, was it not better that he should refuse to consummate the relation?" |
55505 | Do you intend to say,I asked,"that this is the original boat that found its way into the inner world a thousand years ago? |
55505 | Do you not often find this difficult? |
55505 | Do you propose to go alone? 55505 Do you think the danger so pressing as that?" |
55505 | Do you think they would refuse to make the change from profit to equity, if they had the opportunity to do so? |
55505 | Have your new surroundings led you to believe that we can set aside the laws of nature? |
55505 | How can a people who are bound hand and foot, save themselves? |
55505 | How could he reproach you, Nequa, when he realized that it was all for love of him? |
55505 | How far will it be? |
55505 | How is it,I asked,"that you now take the birds for our guide, something you have never done before?" |
55505 | How is this? |
55505 | How so? |
55505 | How,I asked,"can that be, when millions are asking to hear them read all at once?" |
55505 | If all these ideals have been realized, is it not a promise, or a prophecy, that our ideals of to- day, will be realized in the future? 55505 If they were indeed so poor,"I asked,"how was it possible for them to break the chains by which they were bound?" |
55505 | Is this the same plan that you outlined in your address? |
55505 | Is this true? |
55505 | My God,I exclaimed,"this can not be, it must not be, but how can I prevent it? |
55505 | Then it seems,I said,"that this was something of a religious as well as a business organization?" |
55505 | Then you are not a total stranger to these scenes? |
55505 | Then, do you believe this theory? |
55505 | Then,I said,"would you have me ignore this, to me, most singular system of commencing the education of children before they are born?" |
55505 | Well Jack, what do you think of it? |
55505 | Well, what of that? |
55505 | Were these exchanges incorporated as joint stock companies? |
55505 | Were you not talking Altrurian philosophy all the time we were together on the Ice King? 55505 What is that?" |
55505 | What''s that? 55505 Where can I find him?" |
55505 | Why feel under such obligations to anyone? |
55505 | Why go by way of the tunnel? |
55505 | Why hopeless? |
55505 | Why not? |
55505 | Why should they get more than people who are engaged in laborious occupations? |
55505 | Why what is the matter? |
55505 | Why,I asked,"have you had any intimation of the kind?" |
55505 | Will you please explain how this is done? |
55505 | Will you,I asked,"please explain just what you regard as the natural law of human development?" |
55505 | Wo n''t you give me the particulars? |
55505 | Would they expect any such sweeping results from selling their trade to the firm that would give them the largest rebate on prices? 55505 You certainly do not mean to say that mentally active people are not liable to get sick in this inner world?" |
55505 | A country or a city?" |
55505 | A strange voice asked:"''Where is your young wife?'' |
55505 | Addressing Battell, Captain Ganoe asked:"What do you think of the situation?" |
55505 | Am I to be brought into the presence of not one, but a world full of these God- like characters?" |
55505 | And Yankee like I said:"I reply by asking, what do you think, Captain? |
55505 | And why had the usual decrepit appearance of age disappeared from view? |
55505 | And,"turning to me, he continued,"what do you have to say, Jack? |
55505 | Anything going wrong?" |
55505 | Are you willing to register and assume the duties incumbent upon citizenship?" |
55505 | As I stepped on board, I met an officer who accosted me with the familiar salutation:"Hello Jack, what will you have?" |
55505 | At the request of the applicants for registration as man and wife, I have invited you as witnesses and will ask if any one objects to their union?" |
55505 | Battell looked his astonishment as he asked:"Is this heaven? |
55505 | But Captain, how many do you have with you?" |
55505 | But is it really necessary for us to be numbered and labeled? |
55505 | But what can you do, and what evidence have you to offer that you can render valuable service in an expedition of this character? |
55505 | But what do you infer from that?" |
55505 | But what had become of the crew? |
55505 | But what of this excursion beneath the waters of the lake? |
55505 | But what shall be done with your baggage when it arrives?" |
55505 | But when was it built? |
55505 | But where in the world did all that sand come from? |
55505 | But whither would they carry us? |
55505 | But who will go with me? |
55505 | But why are the others still helpless? |
55505 | But why did you risk your life to save mine?" |
55505 | But why speculate? |
55505 | By what means can this be accomplished?" |
55505 | Can you explain it to me?" |
55505 | Can you explain the change in his case while the others are still helpless?" |
55505 | Can you explain to me why I can not turn my glass to the zenith and see the opposite side of the concave?" |
55505 | Can you undertake the work?" |
55505 | Can you, Captain Ganoe?" |
55505 | Captain Battell, who was walking by my side, broke in upon my meditations by asking:"What do you think of it, Jack? |
55505 | Could this earth be a hollow shell with an outer and inner surface? |
55505 | Could we escape? |
55505 | Did you know him?'' |
55505 | Did you not meet an officer who could attend to your wants?" |
55505 | Do you see that herculean sailor rushing around down there and evidently making himself useful in caring for his comrades?" |
55505 | Have I been asleep?" |
55505 | Have you ever thought of these strange effects which flow from trivial causes?" |
55505 | Have you forgotten what I told you last evening? |
55505 | Have you no opinions to offer, and nothing to suggest?" |
55505 | How are the prices fixed, what is the standard and how are balances settled?" |
55505 | How did the multitudes, especially in this city and on this coast, escape the grasp of these money- kings who also owned the real estate? |
55505 | How do you account for it?" |
55505 | How do you expect to get up steam without fuel?" |
55505 | How do you like this enchanted land?" |
55505 | How is it that they have all merged into one type, ranging in complexion from blonde to brunette?" |
55505 | How is this?" |
55505 | How long have I been here?" |
55505 | How much are you willing to do toward this work of saving the world? |
55505 | How was it possible to preserve it so long?" |
55505 | How will it suit you?" |
55505 | I aroused him from his reverie with the inquiry:"Is this Captain Ganoe?" |
55505 | I felt the need of just such sympathy as hers, and why should I spurn it from me? |
55505 | I had traversed every latitude from Greenland to the South frigid zone and was now mentally asking"Where shall I go next?" |
55505 | I met MacNair in the dining hall and in his usual cheerful manner he asked:"Well, Jack, how did you rest?" |
55505 | I thought Battell intended that two of your sailors should go with you?" |
55505 | If the movement here was started by the very poor, how did they get money for the necessary cash capital?" |
55505 | In San Francisco--"Where shall I go next?" |
55505 | Is he still living?" |
55505 | Is not this putting on a little too much style for these regions of eternal ice?" |
55505 | Oqua then raising her eyes with a mischievous twinkle, asked with a comical expression of countenance:"Shall it be Jack Adams?" |
55505 | Recovering himself, he advanced and grasped Captain Ganoe by the hand exclaiming:"How did you get here? |
55505 | Shaking his hand again I asked:"Will we ever have a world of truth such as has been the dream of every altruist?" |
55505 | The question was, Who got the difference between the amount received by the actual producer and the price paid by the consumer? |
55505 | Then turning to Captain Ganoe he asked:"What do you think of our prospect of success?" |
55505 | Then why was it that I could not compose myself to read or write? |
55505 | Was it fair to those who purchased large quantities of goods, to require them to share equally with those who purchased on a small scale?" |
55505 | We were more than a little mystified at the turn the conversation had taken and as it related to us Captain Ganoe asked:"What does this mean? |
55505 | What I want to know is, why these gaseous contents at the center, are opaque while the air at the surface is not?" |
55505 | What could it mean? |
55505 | What could it mean? |
55505 | What do you think of it?" |
55505 | What is Orbitello? |
55505 | What is the matter? |
55505 | What is to come next? |
55505 | What right have we to the fruits of the labor of others to whom, as yet, we have been of no benefit whatever?" |
55505 | What shall I say to him?'' |
55505 | What was it that had so entirely taken possession of my consciousness? |
55505 | What were you thinking about?" |
55505 | What will be your address?" |
55505 | When this time comes, what would you do?" |
55505 | Where are we? |
55505 | Where are your men, that women are permitted to engage in these hazardous enterprises?" |
55505 | Where did they come from?" |
55505 | Where did you come from and whither are you going? |
55505 | Where did you come from, and what is all this rigging for?" |
55505 | Who could tell? |
55505 | Why should I be continually thinking of him? |
55505 | Why such a contrast between humanity here in this great communal home, and humanity in the tenement houses in the large cities of the outer world? |
55505 | Why was it I felt this restless longing for something that seemed just beyond my reach? |
55505 | Why were the people in this communal home more robust, more beautiful and more kind and cheerful than the people of the outer world? |
55505 | Why would not mental suggestion have the same effect on them?" |
55505 | Will Captain Ganoe and yourself, with your external world experience and observation be there to superintend the work?" |
55505 | Will you come to Lake Byblis and start from there? |
55505 | Would not the tendency of such a movement be, to still further curtail the demand for labor, by depressing the the price of products?" |
55505 | You certainly can not think that women are out of place when they are protecting their own offspring?" |
55505 | You have women commanding fleets in the air, and if so, why not have them navigating the ocean and commanding your armies and navies?" |
55505 | and for what purpose? |
55505 | asked Captain Ganoe,"and should we not repay them for the burdens we impose on them?" |
55505 | or shall I send it to some other point? |
37821 | ''Nay,''answered the man,''do you not see that both hands are encumbered? 37821 ''Why not?'' |
37821 | ''Why not?'' 37821 Am I really such a coxcomb as that?" |
37821 | Am I to condole with you, then? |
37821 | An indiscretion? |
37821 | And Lydia-- isn''t Lydia beautiful? |
37821 | And Lydia? |
37821 | And do you mean to say that Campbell hoards ornaments? |
37821 | And have n''t I known Chairo all my life,responded the witness triumphantly,"and is n''t that just what I''m telling you? |
37821 | And he is in love with Lydia? |
37821 | And what do you play at? |
37821 | And what does Lydia say to it? |
37821 | And what is your name? |
37821 | And what mathematician will be selected? |
37821 | And what was done? |
37821 | And where are you going? |
37821 | And why did everybody look at one another when Ariston sang about Demeter? |
37821 | And why have they cut all the hair off your face and left that ugly little stubble? |
37821 | And would you have me hold anything back? |
37821 | And you have got rid of Ariston altogether? |
37821 | And you mean to say you did nothing but lawyerise? |
37821 | And you saw him? |
37821 | And you think,said I, protesting,"that it is right to sacrifice the love of a woman for life?" |
37821 | And you think,said Lydia,"that a woman should not accept the mission if she already loves?" |
37821 | And yours? |
37821 | Are you a little grateful? |
37821 | Are you ill? |
37821 | Are you quite sure,asked Ariston,"that the enforced rest from her artistic work is such a bad thing? |
37821 | Bashful? |
37821 | But I thought all the gold was owned by the state and used exclusively for foreign exchanges? |
37821 | But I thought you worked only three or four hours a day? |
37821 | But can Chairo insist on the publication of his letter? |
37821 | But did you guess why? |
37821 | But have n''t you chosen yours? |
37821 | But have you met your neighbor, Anna of Ann? |
37821 | But how are you going to learn wisdom,asked I,"in a matter so difficult?" |
37821 | But how could the Government undertake control of marriage? |
37821 | But how do you practise this system of provisional marriage? |
37821 | But she would have to work some part of the day at the farm, would n''t she? |
37821 | But tell me, what do you do when you are not haymaking? |
37821 | But where,asked I,"do they derive this power of theirs?" |
37821 | But which is your real reason-- to spare Neaera or to spare me? |
37821 | But why are you so anxious to keep it a secret? |
37821 | But why the military escort? |
37821 | But wo n''t factory work be very hard and brutalizing? |
37821 | But you do n''t suppose Anna of Ann would be induced to marry you just because you could support her, do you? |
37821 | But,I interrupted,"is not this cult of Demeter a dangerous thing?" |
37821 | But,asked I,"does not the very fact that your cult raises these difficulties put into question the wisdom of the cult itself?" |
37821 | Can I guess? |
37821 | Can you give your methods a name? |
37821 | Could not this, too, have been a part of the plot? |
37821 | Did any one that night gain admission after dark? |
37821 | Did no one else go to his rooms from two in the afternoon to the arrival of Lydia next morning? |
37821 | Did no one pass out next day whom you had not admitted on the previous night? |
37821 | Did you dream of_ me_? |
37821 | Did you ever hear,said I,"the Eastern story of the man with the staff, the cock, and the pot?" |
37821 | Did you get the names of all? |
37821 | Did you have a dream in the night? |
37821 | Did you hear anything? |
37821 | Did you not mean it to be so? |
37821 | Did you not recognize the woman? |
37821 | Do n''t you see he does n''t like it? |
37821 | Do tell me-- I am dying to know-- how did it happen and what do you think of us? 37821 Do you mean to say,"asked I,"that superstition has survived among you?" |
37821 | Have n''t I sworn to tell the whole truth as well as nothing but the truth? |
37821 | Have you seen or talked with Masters''s aunt since that day? |
37821 | Her mother I have seen at the Lydia''s, but her father-- what kind of a man is he? |
37821 | How and where shall I begin? |
37821 | How much do you know about it? |
37821 | How so? |
37821 | How so? |
37821 | Hunting? |
37821 | I am sure we are going to be great friends, and you will never misunderstand me, will you? |
37821 | I have been looking at your clothes; you do n''t mind, do you? 37821 I will,"answered I,"but tell_ me_ first where I am and where we are going?" |
37821 | In the first place,asked I,"is it sure to bring a sensible benefit to the race? |
37821 | Is it possible that the Christian religion can live side by side with the cult of Demeter? |
37821 | Is it two centuries, or a thousand years? |
37821 | Is n''t journalism of your choosing? |
37821 | Is n''t she foolish now not to marry him? |
37821 | Is n''t your money valueless two years after its issue? |
37821 | Is the food bad there? |
37821 | Is there any fear of arrest? |
37821 | It is false, of course? |
37821 | Might not this have been done by Neaera,asked Masters,"in compliance with a prior understanding with Chairo?" |
37821 | My dear Ariston,answered I,"do you suppose Anna is going to fall into your arms the moment you open them to her? |
37821 | Of whom are you thinking? |
37821 | Physically contaminated? |
37821 | Shall Ariston stay while we talk about this? |
37821 | They are going to sacrifice her to a mathematician? |
37821 | Was it so like him that you saw it at once? |
37821 | Was n''t Burns a plough- boy? |
37821 | Was no one else in Masters''s apartment besides his aunt? |
37821 | Was no one else there? |
37821 | Well,she said, as we walked together side by side,"when are you going to begin?" |
37821 | What carriage? |
37821 | What do you mean,exclaimed Cleon, taking Ariston seriously,"she can be a great artist, without being recognized?" |
37821 | What do you mean; work or play? |
37821 | What do you mean? |
37821 | What do you mean? |
37821 | What do you work at, and what do you play at? |
37821 | What does that mean--''Demetrian''? |
37821 | What does this Cult of Demeter have to do with your sister? |
37821 | What had the gesture of Lydia, as Chairo kissed her hand, meant; was it an acceptance? |
37821 | What is it? |
37821 | What is it? |
37821 | What is the matter, Aunt Lydia? |
37821 | What is your proof of the correctness of your statement? |
37821 | What shall I do, Chairo? |
37821 | What was''your own work''? |
37821 | What, nothing but law? 37821 What_ do_ you suppose she is going to do? |
37821 | When did Masters leave? |
37821 | When does Harmes arrive? |
37821 | Where on earth do you come from, Xenos, and where--_where_ did you get_ those_ things? |
37821 | Who is Chairo? |
37821 | Who passed your lodge and went to Masters''s staircase on the day before Chairo and Lydia went there? |
37821 | Who tampered with Chairo''s carriage? |
37821 | Who was it? |
37821 | Why do n''t you stick your staff in the ground and put the cock under the pot? |
37821 | Why not? |
37821 | Will you, indeed? |
37821 | Will you? |
37821 | Would you be surprised if I could guess at what hour she passed out? |
37821 | Yes, and why should n''t we be? 37821 You are very prosperous then?" |
37821 | You could not expect me to believe them, could you? |
37821 | You do not know of your knowledge just where every one who passes your lodge goes? |
37821 | You have guessed right,said I;"and what year are you?" |
37821 | You mean to say you would n''t like to join us in our work? |
37821 | You wo n''t tell any one you have seen it, will you? |
37821 | _ We_ must n''t be hard on flirts, must we? |
37821 | Am I not right?" |
37821 | And if Chairo had rights does he not stand, too, for the rights of all his sex?" |
37821 | And if so, how reconcile Christ and Demeter? |
37821 | And in the second, is the sacrifice a beautiful one? |
37821 | And was not the greater the love the nobler the sacrifice? |
37821 | And what was the meaning of the sign of the cross? |
37821 | And yet I was puzzled; was Lydia not a Demetrian? |
37821 | And, indeed, how could it be otherwise? |
37821 | Are the persons guilty of this crime to be left uncorrected and free to frame new plots of violence against the state? |
37821 | Are you going to lose yours?" |
37821 | But Chairo looked at me again with a look so frank that I ventured:"Tell me,"I said,"is Lydia going to accept the mission?" |
37821 | But Cleon must join the haymakers; what would you like to do?" |
37821 | But I was still more anxious to be with Lydia, so I asked:"Does Cleon work with his sister?" |
37821 | But is it not dangerous for you to be here?" |
37821 | But only a very few enjoyed the privilege of idleness-- or shall we call it''liberty''?" |
37821 | But tell me, wo n''t she object to your having told me her secret?" |
37821 | But the brows of the women darkened and I felt we were on dangerous ground, so I asked:"And what are you going to do this afternoon?" |
37821 | But the whole party rose now to begin work on another hillside and Lydia turned to me with:"Why do you stay with us? |
37821 | But then, there_ was_ some excuse for us, was n''t there?" |
37821 | Ca n''t you see the difference between choosing work and refusing it?" |
37821 | Can she be said to have consented when, under an influence that paralyzed her will she paid her tribute at the altar? |
37821 | Chairo clearly regarded the cult of Demeter as dangerous and bad; how long then would he tolerate it? |
37821 | Cleon had told me she had not yet made up her mind; but was there not in this greeting with Chairo a practical admission of a betrothal? |
37821 | Could it be that we could keep these things and yet remain loyal to the religion of sacrifice? |
37821 | Could we worship as well at the voluptuous altar of Cytherea and at the mystic shrine of the Holy Grail? |
37821 | Did not Christ Himself say,''What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul''?" |
37821 | Did she consent?" |
37821 | Did you ever have any divorce cases?" |
37821 | Did you never get tired of doing nothing but law?" |
37821 | Do n''t you remember the beautiful necklace Neaera wears? |
37821 | Do you call the respect of private property Radical?" |
37821 | Do you not see that by imposing them in such cases as theirs you are risking the wreck of your entire system?" |
37821 | Had I been acting in a Greek play and been stunned by an accident to the scenery? |
37821 | Harmes spoke so freely of the whole subject that I ventured to ask him:"And Neaera-- was it her fault or yours?" |
37821 | Harmes''eye flashed a moment, and then looking around the table, and finally at Ariston, asked:"Can I speak freely?" |
37821 | Have you ever seen Anna''s statue of Bacchus?" |
37821 | How is that possible?" |
37821 | How long did it last? |
37821 | How much of Michael Angelo''s time was spent in the purely mechanical part of his art? |
37821 | How should she not? |
37821 | I asked;"but where do you hunt?" |
37821 | I have told you of a duty I felt to him, but to every duty is there not a corresponding right? |
37821 | I must have uttered a low cry, for I heard a voice I knew well say mockingly:"Does it hurt?" |
37821 | I saw her meaning: Man might subdue Nature to his use; what then? |
37821 | I thought you were in the thick of it?" |
37821 | In what country am I? |
37821 | Is it not rather inhuman and repulsive?" |
37821 | Is this a matter of purely private concern?" |
37821 | Lydia lowered her voice as she said:"You still love Chairo?" |
37821 | Must she indeed renew the anguish of that hour-- nay, treble it, by laying it bare to all the world? |
37821 | Our party seated itself about an adjoining table and presently Neaera called to me:"Xenos, are you going to lecture at our hall?" |
37821 | Shall I investigate this matter, or would it not perhaps be better for you to turn over the leaf and start a clean page somewhere else? |
37821 | She slowly disengaged herself, and looking into Iréné''s face, said:"And so you tell me to refuse the mission?" |
37821 | She smiled as she said:"How about a chair, Xenos?" |
37821 | So I asked:"You have heard the witnesses; what is your own impression of the matter?" |
37821 | So I returned to our original subject:"But how can Campbell hoard?" |
37821 | The question, therefore, arises, What am I to do? |
37821 | Then very slowly he said:"What do you mean by consent? |
37821 | Was Christianity still alive, then? |
37821 | Was he to be nevertheless forever consumed by immortality? |
37821 | Was it for a moment or for all time? |
37821 | Was she to renounce this highest standard of maternity? |
37821 | Was there ever beauty greater than her''s?" |
37821 | We dress a little differently in town-- but what do you find peculiar in my attire? |
37821 | What did it all mean? |
37821 | What did it all mean? |
37821 | What else could I wear out in the fields?" |
37821 | What had happened? |
37821 | What have you been thinking about all this time?" |
37821 | What if she did; is there not something in the world worth more than mathematics?" |
37821 | What though she did love Chairo, was it not this very love which the goddess bade her renounce? |
37821 | What was happening in the blue depths of those eyes? |
37821 | What, asked Anna, should be done? |
37821 | What, then, was the meaning of this classic dress? |
37821 | Where did you get that beautiful dress?" |
37821 | Who and what are you? |
37821 | Why not go to the Hall? |
37821 | Why, then, an investigating committee? |
37821 | Will thou yet take all, Galilean? |
37821 | Would it never come to an end-- this interview between the man she loved and a woman she despised? |
37821 | Would not such action serve to encourage all discontent to take the shape of riot and revolt? |
37821 | You are a lawyer, are you not? |
37821 | _ Is_ she going to accept the mission or marry Chairo? |
37821 | _ You_ will believe this, but who else will?" |
37821 | and turning to me, added,"Is n''t it?" |
37821 | said Ariston,"And Shakespeare a play- actor?" |
31373 | Are these girls really Americans at heart? 31373 Are you quite sure,"said Fillmore Flagg,"that her father is dead?" |
31373 | At this point, it is pertinent to propound the following questions: If this is a Republic? 31373 But, says the objector, are not these mostly alkali lands? |
31373 | Can a Josiah Strong answer these questions? 31373 Can we teach politics to school children, as a part of our religious duties? |
31373 | Did I understand you to say that these immense discs, these mammoth, weed- scorching mirrors, were made here at Solaris? 31373 Does this exhibit appeal to you as a reasonable basis for the accumulated savings named in your questions?" |
31373 | First, I wish you would tell me just what is represented by the one thousand shares of capital stock, of the Solaris Farm Company? |
31373 | How can this happen? 31373 How do you do, Mr. Flagg? |
31373 | How is it possible, you ask, to keep perfect control of such a large issue of scrip, with a certainty that all in use is genuine? 31373 How much land do you devote to cotton growing? |
31373 | In this connection, let me ask: Have you ever had a seance with a medium? 31373 My dear Fillmore,"said Fern,"How are you impressed by my scheme for carrying out the chosen plans? |
31373 | Now Fillmore,said Fern,"I wish to ask, what have you been doing in the department of experimental farming?" |
31373 | Speaking of wages,said George Gaylord,"did I understand you to say, that all of the co- operators at Solaris receive the same pay?" |
31373 | Tell me, George,said Fillmore Flagg,"how have you fared since we parted, and what are your ambitions and plans for the future?" |
31373 | Tell me, Mr. Flagg, why are you so much interested in that advertisement which came to me so unceremoniously yesterday? 31373 What are the best conditions for mind unfoldment? |
31373 | What is a trust? 31373 What is that question, which so completely absorbs the attention of these people? |
31373 | What think you, Mr. Gaylord? 31373 Where can these conditions be found? |
31373 | Why can these land monopolists afford to wait so long? 31373 Will it pay?" |
31373 | You ask how can this coming disaster be averted? 31373 You ask what disposition has been made of this money? |
31373 | You ask, what disposition is made of the salaries of such co- operators as are elected to fill town and county offices? 31373 ''How to keep the farm lands of America in the hands of the native farmers of this and the coming generations? 31373 A last word to my readers: Do you wish to join forces with the humanitarians? 31373 Am I worthy of such a blessing? 31373 An overwhelming answer in the affirmative, from every point of view, to the question, does it pay to be unselfish? 31373 And again, tell me why you are so moved and determined to better the conditions of farm life? 31373 And if the consolidating business, is so good and so profitable for the trusts? 31373 And now, my dear Fillmore, since I have, so to speak, brought myself up to date for your benefit, may I ask for a similar service on your part? |
31373 | Are we waking or dreaming? |
31373 | Are you satisfied, my dear girl? |
31373 | Aside from my speculative fancies, I do wonder what the future has in store for him? |
31373 | At what age do you propose to retire the active workers?" |
31373 | But are you quite sure the facts will fully warrant your conclusions? |
31373 | But tell me, if I may be permitted to ask, who was the wonderful genius who first conceived and planned the building of this imposing line of arches? |
31373 | But what about the father? |
31373 | By the measure of immortality, who shall attempt to describe or limit the destiny of a human soul? |
31373 | By what remarkable process had she, in so short a time, achieved such commanding heights of intellectual and spiritual greatness? |
31373 | Can I add anything more convincing?" |
31373 | Can it be possible that I am to feel and know this by direct communication with them?" |
31373 | Can it be possible, that the pulsing energy of the protoplasmic life of the tree, is identical with that of man, and all other forms of cosmic life? |
31373 | Can it be possible, that they are farm laborers?" |
31373 | Can such a rotten society ever become a safe foundation for the government of a true republic? |
31373 | Can they be made to grow wheat, and thus increase the bread supply? |
31373 | Can we agree to accept new definitions, for the disputed religious terms, which we have been discussing?" |
31373 | Can you accept my proposal?" |
31373 | Can you evolve anything from your inner consciousness in answer to these questions?" |
31373 | Can you suggest anything that may be of assistance to me?" |
31373 | Can you suggest anything towards its solution?" |
31373 | Did she seem to blame you so very much, for not answering her mother''s letter?" |
31373 | Do the poor people, the farmers, the country land owners, and the working men, join in these shoutings? |
31373 | Do these arrangements suit your convenience? |
31373 | Do they meet your entire approval?" |
31373 | Do they represent the women of our land? |
31373 | Do you find homesickness among the colonists, a frequent cause of discontent?" |
31373 | Do you find it so?" |
31373 | Do you know anything about the laws that control and govern mediumship? |
31373 | Do you really consider it so very important?" |
31373 | Do you remember the promise I made to you, on the night of my transition? |
31373 | Do you think I am likely to prove a pupil worthy of his teacher?" |
31373 | Do you think a general introduction of co- operative farming, will produce equally successful results elsewhere?" |
31373 | Do you think she is really in love with Mr. Flagg? |
31373 | Do you think this road- building fever, will continue to spread with the growth of the movement?" |
31373 | Do you think you are strong enough to- day, for another mobile excursion over the farm?" |
31373 | Does each great throb of the planetary heart, re- energize and move in unison, the protoplasmic centers of all forms of life? |
31373 | Does the plan proposed meet your approval by offering satisfactory answers to your questions?" |
31373 | Has anything happened to her? |
31373 | Have I faithfully kept my promise?" |
31373 | Have you been interested to any extent in reading the all- comprehensive philosophy which mediumship demonstrates?" |
31373 | Have your objections, been satisfactorily answered? |
31373 | He heard these words:"Fern, my daughter, will you tell this gentleman who I am?" |
31373 | How can I ever properly thank you, my noble benefactor, for your great goodness to me; for your supreme confidence in my integrity? |
31373 | How can our people be saved from such a hopeless future? |
31373 | How can such expensive things be made, for a price that would allow so many to be used?" |
31373 | How can the Fairy Queen explain? |
31373 | How can this be accomplished? |
31373 | How can you answer that argument, from the co- operative standpoint?" |
31373 | How could he have an interview with her father, if Mrs. Bainbridge was correct in saying that Mr. Fenwick had been dead for several years? |
31373 | How did you manage to make it possible?" |
31373 | How do you manage to make it profitable to grow such a quantity of perishable things?" |
31373 | How has co- operative methods, affected its culture as a paying crop?" |
31373 | How has the example of Solaris farm, affected the industrial, social, and political situation in this town and county?" |
31373 | How is it, that the fields and cultivated grounds at Solaris, are so free from weeds?" |
31373 | How many arms, have the number fives? |
31373 | How many bodies, have the number nines? |
31373 | How many ears, have the number sevens? |
31373 | How many eyes, have the number eights? |
31373 | How many feet, have the number twos? |
31373 | How many fingers and toes, has number one?" |
31373 | How many hands, have the number fours? |
31373 | How many legs, have the number threes? |
31373 | How many mouths, have the number sixes? |
31373 | How many noses, have the number tens? |
31373 | How much longer do you propose to remain here?" |
31373 | How to help them to help themselves?'' |
31373 | How will you dispose of it? |
31373 | How, and when shall we commence the plan making?" |
31373 | How, can you ever forgive me? |
31373 | I cried,''How can I do this work alone? |
31373 | I do wonder in what peculiar capacity you are to act, and who your real employer is to be? |
31373 | I see our friends returning from the lake, will you help me to spread the lunch?" |
31373 | I trust that you feel encouraged to go forward hopefully with the work?" |
31373 | If so, what are your plans and what have you been doing towards working out this puzzling question?" |
31373 | If so, what name shall I choose for it? |
31373 | If the people are the government, and the government is the people? |
31373 | In its formation what method shall I use? |
31373 | Is it a matter of wonder, that he unhesitatingly accorded to them, the distinction of being sacred? |
31373 | Is it not a most beautiful illustration, of the power of spirits to co- operate with mortals?" |
31373 | Is it not almost like a miracle?" |
31373 | Is it not one affecting the vital interests of humanity to a marvelous extent?" |
31373 | Is it then, under the circumstances, any wonder that the farmers''sons should become dissatisfied with the occupation of their birth? |
31373 | Is it wise, to devote so much time to teaching politics; and to commence this teaching with children so young? |
31373 | Is she here?" |
31373 | Is that to be postponed until we have finished the preliminary work, which you have outlined?" |
31373 | It is then that I ask of my soul: What am I? |
31373 | May I also congratulate you, on having so wisely chosen a husband, who is in every way worthy? |
31373 | May I hope, Miss Fenwick, that you will kindly consent to become my teacher in this new school of wonderful phenomena and spiritual law? |
31373 | May we hope that you both can come with us?" |
31373 | May we not make that co- operation more effective, by a closer study of the conditions that prevail, and of the laws which govern spirit life?" |
31373 | Must the sons and daughters of the farms of this republic come to the bitter heritage of such a life? |
31373 | Now that her studies were finished and her plans perfected, why not send for him to come to Fenwick Hall for a week''s vacation? |
31373 | Premising that my theory is true, how can you manage this matter at Solaris, in order to avoid trouble?" |
31373 | Question: Shall this society take the form of a club? |
31373 | Shall we not do well, if we devote a generous share of our honeymoon to the making, development and perfection of these plans?" |
31373 | Shall we walk through now?" |
31373 | Tell me, Fillmore, does the acceptance and advocacy of this view of the relations existing between labor and society, make one a socialist?" |
31373 | Tell me, is this the beginning of some reign of enchantment? |
31373 | Tell me; how is it possible for so large a sum to be saved in such a short time?" |
31373 | That he had been swallowed up by the sea? |
31373 | That the shipwreck had really occurred?" |
31373 | The culmination of love''s dream? |
31373 | To government of both state and nation? |
31373 | To what piece of good fortune, do I owe this unexpected visit? |
31373 | Was it possible that spiritual unfoldment alone, could confer such marvelous power? |
31373 | Were the desires, the ideas and the methods in conjunctive harmony with planetary evolution? |
31373 | Were you there, Fillmore?" |
31373 | What additional results, do you claim for the system?" |
31373 | What additional work, has Gertrude Gerrish planned for the club members?" |
31373 | What are these buildings, and for what purpose are they used?" |
31373 | What are those insects, and how did you manage to destroy them?" |
31373 | What atonement can I ever make, for the shame, the humiliation, the suffering, which I have brought into your life?'' |
31373 | What can I do? |
31373 | What do you think of it so far?" |
31373 | What does it mean? |
31373 | What has become of these values? |
31373 | What has she been doing with her magical wand to produce such delicious perfume; such entrancing music?" |
31373 | What have I done? |
31373 | What have you to tell me about stirpiculture, as a part of the co- operative farm movement?" |
31373 | What is the result? |
31373 | What miracle have you wrought for me, my precious one, that I am so happy? |
31373 | What of our coming conference with your father, Fennimore Fenwick? |
31373 | What problem in life so knotty that she could not solve? |
31373 | What shall I do? |
31373 | What sweet guardian spirit guides my life, that I should be made so exceedingly happy by the priceless love of such a beautiful woman? |
31373 | What then will happen to society? |
31373 | What then would have happened to our workers, the basic units of our government? |
31373 | What think you of these results?" |
31373 | What think you, Fillmore?" |
31373 | What think you, friend Gaylord?" |
31373 | What treatment may unorganized, unprotected labor, expect from this system? |
31373 | When you heard the voice from the trumpet, how could you feel so sure it was your father speaking? |
31373 | Where now is the injustice of equal wages? |
31373 | Where then, in the economy of nature, is there room or use for the doctrine of total depravity? |
31373 | Who shall say? |
31373 | Who so capable and so desirable as Fillmore Flagg? |
31373 | Why is it that these things have not been done before?" |
31373 | Why must this prove true? |
31373 | Why not change it for the co- operative system? |
31373 | Why not? |
31373 | Why not? |
31373 | Why should the business of the United States, support such an army of banks? |
31373 | Why should they live only to suffer? |
31373 | Why should they? |
31373 | Why, should it not own and operate the railroads, the canals, the shipping, the mines, the forests, and all other industries? |
31373 | Why, should not the government, own and run this giant central bank? |
31373 | Why? |
31373 | Will he ever reach that room? |
31373 | Will the lovely face of Fern Fenwick be the first to greet him? |
31373 | Will you be seated in the smaller chair near it? |
31373 | Will you do me the favor of considering yourself as pledged from this moment to take up my work? |
31373 | Will you not?" |
31373 | With the aid of such a matchless woman, how could he fail in the work before him? |
31373 | With this lesson before us, how can we hesitate or falter in our efforts to successfully carry forward this important work? |
31373 | Would he ever again experience another week so full of unalloyed happiness? |
31373 | Would it not be infinitely better, than to allow the government to be swallowed by one monster trust?" |
31373 | Would they dare to do such a thing?" |
31373 | You are perfectly satisfied with the arrangement, are you not?" |
31373 | You ask to what extent will the work affect the destiny of woman? |
31373 | and how were its smooth, worn sides so systematically engraved?" |
31373 | how formed? |
31373 | imagine for them, a purpose in life more noble or more worthy?" |
31373 | whence came this stranger rock? |
7401 | A little while ago you told me that you loved me: has that feeling faded so soon, or do you take any pleasure in wounding those you love? |
7401 | Ah, my daughter,he said with a smile,"shall I guess what has inspired you to- day? |
7401 | And after you have told her, Edra, shall you make known her reply to me? |
7401 | And are there no more of them-- have you told me the names of_ all_ the great people you have ever known or heard of? |
7401 | And do you love me, Yoletta? |
7401 | And do you not know that you have offended me? |
7401 | And have you ever undergone that sad punishment of being shut up by yourself for many days, Yoletta? |
7401 | And if you know that,I pleaded,"why do you not now impart the knowledge that can make me whole? |
7401 | And is it not sweet to kiss when you love? 7401 And seriously, honestly, you are thirty- one years old?" |
7401 | And when did this happen? |
7401 | And why do you look so sad? |
7401 | And you, my darling, how long is it since you closed those sweet eyelids that seem so heavy? |
7401 | Are you alone so ignorant of these things that you speak of building and of pulling down a house? |
7401 | Are you happier now? |
7401 | Are you not, then, able to read-- have you been taught absolutely nothing? |
7401 | Are you, then, going to condemn me without hearing me speak, or telling me anything about it? 7401 Are you? |
7401 | But do you know, Yoletta, that you have not said anything about them? 7401 But she was a mother, Smith, do you not understand? |
7401 | But surely your name is Smith? |
7401 | But the trees of the forest, to which you compare a house, spring from seed, do they not? 7401 But why do you care so much for me?" |
7401 | But why has she that strange, haunting expression on her face? 7401 Can you not read the letters?" |
7401 | Can you tell me,I said pleasantly,"what is the name of your nearest town or city? |
7401 | Come with me to her now: if you feel like that, she will be kind to you-- how should it be otherwise? |
7401 | Dear mother, may I say something? |
7401 | Did I not tell you so? 7401 Did you know that?" |
7401 | Do you know that I am enjoying two distinct pleasures at one and the same time? |
7401 | Do you mean to say,she answered,"that you do not know I have a mother-- that there is a mother of the house?" |
7401 | Do you need to ask, Yoletta? 7401 Do you not know that you are giving me pain?" |
7401 | Do you not know-- can you not guess? 7401 Do you not not know, sweetest, why I kiss you in that way? |
7401 | Do you not remember going to sleep on my breast? |
7401 | Do you not then know that it is unlawful to entertain such a thought as you have expressed? |
7401 | Do you see how badly it is colored? 7401 Do you think that you will be able to teach me to sing also?" |
7401 | Do you wonder why I smile? |
7401 | Does it never happen that a house is overthrown by some natural force-- by floods, or subsidence of the earth, or is destroyed by lightning or fire? |
7401 | Edra? 7401 Europa? |
7401 | Forgive you, my daughter? 7401 Have I made another mistake?" |
7401 | Have I? 7401 Have you any doubts on the subject?" |
7401 | Have you indeed? |
7401 | Have you never seen any like them before? |
7401 | Have you nothing more to ask? |
7401 | Have you nothing to tell me? |
7401 | How can I tell you?--how could you imagine it if I were to tell you? |
7401 | How can you love any one more than that, Smith? |
7401 | How should I know, Yoletta? |
7401 | I am so sorry I hurt you, Yoletta-- may I call you Yoletta? |
7401 | I have not heard you address any one as mother; besides, how is one to know anything in a strange place unless he is told? |
7401 | If I bind myself to work one year,said I,"shall I have to wait until the end of that time before I get the clothes?" |
7401 | If you know,said I,"that I am grieving for Yoletta, can you not also guess why I hesitate and hide my face from you?" |
7401 | Is it a statue of some one who lived in this house? |
7401 | Is there any other person dearer to your heart than I am? |
7401 | Is there no decay, then, of the materials composing a house? |
7401 | It is very pretty work-- may I look at it? |
7401 | May I explain my meaning? |
7401 | May I kiss the other cheek now? |
7401 | May I put it to some useful purpose-- may I do what I like with it? |
7401 | May I read to you from this book? |
7401 | May I sit down near you? |
7401 | Mine for ever, without a doubt, darling? |
7401 | Must you go? |
7401 | My daughter, tell me how and why you did this? |
7401 | No; why is it? 7401 Oh no; what do you mean, Smith?" |
7401 | Oh yes, quite different-- have you never looked at yourself? 7401 Oh"--she laughed--"do you think it will be so pleasant sitting by me here? |
7401 | Oh, I can not tell you how glad; but am I not here in your arms to show it? 7401 Oh, Smith, can you not guess so simple a thing?" |
7401 | Oh, Smith, how do you know? |
7401 | Oh, how dark it is-- where am I? |
7401 | Oh, may I? |
7401 | Once I thought that you only of all in the house would never love me: what has changed your feelings towards me, for I know that they have changed? |
7401 | Surely,I said,"you have heard of such cities as Paris, Vienna, Rome, Athens, Babylon, Jerusalem?" |
7401 | Tell me why, Edra? |
7401 | Tell me, Yoletta, who is this? |
7401 | Tell me, child,he said, putting his hand on her head, and regarding her with misty eyes,"who shall attend you in your seclusion?" |
7401 | The words? |
7401 | Was he your father? |
7401 | Well, listen for one moment, and tell me how long does a year last? |
7401 | What I meant to ask was, will you let me kiss you where I like-- on your chin, for instance, or just where I like? |
7401 | What are you thinking of, Yoletta, that you look so serious? |
7401 | What do I mean? 7401 What do you mean by that? |
7401 | What do you mean, Edra? 7401 What is it that you wish?" |
7401 | What is it you wish to say to me? |
7401 | What is the matter, Smith, you seem ill? |
7401 | What is the rainbow lily? |
7401 | What made you have those feelings? |
7401 | What shall I do alone?. |
7401 | What, then, do you mean by a city? |
7401 | What, then, happened to earth, and how long did that undreaming slumber last from which I woke to find things so altered? 7401 Where have you been all the evening, for you were not at supper?" |
7401 | Who are all these people you have named? |
7401 | Why are you troubled, Smith- have I said anything to hurt you? |
7401 | Why did you not come in to supper, Smith? |
7401 | Why do you kiss my hand? |
7401 | Why do you kiss my mouth in that violent way? |
7401 | Why is green the principal color in my clothes, when no other person in the house wears more than a very little of it? |
7401 | Why is your mind troubled, my son? |
7401 | Why, look at the color of my eyes and skin-- would this green tint be suitable for me to wear? |
7401 | Why, that is my name-- what else should you call me? |
7401 | Why? |
7401 | Will you lead the singing? |
7401 | Will you not tell me? |
7401 | Will you sing something now? |
7401 | Will you sit by me here, resting your head on me, and sleep a little now? |
7401 | Would you really do that, Yoletta? |
7401 | Yes, certainly-- did you not know that? |
7401 | Yes, often; for what other punishment is there? 7401 Yes; but is that strange-- are not all people beautiful?" |
7401 | Yes; but oh, why did you not wake me sooner? 7401 Yes? |
7401 | You ask me, How, then, do we know this thing? 7401 Your singing? |
7401 | A month is called a year with you, and that would make you, let me see-- how much is twelve times thirty- one? |
7401 | A painful silence ensued, then, lifting her tear- stained face, she said:"Oh father, what must my punishment be?" |
7401 | And all for what, since it pleases not heaven nor accords with our own desires? |
7401 | And are you not glad to be loved?" |
7401 | And if a whole year''s labor was only sufficient to pay for a suit of clothing, how many years of toil would be required to win Yoletta''s hand? |
7401 | And then, remembering Yoletta''s words on the hills, I added:"Do you not know of more than one kind of love?" |
7401 | And was she not a being of a higher order than myself? |
7401 | And were these people all really brothers and sisters? |
7401 | And who will then inherit our place? |
7401 | And why do you not kiss that?" |
7401 | And, most important of all, can you present it in a narrative or romance which will enable me to pass an idle hour not disagreeably? |
7401 | As she made no reply, I added somewhat lamely:"May I-- keep on holding it?" |
7401 | At length the old gentleman, pointing to the gold pieces, said:"What are these?" |
7401 | At length, to my surprise, the father, who had been regarding me for some time, said:"Will you lead, my son?" |
7401 | But am I so different from you all?" |
7401 | But ca n''t you answer me-- who were they, and what did they do? |
7401 | But how had mortals always fared when they aspired to mate with celestials? |
7401 | But how was I to lead up to it? |
7401 | But the statue-- when was that made and placed here?" |
7401 | But what have these small pieces of metal to do with the question of your garments? |
7401 | But what in the name of goodness was I to say to this beautiful woman who was sitting by me? |
7401 | But why do you turn your face from me?" |
7401 | But you have not said one word about my singing-- did you not like it?" |
7401 | But-- but do n''t you think you can draw it mild? |
7401 | Can you bear me in your arms?" |
7401 | Can you explain to us what you mean by dressing in accordance with the fashion?" |
7401 | Can you not understand that-- has no man ever loved you with a love like that, my sister?" |
7401 | Did she not understand my meaning now-- had not my words brought back some sweet and sorrowful memory? |
7401 | Did you not see that we were astonished and grieved at your silence when you came, and we waited in vain for you to speak?" |
7401 | Do I look nice; and will you like me any better now?" |
7401 | Do tell me what you mean, Yoletta?" |
7401 | Do you know what love is, darling? |
7401 | Do you love me a thousand times more than any one else in the world?" |
7401 | Do you not know what that means?" |
7401 | Do you not think I love you enough? |
7401 | Do you not understand that?" |
7401 | Do you remember that evening on the hill, when you vexed me with questions, and I could not understand your words? |
7401 | For are not all houses, like the forest of trees, the human race, the world we live in, eternal?" |
7401 | Good heavens, what does it mean? |
7401 | Have you lived in the moon, Smith, that I have to tell you these things?" |
7401 | He inclined his head and said,"Yes?" |
7401 | How old are you, dear?" |
7401 | How would she look after that long seclusion? |
7401 | How, then, am I to pay for them if all I possess is not considered of any value?" |
7401 | How, then, do we know this thing? |
7401 | I exclaimed, sitting bolt upright on my straw bed,"am I a rational being or an inebriated donkey, or what, to have consented to such a proposal? |
7401 | I know it is awfully rude to inquire a lady''s age, but what am I to do? |
7401 | I suppose you have heard the names of Napoleon, Wellington, Nelson, Dante, Luther, Calvin, Bismarck, Voltaire?" |
7401 | I was never good at guessing, but the result of my cogitations was one happy idea-- to ask Yoletta whether she had a living mother or not? |
7401 | Is it not so, Yoletta?" |
7401 | Is it sinful to wish for any adornments other than wisdom and sobriety, a meek and loving spirit, good works, and other things of the kind? |
7401 | Is it strange you should have a taste common to all human beings?" |
7401 | It almost frightens me to ask another question, but do tell me how old your father is?" |
7401 | It is just the contrary-- how many twelves in thirty- one? |
7401 | Nevertheless we can not suppress all curiosity, or help asking one another, What is your dream-- your ideal? |
7401 | Not that I care two straws about the question myself, and I only hope they''ll never get it; but then I think it is so illogical-- don''t you?" |
7401 | Now I wonder whether the matter will be complicated with Leah-- that is, Edra? |
7401 | Oh, Smith, do you love me so much?" |
7401 | Oh, dear father, will you forgive me?" |
7401 | One day, after looking long and earnestly into my face, said my gentle teacher to me;"Do you know that you are changed? |
7401 | Pale, and sad too perhaps; and her sweet, soulful eyes-- oh, would I now see in them that new light for which I had watched and waited so long? |
7401 | Shall I tell you why? |
7401 | Shall I tell you----""My face? |
7401 | Tell me if this is not so?" |
7401 | Tell me, have I not done as you wished, and given myself to you, body and soul? |
7401 | The old man looked at me with a grave smile-- that smile was fast becoming intolerable-- and said:"Are you so fond of honey, Smith? |
7401 | Then, with a half- puzzled smile, he added:"How could you possibly know unless you were told? |
7401 | This being so, why am I not overwhelmed at the thought of it? |
7401 | Was it a very contemptible ambition on my part? |
7401 | Was she unhappy?" |
7401 | What can you do in return for the garments you are anxious to possess? |
7401 | What had I to give in return for such a boon as that? |
7401 | What is money?" |
7401 | What lie have I told?" |
7401 | What was the meaning of this condition? |
7401 | What were their names, and what did they do to those who loved them-- can''t you tell me?" |
7401 | What would become of me, and of all those bright dreams of happiness, if she were to die? |
7401 | What you have told me has made me very happy-- what more can I wish to know?" |
7401 | Where were those talents now? |
7401 | Who has suffered like me in the house? |
7401 | Who is that strange- looking man watching us from behind the bushes?" |
7401 | Why ca n''t I forget its miserable customs, or, at any rate, stick to my own resolution to hold my tongue about them?" |
7401 | Why is this?" |
7401 | Why was this large family-- twenty- two members present, besides some absent pilgrims, as they are called-- composed only of adults? |
7401 | Will it ever vanish, like a mere phantom-- a wolf of the brain-- or will it come nearer and more near, to spring upon and rend me at the last? |
7401 | Will you kindly tell me Edra''s age?" |
7401 | Would it always be so-- would my heart consume itself to ashes, and kindle no fire in hers? |
7401 | Would it always be thus-- would she continue to embrace me, and speak words that simulated passion while no such feeling touched her heart? |
7401 | Would it not have been strange if I had not felt extremely unhappy?" |
7401 | Would not that be better than this cure-- this calm contentment held out to me? |
7401 | You love me also, though not with so great a love; but we_ do_ love each other, Smith, and you can confide in me?" |
7401 | You love your people with one kind of love, but me with a different love-- is it not so?" |
7401 | do you know what you are saying?" |
7401 | how far it is from this place, and how I can get there?" |
7401 | or have you only that general knowledge of the various arts which would enable you to assist the more skilled in preparing materials?" |
7401 | that was a vain dream, I could not be deceived by it; for who can say to the demon of passion in him, thus far shalt thou go and no further? |
6424 | About that woman? |
6424 | All your population? |
6424 | Am I so like you? |
6424 | And exactly the same thing happened to both of you? |
6424 | And it has succeeded? |
6424 | And it''s going on? |
6424 | And now, what is forbidden? |
6424 | And now,I said,"have n''t we got very nearly to the end of your prohibitions? |
6424 | And the Chinaman? |
6424 | And the Rule? |
6424 | And the women do this? |
6424 | And then? |
6424 | And then? |
6424 | And you do n''t want to know how I got here? |
6424 | And you found yourselves suddenly on a mountain side? 6424 And you want to talk to me about it instead of listening to me?" |
6424 | Another world-- eh? 6424 Beauty? |
6424 | Both lost? |
6424 | But are n''t they a power? |
6424 | But how could I go back to my laboratory, mixed classes with young ladies, you know, after a thing like that? 6424 But what has this,"he asks,"to do with her?" |
6424 | But you spoke? |
6424 | But you would not like,he cried in horror,"your daughter to marry a Chinaman or a negro?" |
6424 | But, then-- where is the incentive----? |
6424 | By the Oberalp? |
6424 | Climbers, I presume? |
6424 | Do n''t you think that rather more beautiful than-- say-- our National Gallery? |
6424 | Do n''t you worry about losing your way? |
6424 | Do you mean elope with her? |
6424 | Do you mean to say neither of you know your own numbers? |
6424 | Do you mind,I say to this official,"telling us some more about ourselves?" |
6424 | Do you realise quite,I ask,"that within a week we shall face our Utopian selves and measure something of what we might have been?" |
6424 | Do you recall the Zermatt valley? |
6424 | Free? |
6424 | Have you ever found anyone seriously ill without doctors and medicine about? 6424 How do you know? |
6424 | How? |
6424 | I expect there was fighting? |
6424 | I say,I plunge,"what do you think of me? |
6424 | I suppose you''ve got your thumbs? |
6424 | Is the Woman''s Rule a sumptuary law as well as a regimen? 6424 It is good?" |
6424 | It''s queer, is n''t it? 6424 Need it go on?" |
6424 | No money? |
6424 | Not up from the lake? |
6424 | Nothing better to do? |
6424 | Saw her? |
6424 | Suppose she breaks the Rule afterwards? |
6424 | That is the Rule for your earthly orders? |
6424 | The Furka? |
6424 | The mountains? |
6424 | Then what are they after? |
6424 | There''s no chance of anyone overtaking you? |
6424 | Twenty- one? 6424 Well?" |
6424 | Well? |
6424 | Well? |
6424 | Were n''t you listening to me? |
6424 | What are your numbers? |
6424 | What do we know of the beauty they replace? 6424 What do you mean?" |
6424 | What else can we do? |
6424 | What else may not the samurai do? |
6424 | What is the good of reckoning... might have beens? |
6424 | What is the matter, madam? |
6424 | What is the matter? |
6424 | What is the matter? |
6424 | What is yours? |
6424 | What would you advise me to do? |
6424 | What? |
6424 | What? |
6424 | What? |
6424 | When shall we start? |
6424 | Where am I? |
6424 | Where are your papers? |
6424 | Where is the train for London? |
6424 | Where? |
6424 | Which building? |
6424 | Who in the name of Galton and Bertillon,one fancies Utopia exclaiming,"are_ you_?" |
6424 | Who is in this world? |
6424 | Who knows what will come in sight round the bend of the valley there? 6424 Why ca n''t they get away? |
6424 | Why should n''t it do? |
6424 | Why should they be? |
6424 | Wot does Cham''lain_ si_? |
6424 | Yes,said my double;"in Utopia we who are samurai die better than that.... Is that how your great men die?" |
6424 | Yes? |
6424 | You came up out of the Ticino valley? |
6424 | You do n''t believe that? |
6424 | You have come far? |
6424 | You have n''t any doubt left? |
6424 | You have no changing fashions? |
6424 | You live at times in a house? |
6424 | You mean? |
6424 | You say_ We_,said I, with the first glimmering of a new idea,"but_ you_ do n''t participate?" |
6424 | You think of death? |
6424 | ... incitements to disarrange? |
6424 | ... the balance of population?" |
6424 | A few hints----?" |
6424 | A natural death is better than an artificial life, surely? |
6424 | And my friend?" |
6424 | And the clerk''s face----? |
6424 | And then, am I to be accused of poverty? |
6424 | And this? |
6424 | And why?" |
6424 | Are they an hereditary caste, a specially educated order, an elected class? |
6424 | Are they not very like the people one knows? |
6424 | At the sight of him she asks with a note of relief,"What am I to do, sir, here?" |
6424 | B.,"he says, slowly,"little a, nine four seven, I_ think_----""Do n''t you know?" |
6424 | Beyond that, what conditions should a marriage contract in Utopia involve? |
6424 | But are n''t there people who can not pass examinations?" |
6424 | But are you sure you have n''t your papers or numbers? |
6424 | But he''s---- How did I know he was the sort of man a disciplined world has a use for?" |
6424 | But is n''t there a vow of Chastity?" |
6424 | But now you think better of a modern Utopia? |
6424 | But suppose that in no district in the world is there work within the capacity of this particular man? |
6424 | But the others; what would a saner world do with them? |
6424 | But what else is there to do, unless you kill? |
6424 | But what is your_ definition_( stress) of artificial? |
6424 | But what sort of language would we have the world speak, if we were told the miracle of Babel was presently to be reversed? |
6424 | But where are we drifting? |
6424 | But why was he intruded? |
6424 | But with regard to a certain petting of myself----? |
6424 | But wrinkled age? |
6424 | CHAPTER THE SECOND Concerning Freedoms Section 1 Now what sort of question would first occur to two men descending upon the planet of a Modern Utopia? |
6424 | Do I mean we are never to view the promised land again except through a foreground of fellow- travellers? |
6424 | Do you realise just where the propositions necessary to a modern Utopia are taking us? |
6424 | Does he realise this is indeed Utopia? |
6424 | Does my friend look like hopping from India to the Saint Gotthard at one hop? |
6424 | Does that render their association upon terms of equality in a World State impossible? |
6424 | Eh? |
6424 | Eh?" |
6424 | For all that, are not our dresses as beautiful as yours?" |
6424 | Have I yet in Utopia set eyes on a bald head? |
6424 | He has gone wrong on earth, no doubt, has failed and degenerated, but what was it sent him wrong? |
6424 | He was a great red- faced man, with fiery hair, a noisy, intolerant maker of enemies, with a tender heart-- and he was one of the samurai?" |
6424 | How are they made so? |
6424 | How can one think of him as bad? |
6424 | How could we live and where could we live? |
6424 | How did I get from Norway hither? |
6424 | How far will such conditions be prescribed? |
6424 | How will the work of this planet be done? |
6424 | I had a thought, and added,"Do n''t they sometimes, well-- take a good deal of care, dressing their hair?" |
6424 | I mean-- may she dress as she pleases?" |
6424 | I say, cheerfully,"have you heard?" |
6424 | I should ask, and"where?" |
6424 | I should see desirable men approaching me, and I should think;"Now, if I were to speak to_ you_?" |
6424 | I suppose no samurai may bet?" |
6424 | I wonder why it is that to lie securely in bed, with the light out, seems ever the same place, wherever in space one may chance to be? |
6424 | If that is so, what of my Utopia? |
6424 | If they seemed distressed, or if they seemed to think a course right----"... Have I come to Utopia to hear this sort of thing? |
6424 | If you drink no port, then what are walnuts for? |
6424 | In the past ingenious men have speculated on the inquiry,"Which language will survive?" |
6424 | Indeed, should we be in Utopia at all, if we could not talk to everyone? |
6424 | Is he----"he hesitated,"mad?" |
6424 | Is not the suppression of these notes my perpetual effort, my undying despair? |
6424 | Is that any reason why we should propose to preserve it for ever in a condition of tutelage? |
6424 | Is there, however, an all- round inferior race in the world? |
6424 | It''s a scar from the earth-- the sore scar of your past----""And what are we all but scars? |
6424 | It''s so strange to have seen them so recently, and now not to see them at all.... Where have they gone?" |
6424 | Meaning----?" |
6424 | No animal substance inside, no vegetable without;--what could be simpler or more logical? |
6424 | Now did I say anything of the sort? |
6424 | Now what will be the nature of the Utopian contract of matrimony? |
6424 | Now where shall we put this most excellent man? |
6424 | Now, had I come upon a hopeless incompatibility? |
6424 | Or, again, where is the sin in a glass of tawny port three or four times, or it may be five, a year, when the walnuts come round in their season? |
6424 | Our position is so entirely exceptional, so difficult to explain----""What have you been doing?" |
6424 | Perhaps then you will understand----"He shakes his head, and then bursts out with,"What do I want with a double? |
6424 | Section 2 How would things be"different"in the Modern Utopia? |
6424 | Section 2 What prohibitions should we be under, we two Uitlanders in this Utopian world? |
6424 | Section 3 Will a Utopian be free to be idle? |
6424 | Section 4"Is n''t_ that_ reality?" |
6424 | Section 7 How will a great city of Utopia strike us? |
6424 | She was n''t by any chance one of the samurai?" |
6424 | The question of all others of importance to us at present is what do they do with their tramps? |
6424 | The sound birth being assured, does there exist any valid reason for the persistence of the Utopian marriage union? |
6424 | There are scenes and insults----""She told you?" |
6424 | There will be no masking of the lesson;"which do you value most, the wide world of humanity, or this evil trend in you?" |
6424 | Utopia has sound sanitary laws, sound social laws, sound economic laws; what harm are these people going to do? |
6424 | Was his failure inherent, or did some net of cross purposes tangle about his feet? |
6424 | Was the lady looking well?" |
6424 | Was this the reductio ad absurdum of my vision, and must it even as I sat there fade, dissolve, and vanish before my eyes? |
6424 | We are really, you know, explorers, strangers----""But what world do you mean?" |
6424 | We follow the vein, we mine and accumulate our treasure, but who can tell which way the vein may trend? |
6424 | We might have a house in London, but who would call upon us? |
6424 | We prescribe a regimen of food, forbid tobacco, wine, or any alcoholic drink, all narcotic drugs----""Meat?" |
6424 | What are they? |
6424 | What differences from terrestrial conditions will ensue? |
6424 | What do I care if things have been different here? |
6424 | What good was it to trot along the pavement through this noise and tumult of life, pleading Utopia to that botanist? |
6424 | What good would it be to recommend Utopia in this driver''s preoccupied ear? |
6424 | What if instead of that Utopia of vacant ovals we meet relinquished loves here, and opportunities lost and faces as they might have looked to us? |
6424 | What is all my world after?" |
6424 | What is life but a scarring? |
6424 | What is there to keep them together? |
6424 | What is there to prevent a parallel movement of all the civilised Powers in the world towards a common ideal and assimilation? |
6424 | What other device will give a man so great a freedom with so strong an inducement to effort? |
6424 | What reason is there for us to remain casual workmen here, when you allege we are men of position in the world, if there is n''t something wrong? |
6424 | What sorrows? |
6424 | What sort of road would that be? |
6424 | What will be the economics of a modern Utopia? |
6424 | What will their range be, their prohibitions? |
6424 | What, for instance, will Utopia do with Mr. Roosevelt? |
6424 | Where falls the balance of freedoms here? |
6424 | Where in your world have you seen papers like this?" |
6424 | Where, then, is the power of your wealthy man?" |
6424 | Who knows what may happen to us anywhere? |
6424 | Who will these men be? |
6424 | Who, in a really civilised community, would grudge that measure of invasion? |
6424 | Why are you standing up?" |
6424 | Why could not a modern Utopia be discussed without this impersonation-- impersonally? |
6424 | Why do I think of her as dressed in green? |
6424 | Why not stop this dismal grizzling and carry her off?" |
6424 | Why should they not aim at a common literature, and bring their various common laws, their marriage laws, and so on, into uniformity? |
6424 | Why should they not work for a uniform minimum of labour conditions through all their communities? |
6424 | Why should they? |
6424 | Why should we men play the part of bacteria upon the face of our Mother?" |
6424 | Why, once you are rid of them, should you pester criminals to respect an uncongenial standard of conduct? |
6424 | Will they be a caste? |
6424 | Would this new sort of Utopian State, spread to the dimensions of a world, be any less forbidding? |
6424 | Yet still I have my uses, uses that vanish in monotony, and still I must ask why should we bury the talent of these bright sensations altogether? |
6424 | Yet, after all, why should two men be smiled into apathy by the Infinite? |
6424 | You do n''t think I''m an impostor?" |
6424 | You in this decent world have no means of understanding----""No?" |
6424 | You knew him in your world?" |
6424 | You may have to condemn most, but why_ all_? |
6424 | You must have a class of rich, powerful outsiders----""_ Have_ we?" |
6424 | You must seclude, but why should you torment? |
6424 | a race? |
6424 | an organisation in the nature of a Church? |
6424 | he says,"and you scorn these trams of theirs? |
6424 | how far can they be prescribed in a Modern Utopia? |
6424 | says my friend,"and how on earth it reeks and stinks with smoke?" |
6424 | what jars to our preconceptions will he and I receive here? |
6424 | what_ are_ they critical about on earth? |
624 | A woman does not, then, necessarily leave the industrial service on marriage? |
624 | Am I never to know? 624 And is this merely a sample store? |
624 | And what was the motive of these great organizations? |
624 | And, in heaven''s name, who are the public enemies? |
624 | Are credit cards issued to the women just as to the men? |
624 | Are not the schools flooded with young men whose only motive is to avoid work? |
624 | Are the clever workmen content with a plan that ranks them with the indifferent? |
624 | Are the members of the liberal professions eligible to the presidency? 624 Are they France, England, Germany, or hunger, cold, and nakedness? |
624 | Are they not also men? |
624 | Are we not your friends? 624 Are you sure it is not you who are blind?" |
624 | Are you sure,she asked,"that you are quite done with those terrible sensations you had that morning?" |
624 | Bach must be at the keys of that organ; but where is the organ? |
624 | But did not ladies find that very impertinent? |
624 | But does it not come over you as astounding to sit at table with me, seeing who I am? |
624 | But having no control over the labor of their people, or means of hiring it, how can they do anything? |
624 | But how about mere pleasure trips; tours of observation? 624 But how are the prices of foreign goods settled, since there is no competition?" |
624 | But how do you manage it? 624 But how do you recompense these assistants, since you have no money?" |
624 | But how is it with us who stand on this height which they gazed up to? 624 But say there were a thousand shops in a city, hundreds, perhaps, of the same sort, how could even the idlest find time to make their rounds?" |
624 | But what are the balances finally settled with, seeing that you have no money? |
624 | But what if a nation, having a monopoly of some natural product, should refuse to supply it to the others, or to one of them? |
624 | But who defends the accused? |
624 | But why did you put up with such a shockingly inconvenient arrangement when you saw its faults so plainly? |
624 | But with no state legislatures, and Congress meeting only once in five years, how do you get your legislation done? |
624 | But you have at least municipal governments besides the one central authority? |
624 | But,said I,"if the government prints the papers at the public expense, how can it fail to control their policy? |
624 | By the way,said I,"talking of literature, how are books published now? |
624 | Decidedly I shall not,I replied,"but how is it practicable?" |
624 | Decoration Day? |
624 | Did I understand you rightly,I inquired,"that this musical programme covers the entire twenty- four hours? |
624 | Did you only just guess that? 624 Did you suppose that we consider the incapable class we are talking of objects of charity?" |
624 | Did you think I was going to play or sing to you? |
624 | Did you, indeed? |
624 | Do I understand,I said,"that it is a judge who states each side of the case as well as a judge who hears it?" |
624 | Do the waiters, also, volunteer? |
624 | Do you ask what we look for when unnumbered generations shall have passed away? 624 Do you know your genealogy well enough to tell me who your forbears were in the Boston of my day?" |
624 | Do you mean that all the clerks misrepresented their goods in your day? |
624 | Do you mean your memory is gone? |
624 | Do you possibly mean that all have the same share? |
624 | Do you really think it necessary to ask me that? |
624 | Does it indeed seem so to you? |
624 | Does it, indeed, seem so to you? |
624 | Exactly; but what made the strikes so formidable? |
624 | Excuse me,replied my host,"but do you smoke?" |
624 | Had you many to mourn you? |
624 | How about periodicals and newspapers? |
624 | How am I to hear it if I stay at home? |
624 | How are these magistrates selected? |
624 | How came I here? |
624 | How can prices be regulated in a country where there is no competition between buyers or sellers? |
624 | How can that possibly be? |
624 | How can you do that, I should like to know, when no two men''s powers are the same? |
624 | How do you carry on commerce without money? |
624 | How do you feel? |
624 | How do you manage in the thinly settled rural districts? |
624 | How do you manage,I asked,"when the books of any two nations do not balance? |
624 | How happened it,was Dr. Leete''s reply,"that your workers were able to produce more than so many savages would have done? |
624 | How is he chosen? |
624 | How is it,I asked,"that this difference is consistent with the fact that all citizens have the same income?" |
624 | How is the staff of contributors recompensed, since they can not be paid in money? |
624 | How is this class of common laborers recruited? |
624 | How is this distribution managed? |
624 | How, then, do you avoid a revolution every pay day? |
624 | How, then, do you regulate wages? |
624 | I admit the claim of this class to our pity, but how could they who produced nothing claim a share of the product as a right? |
624 | I am to understand, then, that the lame, the blind, the sick, and the impotent, are as well off as the most efficient and have the same income? |
624 | If you do n''t spend your allowance, I suppose it accumulates? |
624 | If you wanted to buy something of your neighbor, could you transfer part of your credit to him as consideration? |
624 | Is it Sunday, then? |
624 | Is not that ruinous to the discipline of the guild, by tempting the candidates to intrigue for the support of the workers under them? |
624 | Is the term of service in this industrial army for life? |
624 | Is there such an arrangement in the room assigned to me? |
624 | It was a good idea, was it not, Mr. West? 624 May I ask how you knew that you might not have found something to suit you better in some of the other stores? |
624 | May I ask of what year? |
624 | Not strange? |
624 | Now, do you know, that seems very curious to me? 624 Of what year?" |
624 | Oh, Mr. West, where have you been? |
624 | On myself? |
624 | On what? |
624 | Only perhaps? |
624 | Pardon me, the 30th of what? |
624 | The army is not allowed to vote for President? |
624 | The clerk has, then, nothing to say about the goods he sells? |
624 | We shall see,replied my companion;"you say that it was May 30th when you went to sleep?" |
624 | Were sidewalk coverings not used at all? |
624 | What are your grounds for believing that the red flag party was subsidized? |
624 | What can I possibly do? |
624 | What certainty can there be that the value of a man''s labor will recompense the nation for its outlay on him? 624 What concern could it possibly be to the clerks whether people bought or not?" |
624 | What do you mean? |
624 | What if you have to spend more than your card in any one year? |
624 | What is that word''menial''? 624 What may this badge be?" |
624 | What should I have done if you had not cared for me? |
624 | When there are more who want to enter a particular trade than there is room for, how do you decide between the applicants? |
624 | When you want a doctor,I asked,"do you simply apply to the proper bureau and take any one that may be sent?" |
624 | When? |
624 | Where am I? |
624 | Where is the clerk? |
624 | Who does determine it, then? |
624 | Who does your house- work, then? |
624 | Who is capable of self- support? |
624 | Who sells you things when you want to buy them? |
624 | Why in the world should it? |
624 | Why on earth should she? 624 Why, last night, of course; I said so, did n''t I? |
624 | Would you like to see her picture? |
624 | Yes, of what year, if you please? 624 You are not sure, then?" |
624 | You do n''t mean that the man who pleads not guilty is thereupon discharged? |
624 | You do not, then, believe that this is the year 2000? |
624 | You have given up the jury system, then? |
624 | You remember your first waking, no doubt,he pursued,"and your surprise when I told you how long you had been asleep?" |
624 | ''What shall I eat and drink, and wherewithal shall I be clothed?'' |
624 | Am I to understand that crime is nowadays looked upon as the recurrence of an ancestral trait?" |
624 | And now can you tell me a little more explicitly when it was that you fell into that sleep, the date, I mean?" |
624 | And were not these others, these unfortunate and crippled brothers whom you cast out, joint inheritors, co- heirs with you? |
624 | Are you strong enough to follow me upstairs?" |
624 | Are you sure that you quite forgive Edith Bartlett for marrying any one else? |
624 | But are you so blind as not to see why they are not enough to make me happy? |
624 | But did they think only of themselves? |
624 | But do you blame me for being curious?" |
624 | But how could I live without service to the world? |
624 | But it is over now, is it not? |
624 | But would you really like to hear some music?" |
624 | By what title does the individual claim his particular share? |
624 | Ca n''t I do something for you?" |
624 | Can you conceive of such a thing as living a hundred years in four days? |
624 | Can you ever forgive us?" |
624 | Can you see how such a thing might be?" |
624 | Can you think of any service constituting a stronger claim on the nation''s gratitude than bearing and nursing the nation''s children? |
624 | Could he take more than a very limited satisfaction, even in a palatial apartment, if the windows on all four sides opened into stable yards? |
624 | Could it be that I was the victim of some sort of conspiracy? |
624 | Did they live in Boston?" |
624 | Did you ever think, Mr. West, that the bank is the heart of the business system? |
624 | Do n''t you care more about what we think of you than what he does who never saw you? |
624 | Do n''t you see that it is because I have been mad enough to love you?" |
624 | Do n''t you see that, however unsatisfactory the first adjustment might be, the mistakes would soon correct themselves? |
624 | Do none of you know what sights the sun and stars look down on in this city, that you can think and talk of anything else? |
624 | Do you find it as complex as you expected?" |
624 | Do you not believe that spirits sometimes come back to the world to fulfill some work that lay near their hearts? |
624 | Do you not know that close to your doors a great multitude of men and women, flesh of your flesh, live lives that are one agony from birth to death? |
624 | Does it also hold of those who can do nothing at all?" |
624 | Finally she whispered,"Had we not better go out now? |
624 | Had the organization of the nation as an industrial unit done away with the states? |
624 | Had they no compassion for fellow beings from whom fortune only distinguished them? |
624 | Have the societies of the Old World also been remodeled?" |
624 | How came I here? |
624 | How can I convince you how different our feeling for you is from what you think?" |
624 | How do you feel?" |
624 | How do you feel?" |
624 | How does he pay his way?" |
624 | How have you disposed of the problem of domestic service? |
624 | How is it that you have so much more?" |
624 | How is the amount of the credit given respectively to the workers in different lines determined? |
624 | How, in the first place, was it conceivable that she should know any secret about me, a stranger from a strange age? |
624 | How, then, are they selected from those who are to serve as farmers and mechanics? |
624 | Hung them all, perhaps, as the anarchists wanted to do in my day?" |
624 | I replied,"when? |
624 | I sat in silence until Edith began to rally me upon my sombre looks, What ailed me? |
624 | I who had lived in those cruel, insensate days, what had I done to bring them to an end? |
624 | If people eat with a spoon that leaks half its contents between bowl and lip, are they not likely to go hungry? |
624 | In the second place, even if she should know such a secret, how account for the agitating effect which the knowledge of it seemed to have upon her? |
624 | Is a man satisfied, merely because he is perfumed himself, to mingle with a malodorous crowd? |
624 | Is n''t it anything to you, that we who know you feel differently? |
624 | Is that also done by the nation?" |
624 | It seems to on this card, certainly; but who is there to listen to music between say midnight and morning?" |
624 | May I ask you when that was?" |
624 | May I not hope so?" |
624 | May I tell my great- grandmother''s picture when I go to my room that you quite forgive her for proving false to you?" |
624 | Or has human nature itself changed, so that no man looks upon his own things but''every man on the things of his neighbor''? |
624 | Really, does n''t it seem a little hard that a person in my position should not be given all the information possible concerning himself?" |
624 | Shall we take dinner at the dining- house to- day?" |
624 | That blue ribbon winding away to the sunset, was it not the sinuous Charles? |
624 | The anguish of those moments, during which my brain seemed melting, or the abjectness of my sense of helplessness, how can I describe? |
624 | The cultured society of the nineteenth century-- what did it consist of but here and there a few microscopic oases in a vast, unbroken wilderness? |
624 | The people who stood looking on with kindling faces,--could it be that the sight had for them no more than but a spectacular interest? |
624 | Then he observed,"And you tell me that even then there was no general recognition of the nature of the crisis which society was nearing? |
624 | There only remained the will, and was any human will strong enough to say to such a weltering sea,"Peace, be still"? |
624 | To make a beginning somewhere, for the subject is doubtless a large one, what solution, if any, have you found for the labor question? |
624 | To tell people what they wanted?" |
624 | Was it because men in those days were angry when girls loved them? |
624 | Was it strange that I did? |
624 | Were these human beings, who could behold the wretchedness of their fellows without so much as a change of countenance? |
624 | Were these serious men I saw about me, or children, who did their business on such a plan? |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | What administrative talent can be equal to determining wisely what trade or business every individual in a great nation shall pursue?" |
624 | What can I say to you? |
624 | What did you do with their share? |
624 | What do you care about him, to let yourself be vexed by anything he said? |
624 | What do you think? |
624 | What does he fancy would be his own experience? |
624 | What does he know of you? |
624 | What had I done to help on the deliverance whereat I now presumed to rejoice? |
624 | What has become of Sawyer?" |
624 | What has happened to me? |
624 | What has happened to you? |
624 | What have you done with the merchants and bankers? |
624 | What is the basis of allotment?" |
624 | What right had I to hail a salvation which reproached me, to rejoice in a day whose dawning I had mocked? |
624 | What should you name as the most prominent feature of the labor troubles of your day?" |
624 | What supreme authority determines what shall be done in every department, so that enough of everything is produced and yet no labor wasted? |
624 | What were these clerks thinking of? |
624 | What would become of personal liberty and dignity under such an arrangement? |
624 | What would you say if I were to introduce you to some very nice people of your own times, whom I am sure you used to be well acquainted with?" |
624 | Where had I been, and what had I seen to make such a dull fellow of me? |
624 | Where have you been? |
624 | Who appoints the editors, if not the government?" |
624 | Who are willing to be domestic servants in a community where all are social equals? |
624 | Who would ever dine, however hungry, if required to eat everything brought on the table? |
624 | Why did they think it such a shame to love any one till they had been given permission? |
624 | Why should the world have supported in utter idleness one who was able to render service? |
624 | Why this effort to induce people to buy? |
624 | Will you never tell me?" |
624 | Will you oblige me by taking a couple of swallows of this mixture? |
624 | Will you tell me how I came to be indebted to your hospitality? |
624 | With what have you stopped your ears that you do not hear these doleful sounds? |
624 | Would n''t it be interesting if I should chance to be able to tell you all about your great- grandfather, for instance?" |
624 | Would not the word, in that connection, fill you with indignation?" |
624 | You have told me in general how your industrial army is levied and organized, but who directs its efforts? |
624 | You inherited it, did you not? |
624 | You were quite done with national religious establishments in the nineteenth century, and did you fancy we had gone back to them?" |
624 | and if so, how are they ranked with those who pursue the industries proper?" |
624 | he repeated,"where is the extension?" |
624 | what must you think of me almost to throw myself in the arms of one I have known but a week? |
624 | you say,"eighteen fifty- seven? |
37270 | ''Cos she''s a celebrated''airess-- see? |
37270 | ''May I have a few hours to consider, sir?'' 37270 And a large photograph?" |
37270 | And about the towers themselves? |
37270 | And as a matter of fact? |
37270 | And do the public- house keepers in England have hands such as yours are? |
37270 | And he went? |
37270 | And he-- Zorilla? |
37270 | And his motive? |
37270 | And how did you know I was at Cerne Hall? |
37270 | And how do you propose to start work? |
37270 | And how? |
37270 | And now, Sir Thomas, are you prepared to accompany me and Mr. Rolston? 37270 And that man?" |
37270 | And the opium? |
37270 | And these two men who were seen to- day in the bar of your public house? |
37270 | And what will you do with it, Smith? |
37270 | And what''ll I do? |
37270 | And you are determined to do that? |
37270 | And you think you will be able to get us a Chinese clientèle? |
37270 | And you? |
37270 | Any reason given, Miss Easey? |
37270 | Anything you like-- but what is it? |
37270 | Are n''t you curious, Power,I said,"to know why I''m doing this extraordinary, unprecedented thing? |
37270 | Are you Sir Thomas Kirby? |
37270 | Are you glad, then? |
37270 | Are you quite sure that it was I who''phoned? |
37270 | But how,I said,"did he and Zorilla ever come here in the first instance? |
37270 | But the circulation is all right? |
37270 | But the men, the staff? |
37270 | But the stuff,I said,"the opium itself, how will you get that?" |
37270 | But what about the great prizefighter, Mulligan? |
37270 | But what has happened? |
37270 | But who in the office would dare to imitate my voice? |
37270 | But, my heart--? |
37270 | Can you do it? |
37270 | Can you explain this, Arthur? |
37270 | Canceled, Miss Easey? |
37270 | Chinese? |
37270 | Did he fall all the way down? 37270 Did you loop the loop over Saint Paul''s or something?" |
37270 | Do I? 37270 Do you know who that is dancing with Juanita?" |
37270 | Ever been in South Germany? |
37270 | Everybody arrived yet, Preston? |
37270 | Father,she said in English-- she had been at school at Eastbourne, and had no trace of Spanish accent--"what is the exact hour that we sail?" |
37270 | From the_ Evening Special_? 37270 Had n''t you better go back to our house, Sir Thomas, and sleep? |
37270 | Hallo, what are you doing here? |
37270 | Hallo, what brings you here? |
37270 | Have you killed him, Bill? |
37270 | He''s from the towers, of course? |
37270 | How could you be the real thing? 37270 How long?" |
37270 | How many words, sir? |
37270 | How on earth do you find these places, Arthur? |
37270 | I have heard everything,he whispered,"but what, what is this?" |
37270 | I have you,she said;"I have father-- what do I care?" |
37270 | I may be permitted to ask-- from whom? |
37270 | I say,she said, after her third cup of tea and fourth egg sandwich,"you''re the_ Evening Special_, are n''t you?" |
37270 | I suppose they have somewhere where they go? |
37270 | I sye,piped a little ragamuffin office boy to his friend,"why does Jewanniter live in the clouds, Willum?" |
37270 | I wo n''t pretend to misunderstand to what you refer,I said,"but what the devil is that to you?" |
37270 | I''d better go and serve, sir, had n''t I? |
37270 | I''m not the Duke of Perth,I said,"but, but, Juanita--?" |
37270 | Is Mr. Morse at home? |
37270 | Is that Sir Thomas? 37270 It''s not in the least your fault, but are you certain the voice was mine?" |
37270 | Look here, Kirby,was the reply,"can you come here at eleven to- night? |
37270 | Look here, you fellows,I said,"about the sacred Brotherhood-- what is it in Spanish?" |
37270 | May I ask to what I owe the pleasure of this visit? |
37270 | May I ask,he said,"what tickled your sense of humor?" |
37270 | May I make a little personal explanation, Sir Thomas? |
37270 | Morse? |
37270 | No one else was hurt? |
37270 | Nobody could get here except through the guard- room, nobody could leave here except through that, could they? |
37270 | Now I tell you what, Stanley,I said, when we had filled our pipes,"in the tower inclosure there''s a whole colony of Chinks, is n''t there?" |
37270 | Oh, Miss Morse? |
37270 | Oh, Sir Thomas,he said,"do you really mean that I am still on the staff?" |
37270 | Oh,I remarked, and I fear my tone was far from pleasant,"you propose to be rather more ceremonious in the case of the lad, Sen?" |
37270 | Our League? |
37270 | Ready for anything? |
37270 | Rolston, did you say the name was, Miss Dewsbury? |
37270 | Seen her? 37270 Shall I do, Preston?" |
37270 | Sir Thomas, can it really be that you do n''t know who I am? |
37270 | Sleep? 37270 Still a member of my staff?" |
37270 | That is your unalterable decision? |
37270 | The envelope? |
37270 | The other Chinese in the large and small rooms, do they know this man is here? |
37270 | Then at closing time, you and I are left alone in the house? |
37270 | Then how do you come here, what''s happened? |
37270 | Then in some of those quaint, old- fashioned towns you have seen the storks nesting on the roofs of the houses? |
37270 | Then we are absolutely alone, you, I, Mr. Rolston, Mr. Morse and his daughter? |
37270 | Then you knew,I asked in a husky voice,"you knew all the time?" |
37270 | They do n''t always live inside that wall? |
37270 | They''re nasty beasts, are n''t they, Sir Thomas? |
37270 | Was ever a woman so high above her lover before? |
37270 | Well then, Lady Brentford--I lowered my voice--"has she come?" |
37270 | Well, how''s our friend? |
37270 | Well, shall we hold the wire? |
37270 | Well? |
37270 | Well? |
37270 | What about me? |
37270 | What are you going to do? |
37270 | What did I say exactly? |
37270 | What did he say to you, Rolston? |
37270 | What did you do yesterday morning? |
37270 | What do you mean? |
37270 | What does it all mean? |
37270 | What does it mean, what on earth does it mean? |
37270 | What have you got to tell me, Pat? |
37270 | What is he doing? |
37270 | What little town by harbor or sea- shore Is empty of its folk this pious morn? |
37270 | What on earth do you mean, what sort of a thing? |
37270 | What on earth do you mean? |
37270 | What on earth is the use,he went on,"of telling you all I know about this man? |
37270 | What on earth''s the matter? |
37270 | What telephone message? |
37270 | What was that? |
37270 | What''s he doing now? |
37270 | What''s that for? |
37270 | What''s the staff beside you, Whistlecraft? |
37270 | What''s this? |
37270 | When shall we meet? |
37270 | Where do you live? |
37270 | Who are you and what do you want? |
37270 | Who are you? |
37270 | Who caught him? |
37270 | Who is he? |
37270 | Who will throw first? |
37270 | Who''s that? |
37270 | Who_ are_ you? |
37270 | Why do you say that? |
37270 | Will you give me a column interview on the front page if I do? |
37270 | Will you help me now, Pu- Yi, will you take a letter from me, will you help me to meet Her, and soon? |
37270 | Yes, Mr. Morse, why? |
37270 | Yes, what is it? 37270 Yes, where are you?" |
37270 | You are not well, my lord? |
37270 | You are quite certain that you wo n''t be discovered? |
37270 | You are sure, Sir Thomas? 37270 You asked questions, I suppose?" |
37270 | You can take a letter from me to her? |
37270 | You have some special information? |
37270 | You know the great wireless towers on Richmond Hill? |
37270 | You leave the decision to me? |
37270 | You mean? |
37270 | You mean? |
37270 | You mean? |
37270 | You really think so, Sir Thomas? |
37270 | You think so, Power? |
37270 | You wo n''t deliver me to the Chinese? |
37270 | You would n''t guess why I''m supposed to come from Yün- Nan, where I actually did spend some years of my childhood? |
37270 | You''re following me, my man, why? 37270 You--?" |
37270 | Your father? |
37270 | _ You mean?_I shouted. |
37270 | A really full day, was n''t it? |
37270 | Am I the real thing or not?" |
37270 | And how is the old''Swan''?" |
37270 | And when have I ever been there so late? |
37270 | Anything special?" |
37270 | Are all your preparations made?" |
37270 | Are you like all the other young men in London to- night?" |
37270 | Are you playing with those toys still, gentlemen?" |
37270 | Arthur, you do n''t mind?" |
37270 | Assuming that was true, that Morse had been seized with this extraordinary whim, how did I stand in the matter? |
37270 | At any rate, if Gideon Morse is really menaced by some great danger, what cleverer trick could he have played? |
37270 | But could you, do you think you possibly could, give me just one more dance later on in the evening?" |
37270 | But why, what do you make of it, have you told any one?" |
37270 | By the way, have n''t you been all the way to Norfolk to find me?" |
37270 | Could she hear the call of my heart? |
37270 | Could you give me the least indication of what you wish to talk to me about?" |
37270 | Did she like being spirited away from all that could make a young girl''s life bright and happy? |
37270 | Do either of you chaps know any Spanish, by the way?" |
37270 | Do you accept these terms?" |
37270 | Do you think you are equal to it?" |
37270 | Do you think you can manage this?" |
37270 | Doubtless you will have gathered my motive? |
37270 | Everything locked up?" |
37270 | First of all, where am I?" |
37270 | Had she been in the plot the whole time? |
37270 | Have you any poker dice, Tom?" |
37270 | Have you anything to say?" |
37270 | He had admitted that he was at the bottom of this colossal enterprise-- was it some Earl''s Court of the air, the last word in amusement catering? |
37270 | Heartache, fear for Juanita, occasional fits of fury at my own inaction and impotence? |
37270 | How are we to make an end of him?" |
37270 | How long has Lord Arthur been in London?" |
37270 | How shall we settle it?" |
37270 | I can trust you absolutely I know, but have n''t you asked yourself what the deuce I''m up to?" |
37270 | I cried, looking round me in amazement--"surely the books--?" |
37270 | I feel as fit and well as ever I did-- why?" |
37270 | I gasped-- why had n''t I thought of Morse before? |
37270 | I said,"and now--?" |
37270 | I saw that secrecy had been necessary, though it had been carried to an extreme degree; but why had he fooled me under the guise of friendship? |
37270 | I suppose that before long you will be able to fulfill your ambitions and retire to China?" |
37270 | I suppose you do n''t propose to expostulate with the lady herself? |
37270 | I thought he was about to go for me, and I stood ready, when"What about me?" |
37270 | I will tell you, though, that your clever little journalist-- what, by the way, did you say his name was?" |
37270 | I''ve done nothing to annoy yer, have I?" |
37270 | If Mr. Morse chooses to live in a certain way of life and''as the money to carry it out, why not let him alone? |
37270 | If he is here, we shall know before to- morrow morning, shall we not?" |
37270 | If not--''"''If not, sir?'' |
37270 | In what force? |
37270 | Is n''t it about time we went?" |
37270 | Is that a little conservatory over there? |
37270 | Is that clear?" |
37270 | It must look out over the Green Park?" |
37270 | Might she not be, even at this moment, a lovelier Juliet, leaning over some gilded gallery and wondering where I was? |
37270 | Morse?" |
37270 | Newby?" |
37270 | No word of what has happened in the last day or two must get down to the public-- isn''t that so?" |
37270 | Nothing was discovered?" |
37270 | Or shall I rush with you to defend the Palace?" |
37270 | Pat shouted,"you''ve seen her too?" |
37270 | Rolston?" |
37270 | See that pavilion over there?'' |
37270 | Shall we say that you leave Richmond this afternoon with a solatium of five hundred pounds?'' |
37270 | Should I at once creep up to the Palace, or should I go back to the villa and find Rolston? |
37270 | Surely something had passed me? |
37270 | Tell me, where exactly did the kitchen- maid come in?" |
37270 | That so, brother leaguers?" |
37270 | The death of Zorilla, and his present failure, will not deter him in the least, knowing what we know of him?" |
37270 | The highest erection in the world, is n''t it, more than twice the height of the Eiffel Tower? |
37270 | The question we have to decide is, what are we to do?" |
37270 | The whisky was all right, but did he expect me to hobnob with Antony Midwinter, to speed the parting guest, as it were, with a stirrup- cup? |
37270 | Then he said:''But what use is it? |
37270 | Then there came in a calm, penetrating voice,"Are you there?" |
37270 | Treachery among the staff? |
37270 | Was I acting in a play or what on earth gave me this sense of confidence and strength? |
37270 | Well, how goes it?" |
37270 | What I hope to do is to form a little inner circle of friends, and you must be one of them-- if you will?" |
37270 | What are you doing now?" |
37270 | What did he know, what did he suspect? |
37270 | What did the scoop for the paper matter after all? |
37270 | What do you mean?" |
37270 | What do you say to going to have a look at them and see if they''re all right?" |
37270 | What had happened, what might even now be happening at the Palacete Mendoza? |
37270 | What have you to propose to me?" |
37270 | What impression did he make on you?" |
37270 | What is the use of trying to bluff me? |
37270 | What on earth were those two doing here at this time of night, just when I would have given almost anything to be left alone? |
37270 | What suggests itself to you as the next move in our relations?" |
37270 | What was he doing? |
37270 | What was the use after all? |
37270 | What was to be done? |
37270 | What_ was_ at the bottom of it all? |
37270 | When do you mean?" |
37270 | Which is it?" |
37270 | Who are you?" |
37270 | Why not take a tour round?" |
37270 | Williams?" |
37270 | Would I come to London at the earliest possible moment? |
37270 | You also, Pu- Yi, are connected with this colossal mystery?" |
37270 | You coming along too?" |
37270 | You have met Her-- Miss Morse I mean, my Juanita?" |
37270 | You have n''t seen much, for instance, have you?" |
37270 | You will not be afraid?" |
37270 | _ I must_ stay with father, can not you see that?" |
37270 | came to me over the wire, and then:"I think I understand, Sir Thomas, you wish--?" |
37270 | why did n''t you speak to me this morning, if you''ve been following me all day?" |
9866 | And if he ca n''t work? |
9866 | And if he wo n''t work? |
9866 | So far, so good,thought I; but I asked further what the Hotel Association would do if a guest_ could_ not pay? |
9866 | Yes, but what are my people and I to live upon in the mean time, until our factory begins to work? |
9866 | ''And are you not afraid,''I interposed,''that this absence of care will eventually put an end to that upon which you rely-- that is, to progress? |
9866 | ''And do not foreign crises sometimes disturb the calm course of your Freeland production? |
9866 | ''And is not this last- mentioned fact a disadvantage to the Freeland saver?'' |
9866 | ''And what has been your experience of these illiterate immigrants?'' |
9866 | ''Are there no horses here?'' |
9866 | ''But how would you defend yourselves against the artillery of European armies?'' |
9866 | ''But how,''asked my father--''how do you arrive at a knowledge of the mental condition of your ignorant fellow- countrymen? |
9866 | ''But, in heaven''s name, what becomes of the productive power among us which thus remains unemployed?'' |
9866 | ''But,''I asked,''what will prompt men to struggle in the cause of progress when want has lost its sting?'' |
9866 | ''But,''I interposed,''suppose a child is or becomes incapable of work?'' |
9866 | ''If it is really so, why have you not said so before; for you must have seen what good use can be made of elephants here?'' |
9866 | ''Is this your country,''was the rejoinder,''that you demand tribute? |
9866 | ''May I, in this connection, ask how you deal with the right of inheritance in general, and of inheritance of real property in particular? |
9866 | ''Or do you really believe that perfectly uneducated persons possess the power of disciplining themselves? |
9866 | ''Perhaps you will ask what right we have in this way to burden future generations to the profit of their ancestors? |
9866 | ''The last would be scarcely possible among us,''answered Mr. Ney, smiling;''for who would be willing to act as groom in Freeland? |
9866 | ''Then you do not admit that ornaments have any real adorning power? |
9866 | ''Then you think,''I said,''that equality of actual income has nothing to do with equality_ of rights_? |
9866 | ''Then,''said my father,''your boasted equality of rights exists only for educated persons?'' |
9866 | ''What can you do to protect the wretched remnant of our proud allied fleet?'' |
9866 | ''What do you find remarkable in that, my worthy guests? |
9866 | ''What have you done?'' |
9866 | ''What was to be done? |
9866 | ''Whence do you get all this reflected splendour of sunny joyousness?'' |
9866 | ''Why not?'' |
9866 | ''Why,''I asked,''do these ladies forsake the parental houses, which must be highly respectable ones?'' |
9866 | ''Why,''asked my father,''is there comparatively less use of the service in your house than elsewhere?'' |
9866 | ''You mean harshness, love of domination, wrangling? |
9866 | And can he use any such information when communicated to him, except to the injury of others? |
9866 | And in the war with the Kavirondo and Nangi were not the Masai in the wrong? |
9866 | And in what consists the change in the struggle for existence, in such a case as that indicated above? |
9866 | And what if it is not so? |
9866 | And what is the utility of human labour? |
9866 | And what is this? |
9866 | And what was it but want that drove them to both of these courses? |
9866 | And when the inevitable limit is reached, what then? |
9866 | And who will undertake to say that such a turn of affairs is altogether impossible? |
9866 | Are economic justice and freedom the ultimate outcome of human evolution; and what will probably be the condition of mankind under such a_ régime_? |
9866 | Are not your markets flooded, through foreign over- production, with goods for which there is no corresponding demand?'' |
9866 | Are you not yet able to measure the height of absurdity to which your doctrine leads?'' |
9866 | Because there was not yet enough human material for the organisation of all the branches of industry? |
9866 | But I perceive that your associations are by no means lacking in push and enterprise: how is this? |
9866 | But I think we are getting away from the main point, which is: is such a turn of affairs possible? |
9866 | But are the advantages of the individual undertaker over the joint- stock company really so great? |
9866 | But are we shut up to these modern kinds of luxury? |
9866 | But because this is the fact at present,_ must_ it necessarily be so? |
9866 | But can we conceive the condition possible in which our race should cover the surface of the earth like a plague of locusts? |
9866 | But have the masters really only this_ one_ way of disposing of the surplus-- can they really make no other use of it? |
9866 | But have we a right to infer that it will permanently assert itself? |
9866 | But how are armies, equal to the reorganised Abyssinian forces, to be maintained on those inhospitable coasts? |
9866 | But how could any political discretion on the part of the ruling classes have prevented this? |
9866 | But how is it with those who are orphaned in infancy? |
9866 | But how will it be when what you are striving after has happened, when the whole human race shall have been converted to your principles? |
9866 | But is that which Christ understands by justice really identical with what we mean by it? |
9866 | But perhaps a difficulty is found in the possibility that this small capitalist might no longer be capable of work? |
9866 | But self- interest? |
9866 | But there are outside of Freeland hundreds of thousands, nay millions, who are free from oppressive care: why do they not feel real cheerfulness? |
9866 | But was my fate so certain and inevitable? |
9866 | But what are such figures in comparison with the gigantic amounts of our savings and capital? |
9866 | But what good would it do us to spend money upon useless things? |
9866 | But what right have they to this so- called property? |
9866 | But where are its results? |
9866 | But who made them, and for what purpose were they originally made? |
9866 | But why not? |
9866 | But why should I spend time in surmises about questions which the immediate future must bring to a decision? |
9866 | But you will ask whether, in this placing of the savings of the community at the disposal of those who need capital, there does not lie an injustice? |
9866 | But, I hear it asked, does political economy possess such a problem-- one whose solution it has merely attempted but not arrived at? |
9866 | Can those others make any use of the knowledge they would thus acquire, except to do him injury? |
9866 | Can we really depend upon nature spontaneously to guarantee us this? |
9866 | Could we do so, even if we were willing? |
9866 | Did not_ unreasonable_ party agitations create difficulties in Freeland? |
9866 | Did they think that we should continue to be friends with thieves and robbers? |
9866 | Did they-- the Duruma-- imagine that we needed their help, or the help of anyone, to slay the Masai if we wished to slay them? |
9866 | Do men commit murder from religious motives_ merely_? |
9866 | Do the men of Freeland think that they are able to defend their creation from these dangers? |
9866 | Do they need none over them to organise, discipline, guide, and overlook the process of production? |
9866 | Do you believe that want can completely disappear from off the face of the earth without taking progress with it?'' |
9866 | Do you see that little apparatus yonder in the corridor? |
9866 | Does it really never happen that some of you drink a little more than enough to quench your thirst?'' |
9866 | Does man prevent them? |
9866 | Does not the most superficial glance show you that nowhere on the earth are there nearly so many elephants as would find nourishment in abundance? |
9866 | Does not the same apply to private property? |
9866 | Does not this thrift prove that anxiety for the morrow is not after all quite unknown here?'' |
9866 | Does the human labour- force which carries on their undertakings belong to them? |
9866 | Does the meeting approve of this choice?'' |
9866 | Does this constitute a just claim to exceptional treatment? |
9866 | Everywhere I see heavy carpets-- who keeps these clean? |
9866 | For is everything which is necessary to the progress of civilisation consequently also possible? |
9866 | Granted; but what right has the borrower, who at any rate derives advantage from the service rendered, to retain all the advantage himself? |
9866 | Had he not told them that the swords which we had given to their_ leitunus_ would snap asunder like glass if drawn in an unrighteous cause? |
9866 | Has anyone a remark to make upon our proposal? |
9866 | Have they cultivated the ground to which they lay claim? |
9866 | Have you a special board for this purpose; and do no unpleasantnesses spring from such an inquisition?'' |
9866 | Have your institutions such a strong ameliorating power over hardened criminals?'' |
9866 | He asked himself why did the Irish peasant and the Egyptian fellah suffer hunger? |
9866 | How are we to understand that this is not forbidden in Freeland?'' |
9866 | How could our thin line withstand the onset of fifteen times as many veteran warriors? |
9866 | How could we, without communistic coercion, transfer capital from the hands of the saver into those of the capital- needing producer? |
9866 | How do you reconcile these things?'' |
9866 | How were we to get this 130,000 £, or the greater part of it, into our pockets? |
9866 | I could go on with the thread of the narrative, and depict the work of human emancipation as it appears to my mental eye, but of what use would it be? |
9866 | If he acts in good faith he is not obnoxious to punishment-- but entitled to compensation? |
9866 | If they anticipated overthrow, why did they not withdraw in time? |
9866 | In a word, what if mankind could not permanently, and as a whole, participate in that progress the necessary condition of which is economic justice? |
9866 | In a word, who does the coarser work in this comfortably furnished house, which one can see at a glance is kept most carefully in order?'' |
9866 | In the name of heaven, do not your workers need such a man? |
9866 | Is it not evident that the previous speaker would, under their_ régime_, set self- interest upon the throne as the inciter to work? |
9866 | Is it so?'' |
9866 | Is no provision made for such? |
9866 | Is not, then, an appeal to this noblest of all minds calculated to discourage rather than to encourage us in the pursuit of our aims? |
9866 | Is the capital which they use the fruit of_ their_ labour? |
9866 | Is the new law to have a retrospective force? |
9866 | Is the story of the Golden Age something more than a pious fable; and are we upon the point of conjuring up another Golden Age? |
9866 | Is there no inconsistency here?'' |
9866 | Is there, nevertheless, no ground to fear that they will exhibit serious defects in comparison with undertakings conducted by individual employers? |
9866 | It can not possibly accord with the sentiments of Freeland parents who live in luxury to hand over their children to public orphanages?'' |
9866 | Merely the associations and workers who actually make use of the new waterways for transport? |
9866 | Mrs. Ney, however, asked what further preliminaries were necessary? |
9866 | Now, in spite of all this, how is it possible to satisfy everyone''s claim not merely to land, but to produce- bearing land? |
9866 | On the other hand, what reason has the producer in the world outside to communicate his experiences to others? |
9866 | Or are you in Freeland of opinion that it is unjust to give to the saver a share of the fruits of his saving?'' |
9866 | Or did its results once exist though we know nothing of them? |
9866 | Or do such servants receive exceptionally low wages here?'' |
9866 | Or have we yet to learn of some provisions made to defend you from such guests? |
9866 | Or will the arguer fall back upon the assertion that self- interest refers merely to the acquisition of material goods? |
9866 | Shall I be privileged to live until these men are found? |
9866 | Should we, in possession of the stronger form of civilisation, yield to the weaker and more backward one? |
9866 | Take the property from its owners? |
9866 | The correct answer to the question,''Why are we not richer in proportion to the increase in our productive capacity?'' |
9866 | The directors have no means of_ compelling_ obedience? |
9866 | The masses of the people, the serfs, where were these ever asked? |
9866 | The possessor may have produced it by his own labour and saved it: is he not in that case entitled to compensation? |
9866 | The question now is, what part of the earth shall we choose for such a purpose? |
9866 | The word''robbery''does not please the previous speaker? |
9866 | The workers were''free,''nothing compelled them to produce for other men''s advantage? |
9866 | Then are those who have been exploiters to retain undiminished the fruit of their''economic robbery''? |
9866 | This leaves unexplained the principal question, whence comes this difference in wealth? |
9866 | Was it at all conceivable that Ellen-- this Ellen-- such as I had known her for months, would love such a wretched fellow? |
9866 | We were also compelled to moot the question, what would happen if Freelanders wore to settle in any district belonging to a Western nation? |
9866 | What I now wish to know is, what were your reasons for forbidding the payment of interest? |
9866 | What advantage do we offer to the former for their compulsory thrift? |
9866 | What does our amiable hostess think upon this point?'' |
9866 | What does the production of labour cost? |
9866 | What does this mean when applied to the labour market? |
9866 | What foe prevents lions and tigers, sperm- whales, and sharks from multiplying until they reach the limit of their food supply? |
9866 | What has been the result? |
9866 | What has brought us to the country of social liberty? |
9866 | What if economic justice, though an extraordinary vehicle of civilisation, were for some reason unfortunately impracticable? |
9866 | What is the reason of this?'' |
9866 | What more could the most affectionate care of parents do for them? |
9866 | What of the criminals, against whose immigration you are not protected? |
9866 | What prompts your producers to run risks-- small though they may be-- when the profit to be gained thereby must so quickly be shared by everybody?'' |
9866 | What properly belongs to_ me_? |
9866 | What sense would there be in attempting to assimilate our several needs? |
9866 | What was to be done under such circumstances? |
9866 | What would happen then? |
9866 | What would have become of economic justice if any one of these possibilities had occurred? |
9866 | What would her friends in Paris have said to that? |
9866 | Where then, I repeat, lies the immense difference between the utilisation of our powers of production and of yours?'' |
9866 | Whether it is not Communism? |
9866 | Who can say? |
9866 | Who gains by the lowering of freights? |
9866 | Who would have hindered it from handing its milliards over to us? |
9866 | Who would not be glad to discover that a dreadful figure which filled him with terror and alarm was nothing but a scarecrow? |
9866 | Why did it delay so long, and why does it now make its assistance conditional on our accepting its economic institutions? |
9866 | Why does not this happen? |
9866 | Why is the existing exploiting society not able to call forth all this capacity? |
9866 | Why should not such a course answer in modern times? |
9866 | Why was this? |
9866 | Why? |
9866 | Will it not be humane, and therefore also prudent, to make some compensation to those who will be deprived of their possessions? |
9866 | Will not the new order work better if this small sacrifice is made, and embittered foes are thereby converted into grateful friends? |
9866 | Will this continue permanently: in particular, will the whole human race feel and act thus? |
9866 | Will you do this, and will you honourably keep your word?'' |
9866 | With what right, then, does exploitation dare to plume itself upon making use of_ self_-interest as a motive to labour? |
9866 | Would we pay tribute? |
9866 | Would you not think anyone a dotard who would try to convince you of the contrary? |
9866 | You are astonished? |
9866 | You deny that pearls or diamonds add materially to the charms of a beautiful person?'' |
9866 | You hold it to be impossible to become rich by lending gratuitously or by absolutely giving away a part of one''s property? |
9866 | You look at each other and at me with an inquiring astonishment? |
9866 | You think I hold that to be unnatural because it is immoral? |
9866 | [ A Voice: Then why was Christ crucified?] |
9866 | cried I, with dissembled anger;"but if more should come in than are needed?" |
6037 | After your announcement to the world, and all that has passed between us, would you humiliate me by the withdrawal of your gift? |
6037 | Am I a slave, to sit in solemn rapture at your feet and await your nod? |
6037 | Am I not your serene- browed Grecian goddess whose untamed eyes of primeval womanhood proclaim the end of slave marriage? |
6037 | Am I only to preach the truths that pay? |
6037 | Am I really losing my grasp of truth because I am giving up traditional dogmas? 6037 And a bachelor?" |
6037 | And if a man can work and will not work? |
6037 | And my boy told you to-- take-- this-- money, Ruth? |
6037 | And stooped to ask an usher instead of asking me? 6037 And then what?" |
6037 | And what are we doing? 6037 And what has Ruth to say?" |
6037 | And who would be the State? 6037 And will you be the only priest with her in the Temple of Humanity?" |
6037 | And would the oil of anointment of your new king, the walking delegate, be strong enough to temper the onion in his breath? 6037 And would you civilise it by giving free rein to impulses of nature that are subconscious, that lead direct to the reign of lust and murder? |
6037 | And yet you have faith? |
6037 | And you dare bring this message to me? 6037 And you have gone through with this every day for ten years?" |
6037 | And you love me like this when another has robbed my soul and body of their treasures and cast me aside? |
6037 | And you see all this in me? |
6037 | And you think me fit for such priesthood? |
6037 | And you will marry this other woman while Ruth lives? |
6037 | And you will not even give me a hint of this dream? |
6037 | And you''re not angry? |
6037 | Anderson, do you know anything of this case? 6037 Angry? |
6037 | Are we all ready? |
6037 | Are you hurt? |
6037 | Are you not my beloved daughter? 6037 But I have begun to question, father, whether our civilisation is civilised and worth preserving?" |
6037 | But how can I ever reconcile Van Meter''s commercialism with any living religion? |
6037 | But if he were dead you might love me? |
6037 | But may you not be mine in a nobler way than the cheap surrender to our senses? 6037 But why did they do it?" |
6037 | But why did you do this thing? 6037 Ca n''t stand the rustle of a woman''s dress?" |
6037 | Ca n''t you guess? |
6037 | Can such happiness be eternal? |
6037 | Can you forget the sunlit days of our past? |
6037 | Dare? 6037 Did I seek your wife? |
6037 | Do n''t you know that the triumph of Socialism will destroy the monogamic family? |
6037 | Do you ever get tired of preaching? 6037 Do you know an honest lawyer, dear?" |
6037 | Do you know the old legend of the opal? |
6037 | Do you know what you are saying? |
6037 | Frank, dear, have you gone mad? |
6037 | Frank, my darling, what is it? |
6037 | Frank, my darling, you can not think me so base? 6037 H''m; what are you going to do? |
6037 | Harness broken anywhere? |
6037 | Have you seen Kate? |
6037 | Have you told her? |
6037 | Hotel? 6037 How can I help it, Morris, if I love him?" |
6037 | How dare you crawl into this room to spy on me? |
6037 | How do you endure it? 6037 How do you know?" |
6037 | How long can you hold such a delusion, I wonder? |
6037 | How much are your stocks worth? |
6037 | Humiliate you? 6037 I suppose we will have to fight it out?" |
6037 | I wonder if she will promptly sue for a divorce? |
6037 | I wonder if they know when they go they sometimes leave my soul as empty and as lonely as those vacant pews? 6037 I wonder if you do?" |
6037 | I wonder if you know the meaning of such words; or if you are thinking of one thing and I of another? |
6037 | I wonder what pretty speeches you said to the stranger to- night? 6037 I wondered if you had felt that?" |
6037 | I''ll bet you had another quarrel with your wife last night? |
6037 | If men ask a sign to- day whether the Church of the living God exists in New York, what is our answer? 6037 Is it not so?" |
6037 | Is n''t it beautiful? |
6037 | Is that all? |
6037 | Is that your lawyer''s name? |
6037 | It does break one''s heart to see such children, does n''t it? |
6037 | Kate, are you crazy? |
6037 | May I ask, Doctor, if it is your intention to demand a vote to- night on this building scheme? |
6037 | May I kiss you, Governor? |
6037 | Must the strength of manhood be forever throttled by the impulses and mistakes of youth? 6037 No; but you will promise?" |
6037 | Pretty far apart for a pastor and deacon, then, do n''t you think? |
6037 | Religion? 6037 Shall we, too, desert? |
6037 | So fine as that? 6037 So tragic?" |
6037 | Surely not all so ugly and wretched as these? |
6037 | That load of red hay about to fall? |
6037 | Then who will save him? 6037 Then why not?" |
6037 | Think you could have talked back to- day? |
6037 | This is Doctor Gordon? |
6037 | Well, how many halves are there to you? 6037 Well, what is it?" |
6037 | Well, who cares? 6037 What could have possessed her to- night?" |
6037 | What difference if your master be changed by an election now and then? 6037 What do you mean?" |
6037 | What does Nature care? |
6037 | What is it? |
6037 | What is it? |
6037 | What is it? |
6037 | What is the charge against the woman? |
6037 | What shall I do? |
6037 | What was the matter with that man? |
6037 | What will they do to you, Frank? |
6037 | What woman, Ruth? |
6037 | What would you like to hear? |
6037 | What''s the matter? |
6037 | What''s the use to talk about mustard plaster? 6037 What''s the use? |
6037 | What? 6037 Where are you going down here?" |
6037 | Where have you been, Papa? 6037 Where is Frank?" |
6037 | Which wife? |
6037 | Who was that woman, Frank? |
6037 | Why ask it, Ruth? |
6037 | Why did n''t you come back to see me this week? |
6037 | Why did n''t you tell me that, Frank? |
6037 | Why did you keep your maid and send no answer to me? |
6037 | Why not? 6037 Why such childish terror? |
6037 | Why, Ludlow, what ails you? |
6037 | Why, what ails you, my dear? |
6037 | Why? |
6037 | Will she let him come back? |
6037 | Will you bear it, dear? |
6037 | Will you come to see me and meet my wife? |
6037 | Wo n''t you sit down? |
6037 | Yes; what were they doing there? |
6037 | Yet how can I control the beat of my heart? 6037 Yet, if you feel this for me, and I thus wait in love on another, how can I live the lie?" |
6037 | You do forgive me? |
6037 | You promised to call, of course? |
6037 | You see these hands? 6037 You think so?" |
6037 | You took the pains to find that out? |
6037 | You will keep it secret, Doctor? |
6037 | You will not kill me? |
6037 | You will not remember the foolish things I said to- night, dear? |
6037 | You wish me to be perfectly frank? |
6037 | You wish to know the whole truth? |
6037 | You''ll do it? |
6037 | You''ll help us, Doctor? |
6037 | You''re not afraid of losing me? |
6037 | ''Goest thou to see a woman? |
6037 | Ah, my boy, do you doubt my love?" |
6037 | Ai n''t none of your family got shoes?" |
6037 | Am I clear?" |
6037 | Am I not the mother of your children?" |
6037 | And do not your babies call me grandfather? |
6037 | And for what? |
6037 | Are you a king? |
6037 | As he came down from the pulpit, Ludlow took him by the hand and, with trembling voice, said:"Pastor, you know how I love you?" |
6037 | As they left, he said to Kate:"Did you see that crowd of two hundred men waiting at his door?" |
6037 | But what did he mean by an army of cripples greater than the havoc of war?" |
6037 | CHAPTER XV GOEST THOU TO SEE A WOMAN? |
6037 | Can gold pay for my heart''s desire? |
6037 | Can you guess what it is?" |
6037 | Could he continue to live with one woman if he loved another? |
6037 | Could she control herself? |
6037 | Could you love the Executive Officer of a Bureau for the Enforcement of Labour? |
6037 | Did we, Ma?" |
6037 | Do convicts become infatuated with their keepers? |
6037 | Do you know the one thing I asked when the past and present and future flashed before me in a moment?" |
6037 | Do you like me thus?" |
6037 | Do you remember?" |
6037 | Do you think that I will give her up? |
6037 | Do you understand?" |
6037 | Federate the hobos of all tongues and demand better straw in empty freight cars and shorter stops at sidings for express trains to pass?" |
6037 | For Ruth or Kate? |
6037 | Founded another church already?" |
6037 | Goest Thou to See a Woman? |
6037 | Gordon turned pale, nervously fumbled at his watch- chain and stammered:"Kate, you do n''t mean this?" |
6037 | Had he outgrown his first love? |
6037 | Had she not thought too much of her own rights and wrongs and too little of his hopes and burdens? |
6037 | Had they not been really united by that vital process which sometimes makes married people grow to look alike, and often to die on the same day? |
6037 | Has God given to her soul the power to look inside my heart and find its secret thoughts? |
6037 | Has he no rights-- have I no rights you must respect under such conditions?" |
6037 | Has he not a soul? |
6037 | He began to ask himself had not their being mingled somehow in essence? |
6037 | He raised his head, looked away, and softly said:"Ruth, could you never love me?" |
6037 | He sprang to his feet, suddenly exclaiming:"Well, what the devil is the matter?" |
6037 | He was so excited he could not speak for a moment, and again the low soft voice called,"What is it? |
6037 | He wondered why? |
6037 | Here-- now-- to- day-- die? |
6037 | Hogan?" |
6037 | How could I help the accident of such a meeting? |
6037 | How could I keep you from seeing it in my eyes, when you were free at last, and I knew you might be mine?" |
6037 | How could I prevent it if I wished?" |
6037 | How could such a thing be?" |
6037 | How is it possible?" |
6037 | How is the work going?" |
6037 | How many years of such life would it take to crush out of the human soul the last spark of hope and aspiration and reduce man to a beast?" |
6037 | I noticed you never preach now from the old text,''What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and forfeit his life?'' |
6037 | I wonder if you have weighed marriage in the balances and found it wanting?" |
6037 | I wonder if you recalled the decline of the French nation in modern times, and its causes, in arranging for your conquest of France? |
6037 | Insanity? |
6037 | Is Mrs. Gordon not coming?" |
6037 | Is it not so?" |
6037 | Is not man more than brute? |
6037 | Is that a reasonable request?" |
6037 | Is that you and the children in that car?" |
6037 | Is the spirit a delusion? |
6037 | Is this your boasted freedom-- freedom for man''s desires alone?" |
6037 | Love as many women as you like, but for decency''s sake-- can''t you honour your wife with a polite lie?" |
6037 | May I repeat your ceremony? |
6037 | May it not be better to die a man than live a beast? |
6037 | McDonald?" |
6037 | Now, I wish you to tell me honestly, face to face, why you object to me as the pastor of your church?" |
6037 | Now, will you do it?" |
6037 | Overman took her hand and, still trembling, said:"Do you know what that means?" |
6037 | Ruth fixed on him a look of melting tenderness and asked:"Do you not long for the open fields, the sky and sea, my dear?" |
6037 | Ruth,"he cried, bitterly,"why do you cling to this man? |
6037 | Shall I call at your home or office?" |
6037 | Shall I take the bull by the horns now and throw him and his Mammon- worshiping satellites out, or try to work such material into my future plans? |
6037 | She turned on him in a sudden flash and asked with frowning emphasis:"I wonder why you dragged me off on this idiotic trip?" |
6037 | Suppose under your maudlin cry of brotherhood you set up your fool''s paradise, where would reside the authority of your Commonwealth?" |
6037 | Surely there is yet one spark of love for him in your heart?" |
6037 | The employers ask,''Am I my brother''s keeper?'' |
6037 | The old man glanced uneasily about and said:"Son, is n''t this car going down the avenue?" |
6037 | The people inside, who had been halted, stretched their necks to see over the heads of those in front, crying:"What is it?" |
6037 | The price for my beloved? |
6037 | Was not sham and hypocrisy now the law of life, and was not Society perishing because of it? |
6037 | Was not this the one unpardonable sin and shame? |
6037 | Was she dead or alive? |
6037 | Was this power a threat to human liberty, or the highest expression of its hope? |
6037 | We thought you were never coming? |
6037 | What can endure?" |
6037 | What can we expect from such courts?" |
6037 | What did they care? |
6037 | What have you to say to this?" |
6037 | What if she found him with his arms about her and his lips on hers? |
6037 | What is it?" |
6037 | What is money between us? |
6037 | What is there to live for?" |
6037 | What more can you ask?" |
6037 | What principles? |
6037 | What sense of honour? |
6037 | What will be its name at Police Headquarters?" |
6037 | When he found his voice he whispered in wonder:"Mama, who is she?" |
6037 | Where will it end? |
6037 | Which division of this grand army will lead the movement in Gaul?" |
6037 | Which love? |
6037 | Who can bear witness to this miracle?" |
6037 | Who is it?" |
6037 | Who knows? |
6037 | Why did n''t you come? |
6037 | Why did you not say this to him?" |
6037 | Why does she keep asking me if I have lost faith in marriage? |
6037 | Why preach hell to people who expect to better their condition in the next world whether they go up or down? |
6037 | Why save the world if you destroy man?" |
6037 | Why was that woman in your study alone with you last night at half- past ten o''clock?" |
6037 | Why? |
6037 | Will he live, do you think?" |
6037 | Will you go?" |
6037 | With slow vehemence he said:"And do you think the man lives who will dare to take you from me?" |
6037 | Would she, womanlike, at the last moment contradict herself and withhold the full surrender of life? |
6037 | You asked me once for help-- did I fail you?" |
6037 | You both refuse, you who walk with your head among the stars, What then? |
6037 | You do forgive me?" |
6037 | You do n''t mean to apply such tommyrot to your own wife now that she''s yours?" |
6037 | You do n''t mean to tell me that your Socialist poppy plant has borne its opium fruit so soon? |
6037 | You know the way to the hotel, or shall I ring for my maid to show you?" |
6037 | You will not forget that I love you? |
6037 | You, who boldly say to the world that I am your free comrade, the mate and equal of man?" |
6037 | because he''s gone?" |
47030 | Alone? |
47030 | And all you ask,said the Marquis, after carefully examining the warrant,"is the surrender of this girl? |
47030 | And do you think that nothing more is needed-- that it is enough to contemplate the happiness of my subjects? |
47030 | And do you think that should make me happy, mademoiselle? |
47030 | And he said that I was to be the man? |
47030 | And he told all this to you? |
47030 | And how can I serve you further? |
47030 | And how can I serve your majesty there? |
47030 | And is it the white flour you bring me from your dusty mill? |
47030 | And may it not be the teacher who was at fault? |
47030 | And was his daughter coming with him? |
47030 | And what of the man? |
47030 | And what right have you,he continued as coldly as ever,"to crave mercy for him? |
47030 | And what, sire,he asked diffidently,"shall I do with the girl?" |
47030 | And who do you suppose she is? |
47030 | And whose silent voice was this? |
47030 | And why do you think I am that one, mademoiselle? |
47030 | And why not, my son? |
47030 | And why not? |
47030 | And why should you not in any case? |
47030 | And will it really bring you and Trecenito together if I go? |
47030 | And yet you do not believe a man may be infatuated with her? |
47030 | And you know why she is coming? |
47030 | And you will let me do this little thing? |
47030 | And your majesty denied me the pleasure of waiting on you? |
47030 | Are you better? |
47030 | Are you deceived by such a trick as that? 47030 Are you not well, Kophetua?" |
47030 | Are you sure of this? |
47030 | Are you sure? |
47030 | Are you the great God? |
47030 | But I have no money? |
47030 | But are you sure no one will see me? |
47030 | But do you not know? |
47030 | But how are we to travel? |
47030 | But how can you arrange this delicate mission,objected the Marquis,"while you are under arrest?" |
47030 | But how did you come here? |
47030 | But how do you come by it? |
47030 | But is there the slightest chance of success? |
47030 | But it wo n''t suit you, sir? |
47030 | But of what kind was he? |
47030 | But she is clever, is n''t she, General? |
47030 | But what about the daughter? |
47030 | But what were you doing there? |
47030 | But where did you get it from? |
47030 | But where have you been? |
47030 | But where-- where am I to seek? |
47030 | But why are you not to be with Mlle de Tricotrin? 47030 But why are you thus,"he said, irresolute and unable to comprehend whether it was play or earnest,"if it was not your desire? |
47030 | But why did you not tell me this? |
47030 | But why do you say all this? |
47030 | But why not, madam, why not? |
47030 | But why not? 47030 But will it take hold of me too?" |
47030 | But, mademoiselle, how can I claim such a service at your hands? 47030 By what right,"said he,"do you conjure me by our old love? |
47030 | Can you not think there may be something else a man may crave for, something still higher? |
47030 | Child,said Héloise, in a hoarse whisper,"is it you?" |
47030 | Did he come himself before? |
47030 | Did my good mistress not tell you? |
47030 | Did you not know? |
47030 | Did you not say you were Trecenito''s soldier? |
47030 | Did you recognise the girl in the stocks? |
47030 | Do n''t you see? 47030 Do you intend to give me back the girl you stole from me?" |
47030 | Do you know those men? |
47030 | Do you know who it was? |
47030 | Do you love me then so much? |
47030 | Do you mean to allow a silly freak, in which we were both engaged, to sever our lifelong friendship? |
47030 | Do you mean to thwart me again, Chancellor? |
47030 | Do you not know, madam? |
47030 | Do you not know? |
47030 | Does he really mean to come in person? |
47030 | Does your majesty insist on an answer? |
47030 | Does your majesty threaten me? |
47030 | Have you any light to throw on the parties concerned? |
47030 | How am I to tell it is not the husk that is only fit for swine? |
47030 | How can I be happy, how can I live according to nature, leading the life I do, without an annoyance, literally without an annoyance? 47030 How can I? |
47030 | How is our Penelophon, mademoiselle? |
47030 | How will you prevent it? |
47030 | I do not understand; what do you mean? |
47030 | I presume your majesty has nothing to put on the orders of the day? |
47030 | In what capacity? |
47030 | Is he hurt? |
47030 | Is he? 47030 Is it possible you distrust your_ déesse_?" |
47030 | Is it thinking of Trecenito that keeps you awake? |
47030 | Is she a Girondist or a Jacobin, or whatever they are? |
47030 | Is that all you have to say to me, Chancellor? |
47030 | Is that the handsomest one you have? |
47030 | Is there any business? |
47030 | Is there nothing you have kept back? 47030 Is there something else?" |
47030 | Is your majesty serious? |
47030 | May I know nothing before I grant it? |
47030 | May I not know who were your allies? |
47030 | Must we wait very long? |
47030 | My child, my child,said her mistress in a hushed voice, as of one who speaks in some vast, solemn cathedral,"whence and what are you? |
47030 | My girl,said the Queen, with severity, though not unkindly,"why are you here? |
47030 | My son, my son,he cried,"what do you here? |
47030 | No, child; what was it? |
47030 | None in the world,answered Turbo;"why should I?" |
47030 | Not safe? |
47030 | O base Assyrian knight, what is thy news? 47030 See, see,"whispered Penelophon, suddenly pointing to the window,"I knew you would save me; why did you frighten me so?" |
47030 | Shall I bring my papers to this end of the room? |
47030 | Shall I take his excellency''s parole? |
47030 | Shall Mlle de Tricotrin retire? |
47030 | That depends upon what you intend to do? |
47030 | The discovery of my daughter''s complicity? 47030 Then she has told you the whole story?" |
47030 | Then what do you mean to do? |
47030 | Then what do you propose? |
47030 | Then what is the meaning of this? |
47030 | Then whom do you blame for the unfortunate intervention of the gendarmes? |
47030 | Then why do n''t you stand yourself? |
47030 | Then why refuse to receive your sword? |
47030 | Then you accept my terms? |
47030 | Then you are aware,continued the King,"that she is the person whom you allowed to escape from your custody?" |
47030 | Then you can understand, mademoiselle,he said quite softly,"that I am perfectly miserable rather than perfectly happy?" |
47030 | Then you will manage it? |
47030 | To recapture the girl yourself, I presume? |
47030 | To what end have I spent all these years in the study of politics? 47030 Trecenito,"she said again,"why did you let them call us man and wife? |
47030 | Turbo,answered Kophetua hotly,"what folly is this? |
47030 | Was not the King pleased with you, then? |
47030 | Well, my child? |
47030 | Well, sir? |
47030 | What can she do? 47030 What did he say, sir?" |
47030 | What do you mean by all this? |
47030 | What do you mean, sir? |
47030 | What do you mean? |
47030 | What do you mean? |
47030 | What do you propose to do? |
47030 | What duty is it speaks so big? |
47030 | What good can it do to gall your wounds and mine like this? |
47030 | What is in it, sir? |
47030 | What is the meaning of this? |
47030 | What is this sin, my son? 47030 What is thy name, faire maid? |
47030 | What is your name? |
47030 | What monarch had a happier life or left a happier memory behind him? 47030 What must it be, then?" |
47030 | What steps then,asked the General,"would your majesty desire me to take?" |
47030 | What sudden chance is this? 47030 What thing, my girl?" |
47030 | What things are those? 47030 What, now? |
47030 | When will he be here? |
47030 | When will you take me away? 47030 Where am I?" |
47030 | Where is the note I shall take? |
47030 | Where will you find truer nature, and, therefore, truer nobility, than there? 47030 Where you were to go, child?" |
47030 | Who do you say, girl? |
47030 | Who is this,he cried,"that dares to make arrest in a royal borough? |
47030 | Who is your mistress? |
47030 | Why all this nonsense about demanding a trial? |
47030 | Why did you run away? |
47030 | Why do they come to look at me? |
47030 | Why do you do that, child? |
47030 | Why so? |
47030 | Why, deary,said Frampa,"what is the matter? |
47030 | Why, my poor friend,she answered,"do you think they will go back now, with their hands on the prize? |
47030 | Why, what folly is this? |
47030 | Why, what is it you fear? |
47030 | Why, what is that? |
47030 | Will it bring Trecenito nearer to you, then? |
47030 | Will you undress now? |
47030 | Would your majesty wish to make the examination in private? |
47030 | Yes, sir? |
47030 | Yes, sire? |
47030 | Yes? |
47030 | Yes? |
47030 | You do not mind that? |
47030 | You look pale and tired; have you not slept? |
47030 | You mean that I should arrange with your party which way it means to go, that you may be in a position to know how to lead it? |
47030 | You must remember, my dear,said the Marquis,"they have been playing hero and heroine together in a very romantic drama? |
47030 | You see he asked if he might bring her, and what could I say? 47030 You see?" |
47030 | And yet, was it not the truth? |
47030 | And, after all, where was the crime? |
47030 | Are you ill?" |
47030 | Are you sure you are right in your story of this romantic abduction? |
47030 | But do you think you will bring her to it easily, Frampa? |
47030 | But how was it to be done? |
47030 | But the only question after all was, What would the King think? |
47030 | But to what end is it all, I say? |
47030 | But what is the need? |
47030 | But where could he take her? |
47030 | But where was ever a woman,"he added, with the sweetest smile,"who would not take a mean advantage if she could?" |
47030 | But why are you glad?" |
47030 | Can you not see what sweet solace there was for me there? |
47030 | Can you not see? |
47030 | Can you not send another?" |
47030 | Could such beauty be the outward sign of the baseness which he had been taught to believe in? |
47030 | Did this hermit give the key of the mystery why his own life had been as great a failure as the beggar- guild? |
47030 | Did you show any to me? |
47030 | Didst thou not feel it last night, when thou couldst not deny she was thy wife?" |
47030 | Do n''t you see that?" |
47030 | Do you hear? |
47030 | Do you not know that no one is allowed in the park without leave?" |
47030 | Find me a woman where the seraphic matter is unpoisoned with the spirit of Eve, and why should I not love her? |
47030 | Have you not one blow in reserve?" |
47030 | Have you told him this too?" |
47030 | He could feel her trembling in his embrace, and his voice was very gentle as he answered,"Why, pretty one,"he said,"what were they?" |
47030 | He knew the face well; where had he seen it? |
47030 | How can I ever rival the knight,"he went on,"with nothing to overcome, with nothing to stand in my way? |
47030 | How can a thing so beautiful know the ugliness of sorrow? |
47030 | How can nobility grow out of such pettinesses as are our highest employments? |
47030 | How could they ever recover their reputation? |
47030 | How did you come to leave her?" |
47030 | How shall I ever be able to return your devotion?" |
47030 | How will you find reward for me, if to him you would give so much?" |
47030 | I ask you, do you mean to make my son refuse again?" |
47030 | I believe my orders are plain?" |
47030 | I have come a long way to you, will you not make one step to meet me? |
47030 | If General Dolabella would not accept his assurance of the girl''s innocence and danger, who would? |
47030 | If one woman could be as good and pure and gentle as Penelophon, why should not another? |
47030 | If she had jarred upon him so last night, did it not show that she was not the perfect schemer he had thought her? |
47030 | Is it not lovely?" |
47030 | Is there evidence of it?" |
47030 | May I venture to ask whether the usual procedure in this country is to deal with the two things separately?" |
47030 | Say now, my dear General, will you give my daughter this one last satisfaction before her marriage?" |
47030 | Shall I go with you now?" |
47030 | She could imagine, perhaps, a painter, or a sculptor, or a poet-- yes, but was not Kophetua a poet after all? |
47030 | Surely you have not come to mock me like the rest? |
47030 | Tell me, am I-- am I indeed your wife?" |
47030 | To what end is all this? |
47030 | To which voice would she give ear at last? |
47030 | Was it not a gentle solace?" |
47030 | Was it not for this you ran away to the players? |
47030 | Was not the sublime life, after all, the life of moral influence rather than the life of action? |
47030 | Was she so suddenly changed, or were his eyes dazzled by the vision on which he had been gazing too long? |
47030 | Was this indeed the idol he had been gilding so long? |
47030 | What are we beside them, with our empty, easy, untried lives? |
47030 | What can you want with the child?" |
47030 | What could it mean? |
47030 | What could they be? |
47030 | What devotion has he ever shown you? |
47030 | What do you mean? |
47030 | What do you mean?" |
47030 | What else did you expect? |
47030 | What had happened? |
47030 | What has he ever sacrificed for you? |
47030 | What is he to you that I was not a thousandfold? |
47030 | What is it I shall do for you?" |
47030 | What is it to me that my people are contented, rich, and unoppressed? |
47030 | What is this lie?" |
47030 | What law was ever proclaimed that did not bring evil in its train? |
47030 | What might my lonely life have been with a daughter like you to warm and brighten it? |
47030 | What of that?" |
47030 | What ridiculous farce is this we are playing?" |
47030 | What shall I do? |
47030 | What sound has power like that? |
47030 | What was he to do with her? |
47030 | What will happen if he is not married this year? |
47030 | When did I ever say a word against the material part of women? |
47030 | When did he ever love you more than his dogs? |
47030 | Where could he be going? |
47030 | Where did she come from?" |
47030 | Where else could you lodge her? |
47030 | Where is the true woman who would not do the same, and do it well in a good cause? |
47030 | Which department is it?" |
47030 | Which thought was it that made her heart ache so as she reached her room that night, and saw how she was losing him? |
47030 | Who can read aright the thoughts that vexed that lovely figure which had thrown itself in weary grace upon the soft divan? |
47030 | Who can wonder that when the brilliancy of the career was so dazzling, that the shame on which it rested could hardly be seen? |
47030 | Who shall tell? |
47030 | Why are you not beside your wife?" |
47030 | Why did he fetch her at the risk of his life and in disguise out of the Liberties? |
47030 | Why did he place her with the most accomplished woman he knew, to be refined and sweetened for him? |
47030 | Why do you think he chose the very hour when your daughter was with the Queen? |
47030 | Why do you think he used to watch the beggar- maid continually from his windows? |
47030 | Why does he sit continually before the old picture in the library? |
47030 | Why should not this one? |
47030 | Why should she feel for him, who had no spark of sympathy for her? |
47030 | Will you not take me away where it can not come? |
47030 | Yes, it is hard, but is not my lot harder still? |
47030 | Yes; no doubt the Marquis was right unconsciously; but how to live the life he praised? |
47030 | You are not afraid of the dark?" |
47030 | You have reasons, have you, why you may not say who this lady is? |
47030 | You know?" |
47030 | You know?" |
47030 | You understand?" |
47030 | You-- you, who knew best how my heart could feel, what think you was in it then? |
47030 | asked the General,"or will your majesty?" |
47030 | cried the General in alarm,"what do you mean?" |
47030 | exclaimed Penelophon, casting herself at Margaret''s feet,"what shall I do? |
47030 | exclaimed the astonished King,"my mother took you to them? |
47030 | if she had only been what he had almost thought her, how all his troubles would have been ended? |
47030 | in the dark?" |
47030 | lass,"he burst out,"could iron and stone help loving such a little flower? |
47030 | my night- hawk,"cried the officer of the party, in a round laughing voice;"is that your note? |
47030 | said he, starting back to see the haggard spectacle the King presented after the horrors he had gone through,"what has happened? |
47030 | she cried, in a hushed voice of anguish,"what have you done? |
47030 | she whispered,"or only an angel?" |
47030 | to- night? |
47030 | will you let him laugh at our noses like this?" |
47030 | you think that? |
48690 | Irreligion,she cried,"was rampant; was this a moment for bringing forward such a motion? |
48690 | ''Algernon,''he said feebly,''have you come to your right mind?'' |
48690 | ''Algy,''said Lord Chester cheerfully,''what are you thinking of?'' |
48690 | ''And do not your friends know or suspect?'' |
48690 | ''And we-- what shall we do?'' |
48690 | ''And what are we doing?'' |
48690 | ''And what then?'' |
48690 | ''And when do you see her?'' |
48690 | ''And why,''cried the Duchess sharply, and dropping her stick--''why should it not be continued?'' |
48690 | ''And you are so much occupied in teaching that you never learn? |
48690 | ''Anything important? |
48690 | ''Are they good- tempered? |
48690 | ''Are they pretty, your old women?'' |
48690 | ''But how,''asked the neophyte,''came this wonderful religion to be lost?'' |
48690 | ''But is he,''asked another lady,''is he quite-- are you sure of what you say, Professor, about his orthodoxy?'' |
48690 | ''But the girls, Harry, who have lost their lovers,--your own girl, what will she do?'' |
48690 | ''But were the men happy?'' |
48690 | ''But where is the uncertainty? |
48690 | ''But,''said Lord Chester,''is that wrong? |
48690 | ''Constance,''he whispered,''you will not forget--_all_ that I said?'' |
48690 | ''Cousinship, incompatibility of temper, some legal quibble-- who knows? |
48690 | ''Do I understand,''asked Lady Carlyon,''that you refuse to receive my proposal? |
48690 | ''Do they remember, Harry, that a Chester once ruled this country?'' |
48690 | ''Do you learn much,''asked the Professor,''of your country tenants?'' |
48690 | ''Do you not envy me my happy lot? |
48690 | ''Do you speculate often,''asked his tutor,''in these theological matters?'' |
48690 | ''Does he... does he... express any unwillingness?'' |
48690 | ''Edward, what can you do?'' |
48690 | ''Has your ladyship any more news?'' |
48690 | ''Have I? |
48690 | ''Have my lessons borne so little fruit that you should ask that question?'' |
48690 | ''Have we not had enough of that nonsense? |
48690 | ''Have you nothing to say, Constance?'' |
48690 | ''He is better- looking,''he overheard one schoolgirl whispering to another,''than the fellow on the canvas, is n''t he?'' |
48690 | ''He is in love with the girl, is he?'' |
48690 | ''How can I help to restore knowledge,''asked the young man,''being myself so ignorant?'' |
48690 | ''How can we ever restore the busy past?'' |
48690 | ''How can you reconcile it with the precepts of morality? |
48690 | ''How goes it, Tom?'' |
48690 | ''How would it do?'' |
48690 | ''Is it not time, therefore, to let me know this mysterious purpose?'' |
48690 | ''Is it possible that you... you... our own brother, should use these words?'' |
48690 | ''Is it,''asked Lord Chester,''impossible to be religious without becoming such a creature as_ that_?'' |
48690 | ''Is not Oxford still the seat of learning?'' |
48690 | ''Is there nothing good at all?'' |
48690 | ''Lord Chester in love? |
48690 | ''May I ask your Grace what is astonishing about this proposal? |
48690 | ''May I ask,''said Lord Chester quietly,''if I may express my own views on this somewhat important matter?'' |
48690 | ''Must we, then,''she asked,''cease to believe in logic?'' |
48690 | ''My acquiescence?'' |
48690 | ''My dear Constance,''interrupted the Professor,''was it judicious to show your whole hand at once? |
48690 | ''My dear, what is there to forgive?'' |
48690 | ''My dear, who manages the farm?'' |
48690 | ''Nay, Lord Chester; what will_ you_ do for them? |
48690 | ''Only a year: and the hay again Lies in swathes, like the weed on the shore; Lone he wanders with troubled brain, Crying,"When will she come again?" |
48690 | ''Respect?'' |
48690 | ''Run away? |
48690 | ''The fun?'' |
48690 | ''This is beautiful to think of, is it not?'' |
48690 | ''What are these?'' |
48690 | ''What are we doing but talk? |
48690 | ''What did he say, papa?'' |
48690 | ''What did she reply?'' |
48690 | ''What do you think of that, brothers mine?'' |
48690 | ''What dreadful thing is this? |
48690 | ''What else, Julia? |
48690 | ''What has happened now, Edward?'' |
48690 | ''What is it now?'' |
48690 | ''What is it, Constance? |
48690 | ''What is it?'' |
48690 | ''What is that?'' |
48690 | ''What is the use of talking about leaving town when Lady Boltons is ill?'' |
48690 | ''What is your message?'' |
48690 | ''What martyrs of religion would ask for a more noble opportunity,''he asked,''than to marry this old woman?'' |
48690 | ''What punishment is there for women who make slaves of their husbands, lock them up, kill them with work? |
48690 | ''What purpose?'' |
48690 | ''What shall I do?'' |
48690 | ''What shall we do? |
48690 | ''What then? |
48690 | ''What would boys do with such a splendid place?'' |
48690 | ''What would you do with them?'' |
48690 | ''Where-- where-- where is the Army?'' |
48690 | ''Who asked you,''cried Lord Chester,''if you wanted to marry an old woman? |
48690 | ''Who drives the cattle, sows the seed, reaps, ploughs?'' |
48690 | ''Who have run away?'' |
48690 | ''Who wrote these?'' |
48690 | ''Whose is the wedding- present?'' |
48690 | ''Why do you laugh, Professor?'' |
48690 | ''Why do you not teach them, then, Professor?'' |
48690 | ''Why not in your parish? |
48690 | ''Why not? |
48690 | ''Why will the boy do these wild things? |
48690 | ''Why, who could respect you, Constance, more than I do? |
48690 | ''Wiser than_ you_, Professor? |
48690 | ''Would you and I have thought of such a trick? |
48690 | ''Would you like the Duke of Dunstanburgh to horsewhip stable- boys?'' |
48690 | ''Would you make a revolution, and upset everything? |
48690 | ''Yes,''he replied gaily, as if it had been a question of some simple act of petulance;''it is a good thing, is n''t it? |
48690 | ''You are come to try your powers, I suppose?'' |
48690 | ''You are well this morning, Constance?'' |
48690 | ''You have not yet heard, then,''the Earl replied,''of the great honour done to me and to my house?'' |
48690 | ''You have quite made up your mind, Duchess?'' |
48690 | ''You like our pictures?'' |
48690 | ''You mean the Convict Wardens? |
48690 | ''You? |
48690 | ''You?'' |
48690 | ''Your husband?'' |
48690 | ''Your men? |
48690 | ''_ You obey your husband?_ This is most wonderful.'' |
48690 | *****''Constance,''he said holding her in his arms,''you believe that I have always loved you, do you not?'' |
48690 | After all, though, what could she put in its place here?'' |
48690 | And as for that sermon you spoke of----''''Well, Professor?'' |
48690 | And the soldiers!--saw one ever such men before? |
48690 | And this of the Duchess of Dunstanburgh? |
48690 | And yet-- what did this mean? |
48690 | Another charged me with trying to be thought the loveliest woman in London; can we even listen to such things without shame? |
48690 | Are they pleasant to live with?'' |
48690 | Are we always to go on producing the same pictures?'' |
48690 | Are we, then, fallen so low, that at the first movement of an enemy we have nothing but tears and recrimination? |
48690 | Are you aware that the boy has been properly brought up? |
48690 | Are you aware that the least of these charges is actionable at common law? |
48690 | Are you mad, Julia? |
48690 | Are you proposing to seek a prison at once? |
48690 | Are you ready to die with me?'' |
48690 | Are you softening in the brain? |
48690 | Are you still of the same mind? |
48690 | Are you still of the same mind?'' |
48690 | As for that third husband-- could one expect the poor young man to fall in love with a woman already fifty- eight when she married him? |
48690 | Astronomy, which widened the heart, is neglected; medicine has become a thing of books; mechanics are forgotten----''''But why?'' |
48690 | Beer, my lord? |
48690 | Besides, is it in reason that he should have made such a declaration? |
48690 | But suppose they would not rise? |
48690 | But the Upper? |
48690 | But what are we to do with them? |
48690 | But what are you going to do? |
48690 | By your authorised statement of mutual affection?'' |
48690 | Can any one believe that he could have contemplated the proposed union without repugnance? |
48690 | Can any one believe that the judgment of the House would have been given for the happiness of the young man? |
48690 | Can no one place truth before us in words of freshness?'' |
48690 | Can we not devise some means of dying gracefully? |
48690 | Can you doubt what was that hope?'' |
48690 | Cheeks hot- burning, and eyes down- dropped,-- What did he think when she suddenly stopped, And gave him her hand-- to hold? |
48690 | Could Lord Chester have fled with all his men? |
48690 | Could anything be more delightful? |
48690 | Could she have believed it possible that the will of a man should thus be able to overpower her? |
48690 | Could they do nothing, then? |
48690 | Could we have a ballad showing how a young lady-- she must be young-- pined away and died for love of a man who broke his promise?'' |
48690 | Did any girl ever really_ like_ reading law? |
48690 | Did any of you choose her for yourselves? |
48690 | Did one ever see a man with such shoulders, and yet with such a waist and such a hand? |
48690 | Do you hear, Algy? |
48690 | Do you mean the Perfect Woman herself?'' |
48690 | Do you observe?'' |
48690 | Do you think I have no enemies? |
48690 | Do you think all women have kind hearts and pleasant tongues?'' |
48690 | Do you think young Lord Chester can go anywhere without being seen and reported? |
48690 | Does any educated woman now believe in the Perfect Woman, except as a means of keeping men down? |
48690 | Forget? |
48690 | Had he a spell? |
48690 | Had he been walking and living among conspirators? |
48690 | Had she ever before, in all her life, trembled? |
48690 | Had she heard aright? |
48690 | Hag? |
48690 | Have I not Constance? |
48690 | Have not Oxford and Cambridge proclaimed this from a hundred pulpits and in a thousand text- books? |
48690 | Have you any more hearsays?'' |
48690 | Have you not been taught the wickedness of expressing, even of allowing yourself to feel an inclination for any young lady?'' |
48690 | Have you nothing to say to me?'' |
48690 | Have you seen Lord Chester''s gift, sisters?'' |
48690 | His name? |
48690 | How am I to meet such stories as this? |
48690 | How ask men to rebel when their eternal interests demanded submission? |
48690 | How came you here?'' |
48690 | How can I make you understand? |
48690 | How can any line be continued except through the mother? |
48690 | How could he continue to worship the Perfect Woman when he was thrusting woman out of her place? |
48690 | How could he remain a faithful servant of the Church, and yet rebel against the first law of the Church? |
48690 | How could the Grand Revolt be carried out in the teeth of the most sacred commandments? |
48690 | How could the sympathies of the people be otherwise than on her side? |
48690 | How long are you going to stand it? |
48690 | How long will you stand it, I say?'' |
48690 | How many can we reckon on?'' |
48690 | If I was a man, and strong, would I let the women have their own way? |
48690 | If I_ am_ an old woman, and like to die, you shall never have him-- do you hear? |
48690 | If that was so, would no one find a compromise by which they could restore that part, at least, of the former rà © gime? |
48690 | If they saw a chance, if they thought they could get their sweethearts back again, would they not rejoice?'' |
48690 | Is he dressed?'' |
48690 | Is it not a time to act? |
48690 | Is it their fault that they become vacuous, ill- tempered, discontented, the bane of the house which their virtues ought to make a happy home? |
48690 | Is that a pleasant thing for you?'' |
48690 | Is that all, Julia? |
48690 | Is the world turning upside down?'' |
48690 | Is there anything else you can tell me?'' |
48690 | Is this a time to accuse me-- ME-- of forcing the rebel chief into rebellion? |
48690 | It''s obstructing law-- it''s threatening the executive: what will the justices say? |
48690 | Lady Boltons is his guardian; who would be safer? |
48690 | Life was dull and monotonous; but how could it be otherwise? |
48690 | May we look for your devotion-- even if we fail?'' |
48690 | Meantime, what were the Army of Avengers doing? |
48690 | Mother says she is worthy to become-- to be raised-- to be----''''What?'' |
48690 | My Lord Bishop, are you contented with your pupils?'' |
48690 | Of what good is a man''s life to him, if he does not give it for the sacred cause? |
48690 | Oh, what was the Government about? |
48690 | On what plea?'' |
48690 | Professor Ingleby has been his tutor; who could be more discreet?'' |
48690 | Professor Ingleby, have you anything to advise? |
48690 | Shall we run away together?'' |
48690 | She was going to add,''Who is it?'' |
48690 | Should such wretches be allowed to live? |
48690 | Silence? |
48690 | Stand aside.... You, Susan, will you come with me and your old sweetheart?'' |
48690 | Suppose all young men were allowed to run about alone?'' |
48690 | The most powerful mind, coupled with the highest rank,--how should that fail to attract and fix the affection and gratitude of a man? |
48690 | The new groom?'' |
48690 | The next steps, are they not written in the Books of the Chronicles of the country? |
48690 | Then we need not expect the Horse Guards to- morrow morning?'' |
48690 | These two men in the plot? |
48690 | Tom, what do you say?'' |
48690 | Was it not infinitely better to be wooed and made love to when one was young, than to woo for oneself when one had already passed her best? |
48690 | Was it true, the girls asked, that formerly the women ruled at home, while the men did all the work? |
48690 | What are the feeble strains, the oft- repeated phrases of modern music, compared with the grand old music conceived and written by men? |
48690 | What are we to do? |
48690 | What are we to do?'' |
48690 | What better thing could there be for us, my children, than to die in this attempt? |
48690 | What could he have to tell her except one thing-- the one thing which she had been dreading for two or three years? |
48690 | What did the tract say? |
48690 | What did you intend to say?'' |
48690 | What do I care for my reputation?'' |
48690 | What do they know about Ancient History?'' |
48690 | What do you find to remark upon, most of all?'' |
48690 | What does it mean? |
48690 | What else can we expect? |
48690 | What had he learned since he left London? |
48690 | What have we done with Love?'' |
48690 | What matter? |
48690 | What more could they do? |
48690 | What next? |
48690 | What next? |
48690 | What next? |
48690 | What nonsense is this, Julia? |
48690 | What then, had become of the Guards? |
48690 | What use to say now what should have been said at another time and at a more fitting opportunity? |
48690 | What was before him? |
48690 | What was the good of paying wages to this wife, when her husband took from her what he wanted for himself? |
48690 | What was the horse saddled for? |
48690 | What was the use of the Convict Wardens, unless they were to be sent out to arrest the leaders, and shoot all who refused to disband and disperse? |
48690 | What was to be done? |
48690 | What will be your fate?'' |
48690 | What would constitute a favourable opportunity? |
48690 | What would happen, now that they were victorious? |
48690 | What would the boy want? |
48690 | What, however, if the men refused to rise and follow? |
48690 | What, it was asked, would happen if the men did come? |
48690 | What, then, were they doing? |
48690 | What_ could_ men be like that they should so lightly pass from one extreme to the other? |
48690 | When can you start?'' |
48690 | When these are dispersed, where will they find a new army? |
48690 | When?'' |
48690 | Whence the early falling off into fat cheeks and flabby limbs? |
48690 | Where were the preachers? |
48690 | Where were they all at this most fatal moment? |
48690 | Where, for their own part, could they look for soldiers? |
48690 | Where, oh, where, did you learn to talk-- to think-- to dare such dreadful things?'' |
48690 | Where, then, was Woman? |
48690 | Which of us believes any more in the Church? |
48690 | Who believes it? |
48690 | Who is she? |
48690 | Who will follow me?'' |
48690 | Who would not prefer liberty and seeing the men work? |
48690 | Whom, then, could we acknowledge as head but the Perfect Woman? |
48690 | Why did they run away?'' |
48690 | Why should we accept statements on Authority? |
48690 | Why should we doom them to a long life of forced inaction? |
48690 | Why should women do all, as well as think for all? |
48690 | Why, Professor?'' |
48690 | Why, what if a few hundreds of dead men strew this field to- morrow provided the Right prevails? |
48690 | Why, when there were girls in the village, sweet and young and pretty, longing for your love, is it likely you would take an old woman?'' |
48690 | Why? |
48690 | Will you leave Lord Chester with me, my dear?'' |
48690 | Would Lord Chester escape? |
48690 | Would they fight for the Government? |
48690 | Yet what could they do? |
48690 | Yet, what help? |
48690 | _ He does not forget._''''What do you mean?'' |
48690 | and next? |
48690 | and what would be the best way to take advantage of it? |
48690 | and which among us does not know that the Religion of the Perfect Woman was only invented by ourselves for the better suppression of man? |
48690 | and you can look unconcerned?'' |
48690 | are you mad? |
48690 | asked Lord Chester, smiling,''to invert the thing? |
48690 | cried Constance, giving her cousin her hand,''is this prudent? |
48690 | old? |
48690 | or for old women who marry young men against their will?'' |
48690 | or would they come over? |
48690 | painted? |
48690 | ruddled? |
48690 | she repeated in mockery;''what is the good of people going to church if they fly in the face of all religion? |
48690 | was he a wizard, this lover of hers? |
48690 | what can they do?'' |
48690 | what could be said? |
48690 | what did you expect?'' |
48690 | what fate are you preparing for yourself?'' |
48690 | what would he have? |
48690 | what would the Duchess say? |
48690 | whence the apathy at Church services?--whence should they come but from the forced idleness, the lack of interest in life?'' |
48690 | whence the love of the table-- that vice which stains our manhood? |
48690 | would you not follow me?'' |
1971 | ''Well, well,''I shall say,''have you any kidneys?'' 1971 ''You have no mother?'' |
1971 | Afforestedtoo? |
1971 | Am I to go on or stop? |
1971 | And Panky-- what about him? |
1971 | And did not this heartless wretch, knowing how hungry you must both be, let you have a quail or two as an act of pardonable charity? |
1971 | And he must have changed his dress? |
1971 | And he never said anything about the other money he left for me-- which enabled me to marry at once? 1971 And he?" |
1971 | And how about Hanky? |
1971 | And how many skeletons do you suppose are lying at the bottom of this pool? |
1971 | And now please, how long have you been married? |
1971 | And now, my boy,he said to a very frank and ingenuous youth about half way up the class,"and how is truth best reached?" |
1971 | And our father planned all this, without saying a word to me about it while we were on our way up here? |
1971 | And that is why you tried to find me at Fairmead? |
1971 | And the people at Sunch''ston? 1971 And the third man?" |
1971 | And what are you going to do about the four black and white horses? |
1971 | And what do they say in Sunch''ston about our father''s second visit? |
1971 | And what, pray, have you done with all these things? |
1971 | And what, pray, my man,he said somewhat peremptorily to my father,"are those two plucked quails doing? |
1971 | And what,said George,"did my father, as I shall always call him, say to all this? |
1971 | And who, in the name of all that we hold most sacred, do you take him to have been-- for I see you know more than you have yet told me? |
1971 | And why not? |
1971 | And yet, is there not reason? 1971 And you are not yet quite twenty?" |
1971 | And you have duly punished her for it? |
1971 | And you said? |
1971 | Any family? |
1971 | Are we to foster the belief that it was indeed the Sunchild who interrupted Hanky''s sermon? |
1971 | Are you going to say anything to the Professors? |
1971 | At what o''clock? |
1971 | Because yesterday-- was it not?--was the first of the two days agreed upon between you and our father? |
1971 | Bless my heart-- what? 1971 But did he,"I asked,"try to prick the bubble of Sunchildism?" |
1971 | But he saw that even though Higgs were to shew himself and say who he was, it would mean death to himself and no good to any one else? |
1971 | But surely you believe me? |
1971 | But this,said Yram,"being gold, is a large sum: can you indeed spare it, and do you really wish George to have it all?" |
1971 | But were there,I said,"any storks?" |
1971 | But where and how? |
1971 | But you did not know this when I was walking with you on Friday? |
1971 | But you knew who I was when you called me Panky in the temple? |
1971 | But, Mayoress,said Panky, who had not opened his lips so far,"are you sure that you are not too hasty in believing this stranger to be the Sunchild? |
1971 | Can you ask Mrs. Humdrum to bring her grand- daughter with her to- morrow evening? |
1971 | Can you not trust me to take everything as said? |
1971 | Did the King,I asked,"increase your salary?" |
1971 | Did you examine the man''s boots? |
1971 | Did you go to Erewhon, and were you ill- treated there? |
1971 | Did you really see him ascend? |
1971 | Do I understand, then,said Yram, as I suppose we may as well call her,"that you were out all last night? |
1971 | Do you know how he had been spending the last two days or so before he got down to your hut? |
1971 | Do you mean to say that my father left me this by his will? |
1971 | Do you think we shall ever get rid of Sunchildism altogether? |
1971 | Have you met any suspicious characters between here and the statues? |
1971 | How can I look him in the face? |
1971 | How did you know,said she,"that he was Professor Panky? |
1971 | How do you do, Professor Panky? |
1971 | How long did he stay with you? |
1971 | How long,he said to himself,"will it be before they are at one another''s throats?" |
1971 | I intend to report every word of it; but that is not the point: the question is what you gentlemen will swear to? |
1971 | I know the tree; have you got the nuggets here? |
1971 | I know you would; but you remember Mrs. Humdrum? 1971 I suppose he had a dark complexion and black hair like the rest of us?" |
1971 | I suppose the blanket and the rest of the kit are still in the tree? |
1971 | I understand, then,said George, appearing to take no notice of Hanky''s innuendo,"that you will swear to the facts as you have above stated them?" |
1971 | I will be obedience itself-- but you will not ask me to do anything that will make your mother or you think less well of me? |
1971 | If Satan himself is at times transformed into an angel of light, are not angels of light sometimes transformed into the likeness of Satan? 1971 In what part of the preserves?" |
1971 | Is my father with you? |
1971 | It is a pity you should do that,said Hanky musingly:"the things are interesting as curiosities, and-- and-- and-- what will you take for them?" |
1971 | My dear Mayoress, how can you ask such a question? 1971 No one in the house knows of your having run this errand for me?" |
1971 | Now tell me,said George, glad to change the subject,"what will those three men do about what you said to them last night? |
1971 | Now, my boys,he said,"Why is it so necessary to avoid extremes of truthfulness?" |
1971 | Of course he was swarthy like the rest of us? |
1971 | On the other hand, what business have I with''would be''or''would not be?'' 1971 Or when we are waking, how powerfully does not the life we are living in others pain or delight us, according as others think ill or well of us? |
1971 | Shall I have to see him? |
1971 | Shall I say more now,she said, seeing how grave he looked,"or shall I leave you, and talk further with you to- morrow?" |
1971 | Talking of the Sunchild,said Panky;"did you ever see him?" |
1971 | Tell the King? |
1971 | That you are to be canonised at the close of the year along with Professors Hanky and Panky? |
1971 | The light hurts you? |
1971 | Then the poacher is still at large? |
1971 | Then you have come all this way for me, when you were wanting to get married? |
1971 | Then you would have us uphold Sunchildism, knowing it to be untrue? |
1971 | Then, sir, had I not better leave you? |
1971 | There is nothing in it; but what were your measurements? |
1971 | This,he said,"is a solemn covenant, is it not?" |
1971 | Was his manner friendly? |
1971 | What are you doing here among the common people? 1971 What could we do? |
1971 | What did he say to this? |
1971 | What do you think, Panky,he added, turning to his brother Professor,"had we not better stay here till sunrise? |
1971 | What gift can be more invaluable? |
1971 | What have I done to deserve so much goodwill? 1971 What if they are? |
1971 | What is the matter? |
1971 | What monstrous absurdity is this? |
1971 | What were his words? |
1971 | What, my dearest mother, does all this mean? 1971 What,"he said to me, very coherently and quietly,"was I to do? |
1971 | When did you tell the King? |
1971 | When shall you see him? |
1971 | Where did you meet him? |
1971 | Who ever heard the Sunchild claim relationship with the air- god? 1971 Who, sir, will believe anything else? |
1971 | Why, can you not see? |
1971 | Will you hold up yours, Professor Hanky,said George,"if I release you?" |
1971 | Would that be a bargain? |
1971 | Yes( with a blush),"and are you?" |
1971 | Yes, but where in the world were you? |
1971 | Yes,was the answer,"but a man can dye his hair, can he not? |
1971 | Yesterday? 1971 You are sure they had been killing quails?" |
1971 | You hear that, Hanky? 1971 You know me?" |
1971 | You say your wife is dead, and that she left you with a son-- is he like George? |
1971 | ''Can this man,''he asked,''be said to have been truly born till many a long year after he had been reputed as truly dead? |
1971 | *****"Now what,"said Panky as they went upstairs,"does that woman mean-- for she means something? |
1971 | 3, and the hour noon as near as may be?" |
1971 | After a time he said,"And what do you good people hereabouts think of next Sunday''s grand doings?" |
1971 | After some little silence my father said,"And may I ask what name your mother gave you?" |
1971 | After such a day, and such an evening, how could any one have slept? |
1971 | Almost immediately, Dr. Downie said,"And now, Mr, Higgs, tell us, as a man of the world, what we are to do about Sunchildism?" |
1971 | Am I on my head or my heels?" |
1971 | Am I, or am I not, to have the sworn depositions of both you gentlemen to the fact that the prisoner is the man you saw with quails in his possession? |
1971 | And how about the quails he had so innocently killed? |
1971 | And how many more had he not in like manner brought to the verge of idiocy? |
1971 | And how was he to get enough Erewhonian money to keep him going till he could find some safe means of selling a few of his nuggets? |
1971 | And how, my dearest boy, as I look upon you, can I feign repentance? |
1971 | And now, may I tell my mother that you will put yourself in her, and the Mayor''s, and my, hands, and will do whatever we tell you?" |
1971 | And should he have to be thrown into the Blue Pool by George after all? |
1971 | And that son? |
1971 | And the young? |
1971 | And what bird did those bones belong to which I see lying by the fire with the flesh all eaten off them? |
1971 | And why had Coldharbour become Sunchildston? |
1971 | Are the under- rangers allowed not only to wear the forbidden dress but to eat the King''s quails as well?" |
1971 | As for current gossip, people would talk, and if the lad was well begotten, what could it matter to them whose son he was? |
1971 | As soon as it was over George said:-"Are you quite sure you have made no mistake about the way in which you got the permit out of the Professors?" |
1971 | As soon as my father could speak he said,"But how did your mother find out that I was in Erewhon?" |
1971 | As the singers kept on repeating the question, I kept on saying sorrowfully to myself--''Ah, where, where, where?'' |
1971 | At any rate you will have sausages?'' |
1971 | But I hope you had enough provisions with you?" |
1971 | But I suppose the snow is all gone by this time?" |
1971 | But on Friday evening? |
1971 | But what about the Mayor?" |
1971 | But who can say? |
1971 | But why would not my mother let your father tell me? |
1971 | But would you not like to send some present to the Mayor, Yram, their other children, and Mrs. Humdrum''s grand- daughter?" |
1971 | By the way, you have received no illumination this morning, have you?" |
1971 | CHAPTER IX: INTERVIEW BETWEEN YRAM AND HER SON"What did you think of Panky?" |
1971 | Can any one believe that he would go on rolling that stone year after year and seeing it roll down again unless he liked seeing it? |
1971 | Can there be a doubt that the vicarious life is the more efficient? |
1971 | Can you do this? |
1971 | Can you interpret?" |
1971 | Did he say anything about Higgs?" |
1971 | Did he say in what part of the preserves he had been?" |
1971 | Did he talk to you about me?" |
1971 | Did he tell you so?" |
1971 | Do they believe as you and I do, or did they merely go with the times? |
1971 | Do we mind this? |
1971 | Do you mean to Blue- Pool the Professors or no?" |
1971 | Do you remember the drink you taught us to make of corn parched and ground? |
1971 | Do you see him? |
1971 | Do you see the head- boy-- the third of those that are coming up the path? |
1971 | Do you think they would have stood his being jobbed into the rangership by any one else but Yram?" |
1971 | Does the child never break anything by accident?" |
1971 | For had it not been irresistible, was it to be believed that astute men like Hanky and Panky would have let themselves be drawn into it? |
1971 | For to live is to be influenced, as well as to influence; and when a man is dead how can he be influenced? |
1971 | George laughed, and said,"On purpose to hide?" |
1971 | Had their views about machinery also changed? |
1971 | Had this been the meaning of his having followed him to Fairmead? |
1971 | Has it got well about among them, in spite of your admirable article, that it was the Sunchild himself who interrupted Hanky?" |
1971 | Has yours been different?" |
1971 | Have I said enough, or shall I say more?" |
1971 | Have you any decided opinions upon the subject?" |
1971 | Have you any red mullets?'' |
1971 | He then added, appealing to Panky, who was on the Mayoress''s left hand,"but we had rather a strange adventure on our way down, had we not, Panky? |
1971 | He then turned to his class and said--"And now tell me what did the Sunchild tell us about God and Mammon?" |
1971 | How can I thank you?" |
1971 | How can she detect lying in other people unless she has had some experience of it in her own practice? |
1971 | How could it be that when the means of resistance were so ample and so easy, the movement should nevertheless have been irresistible? |
1971 | How could she doubt? |
1971 | How could your mother have found out by that time that I was in Erewhon? |
1971 | How did he know but that Hanky and Panky might have driven over from Sunch''ston to see Mr. Turvey, and might put up at this very house? |
1971 | How do you know that the foot- tracks were made by the prisoner?" |
1971 | How many such stories, sometimes very plausibly told, have we not had during the last twenty years? |
1971 | How, again, had they converted the King-- if they had converted him? |
1971 | How, he wondered, were they getting on, and what had they done with the things they had bought from him? |
1971 | Humdrum?" |
1971 | Humdrum?" |
1971 | I have done you nothing but harm?" |
1971 | I must not stay another moment; but tell me this much, have you seen any signs of poachers lately?" |
1971 | I remember having heard an anthem in my young days,''O where shall wisdom be found? |
1971 | I wonder which of them it was? |
1971 | If the devil is not so black as he is painted, is God always so white? |
1971 | If they had been wrong in thinking such a thing impossible, in how much else might they not be mistaken also? |
1971 | In what part of the preserves did you fall in with him?" |
1971 | Is it because you think I am like your son, or is there some other reason?" |
1971 | It a man and a woman might rise from the earth and disappear into the sky, what else might not happen? |
1971 | Let us now talk about this morning-- did you mean to declare yourself?" |
1971 | Look at this thigh- bone; was there ever a quail with such a bone as that?" |
1971 | Luncheon being over I said--"And are you married?" |
1971 | May I ask which of you two gentlemen is Professor Hanky, and which Professor Panky?" |
1971 | Might they not be as mistaken, as they had just proved to be about the tracks? |
1971 | Miss La Frime to Mrs. Humdrum:"You know how he got his professorship? |
1971 | No? |
1971 | Now what does the man"( who on enquiry my father found to be none other than Mr. Turvey himself)"say about honesty?" |
1971 | Now, how, I wonder, did he find that out?" |
1971 | Now, tell me what I asked you-- Why are you here?" |
1971 | On what dust- heap had it not been thrown how many long years ago? |
1971 | On which side of Panky did Hanky sit, and did they sit north and south or east and west? |
1971 | Or was there an exception made about any machine that he had himself carried? |
1971 | Panky assented, but then, turning sharply to my father, he said,"My man, what are you doing in the forbidden dress? |
1971 | Panky did not hold up his, whereon Hanky said,"Hold up your hands, Panky, ca n''t you? |
1971 | Presently Hanky said to my father quite civilly,"And what, my good man, do you propose to do with all these things? |
1971 | Presently Yram turned to Hanky and said--"By the way, Professor, you must have found it very cold up at the statues, did you not? |
1971 | Presently he smiled, and said,"Of course I do, but it is you who should forgive me, for was it not all my fault?" |
1971 | She laughed genially as she added,"Can you throw any light upon the question whether I am likely to get my three dozen? |
1971 | Should I not speak out, come what may, when I see a whole people being led astray by those who are merely exploiting them for their own ends? |
1971 | Should the body prove, as no doubt it would, to be that of the Sunchild, what is to become of Sunchildism?" |
1971 | Should we not first settle, not what, but who, we shall allow the prisoner to be, when he is brought up to- morrow morning? |
1971 | Something, therefore, he would say, but what? |
1971 | The felt or the unfelt? |
1971 | Then I may say to my mother that you will be good and give no trouble-- not even though we bid you shake hands with Hanky and Panky?" |
1971 | Then how about the watch? |
1971 | Then she had never forgotten him? |
1971 | Then the Mayor doubtless had light hair too; but why did not those wretches say in which month Yram was married? |
1971 | Then to my father,"How many brace have you got?" |
1971 | Then turning to his grandfather, he said,"You have the record of Mr. Higgs''s marks and measurements? |
1971 | Then, turning to my father, he said,"You can see this, my man, can you not, as soon as it is pointed out to you?" |
1971 | Then, turning to the Ranger, he said,"I gather, then, that your mother does not think so badly of the Sunchild after all?" |
1971 | Though I could do but little, ought I not to do that little? |
1971 | To- day is Thursday-- it is the twenty- ninth, is it not? |
1971 | To- morrow we can rest; what, I wonder, can we do on Saturday? |
1971 | Was he being lured on to his destruction by some malicious fiend, or befriended by one who had compassion on him and wished him well? |
1971 | Was there anything strange about his way of talking?" |
1971 | Was there ever any lunatic, and was he found?" |
1971 | Were you to deliver them plucked? |
1971 | What can I say to thank you?" |
1971 | What completer proof can we have that livingness consists in deed rather than in consciousness of deed? |
1971 | What could an eagle matter on the liver of a man whose body covered nine acres? |
1971 | What could it all mean? |
1971 | What could it matter to them whether the sieves got full or no? |
1971 | What could she think? |
1971 | What day of the week do you make it?" |
1971 | What did my own instinct answer? |
1971 | What did that good fellow''s instinct-- so straight from heaven, so true, so healthy-- tell him? |
1971 | What evidence can you have of this but the word of a foreign devil in such straits that he would swear to anything?" |
1971 | What is coming?" |
1971 | What man of ordinary feeling would not under these circumstances have tried to dissuade them from deposing as they have done?" |
1971 | What o''clock do you make it?" |
1971 | What other children has she besides yourself?" |
1971 | What other like fatal error might he not ignorantly commit? |
1971 | What then had been its inner history? |
1971 | What though Tantalus found the water shun him and the fruits fly from him when he tried to seize them? |
1971 | What was he to say when people asked him, as they were sure to do, how he was living? |
1971 | What were the Danaids doing but that which each one of us has to do during his or her whole life? |
1971 | What will you swear to?" |
1971 | What would have happened if he had tried to sell them in Coldharbour? |
1971 | What would the conscience of any honourable man answer? |
1971 | When the servants had left the room, Yram said to Hanky,"You saw the prisoner, and he was the man you met on Thursday night?" |
1971 | When you were born he took to you at once, as, indeed, who could help doing? |
1971 | Where do you think I may be mistaken?" |
1971 | Where is the Act?" |
1971 | Where is your dear mother? |
1971 | Which is his truest life-- the one he is leading in them, or that equally unconscious life residing in his own sleeping body? |
1971 | Which will carry the day?" |
1971 | Which, then, of this man''s two lives should we deem best worth having, if we could choose one or other, but not both? |
1971 | Who can doubt? |
1971 | Who could tell but that he might see Panky too? |
1971 | Who did he say he was?" |
1971 | Who has ever partaken of this life you speak of, and re- entered into the womb to tell us of it? |
1971 | Why are you not in ranger''s uniform, and what is the meaning of all those quails?" |
1971 | Why bring a smaller charge when you must inflict the death penalty on a more serious one? |
1971 | Why did you not send me word when you found what had happened? |
1971 | Why do you wish us all well so very heartily? |
1971 | Why have you come here?" |
1971 | Why have you not taken your place in one of the seats reserved for our distinguished visitors? |
1971 | Why not have left us to find it out or to know nothing about it? |
1971 | Why should I? |
1971 | Why was this?" |
1971 | Why, I wonder, could not the Queen have put the clothes on a dummy that would show back from front? |
1971 | Will they pay any attention to it?" |
1971 | You do not know who they were? |
1971 | You here, again, Mr. Higgs? |
1971 | You know, perhaps, that Professor Hanky, whose name I see on your permit, tried to burn her alive?" |
1971 | You like her as a wife for George?" |
1971 | and is it not God- given as much as instinct? |
1971 | but why?" |
1971 | he asked;"and what, pray, do you think it all was?" |
1971 | he had said with a laugh,"what does it matter?" |
1971 | look at his blue eyes and his eyelashes?" |
1971 | or come after me? |
1971 | said I,"what have you been telling the King?" |
1971 | shouted Hanky;"do you mean to murder us?" |
1971 | what temple?" |
1971 | what was that? |
3261 | And am I not? |
3261 | And can you tell me in what kind of way the war was carried on? |
3261 | And history? |
3261 | And how much arithmetic and mathematics do you know now? |
3261 | And how old are you now? |
3261 | And lesser outbreaks of violence,said I,"how do you deal with them? |
3261 | And people put up with this? |
3261 | And the older languages? |
3261 | And then? |
3261 | And they put up with that? |
3261 | Are you? 3261 Besides the villages, are there any scattered country houses?" |
3261 | But as to these days,I said;"you do n''t mean to tell me that no one ever transgresses this habit of good fellowship?" |
3261 | But do you think,said I,"that there is any fear of a work- famine amongst you?" |
3261 | But how did the people, the revolutionists, carry on the war? 3261 But please tell me,"said I,"how can they afford it?" |
3261 | But what did you mean by easy- hard work? |
3261 | But what happened? 3261 But why not for you?" |
3261 | But would the soldiers have acted against the people in this way? |
3261 | But you have n''t weighed it,said I,"and-- and how much am I to take?" |
3261 | But you will take me along, wo n''t you, Dick? |
3261 | Can you now tell me how you have come to this happy condition? 3261 Certainly,"said he;"how else could we settle them? |
3261 | Clara here? |
3261 | Come now,said Dick,"am I likely to? |
3261 | Could you tell me rather more closely what actually took place? |
3261 | Dear neighbour,said the girl, with the most solemn countenance of a child playing at keeping shop,"what tobacco is it you would like?" |
3261 | Did the change, the''revolution''it used to be called, come peacefully? |
3261 | Did they even try to? |
3261 | Do n''t you drink a glass to us, dear little neighbours? |
3261 | Do the women work at it in silk dresses? |
3261 | Do you mean actual fighting with weapons? |
3261 | Do you? |
3261 | Does it? |
3261 | Does not that make the world duller? |
3261 | Education? |
3261 | For instance, what can you make of this, neighbours? 3261 Have they any children?" |
3261 | Heaven? |
3261 | How about those ameliorations,said I;"what were they? |
3261 | How could we have them,said he,"since there is no rich class to breed enemies against the state by means of the injustice of the state?" |
3261 | How do you mean? |
3261 | How is that managed? |
3261 | How old should you say that neighbour will be? |
3261 | How so? |
3261 | I have heard that it was so,said I"but what followed?" |
3261 | I suppose,said I,"power of some sort is used there?" |
3261 | I think I do understand,said I:"but now, as it seems, you have reversed all this?" |
3261 | I was expecting Dick and Clara to make their appearance any moment: but is there time to ask just one or two questions before they come? |
3261 | Is it strange to sympathise with the year and its gains and losses? |
3261 | Is it? |
3261 | Is the house in question empty? |
3261 | Is this what you have had in your mind, guest? |
3261 | Let us go and see them,said Clara;"that is, if you are not in a hurry to get to Streatley, Walter?" |
3261 | Look, guest,said Dick;"does n''t it all look like one of those very stories out of Grimm that we were talking about up in Bloomsbury? |
3261 | Lose me? |
3261 | My friend here wants tobacco and a pipe; can you help him? |
3261 | No offence, guest-- no offence,said he;"but let me ask you; you like that, do you?" |
3261 | No reward of labour? |
3261 | Now may I ask you about the position of women in your society? |
3261 | O, you do, do you? |
3261 | O,said Dick,"so you know my old kinsman Hammond?" |
3261 | O,said I, somewhat startled,"so the civil war went on, in spite of all that had happened?" |
3261 | Of course it is,said he,"but do you care so much for that?" |
3261 | Of course,said he;"what was I thinking of, not asking you before? |
3261 | Peacefully? |
3261 | People? |
3261 | Phalangsteries, eh? |
3261 | Question two,said the carle:"Are you not on the whole much freer, more energetic-- in a word, healthier and happier-- for it?" |
3261 | Really? |
3261 | School? |
3261 | Smoke? |
3261 | So,said I,"you consider crime a mere spasmodic disease, which requires no body of criminal law to deal with it?" |
3261 | Still? |
3261 | Strangely? |
3261 | Tell me in detail,said I,"what lies east of Bloomsbury now?" |
3261 | Tell me, then,said I,"how is it towards the east?" |
3261 | There''s no dog; or have you trodden on a thorn and hurt your foot? |
3261 | Very good,said I;"but what happens if the divisions are still narrow?" |
3261 | Very well,I said;"but about this woman question? |
3261 | Well,said I,"about the children; when they know how to read and write, do n''t they learn something else-- languages, for instance?" |
3261 | Well,said I,"that is understood, and I agree with it; but how about crimes of violence? |
3261 | Well,said I,"what else do they learn? |
3261 | Well,said he,"were you forced to learn arithmetic and mathematics?" |
3261 | Well? |
3261 | Well? |
3261 | Were they? |
3261 | What building is that? |
3261 | What could the Government have done? 3261 What have_ we_ done with it?" |
3261 | What is it used for now? |
3261 | What question? |
3261 | What stood in the way of this? |
3261 | What''s that you are saying? 3261 What''s that?" |
3261 | What''s the matter? |
3261 | What, of the bludgeoners? |
3261 | What, old Greylocks? |
3261 | When did this new revolution gather head? |
3261 | While they were alive? |
3261 | Who do you mean by''they,''dear child? |
3261 | Why do you sigh? |
3261 | Why is it meaningless to you? |
3261 | Why not old people also? |
3261 | Why, what have you done with it? |
3261 | Why? |
3261 | Why? |
3261 | Will I not? |
3261 | Yes,I said,"but consider, must not the safety of society be safeguarded by some punishment?" |
3261 | Yes,said Dick,"and I am rather surprised at this time of the year; why are they not haymaking with you?" |
3261 | Yes,said Ellen,"I thought you would do that, so I have brought a rudder for my boat: will you help me to ship it, please?" |
3261 | Yes,said the old man,"the world was being brought to its second birth; how could that take place without a tragedy? |
3261 | Yes,she said, looking very much astonished,"Do n''t you?" |
3261 | Yes-- and then? |
3261 | You seem to think that it will not last? |
3261 | You think that enough? |
3261 | _ Would_ you like it? |
3261 | ( H.) Anything else? |
3261 | ( H.) But if the French had conquered, would they not have taken more still from the English workmen? |
3261 | ( H.) If Parliament was not the government then, nor the people either, what was the government? |
3261 | ( H.) If the government habitually destroyed wealth, the country must have been poor? |
3261 | ( H.) It was said; but was anyone expected to believe this? |
3261 | ( H.) Then if the French had invaded England and conquered it, they would not have allowed the English workmen to live well? |
3261 | ( H.) Therefore the government really existed for the destruction of wealth? |
3261 | ( H.) To what extent did the people manage their own affairs? |
3261 | ( H.) What must happen if in a poor country some people insist on being rich at the expense of the others? |
3261 | ( H.) Yet amidst this poverty the persons for the sake of whom the government existed insisted on being rich whatever might happen? |
3261 | ( H.) You see the consequences of that fact? |
3261 | ( Hammond) What was the government of those days? |
3261 | ( I) Can you tell me? |
3261 | A terrible tyranny our Communism, is it not? |
3261 | After a pause, I said:"Your big towns, now; how about them? |
3261 | All this misery, then, was caused by the destructive government of which we have been speaking? |
3261 | Am I not the most tolerant man in the world? |
3261 | Am I not to go up to the North with you? |
3261 | Am I to have my work, or rather your work? |
3261 | And I suppose that this massacre put an end to the whole revolution for that time?" |
3261 | And have n''t you specially called me to notice that the people about the roads and streets look happy? |
3261 | And is it really true that nothing came of it?" |
3261 | And so on we went up the Thames still-- or whither? |
3261 | And the girl?" |
3261 | And what is the glorious hall there, and what is the building on the south side?" |
3261 | And yet--( H.) Yet what? |
3261 | Are we not good enough to paint ourselves? |
3261 | Are you going to take your guest to Oxford?" |
3261 | Are you shocked now?" |
3261 | As we got out of the boat, I said to Dick--"Is it the old house we are going to?" |
3261 | As why should he not if he likes? |
3261 | But again, think if the destruction or serious injury of a man momentarily overcome by wrath or folly can be any atonement to the commonwealth? |
3261 | But did not the government defend its rich men against other nations? |
3261 | But for what other purpose than the protection of the rich from the poor, the strong from the weak, did this Government exist? |
3261 | But have you no laws of the market, so to say-- no regulation for the exchange of wares? |
3261 | But he had, and turned to me smiling, and said:"Yes, why not? |
3261 | But in the meantime, what do you positively mean to assert about the pleasurableness of work amongst you?" |
3261 | But now had n''t we better make haste to see your great- grandfather?" |
3261 | But tell me, how do you manage, and how have you come to this state of things?" |
3261 | But what is to be done? |
3261 | But what share have you got with the Refusers, pretty neighbour?" |
3261 | But what then? |
3261 | CHAPTER XIII: CONCERNING POLITICS Said I:"How do you manage with politics?" |
3261 | CHAPTER XIV: HOW MATTERS ARE MANAGED Said I:"How about your relations with foreign nations?" |
3261 | Can you now tell me anything of your progress after the years of the struggle?" |
3261 | Clara sat in her place and did not look round, but presently she said, with just the least stiffness in her tone:"How shall we divide? |
3261 | Come, does n''t it all look very pretty? |
3261 | Come, what is wrong with you?" |
3261 | Dick looked thoughtful, and said:"Strange, neighbour? |
3261 | Dick seemed grown a little absent, but he could not forbear giving me an architectural note, and said:"It is rather an ugly old building, is n''t it? |
3261 | Did not their cleverness and facility in production master this chaos of misery at last? |
3261 | Do n''t you remember, Clara?" |
3261 | Do n''t you see that she is dressed deliciously for this beautiful weather? |
3261 | Do n''t you see what it means? |
3261 | Do n''t you think he will look younger after a little time with us?" |
3261 | Do n''t you think so, neighbour?" |
3261 | Do you assert that there are none?" |
3261 | Do you follow me?" |
3261 | Do you mean the tide? |
3261 | Do you mind?" |
3261 | Do you still like, it, eh?" |
3261 | Do you still use them?" |
3261 | Do you understand this now? |
3261 | Do you want further explanation?" |
3261 | Do you wonder at it? |
3261 | Does it seem to you as if we starved ourselves of food in order to make ourselves fine clothes? |
3261 | For instance, did the English Government defend the English citizen against the French? |
3261 | Had a poor man a good chance of defending his property and person in them? |
3261 | Had you any inkling of all this?" |
3261 | Has republicanism finally triumphed? |
3261 | Have I not told you that we know what a prison means by the undoubted evidence of really trustworthy books, helped out by our own imaginations? |
3261 | Have you not read any of the medical books on the subject?" |
3261 | He gave me good- day very civilly, and greeting his friend joyously, said:"Well, Dick, what is it this morning? |
3261 | He looked at me thoughtfully, almost anxiously, as he said in a changed voice,"Might I ask you where you come from, as you are so clearly a stranger?" |
3261 | He looked puzzled, and said,"How much? |
3261 | He said:"I suppose you know pretty well what the process of government was in the bad old times?" |
3261 | He sat musing for a little, and then started and said:"Are there any more questions, dear guest? |
3261 | His estimate of the life of the nineteenth century made me catch my breath a little; and I said feebly,"But the labour- saving machines?" |
3261 | How could it possibly be but that maternity should be highly honoured amongst us? |
3261 | How could people be so cruel to themselves?" |
3261 | How do you feel about your first visit to these waters?" |
3261 | How is it that we find the dreadful times of the past so interesting to us-- in pictures and poetry?" |
3261 | I blushed, and said, stammering,"Please do n''t take it amiss if I ask you; I mean no offence: but what ought I to pay you? |
3261 | I found myself saying, almost against my will,"How old is it?" |
3261 | I laughed, and said:"So that you now withdraw your admission, and say that there is no violence amongst you?" |
3261 | I mused silently; but at last I said--"What is to come after this?" |
3261 | I played the innocent and said:"In what direction could they improve, if not in livelihood?" |
3261 | I said aloud, though more to myself than to Hammond,"Well, how could they be better than the age that made them?" |
3261 | I said falteringly:"I was saying to myself, The past, the present? |
3261 | I said,"I need not ask if this is a market, for I see clearly that it is; but what market is it that it is so splendid? |
3261 | I said,"O; and legislation? |
3261 | I said,"Yes, that is so; but how can everybody afford such costly garments? |
3261 | I said--"go back again? |
3261 | I said:"We have heard about London and the manufacturing districts and the ordinary towns: how about the villages?" |
3261 | I saw at the Guest House that the women were waiting on the men: that seems a little like reaction does n''t it?" |
3261 | I suppose they do n''t all learn history?" |
3261 | I suppose you came into the Guest House after I had gone to bed last night?" |
3261 | I suppose you have swept those away entirely?" |
3261 | I suppose you like it?" |
3261 | I suppose you will sleep in the old city?" |
3261 | I thanked him, and said:"Are these the regular country people? |
3261 | I took it out of her hand to look at it, and while I did so, forgot my caution, and said,"But however am I to pay for such a thing as this?" |
3261 | I was going to say,"But is this the Thames?" |
3261 | Is any of that left?" |
3261 | Is it a wasp?" |
3261 | Is it not so?" |
3261 | Is it not so?" |
3261 | Is it so, dear guest?" |
3261 | Is n''t it a jewel of a house after its kind? |
3261 | Is n''t that what politics used to mean?" |
3261 | Is that not enough?" |
3261 | Is that so, Dick?" |
3261 | Is that so, literally?" |
3261 | Is there any need to enforce that commandment by violence?" |
3261 | It is not a mere matter of strength getting on quickly with such work; is it, guest?" |
3261 | It looks fine from here, does n''t it? |
3261 | Let me change the subject, and ask you what the stately building is on our left just showing at the end of that grove of plane- trees?" |
3261 | Look there,"and she pointed northwest,"do n''t you see building going on there?" |
3261 | May I?" |
3261 | My friend, ca n''t you see that such a proceeding means ignoring the fact of_ growth_, bodily and mental? |
3261 | Now really, do n''t you_ find_ it( apart from all theory, you know) much changed for the worse?" |
3261 | Only, what were you thinking of just now?" |
3261 | Or indeed_ was_ it a dream? |
3261 | Or where do you house your present Parliament?" |
3261 | Or will the death of the slayer bring the slain man to life again and cure the unhappiness his loss has caused?" |
3261 | Or,"she said quickly,"are you thinking that you must soon go back again? |
3261 | Perhaps you, guest, would like a swim before we sit down to what I fancy will be a pretty long feast?" |
3261 | Queer names, ai n''t they?" |
3261 | Quoth I:"But have you no prisons at all now?" |
3261 | Revolution having brought its foredoomed change about, how can you prevent the counter- revolution from setting in except by making people happy? |
3261 | Said Clara demurely, but not stiffly:"Is she a good fairy, Dick?" |
3261 | Said I:"And you settle these differences, great and small, by the will of the majority, I suppose?" |
3261 | Said I:"But suppose the man has a habit of violence,--kills a man a year, for instance?" |
3261 | Said I:"But you do n''t mean that children learn all these things?" |
3261 | Said I:"Could I get some tobacco and a pipe?" |
3261 | Said I:"How about the smaller towns? |
3261 | Said I:"In passing, may I ask if it is still a place of learning?" |
3261 | Said I:"That beautiful girl, is he going to be married to her?" |
3261 | Said I:"The regular soldiers? |
3261 | Said I:"Was there not a serious danger of such moneys being misused-- of jobbery, in fact?" |
3261 | Said he:"First of all( excuse my catechising), is there competition in life, after the old kind, in the country whence you come?" |
3261 | Shall I put you ashore at once, or would you like to go down to Putney before breakfast?" |
3261 | Shall we commit such a folly, then? |
3261 | Shall we have out Greylocks and trot back to Hammersmith? |
3261 | Shall we the neighbours make it worse still? |
3261 | She blushed and said:"How old am I, do you think?" |
3261 | She laughed out musically, and we followed suit in our gruffer voices; and then she said:"Of course I do, neighbour; do n''t you?" |
3261 | She seemed rather surprised, and even slightly indignant, and said:"Well, well, what''s the matter? |
3261 | She welcomed us and said, smiling:"So you are come up from the water to see the Obstinate Refusers: where are you going haymaking, neighbours?" |
3261 | Should she not have said the contrast of the present with the future: of blind despair with hope?" |
3261 | So I put my hand into my waistcoat- pocket, and said,"How much?" |
3261 | So I said:"And south of the river, what is it like?" |
3261 | So you see,"said he, looking at Dick and me,"we really could n''t go haymaking, could we, neighbours? |
3261 | Such follies would make an agreeable market, would n''t they?" |
3261 | That''s what these pictures and poems do; and why should n''t they?" |
3261 | That''s what you mean, is n''t it, by giving me the negative side of your good conditions?" |
3261 | That_ punishment_ of which men used to talk so wisely and act so foolishly, what was it but the expression of their fear? |
3261 | The child seemed rather dashed, and said,"Do n''t you like it, neighbour?" |
3261 | The human nature of paupers, of slaves, of slave- holders, or the human nature of wealthy freemen? |
3261 | The morning is waning fast amidst my garrulity?" |
3261 | The old man sat silent for a little, but presently recovered himself and took comfort in his old phrase of"Well, you like it so, do you?" |
3261 | The old man smiled, and said nothing; but Dick turned rather red, and broke out:"What_ do_ you mean, guest? |
3261 | The old man stopped short, and looked at her and said:"You really like it then?" |
3261 | The sculler noted my eager astonished look, and said, as if in answer to my thoughts--"Yes, it_ is_ a pretty bridge, is n''t it? |
3261 | Then he turned to me, and said:"Do you remember anything like that, guest, in the country from which you come?" |
3261 | Then said Hammond:"Does anything especially puzzle you about our way of living, now you have heard a good deal and seen a little of it?" |
3261 | Then there were other combatants against the people?" |
3261 | To her quoth Dick:"Maiden, would you kindly hold our horse while we go in for a little?" |
3261 | Was it really the Parliament or any part of it? |
3261 | Was that what you would say, my friend?" |
3261 | Well, what are you going to ask me next?" |
3261 | Were people satisfied with the new order of things when it came?" |
3261 | Were they not always careful about this little stream which now adds so much pleasantness to the country side? |
3261 | Were they places of fair dealing according to the ideas of the day? |
3261 | What could I say? |
3261 | What did you think of the looks of the people whom you have come across to- day?" |
3261 | What do we think of it now? |
3261 | What do you mean?" |
3261 | What do you say to that, eh?" |
3261 | What do you think of those two expedients?" |
3261 | What do you think?" |
3261 | What do you think?" |
3261 | What excuse have you to make for your slavish punctuality? |
3261 | What has all that got to do with us?" |
3261 | What is it used for now?" |
3261 | What is the object of Revolution? |
3261 | What is to be done?" |
3261 | What kind of a government have you? |
3261 | What more can we ask of life?" |
3261 | What were the elements of success on their side?" |
3261 | What will it matter if you do? |
3261 | What would you like to do? |
3261 | When he was well gone, I said:"Is it wrong to ask what Mr. Boffin is? |
3261 | When she was gone, Dick said"Now guest, wo n''t you ask a question or two of our friend here? |
3261 | Where do we meet, then? |
3261 | Where is your bag?" |
3261 | Which? |
3261 | Who knows but I may not have been talking to many people? |
3261 | Who knows? |
3261 | Why did n''t you take us by surprise, and come yesterday?" |
3261 | Why do n''t you write books like that now? |
3261 | Why do you find fault with us? |
3261 | Why do you keep such things in a garden? |
3261 | Why should a man brood over a mere accident for ever? |
3261 | Why should you expect to see poorly people on the road?" |
3261 | Will you come a turn with us, neighbour? |
3261 | Wo n''t you go into Ellen''s boat, Dick, since, without offence to our guest, you are the better sculler?" |
3261 | Yes?" |
3261 | You feel that, do n''t you?" |
3261 | You see-- What do think could be done about them?" |
3261 | and how could they look happy if they knew that their neighbours were shut up in prison, while they bore such things quietly? |
3261 | and is n''t it very wasteful to do so?" |
3261 | are we still civilised?" |
3261 | cried the old boy, impetuously;"what human nature? |
3261 | did they make nothing well?" |
3261 | do they take any part in that?" |
3261 | for hitherto we have been talking of great tragedies, I suppose?" |
3261 | had men any time or opportunity for cultivating the fine arts amidst the desperate struggle for life and freedom that you have told me of?" |
3261 | he said;"yes, what do you mean by that word? |
3261 | how can you ask such a question? |
3261 | or have you come to a mere dictatorship, which some persons in the nineteenth century used to prophesy as the ultimate outcome of democracy? |
3261 | or rather of what nature?" |
3261 | or will you come with us and hear some Welsh folk sing in a hall close by here? |
3261 | or would you like presently to come with me into the City and see some really fine building? |
3261 | or-- what shall it be?" |
3261 | said Dick;"why should you see smoke?" |
3261 | said I,"or the strikes and lock- outs and starvation of which we have heard?" |
3261 | said I. Quoth Dick:"Did I say that? |
3261 | said I;"how do you teach history?" |
3261 | said he, hailing the scaffold,"are you coming down for a glass?" |
3261 | said he:"you like heaven, do you?" |
3261 | said he;"so you know the Thames, do you?" |
3261 | said he;"what peace was there amongst those poor confused wretches of the nineteenth century? |
3261 | said the old man,"you are pleased, are you, Ellen?" |
3261 | shall we expect peace and stability from unhappiness? |
3261 | the labour- saving machines? |
3261 | what''s the matter now? |
3261 | would not their occurrence( and you admit that they occur) make criminal law necessary?" |
3261 | you like that, do you?" |
7303 | ''And the people answered,How shall we go about to do this thing, for it seemeth good to us?" |
7303 | ''And when the capitalists saw that the water overflowed, they said to the people:''"See ye not the tank, which is the Market, doth overflow? |
7303 | ''But the people answered, saying:How can we buy unless ye hire us, for how else shall we have wherewithal to buy? |
7303 | Am I to understand that maternity now is unattended with risk or suffering? |
7303 | Am I to understand that there was actually no violent doings in connection with this great transformation? |
7303 | Am I to understand,I asked,"that this is a fair sample of your youth, and not a picked assembly of the more athletic?" |
7303 | Am I to understand,I finally inquired,"that handwriting, and the reading of it, like lock- making, is a lost art?" |
7303 | And are there really cases,I said,"of individuals who thus voluntarily abandon society in preference to fulfilling their social duty?" |
7303 | And can you take your vacation when you please? |
7303 | And did interest represent any economic service to the community on the part of the interest taker in lending his money? |
7303 | And did the European nations fare as well when they passed through the same crisis? |
7303 | And did the people elect the capitalists? |
7303 | And do I understand that there was no compulsion upon anybody to join the public service? |
7303 | And do not these shoes leak in winter? |
7303 | And do you mean to say that there are actually no locksmiths to- day who could open this safe? |
7303 | And has it not occurred to you to wonder why our dress was not like theirs-- why we wear skirts and they do not? |
7303 | And how about other things besides land? |
7303 | And how was it with the men? |
7303 | And so you thought I was shirking? 7303 And the majority, I understand, were the poor, not the rich-- the ones who had the wrong side of the inequalities that prevailed?" |
7303 | And there was no war? |
7303 | And was it only among the wage- earners and the small producers that this glut of men existed? |
7303 | And was this a very large cause of waste? |
7303 | And were they then, at last, enlisted by force? |
7303 | And were you the only person whose property came to him by descent without effort of his own? |
7303 | And what is that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And why would they have lacked employment? 7303 And would you call that voluntary service? |
7303 | And you say this amazing depopulation took place at once after the Revolution? |
7303 | Are there any public baths open so late as this? |
7303 | Are these stuffy- looking papers what you used to call wealth? |
7303 | Are you, then, a magician? |
7303 | At about what date,I asked,"do you consider that the revolutionary movement began to pass from the incoherent into the logical phase?" |
7303 | Beyond protecting the capitalist system from its own effects, did the political government do absolutely nothing? |
7303 | But does not the reputation of particular teachers attract students to special universities? |
7303 | But how about the care of children, of the home, etc.? |
7303 | But how about the children? |
7303 | But how about the elaborate statistics on which you base the calculations that guide production? 7303 But how about the married women?" |
7303 | But how about the workmen employed by the capitalists in ministering to their luxuries? 7303 But how do you get it up to this level?" |
7303 | But how is the duty of society to safeguard the lives of its members interfered with when one person, has more capital than another? |
7303 | But is it possible that Edith has not shown you the electroscope? |
7303 | But the citizen also has relations with the public stores from which he supplies his needs? |
7303 | But to the diminution, I suspect, of the picturesqueness of the social panorama? |
7303 | But was he as well off? 7303 But what became of the churches and the clergy when the people found out what blind guides they had been?" |
7303 | But what do you do with such persons? |
7303 | But what has become of all the diamonds and rubies and emeralds, and gold and silver jewels? |
7303 | But what is this that he has been telling you? |
7303 | But what was there,I said,"about 1873 which has led historians to take it as the date from which to reckon the beginning of the Revolution?" |
7303 | But when was the use of animals for food discontinued? |
7303 | But where are the cripples, the deformed, the feeble, the consumptive? |
7303 | But who paid for the votes? |
7303 | But why did not the people elect officials and representatives of their own class, who would look out for the interests of the masses? |
7303 | But why do you attribute this miracle,I exclaimed,"for miracle it seems, to the effect of economic equality on the relation of men and women?" |
7303 | But why not? |
7303 | But would not the rate of profits have been much reduced in the case supposed? |
7303 | But you certainly do not use paper kettles? 7303 But, after all, who was it who started and kept up the quarreling over religion in former days?" |
7303 | But-- but,I exclaimed,"what if it should come on to rain on these paper clothes? |
7303 | By what is the possible production of wealth limited? |
7303 | By whom, then, were they appointed? |
7303 | CAN A MAID FORGET HER ORNAMENTS? |
7303 | Certainly, if you say so,said I, with a shiver,"but are you sure that it is not a trifle cool? |
7303 | Come, doctor,I protested,"do n''t you think a man in my position has enough riddles to guess, without making them up for him?" |
7303 | Did it buy them of the owners, or as to the plants did it build them? |
7303 | Did not men who owned property in a country-- a millionaire, for instance, like myself-- have a stake in it? |
7303 | Did the new order get into full running condition so quickly as that? |
7303 | Did this rent represent any economic service of any sort rendered to the community by the rent receiver? |
7303 | Did you think we were going to give you your death? |
7303 | Do not the histories say so? |
7303 | Do you know, Mr. West,said the former,"it strikes us as very odd that you should have that idea? |
7303 | Do you know, my boy,he said,"it is not often that the whirligig of Time brings round his revenges in quite so dramatic a way as this?" |
7303 | Do you know,I said presently,"that one feature which is missing from the landscape impresses me quite as much as any that it presents?" |
7303 | Do you mean my dress? |
7303 | Do you mean that a form of government which seems to have been the most irresponsible and despotic possible was defended in the name of liberty? |
7303 | Do you mean that the whole United States is laid out in this way? |
7303 | Do you mean that they also are made of paper? |
7303 | Do you mean that you really are afraid you will dream of the old times again? |
7303 | Do you mean that you take regular exercise in a gymnasium? |
7303 | Do you see that snakelike cord trailing away over the broken ground behind each machine? 7303 Do you see that young man yonder in the chair with so many of the others about him?" |
7303 | Does that list exhaust the number of women''s occupations in your day? |
7303 | Evidently,I said,"these are plows, but what drives them?" |
7303 | For example? |
7303 | From what source? |
7303 | HOW COULD WE INDEED? |
7303 | Has this belief,I asked,"been thus far practically confirmed by any progress actually made in the assurance of what is true as to these things? |
7303 | Have n''t you some real money to show us,said Edith,"something besides these papers-- some gold and silver such as they have at the museum?" |
7303 | Have we had enough of economics for the day? |
7303 | Have you any idea,I asked,"how much this credit of$ 4,000 would have been equal to in purchasing power in 1887?" |
7303 | Have you ever looked over any of the treatises which our forefathers called political economies, at the Historical Library? |
7303 | How about public holidays; have you abandoned them? |
7303 | How about the condition of the masses in a country thus reduced to commercial vassalage to the capitalists of another country? 7303 How about the women?" |
7303 | How could it have been true? |
7303 | How did the Government acquire the lands and manufacturing plants it needed? |
7303 | How did the capitalists resist inventions? |
7303 | How did they make that out? |
7303 | How do you make that out? |
7303 | How does our banking system strike you as compared with that of your day? |
7303 | How does the integrated character of the economic system affect our attitude toward improvements or inventions of any sort in economic processes? |
7303 | How far does this park extend? |
7303 | How long does this public gymnastic education last? |
7303 | How long is it since people ceased to call themselves Catholics, Protestants, Baptists, Methodists, and so on? |
7303 | How near was the world-- that is, of course, the nations whose industrial evolution had gone farthest-- to this condition when the Revolution came? |
7303 | How so, precisely? |
7303 | How so? |
7303 | How too late? |
7303 | How was it in the United States? |
7303 | How? |
7303 | I beg your pardon,she said, raising her eyebrows a little,"what did I understand you to ask for?" |
7303 | I should suppose so, but why, then, did the poor so eagerly seek to serve the rich when the rich refused with scorn to serve one another? 7303 I suppose you refer to competition?" |
7303 | I understand that in your day hay was the main crop of New England? |
7303 | If all the landlords and money lenders had died over night, would it have made any difference to the world? |
7303 | If men go on,I said,"growing at this rate in the knowledge of divine things and the sharing of the divine life, what will they yet come to?" |
7303 | If, then, the majority did not like any existing arrangement, or think it to their advantage, they could change it as radically as they wished? |
7303 | In just what way,I asked,"did the new order tend to decrease exchanges with foreign countries?" |
7303 | In short,said I,"while under our system we conformed men to things, you think it more reasonable to conform things to men?" |
7303 | In such a race, which crew was likely to fare worse, that of the winning or the losing galley? |
7303 | In what respect, then, were the rich and poor equal? |
7303 | In what way did this law operate? |
7303 | Is it possible that Dr. Leete has not told you of our universal language? |
7303 | Is it possible that the improvement had been so small that there could be a question raised whether there had been any at all? |
7303 | Is it possible you have not guessed that? 7303 Is it possible,"I exclaimed,"that you mean to say people no longer quarrel over religion? |
7303 | Is she to compete in anything? |
7303 | Is this Arlington the same town that was a suburb of the city in my time? |
7303 | It sounds like a riddle, does n''t it? 7303 It sounds so, does n''t it? |
7303 | May I ask what kind of rings, for what sort of use? |
7303 | May not production fall short of possible consumption? 7303 Meanwhile, you see that great building with the dome just across the square? |
7303 | No doubt,I said,"since you preserve our churches as curiosities, you must have better ones of your own for use?" |
7303 | Not wash them!--why not? |
7303 | Now tell us about interest; what was that? |
7303 | Now, what is the explanation? 7303 Of course,"replied the superintendent,"but did it not have the same in your day? |
7303 | Of what use indeed was it that coal had been discovered, when there were still as many fireless homes as ever? 7303 On the other hand, what were the theory and practice pursued by the capitalists in carrying on the economic machinery which were under their control? |
7303 | Opportunities for what? |
7303 | Said not the serpent in the old story,''If you eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge you shall be as gods''? 7303 Should you have supposed that it would so operate?" |
7303 | Since you furnish so much on public or common account, why not furnish everything in that way? 7303 So much for the intellectual qualities that marked the victors in the race for wealth under the miscalled competitive system; what of the moral? |
7303 | Talking about housework,I said,"how did they manage about houses? |
7303 | Talking of paper,said Edith, extending a very trim foot by way of attracting attention to its gear,"what do you think of our modern shoes?" |
7303 | Tell us, Julian,said the doctor,"did the rich go to one another and ask the privilege of being one another''s servants or employees?" |
7303 | Tell us, Robert, did not our ancestors recognize the facts of the situation you have described? 7303 That is to say, one sex paid too much attention to dress and the other too little?" |
7303 | That means, I suppose, that rubbers too as articles of wear have been sent to the museum? |
7303 | The Greater Self-- what does that mean? |
7303 | The least progressive of arts? 7303 Then anybody can set the fashion?" |
7303 | Then if not, and if the examination is to begin in five minutes, are we not likely to be late? |
7303 | Then, on the whole, competition was not a palliative of the profit system? |
7303 | This, you say, is what the nineteenth- century economists themselves taught concerning the outcome of the profit system? |
7303 | To what cause did they ascribe the crises? |
7303 | To what has the struggle of the nations for foreign markets in the nineteenth century been aptly compared? |
7303 | To what have our historians been wo nt to compare the condition of the community under the profit system? |
7303 | Very good,said the doctor;"it will doubtless be very short, and what do you say to attending it this time in person? |
7303 | Was it meant by this expression that there had been actually more food, clothing, and other good things produced than the people could use? |
7303 | Was this so before the great Revolution? |
7303 | Well, and has not such a collection a value to the student of history? |
7303 | Well, to begin with,I said, as the dome of the Statehouse caught my eye,"what on earth have you stuck up there? |
7303 | Were adulteration and scamped work the only devices by which sham reductions of prices was effected? |
7303 | Were farmers the only class of small capitalists who were injured rather than helped by labor- saving machinery? |
7303 | What are the other things that would not be equal? |
7303 | What are you thinking about? |
7303 | What caused the change? 7303 What did that mean?" |
7303 | What do you do? |
7303 | What do you mean by the great bonfire? |
7303 | What do you mean? |
7303 | What do you mean? |
7303 | What do you suppose it is made of? |
7303 | What have you to say of the moral aspect of this expenditure for luxury? |
7303 | What is Edith''s specialty? |
7303 | What is in the safe? |
7303 | What is it that is missing? |
7303 | What is it? |
7303 | What is that about Masters of the Bread? |
7303 | What is that building which we are just passing over that has so much glass about it? |
7303 | What is that you say? |
7303 | What is that? |
7303 | What is that? |
7303 | What is the ranking? |
7303 | What is the topic they discuss? |
7303 | What is the use of going further? |
7303 | What is this mystery? 7303 What is this?" |
7303 | What name did our ancestors give to the various economic disturbances which they ascribed to overproduction? |
7303 | What sort of a feeling? |
7303 | What was rent? |
7303 | What was the excuse? |
7303 | What was the general economic effect of competition? |
7303 | What was the general effect of rent and interest upon the consumption and consequently the production of wealth by the community? |
7303 | What was the idea of it? |
7303 | What was the market? |
7303 | What was the reforesting? |
7303 | What was the term by which they most commonly described the presence in the market of more products than could be sold? |
7303 | What were some of the modes of luxurious expenditure indulged in by the capitalists? |
7303 | What were the methods which the capitalists engaged in production and exchange made use of to bring trade their way, as they used to say? |
7303 | What, on the other hand, will happen if I run through my credit before the year is out? |
7303 | What, on the other hand, would be the effect on consumption of an unequal division of consumable products? |
7303 | Where had the progress been? |
7303 | Who are these? |
7303 | Who is to be the new teacher? |
7303 | Who were they? |
7303 | Why any more than a woman''s? |
7303 | Why could not the world receive earlier the revelation it seems to find so easy of comprehension now? |
7303 | Why did the peace require such a great amount of keeping? 7303 Why not?" |
7303 | Why not? |
7303 | Why should I not? 7303 Why so?" |
7303 | Why then? |
7303 | Why, yes; it is a man''s dress I suppose, is it not? |
7303 | Would not the judges even ask me by what right or title of ownership I claimed my wealth? |
7303 | Would such a thing be possible nowadays as full storehouses and a hungry and naked people existing at the same time? |
7303 | Yes,I said,"it is indeed all there, but why were we so long in seeing it?" |
7303 | You are easily the mistress of my waking thoughts,I said;"but can you rule my sleeping mind as well?" |
7303 | You mean garments made of sheep''s hair? 7303 You mean that it was only the pressure of want or the fear of it that drove the poor to the point of becoming the servants of the rich?" |
7303 | ''If a man love not his brother whom he hath seen, how shall he love God whom he hath not seen?'' |
7303 | --Now, Frank, will you tell us exactly what this proposition means?" |
7303 | Am I saying too much, Julian?" |
7303 | And they said:"''"Behold, what need have ye at all of these capitalists, that ye should yield them profits upon your labor? |
7303 | And were the rich and poor equal in the courts? |
7303 | And why have ye no money? |
7303 | Are they the faces of philosophers? |
7303 | Are ye not our men to do our embassies?" |
7303 | Besides, what is the need? |
7303 | But am I wrong in assuming that ill health was a general condition among your women? |
7303 | But how about the economic operation of this plan?" |
7303 | But the capitalists said to the people:"Shall we hire you to bring water when the tank, which is the Market, doth already overflow? |
7303 | But the capitalists, you say, did not even pretend to feel any responsibility for the welfare of their subjects?" |
7303 | But was it true that all had equal opportunities for getting rich and bettering themselves?" |
7303 | But what assumption could have been more regardless of facts than this? |
7303 | But what is the use of lengthening a list which might be made interminable? |
7303 | But who, think you, were the true friends and champions of private property? |
7303 | But, for that matter, how do you prepare soles of paper that will last?" |
7303 | Ca n''t you tell us,"I added, turning to the superintendent--"how do you moderns diagnose the fashion mania that made our lives such a burden to us?" |
7303 | Can it be that God sends sweeter souls to earth now that the world is so much fitter for them? |
7303 | Can you forgive us, Julian, for taking such an advantage of your ignorance?" |
7303 | Can you reassure us on this point?" |
7303 | Could there conceivably be but one answer to that question? |
7303 | Curious, is n''t it, when one comes to think of it, that the riper civilization has grown, the more perishable its records have become? |
7303 | Did it never occur to you why the families of the well- to- do and cultured in your day were not larger?" |
7303 | Did our great- grandfathers recognize in this excess of goods over buyers a cause of economic disturbance?" |
7303 | Did the individual pursuit of riches under your system necessarily tend to increase the aggregate wealth of the community? |
7303 | Did they not see that this glut of men indicated something out of order in the social arrangements?" |
7303 | Did they receive the same treatment?" |
7303 | Did this first and essential condition of any true competitive struggle characterize the competitive system of your day?" |
7303 | Do I understand that this modern religion is considered by you to be the same doctrine Christ taught?" |
7303 | Do n''t tell me that they have been given up, like wool?" |
7303 | Do tell us what the secret was, Julian?" |
7303 | Do you consider that you really know more about them than we did, or that you know more positively the things which we merely tried to believe?" |
7303 | Do you know that this new social order of which I have so strangely become a witness has hitherto had something of this mirage effect? |
7303 | Do you mean to say that the competition of capitalists for trade never operated to reduce profits?" |
7303 | Do you remember his name?" |
7303 | Do you see the inference?" |
7303 | Do you see the point?" |
7303 | Do you suppose we want to be shut up here forever?" |
7303 | Do you think you would ever have guessed that?" |
7303 | Does not that imply, practically, a governmental control or initiative in fashions of dress?" |
7303 | Doth nothing come out of much?" |
7303 | Doth plenty breed famine? |
7303 | Doubtless I am overlooking some important fact, but did you not say that all the people, at least all the men, had a voice in the government?" |
7303 | Finally, what is implied in the equal right of all to the pursuit of happiness? |
7303 | Fine- looking young people, are they not? |
7303 | HOW ABOUT THE WOMEN? |
7303 | Had you not noticed that you were offered no such food?" |
7303 | Has that process gone on, or has it possibly been reversed?" |
7303 | Has the sculptor idealized them? |
7303 | Have I erred in describing the working of your system in this particular, Julian?" |
7303 | Have we not painted too black a picture? |
7303 | Have you anything to say on that point beyond what has been said?" |
7303 | Have you reflected that if I had dreamed it all you would have had no existence save as a figment in the brain of a sleeping man a hundred years ago?" |
7303 | How can men be free who must ask the right to labor and to live from their fellow- men and seek their bread from the hands of others? |
7303 | How cometh it that ye may not come by the water in the tank? |
7303 | How could we ever bring ourselves to eat you?'' |
7303 | How do you manage that now?" |
7303 | How does this theory agree with the facts stated in the histories?" |
7303 | How else could it have assessed and collected taxes or exacted a dozen other duties from citizens? |
7303 | How is it about that?" |
7303 | How is it that our profits are become unprofitable to us, and our gains do make us poor? |
7303 | How many of the great fortunes heaped up by the self- made men of your day, Julian, would have stood that test?" |
7303 | How was he going to go about it? |
7303 | How was it in this respect under the rule of the rich? |
7303 | How was it settled who should have the good houses and who the poor?" |
7303 | How was that managed? |
7303 | How was that?" |
7303 | How were they able to make so much trouble?" |
7303 | I asked,"that the workers in each trade regulate for themselves the conditions of their particular occupation?" |
7303 | I sincerely hope you will forgive me, in consideration of my motive, and not----""Not what?" |
7303 | I whispered-- for, in spite of his assurance, I could not realize that they did not hear me--"are we here or there?" |
7303 | If she ever was his equal, why did she cease to become so, and by a rule so universal? |
7303 | If such a person should flatly refuse to render any sort of industrial or useful service on any terms, what would be done with him? |
7303 | In that case what was the result?" |
7303 | Is it not because ye have no money? |
7303 | Is it not so?" |
7303 | Is not that what we have been talking about?" |
7303 | Is that too much to say? |
7303 | Is that what you mean?" |
7303 | Just when was it discontinued?'' |
7303 | May not the demand for consumption exceed the resources of production?" |
7303 | Most of the farmers of the West were pulling in it toward the end of the nineteenth century.--Was it not so, Julian? |
7303 | No doubt there is a compulsory side to your system for dealing with such persons?" |
7303 | Now can the English workman live on less wages than before? |
7303 | Now tell us, Julian, was your million dollars the result of your economic ability, the fruit of your industry?" |
7303 | Now what could an apologist of private capitalism and the profit system possibly have to say about the science of wealth? |
7303 | Now, Emily, what would be the natural effect of such a lack of correspondence between the inlet and the outlet capacity of the cistern?" |
7303 | Now, did the capital wasted in these two ways represent all that the profit system cost the people?" |
7303 | Now, how do you account for that? |
7303 | Now, is it not possible that we have done it injustice? |
7303 | Now, the making of garments is carried on, I suppose, like all your other industries, as public business, under collective management, is it not?" |
7303 | Now, were not our clergymen justified in counting on the continued support of women, whatever the men might do?" |
7303 | Now, what notable characteristic and main feature of the business system of our forefathers resulted from the glut thus produced?" |
7303 | Now, what will compel the people to exercise vigilance as to the public administration? |
7303 | On what ground would you refuse to return me my million, for I assume that you would refuse?" |
7303 | Presently she said:"What were we talking about? |
7303 | See ye not how by this means the tank must overflow, being filled by that ye lack and made to abound out of your emptiness? |
7303 | Shall you consider it impertinent if I try to make the matter a little clearer to them?" |
7303 | Tell me, were the families of the well- to- do and cultured class in the America of your day, as a whole, large?" |
7303 | That would have made a more difficult problem to deal with, would it not?" |
7303 | The prospect of rising as a motive to reconcile the wage- earner or the poor man in general to his subjection, what did it amount to? |
7303 | The question first suggested by this statement is: To whom, to what class did these contrasts tend to make life more amusing? |
7303 | To their question, Who was to pay them for what the people had taken from them? |
7303 | To what was this outburst of inventive genius due?" |
7303 | To whom, then, properly belongs that two hundredfold enhancement of the value of every one''s labor which is owing to the social organism?" |
7303 | Was it a conviction that health would be favored by avoiding flesh?" |
7303 | Was it because the poor so loved the rich?" |
7303 | Was it necessarily worse than the condition of the masses of the superior country?" |
7303 | Was it not so?" |
7303 | Was it your statesmen, perchance your economists, your scholars, or any other of your so- called wise men? |
7303 | Was the old system of property distribution, by which the few held the many in servitude through fear of starvation, an exception to this rule? |
7303 | Was this claim well based?" |
7303 | Was this of the same nature?" |
7303 | Well might Americans say to themselves''If such things are done in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry?'' |
7303 | Were not the odds against him far greater in the latter struggle than they could have been, if he were a tolerably good shot, in the former? |
7303 | Were they bigoted also? |
7303 | Were they tools of the ecclesiastics?" |
7303 | What are you turning so red for?" |
7303 | What chattel- slave system ever made a record of such wastefulness of human life, as that? |
7303 | What could be expected save what resulted-- a dwarfed and enfeebled physique and a semi- invalid existence? |
7303 | What did I say to the theater for that evening? |
7303 | What did the new order do with them? |
7303 | What did the world, as a rule, think of the great fortune- makers of your time? |
7303 | What do you see down there to suggest a question?" |
7303 | What do you suppose, now, this costume of mine cost?" |
7303 | What great thing do they wherefore ye render them this tribute? |
7303 | What has Julian been telling you?" |
7303 | What have you to say as to the merits of this controversy?" |
7303 | What is liberty? |
7303 | What is life without its material basis, and what is an equal right to life but a right to an equal material basis for it? |
7303 | What is that ground?" |
7303 | What is the difficulty?" |
7303 | What need for excuses or defenders had a system so deeply based in usage and antiquity as this? |
7303 | What sort of human types did they represent? |
7303 | What useful work could have been got out of such people as we were, however well disposed we might have become to render service? |
7303 | What was competition and what caused it, referring especially to the competition between capitalists?" |
7303 | What was his plan?" |
7303 | What was luxury?" |
7303 | What was that?" |
7303 | What was the basis of final settlement?" |
7303 | What was there about the old system of private capitalism to account for a_ fiasco_ so tremendous?" |
7303 | What was to be left even to the next generation?" |
7303 | What were the facts?" |
7303 | What were the other two?" |
7303 | What were the qualities and practices which the successful seeker after great wealth must systematically cultivate and follow? |
7303 | What wonder that their riches became a badge of ignominy and their victory their shame? |
7303 | Where could we have been fitted into any sort of industrial service without being more hindrance than help?" |
7303 | Who indeed would not have been impatient in their place, and cried as they did,''How long, O Lord, how long?'' |
7303 | Who settles the question what you shall wear?" |
7303 | Who was there to fight on the other side? |
7303 | Why add reproach to the burden of such a failure as that? |
7303 | Why are they not mine now, and why should they not be returned to me?'' |
7303 | Why did n''t I feel that way about the duty of working in the nineteenth century? |
7303 | Why did n''t it keep itself, as it does now?" |
7303 | Why did not the farmer, as a sort of capitalist, pile up his profits on labor- saving machinery like the other capitalists?" |
7303 | Why did their censures effect no change?" |
7303 | Why do you laugh? |
7303 | Why not? |
7303 | Why should we not? |
7303 | Why so?" |
7303 | Why was this?" |
7303 | Will it be said that at least the later theory of inheritance was more humane, although one- sided? |
7303 | Will ye mock us? |
7303 | Will you tell me who or what sets the fashions?" |
7303 | Wo n''t you please tell me, then, what they meant by calling themselves free and equal?" |
7303 | Would they not have been thrown out of work if luxury had been given up?" |
7303 | Would they not melt, and at a little strain would they not part?" |
7303 | You are Julian West?" |
7303 | exclaimed Mr. Barton, when I told him this;"who would have expected it? |
7303 | he asked as we left the house,"or would you like to attend the afternoon session the teacher spoke of?" |
7303 | how can you possibly warm such great bodies of water, which are so constantly renewed, especially in winter?" |
7303 | no, why should they? |
7303 | said I,"do n''t you write letters any more?" |
7303 | said the doctor,"what has so suddenly dried up the fountains of your pity? |
7303 | there is then at least one invalid?" |
7303 | why not?" |
7303 | why should we give you of the water which we have gathered, for then we should become even as ye are, and perish with you? |
44307 | Again those words''Central Sea;''what does it mean? 44307 Ah, Hugh; why say the United States? |
44307 | And I am to go with him, you understand? |
44307 | And I have lain here since June 22d? |
44307 | And Rawolle; where is he? |
44307 | And are you the great- grandson of Hugh Craft, my dear old friend of 1887? |
44307 | And can you not have that? |
44307 | And day after to- morrow, at 12 dial, we sail for the north pole? |
44307 | And do you call that a painless death, being crushed upon the earth below into a shapeless mass? |
44307 | And do you mean to tell me that Chicago is a greater city than New York? 44307 And federal appointments, the patronage of the party, as it was formerly called-- how are they made?" |
44307 | And go wherever I wish? |
44307 | And has no effort been made to rediscover this secret? |
44307 | And have no accidents ever happened to these stations from ice- floes, collisions, or faulty construction? |
44307 | And how about the rates of postage? |
44307 | And how do you feel? 44307 And how have you accomplished this great change?" |
44307 | And how long does it take to gain this full momentum? |
44307 | And how long has this been the custom? |
44307 | And is all of this of malleable glass? |
44307 | And is not the country somewhat crowded by this great mass of people? |
44307 | And our elevation now is 10,000 feet, you say? |
44307 | And steam is n''t used any more? |
44307 | And that pole is where? |
44307 | And the government pays these men? |
44307 | And the officers-- how are they appointed? |
44307 | And the term of office? |
44307 | And their duties, what are they? |
44307 | And to- night is your last with us? 44307 And was I also asleep as long?" |
44307 | And was the principle never divulged by the inventor? |
44307 | And we are going north, to the extremity of the earth? |
44307 | And what are our chances for promotion? 44307 And what does my hubby get?" |
44307 | And what is considered good speed for the electric roads? |
44307 | And what will Hugh say when he returns and finds me gone? |
44307 | And where may that south point be? |
44307 | And who is President now? |
44307 | And why dare we not, Miss Timidity? |
44307 | And why may we not? |
44307 | And you have investigated? |
44307 | And you knew that a letter would be found in that cairn? |
44307 | And you mean to tell me that this paper is the newspaper of the whole country? 44307 And you personally knew the man who left that letter here in this desolate waste?" |
44307 | And you reproach me not that I see in you my former love? |
44307 | And you say the quantity that I asked for is nearly ready? |
44307 | And you want her, Hugh? |
44307 | And you will obey this order? |
44307 | And you will send for her to- morrow? |
44307 | And you, too, Hathaway? |
44307 | And yours the same? |
44307 | Any news at the club? |
44307 | Are the rates of passage high? |
44307 | Are there any changes in the method of electing Senators, Representatives, and chief magistrate? |
44307 | Are there any laws relating to the holding of real estate? |
44307 | Are they expensive? 44307 Are you displeased at meeting me?" |
44307 | Are you engaged? |
44307 | Are you not too cold, Junius? |
44307 | Are you sure? |
44307 | Bad, eh? |
44307 | But I had forgotten; is she engaged, or in love? |
44307 | But can we not help you? |
44307 | But can you not carry material to keep your supply of hydrogen up to the amount required? |
44307 | But could n''t she come as somebody else? 44307 But dare I?" |
44307 | But did not those who were not injured by the shocks and falling buildings have time to move their effects before the waters overtook them? 44307 But does not this convict labor compete with the labor of the masses?" |
44307 | But does this not work more harshly against those of otherwise good reputation than against the habitual criminal? |
44307 | But has it always worked well? |
44307 | But how are the artillery regiments kept full? |
44307 | But how are these men found? 44307 But if I were to show you that it was a fact, an accomplished fact, you would, of course, admit it?" |
44307 | But is it not a little confusing to you, this change from the old to the new style? |
44307 | But may not the choice of the people be defeated, where the election is in the hands of so few? |
44307 | But suppose one is dissatisfied with his trial; what then? |
44307 | But tell me, Rawolle, why do you speak of 16 dial and 13 dial? 44307 But the heading reads:''America, September 19, 2000?''" |
44307 | But were you? |
44307 | But will you not be adding too much weight for buoyancy? |
44307 | But, Junius, does Marie know this? 44307 But,"asked Cobb,"does not this oil congeal upon the rail in cold weather?" |
44307 | But,musingly inquired Cobb,"is not there a difference in operating the roads? |
44307 | By whom was this wonderful instrument invented? 44307 Can I help it? |
44307 | Can man forswear his soul? |
44307 | Can you explain why it is that the pole has never been reached by land parties? |
44307 | Chief of Ordnance? |
44307 | Colchis, how can I ever repay you for the time you have given to the manufacture of these crystals? |
44307 | Craft, did you say? |
44307 | Did she leave any word for you? |
44307 | Did you hear it, Marie? |
44307 | Did_ you_ know Jean Colchis? |
44307 | Do I remind you of some old friend, some old love? |
44307 | Do I? 44307 Do n''t you know in which direction south is?" |
44307 | Do n''t you see how anxious I am? |
44307 | Do you comprehend the advance in science that has been made in a hundred years? |
44307 | Do you have any accidents on the roads? 44307 Do you intend to make direct for the pole from Cape Farewell?" |
44307 | Do you wish to earn twenty dollars? |
44307 | Do you wish to go? |
44307 | Do you, indeed, make this request? |
44307 | Does it differ much from the Morse system? |
44307 | Does not this system give opportunities for bribery and jobbery? |
44307 | Does this law not tend to deprive the State and nation of the services of tried and capable men? |
44307 | Easy enough to say,''Take your bearings,''he returned,"but how? |
44307 | Father, dear; I wish to visit aunt Lora in San Francisco; can I go? |
44307 | Father, have I been a good, true daughter to you? |
44307 | Given us the slip, eh? |
44307 | Glass? |
44307 | God is all powerful; but by man? |
44307 | Have I slept a hundred and thirteen years? 44307 Have you any nitric acid?" |
44307 | Have you been over the ship? |
44307 | How about pardons from these prisons? |
44307 | How can it? 44307 How do you make that out, Junius?" |
44307 | How far apart are these stations? |
44307 | How have you done this, pray? |
44307 | How is that? 44307 How is that?" |
44307 | How is the course? 44307 How long has this sleep continued?" |
44307 | How long has this system been in operation? |
44307 | How long have these works been in operation? |
44307 | How many pairs of these sagacious little instruments have you in the system? |
44307 | How much have I had already? |
44307 | How much will the hydrogen which is used to inflate that bag weigh? |
44307 | How so, Mollie? |
44307 | How so? 44307 How?" |
44307 | Hugh,said Cobb, rising from his chair,"will you take the latitude from Polaris? |
44307 | I presume,said Cobb,"that there can be but few changes in the general management, supervision, etc., of the roads from those in vogue in my time?" |
44307 | I should imagine that the system is very expensive-- the salary of so many judges? |
44307 | I think I was informed by Mr. Rawolle that the government owns all of the railroads in the country? |
44307 | I was engaged the past two nights, and it was impossible for me to get here; but how progresses the work? 44307 I, Lester? |
44307 | IS IT A HOAX? 44307 Is it a private concern?" |
44307 | Is it to be so? |
44307 | Is n''t he a young man to have lived so long? |
44307 | Is the nation in debt? |
44307 | Is the plaster ready to set? |
44307 | Is this now the prevailing style? |
44307 | It is funny, is it not, to hear me talking of having been the friend and chum of this man''s great- great- grandfather? |
44307 | It must take powerful engines to exhaust the air from such a long tunnel, does it not? |
44307 | Listen,he exclaimed, as their glasses were laid upon the table;"are you ready to give me your strictest attention?" |
44307 | Master, this is the 25th of August, is it not? |
44307 | Mr. Rawolle, I am prepared for many new and, to me, quite startling statements, but this of yours is a little too strong, is it not? 44307 No doubt you would like to hear of the prison system as it exists to- day; for it is directly connected, of course, with the law?" |
44307 | No letter in which you are recognized? |
44307 | Perhaps not,smiling;"but I may have known his great- grandfather; in fact, I may possibly have been an intimate friend of his-- who knows?" |
44307 | Perhaps? |
44307 | Playing billiards in the other room-- at least he was there a minute ago; but do you want us to- night? |
44307 | Simple, is n''t it? |
44307 | So long? |
44307 | Such an immense basin must have required a considerable time to fill up? |
44307 | Surely, he taught you how to make the instruments? |
44307 | Tell me one other thing,said Cobb;"has the pneumatic railroad superseded all other kinds?" |
44307 | That would be terrible intriguing, would n''t it? |
44307 | The metropolis? |
44307 | The sympathetic system, did you say? |
44307 | Then, I take it that a Republican house would surely elect a Republican, and vice versa? |
44307 | Then, I understand that, if you could manufacture this gas in sufficient quantities on the ship, and by light apparatus, you could go anywhere? |
44307 | Then, how can you account for the power of attraction which draws you to me? |
44307 | Then, judging from your remarks, there is practically no limit to the speed which can be obtained by this method of propulsion? |
44307 | Then, life without your lover is worse than death? |
44307 | Then, that light away down near the horizon is nearly 150 miles from us? |
44307 | Then, the towns, excepting the great centers, are connected by electric railroads for inter- transportation? |
44307 | There are none but sailing vessels in the harbor; will madame have use for one of them? |
44307 | They must be very rich and powerful corporations, these which own such lines as this? |
44307 | This is, no doubt, an electric carriage? |
44307 | Truly, Mollie? |
44307 | Twice? |
44307 | Well, Mr. Lane, what is it? 44307 Well, did I say anything about going to New York?" |
44307 | Well, have n''t I tried to make him love me? 44307 Well, why do n''t you make them?" |
44307 | Were you ever in love, Mollie? |
44307 | What are considered among the gravest crimes? |
44307 | What did you pay for the telegraph system? 44307 What does it mean?" |
44307 | What have n''t you done? |
44307 | What is it now, pet? |
44307 | What is it? |
44307 | What is the next act in this drama? |
44307 | What is the rate of taxation-- national and municipal? |
44307 | What is the strength of the army required to protect the country from internal violence, and for a cadre of a full army? |
44307 | What is the volume of gas as compared with the solid base? 44307 What is this? |
44307 | What is your pay? |
44307 | What more can man desire than a name great to the world; a name honored, respected and loved? |
44307 | What next? |
44307 | What will Lester say when he does not find me in the conservatory to- night? |
44307 | What will you do? 44307 What''s the matter with you? |
44307 | What, doctor? |
44307 | What? |
44307 | When did you say these were invented? |
44307 | When do you desire to start, Miss Craft? |
44307 | Where is the electricity for these powerful engines generated? |
44307 | Where is the evidence of his skill, of his ingenuity? 44307 Where?" |
44307 | Who knocks? |
44307 | Who will not? |
44307 | Whose order? |
44307 | Why did I not think of that? |
44307 | Why did you bring so much meteorite and acid? |
44307 | Why must you seek me thus stealthily, Lester, you ask? 44307 Why, you have told me that New York has over four million inhabitants; has Chicago more than that number?" |
44307 | Will I see you here to- morrow evening? |
44307 | Will he know me? 44307 Will you get the nomination again, do you think?" |
44307 | Will you not smoke, also? |
44307 | Will you show me one of these milag cartridges? |
44307 | Will you take a look at the work of the day? |
44307 | Will you tell me what kind of arms are now used? |
44307 | Will you work all night for that amount? |
44307 | Will you? |
44307 | Would you do more if you could? |
44307 | Yes, I know; but are you going to work so soon? 44307 Yes,"said Cobb;"but would you rather play cinch to remaining here and listening to what I have to say?" |
44307 | Yes,said Hathaway;"but why have you gone to all this trouble with that compass, when you could have put in good- sized springs, as well?" |
44307 | Yes; and you? |
44307 | Yes; but why does it seem to interest you so much? 44307 Yes; have you seen this explosive? |
44307 | Yes; what was it? |
44307 | Yes? |
44307 | Yes? |
44307 | Yes? |
44307 | You are under orders to join your regiment, are you not? |
44307 | You certainly will not ask me to make an attempt which others have declared impossible? |
44307 | You have n''t changed the seasons, have you? |
44307 | You met Mr. Cobb at breakfast, did you not, Irwin? |
44307 | You want her, Lester? |
44307 | You will marry none other than me? 44307 You will pardon my doubts, will you not, Miss Craft?" |
44307 | ''Why not send that daughter to him?'' |
44307 | 2000?" |
44307 | 2000?" |
44307 | 2000?" |
44307 | A few years, and you will come and claim me, will you not, Junius?" |
44307 | A strange statement, is it not? |
44307 | Am I now alive? |
44307 | Am I tedious?" |
44307 | Amid the sobs which came from her heart, she asked:"And will I always be Marie Colchis to you, Junius? |
44307 | And Marie-- what were her thoughts and feelings? |
44307 | And his kindred, where were they? |
44307 | And how had their love ripened, these two of years so wide apart? |
44307 | And if this arctic current could be checked, or driven off, then what?" |
44307 | And she? |
44307 | And the other-- Junius Cobb? |
44307 | And then, was she not now informed of his mission? |
44307 | And why this haste, my daughter?" |
44307 | Are not some more expensive to the government than others?" |
44307 | Are there not other newspapers besides this?" |
44307 | Are we in 1800 or 1900?" |
44307 | Are we really to believe that you have in that case an animal undergoing the treatment you have spoken of?" |
44307 | Are you aware that you are now traveling at the rate of two hundred and forty miles per hour, or four miles per minute?" |
44307 | Are you tired?" |
44307 | As Hugh spoke, he gave the other a severe look, as if to say,"How do you like it?" |
44307 | Both were now prepared for anything which Cobb might advance, for it seemed to each of them that it was no longer a question of"Is it true?" |
44307 | But Cobb had no ill- feeling against the man; he had died long years ago; and what did this theft avail him at that moment? |
44307 | But do you know in which direction the meridian of ten degrees runs, for that is the meridian which passes through Behring Strait?" |
44307 | But does not this extra day interfere in many ways with the dates of bills, notes, and other legal documents?" |
44307 | But have you read this?" |
44307 | But he had taken a dislike to Junius Cobb-- and why? |
44307 | But one other thing troubled him very much, and that was why did the compass- needle mark 899 instead of 260, as it ought to do? |
44307 | But the other-- Junius-- how ran his thoughts? |
44307 | But what battle is this in which he died?" |
44307 | By what misfortune am I thus disturbed and my plans upset? |
44307 | By whose authority do you come? |
44307 | Can you do this?" |
44307 | Can you explain it?" |
44307 | Can you love me in return, for her sake?" |
44307 | Can you make anything out of it?" |
44307 | Chicago, an inland town, to compete with and excel New York, a sea- port city?" |
44307 | Cobb will excuse us for a few minutes, will you not?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Could anyone have dreamed of such a power as this?" |
44307 | Deliberately came the words:"Have you anything to prove your relationship to the President?" |
44307 | Did he ever think of little Marie Colchis? |
44307 | Did n''t I ask you to come here and win the love of Junius Cobb so as to free me from the pain of seeing his love for me unreturned? |
44307 | Did n''t you agree to throw yourself away for Lester''s sake and mine? |
44307 | Did the experiment come up to the ideal? |
44307 | Do they voluntarily enlist?" |
44307 | Do we know it to be worse than the present? |
44307 | Do we know what the future is? |
44307 | Do you believe in the immortality of the soul?" |
44307 | Do you comprehend the drift of my remarks?" |
44307 | Do you comprehend?" |
44307 | Do you hear it? |
44307 | Do you indeed know me?" |
44307 | Do you love Junius Cobb as fondly now as when you were a girl, on the night when he said good- bye and left you? |
44307 | Do you mean that these lights are on stationary vessels in the ocean?" |
44307 | Do you not have them now?" |
44307 | Do you not think it would be cozy and happy?" |
44307 | Do you understand it all now?" |
44307 | Does she know you are going away forever?" |
44307 | Even if collusion brought about a certain nomination, who could tell that that nominee would be elected by the two houses? |
44307 | Feeling this to be the case, he framed his next words accordingly:"Tell me what you mean? |
44307 | Had they all deserted him, that he was thus left alone? |
44307 | Handing one to Craft, he said:"Do you notice anything peculiar about that cartridge?" |
44307 | Has Lester Hathaway any connection with this undertaking?" |
44307 | Has everything been a dream? |
44307 | Hathaway; on time, I see; but where is Craft?" |
44307 | Hathaway?" |
44307 | Have I been asleep since 1887?" |
44307 | Have I been sick? |
44307 | Have I your word?" |
44307 | Have you any more business?" |
44307 | Have you completed everything that is necessary to be done? |
44307 | Have you had a good rest?" |
44307 | Have you no door, or mode of entrance?" |
44307 | He admired Mollie Craft; did he love her? |
44307 | He beamed with the thought, for might he not hear from Marie? |
44307 | He did want it; but for whom? |
44307 | He was living, but where were they? |
44307 | Hear you the word? |
44307 | Holding aloft the empty bullet, he exultingly cried:"Was I not right when I claimed a knowledge of this explosive?" |
44307 | How came you here?" |
44307 | How can you ever say such a thing?" |
44307 | How could it be possible to lose the secret of such a discovery as this?" |
44307 | How is this to be accomplished? |
44307 | How would he be received when he reached there? |
44307 | How, then, does the current pass?" |
44307 | Hugh Craft bowed, and moved behind his sister''s chair, and whispered:"Is he dangerous?" |
44307 | I gave you the weights a few minutes ago; what did I make them?" |
44307 | I have had relatives in the army for many years; I wonder if this man could have been one of my ancestors?" |
44307 | I have seen your aërial ships, large and stanch; why ca n''t you go in one of them?" |
44307 | I have some work to attend to, and I know Junius will excuse me-- will you not?" |
44307 | I hope you do n''t think a man can sleep three months without being satisfied, do you?" |
44307 | I hope you slept well, and are ready for the trip to Pittsburgh?" |
44307 | IS IT TRUE? |
44307 | If I fail, what is the consequence? |
44307 | Is it indeed that year? |
44307 | Is it to be life or death?" |
44307 | Is that perfectly understood?" |
44307 | Is the captain on board?" |
44307 | Is there a secret about it? |
44307 | Is there an inland sea?" |
44307 | Is there anything strange in the name, that you should look at me so doubtingly?" |
44307 | Is this the principle you have been speaking of? |
44307 | It is a remarkable one, is it not?" |
44307 | It is now the 20th of June, A. D. 2000; quite a long time after that set by Mr. Cobb for giving him assistance is it not? |
44307 | It is simple and sure; why, then, should I seek for anything different?" |
44307 | Look here, old fellow,"pettishly exclaimed Hathaway, rising from his chair,"what is all this about, anyway?" |
44307 | Looks funny, does n''t it?" |
44307 | Lost in the ecstasy of the moment, he was rudely awakened to a sense of the reality by the President remarking:"It is a grand sight, is it not?" |
44307 | May not the vision have been given for such an interpretation? |
44307 | Mr. Lyman, will you come along, too?" |
44307 | Not himself? |
44307 | Now, have I not? |
44307 | Now, what would be our velocity falling from this point upon reaching the surface of the earth below?" |
44307 | Of course, I know you refer to the time; but what has been the change in the calendar that you should employ such terms?" |
44307 | On this earth, a human being dies every second; does it interfere with the steady and slow movement of the machinery of life? |
44307 | Once more the eyes opened, and she spoke, but in a stronger voice:"Who are you? |
44307 | Pausing to light a cigar, he then resumed:"How do you feel-- sick or languid?" |
44307 | President?" |
44307 | Scared at a skeleton, eh? |
44307 | She wished to test the man she loved; and why? |
44307 | Tell me, what is the year? |
44307 | Thanking Secretary Fowler for his kindness, Cobb turned to the President and asked:"Is it time to take our departure?" |
44307 | Then aloud:"Is this Miles, who is signed here as Secretary of State, any relation to Brigadier- General Miles, of 1887?" |
44307 | Then starting up with fire in her eye, she cried:"Why not make the attempt ourselves?" |
44307 | Then, after a pause:"Why not open it, Mollie? |
44307 | Then, inquiringly:"Will you show me your finest aërial ship to- morrow?" |
44307 | Then, why care if we die to- day or to- morrow? |
44307 | Turning to Mr. Irwin, he asked:"But where is your steersman-- your lookout, I mean? |
44307 | Turning to his friends, he exclaimed:"Am I not a coward, thus to seek energy and strength in that bottle of liquor? |
44307 | Was he crazy? |
44307 | Was he satisfied to die and live again? |
44307 | Was he to be satisfied with things as he should find them now? |
44307 | Was he to find such changes in the world as he had anticipated? |
44307 | Was he, indeed, crazy? |
44307 | Was he, too, imposing upon the girl''s innocence? |
44307 | Was it a play- thing that he had discovered? |
44307 | Was it known where he was? |
44307 | Was it possible that he was not dreaming? |
44307 | Was the light worth the candle? |
44307 | Was there any harm? |
44307 | Was this the Montgomery street he had so often walked upon? |
44307 | We are all poor, impecunious gentlemen, are we not?" |
44307 | We are now 10,000 feet above the ocean, are we not?" |
44307 | Weak as he was, Cobb sprang toward the opening through which Rawolle was speaking, and excitedly cried:"Is it not 1887? |
44307 | Were I to stop now, what would you think of me? |
44307 | Were you ever in love?" |
44307 | What did he mean by those words? |
44307 | What do you think of my scheme?" |
44307 | What had become of it? |
44307 | What has kept you away?" |
44307 | What is the use of doing anything to- night? |
44307 | What shall I do?" |
44307 | What shall we do?" |
44307 | What should I do? |
44307 | What time will we get there?" |
44307 | What was he standing upon? |
44307 | What was that sound? |
44307 | What were the secrets it contained? |
44307 | What would be his reputation in Washington? |
44307 | What would he do with this power? |
44307 | What''s this?" |
44307 | What''s wanted?" |
44307 | When the Secretary had received them, he gave one to Cobb, saying:"This small bullet does not look much like a cartridge, does it?" |
44307 | When would he come? |
44307 | Where can I behold the work of his loved mind?" |
44307 | Where is my father?" |
44307 | Where was America? |
44307 | Which is the superior of the two? |
44307 | Who is President Craft? |
44307 | Who is this divinity that can hold your thoughts so enthralled when_ I_ am near?" |
44307 | Who knows? |
44307 | Whom would he meet? |
44307 | Why are you so sad to- night?" |
44307 | Why do you look at me in such a manner?" |
44307 | Why must I thus always beat about the bush to seek your society?" |
44307 | Why should I falter? |
44307 | Why was he thus descending into a barren, icy plain miles yet from the pole? |
44307 | Why was it not opened at the proper time? |
44307 | Why was it sent to the Treasurer of the United States, with instructions not to be opened before a hundred years had passed? |
44307 | Will he still love me?" |
44307 | Will it give you pleasure if I tell you that I swear to be true to you-- to wait until you have grown to womanhood? |
44307 | Will you always bear me the love you profess for that other?" |
44307 | Will you give me life? |
44307 | Will you go with me and aid me? |
44307 | Will you not make a confidant of me and tell me all about your loves?" |
44307 | Will you stop the drag a moment?" |
44307 | With a quick, shaking movement, Cobb raised his head, and turned toward the speaker:"What is it, Hugh? |
44307 | With wealth, position, wit, and beauty, what more can you desire? |
44307 | Without replying to the questions, Cobb simply asked:"Will you get the authority for a few simple changes in the construction of this vessel? |
44307 | Words prophetic of what? |
44307 | Would he give up his great undertaking, and live and marry this Hebe, this angel? |
44307 | Would he use it for good, or for evil? |
44307 | Would she not die, if yet alive? |
44307 | Would she quickly forget him, and receive with pleasure the advances of other suitors? |
44307 | Would the woman live through another year? |
44307 | Would there be any difficulty in proving that he was what he claimed to be-- a man who had lived in 1887? |
44307 | Would they succeed? |
44307 | You do not blame me, Mollie, do you?" |
44307 | You do not mean to tell me that these magnificent buildings are built of glass?" |
44307 | You have lived a hundred years; why may you not have known him?" |
44307 | You ought to be ready to get up by this time, I must admit; but that is not to the point: are you in condition to start for Washington to- day?" |
44307 | You will excuse us a few minutes, will you not, Mr. Cobb? |
44307 | You will pardon my rudeness to you this morning, will you not, Colonel Cobb? |
44307 | You will wait until I can claim you from your father? |
44307 | _ Was_ she yet alive? |
44307 | and did her father think that he still remembered his old friends in Duke''s Lane? |
44307 | and how long will their batteries last?" |
44307 | and is it cheaper and as efficient as vapor of water?" |
44307 | and was she not watching and praying for his safe return? |
44307 | and were they the listeners to a lunatic''s chattering discourse? |
44307 | and what would his future be? |
44307 | and where are we now?" |
44307 | can you doubt it?" |
44307 | did I not ask you to meet me here?" |
44307 | did I understand you to say meteorite?" |
44307 | did I? |
44307 | for what is life without him? |
44307 | have I lain here long? |
44307 | he asked again;"are you not joking me? |
44307 | he said, half aloud; then turning to Lieutenant Sibley, he exclaimed:"You spoke of water cylinders; where are they?" |
44307 | is it time to get up? |
44307 | murmured Cobb,"are there no true friends on earth?" |
44307 | or am I awake in the new era?" |
44307 | or are there some few things yet to be gotten ready?" |
44307 | or had he worked out this problem for some great and grand undertaking? |
44307 | or is this some terrible nightmare? |
44307 | or must I go alone?" |
44307 | or, rather, is A. D. 2000 this year?" |
44307 | see it? |
44307 | seeing Cobb so quiet;"or would you like a drink of something to warm the inner man?" |
44307 | she exclaimed; then pointing her delicate finger to a line, she cried:"Do you see that? |
44307 | that I will marry no other woman living but you?" |
44307 | that an-- an-- another is going to take you away from your little girl?" |
44307 | up and down, changeable as a weather- vane; who could expect a stable government? |
44307 | was he not to be envied? |
44307 | what is the matter?" |
44307 | what is this?" |
44307 | you did?" |
44307 | you did?" |
44307 | you spoke to me, did you not?" |
44307 | your friend, for instance, at school?" |
150 | ''And do not the natures of men and women differ very much indeed?'' |
150 | ''Lover of wisdom,''''lover of knowledge,''are titles which we may fitly apply to that part of the soul? |
150 | ''Sweet Sir,''we will say to him, what think you of things esteemed noble and ignoble? |
150 | -- What defence will you make for us, my good Sir, against any one who offers these objections? |
150 | --How would you answer him? |
150 | A right noble thought; but do you suppose that we shall refrain from asking you what is this highest knowledge? |
150 | A state which is intermediate, and a sort of repose of the soul about either-- that is what you mean? |
150 | Adeimantus added: Has no one told you of the torch- race on horseback in honour of the goddess which will take place in the evening? |
150 | After this manner the democrat was generated out of the oligarch? |
150 | Again, as to the devastation of Hellenic territory or the burning of houses, what is to be the practice? |
150 | Again, has he greater experience of the pleasures of honour, or the lover of honour of the pleasures of wisdom? |
150 | Again, is not the passionate element wholly set on ruling and conquering and getting fame? |
150 | Again, when pleasure ceases, that sort of rest or cessation will be painful? |
150 | All of whom will call one another citizens? |
150 | All that would arise out of his ignorance of the true upper and middle and lower regions? |
150 | Also they are utterly unjust, if we were right in our notion of justice? |
150 | Am I not right? |
150 | Am I not right? |
150 | Am I not right? |
150 | Am I not right? |
150 | Am I not right? |
150 | And O my friend, I said, surely the gods are just? |
150 | And a man will be most likely to care about that which he loves? |
150 | And a narrative it remains both in the speeches which the poet recites from time to time and in the intermediate passages? |
150 | And again, if he is forgetful and retains nothing of what he learns, will he not be an empty vessel? |
150 | And agreeably to this mode of thinking and speaking, were we not saying that they will have their pleasures and pains in common? |
150 | And all arithmetic and calculation have to do with number? |
150 | And also of the mental ones; his soul is to be full of spirit? |
150 | And also to be within and between them? |
150 | And an art requiring as much attention as shoemaking? |
150 | And any difference which arises among them will be regarded by them as discord only-- a quarrel among friends, which is not to be called a war? |
150 | And anything which is infected by any of these evils is made evil, and at last wholly dissolves and dies? |
150 | And are enemies also to receive what we owe to them? |
150 | And are suits decided on any other ground but that a man may neither take what is another''s, nor be deprived of what is his own? |
150 | And are you going to run away before you have fairly taught or learned whether they are true or not? |
150 | And are you stronger than all these? |
150 | And as State is to State in virtue and happiness, so is man in relation to man? |
150 | And as we are to have the best of guardians for our city, must they not be those who have most the character of guardians? |
150 | And both pleasure and pain are motions of the soul, are they not? |
150 | And both should be in harmony? |
150 | And by contracts you mean partnerships? |
150 | And can any one of those many things which are called by particular names be said to be this rather than not to be this? |
150 | And can she or can she not fulfil her own ends when deprived of that excellence? |
150 | And can that which does no evil be a cause of evil? |
150 | And can the just by justice make men unjust, or speaking general can the good by virtue make them bad? |
150 | And can there be anything better for the interests of the State than that the men and women of a State should be as good as possible? |
150 | And can therefore neither be ignorance nor knowledge? |
150 | And can you mention any pursuit of mankind in which the male sex has not all these gifts and qualities in a higher degree than the female? |
150 | And democracy has her own good, of which the insatiable desire brings her to dissolution? |
150 | And do I differ from you, he said, as to the importance of the enquiry? |
150 | And do not good practices lead to virtue, and evil practices to vice? |
150 | And do not the two styles, or the mixture of the two, comprehend all poetry, and every form of expression in words? |
150 | And do the unjust appear to you to be wise and good? |
150 | And do they not educate to perfection young and old, men and women alike, and fashion them after their own hearts? |
150 | And do they not share? |
150 | And do we know what we opine? |
150 | And do you also agree, I said, in describing the dialectician as one who attains a conception of the essence of each thing? |
150 | And do you breed from them all indifferently, or do you take care to breed from the best only? |
150 | And do you consider truth to be akin to proportion or to disproportion? |
150 | And do you imagine, I said, that I am such a madman as to try and cheat, Thrasymachus? |
150 | And do you not know, I said, that all mere opinions are bad, and the best of them blind? |
150 | And do you remember the word of caution which preceded the discussion of them? |
150 | And do you take the oldest or the youngest, or only those of ripe age? |
150 | And do you wish to behold what is blind and crooked and base, when others will tell you of brightness and beauty? |
150 | And does not the latter-- I mean the rebellious principle-- furnish a great variety of materials for imitation? |
150 | And does not the same hold also of the ridiculous? |
150 | And does not the same principle hold in the sciences? |
150 | And does not tyranny spring from democracy in the same manner as democracy from oligarchy-- I mean, after a sort? |
150 | And does the essence of the invariable partake of knowledge in the same degree as of essence? |
150 | And dogs are deteriorated in the good qualities of dogs, and not of horses? |
150 | And each art gives us a particular good and not merely a general one-- medicine, for example, gives us health; navigation, safety at sea, and so on? |
150 | And each of them is such as his like is? |
150 | And even to this are there not exceptions? |
150 | And everything else on the style? |
150 | And food and wisdom are the corresponding satisfactions of either? |
150 | And from being a keeper of the law he is converted into a breaker of it? |
150 | And good counsel is clearly a kind of knowledge, for not by ignorance, but by knowledge, do men counsel well? |
150 | And has not the body itself less of truth and essence than the soul? |
150 | And has not the eye an excellence? |
150 | And has not the soul an excellence also? |
150 | And he is good in as far as he is wise, and bad in as far as he is foolish? |
150 | And he is the best guard of a camp who is best able to steal a march upon the enemy? |
150 | And he is the only one who has wisdom as well as experience? |
150 | And he is to be deemed courageous whose spirit retains in pleasure and in pain the commands of reason about what he ought or ought not to fear? |
150 | And he who is most skilful in preventing or escaping from a disease is best able to create one? |
150 | And he who is not on a voyage has no need of a pilot? |
150 | And he who lives well is blessed and happy, and he who lives ill the reverse of happy? |
150 | And his friends and fellow- citizens will want to use him as he gets older for their own purposes? |
150 | And how am I to convince you, he said, if you are not already convinced by what I have just said; what more can I do for you? |
150 | And how am I to do so? |
150 | And how can one who is thus circumstanced ever become a philosopher? |
150 | And how can we rightly answer that question? |
150 | And how does the son come into being? |
150 | And how is the error to be corrected? |
150 | And how long is this stage of their lives to last? |
150 | And how will they proceed? |
150 | And how would he regard the attempt to gain an advantage over the unjust; would that be considered by him as just or unjust? |
150 | And if care was not taken in the breeding, your dogs and birds would greatly deteriorate? |
150 | And if merchandise is to be carried over the sea, skilful sailors will also be needed, and in considerable numbers? |
150 | And if our youth are to do their work in life, must they not make these graces and harmonies their perpetual aim? |
150 | And if that is true, what sort of general must he have been? |
150 | And if the old man and woman fight for their own, what then, my friend? |
150 | And if the world perceives that what we are saying about him is the truth, will they be angry with philosophy? |
150 | And if there be any State in which rulers and subjects will be agreed as to the question who are to rule, that again will be our State? |
150 | And if they are both known to them, one must be the friend and the other the enemy of the gods, as we admitted from the beginning? |
150 | And if they are to be what we were describing, is there not another quality which they should also possess? |
150 | And if they turn out to be two, is not each of them one and different? |
150 | And if they were able to converse with one another, would they not suppose that they were naming what was actually before them? |
150 | And if we only have a guardian who has this knowledge our State will be perfectly ordered? |
150 | And ignorance and folly are inanitions of the soul? |
150 | And in like manner does the touch adequately perceive the qualities of thickness or thinness, or softness or hardness? |
150 | And in oligarchical States, from the general spread of carelessness and extravagance, men of good family have often been reduced to beggary? |
150 | And in our State what other name besides that of citizens do the people give the rulers? |
150 | And in our opinion the guardians ought to have both these qualities? |
150 | And in such a case what is one to say? |
150 | And in that case they will be right in doing good to the evil and evil to the good? |
150 | And in that interval there has now been discovered something which we call opinion? |
150 | And in the first place, he will honour studies which impress these qualities on his soul and disregard others? |
150 | And in the laying of bricks and stones is the just man a more useful or better partner than the builder? |
150 | And in what sort of actions or with a view to what result is the just man most able to do harm to his enemy and good to his friends? |
150 | And inasmuch as they are two, each of them is one? |
150 | And is he likely to be brave who has no spirit, whether horse or dog or any other animal? |
150 | And is he not truly good? |
150 | And is justice dimmer in the individual, and is her form different, or is she the same which we found her to be in the State? |
150 | And is not a State larger than an individual? |
150 | And is not a similar method to be pursued about the virtues, which are also four in number? |
150 | And is not life to be reckoned among the ends of the soul? |
150 | And is not that farthest from reason which is at the greatest distance from law and order? |
150 | And is not the love of learning the love of wisdom, which is philosophy? |
150 | And is not the unjust like the wise and good and the just unlike them? |
150 | And is not their humanity to the condemned in some cases quite charming? |
150 | And is not this involuntary deprivation caused either by theft, or force, or enchantment? |
150 | And is not this the reason why of old love has been called a tyrant? |
150 | And is opinion also a faculty? |
150 | And is our theory a worse theory because we are unable to prove the possibility of a city being ordered in the manner described? |
150 | And is the art of war one of those arts in which she can or can not share? |
150 | And is the city which is under a tyrant rich or poor? |
150 | And is the satisfaction derived from that which has less or from that which has more existence the truer? |
150 | And is there any greater or keener pleasure than that of sensual love? |
150 | And is there any man in whom you will find more of this sort of misery than in the tyrannical man, who is in a fury of passions and desires? |
150 | And is there anything more akin to wisdom than truth? |
150 | And is this confined to the sight only, or does it extend to the hearing also, relating in fact to what we term poetry? |
150 | And it has this particular quality because it has an object of a particular kind; and this is true of the other arts and sciences? |
150 | And just actions cause justice, and unjust actions cause injustice? |
150 | And literature may be either true or false? |
150 | And living in this way we shall have much greater need of physicians than before? |
150 | And luxury and softness are blamed, because they relax and weaken this same creature, and make a coward of him? |
150 | And may not the many which are doubles be also halves?--doubles, that is, of one thing, and halves of another? |
150 | And may we not rightly call such men treacherous? |
150 | And may we not say of the philosopher that he is a lover, not of a part of wisdom only, but of the whole? |
150 | And may we not say the same of all things? |
150 | And may we not say, Adeimantus, that the most gifted minds, when they are ill- educated, become pre- eminently bad? |
150 | And men are blamed for pride and bad temper when the lion and serpent element in them disproportionately grows and gains strength? |
150 | And might a man be thirsty, and yet unwilling to drink? |
150 | And must not an animal be a lover of learning who determines what he likes and dislikes by the test of knowledge and ignorance? |
150 | And must not such a State and such a man be always full of fear? |
150 | And must not the like happen with the spirited or passionate element of the soul? |
150 | And must not the soul be perplexed at this intimation which the sense gives of a hard which is also soft? |
150 | And must not the tyrannical man be like the tyrannical, State, and the democratical man like the democratical State; and the same of the others? |
150 | And must not we swim and try to reach the shore: we will hope that Arion''s dolphin or some other miraculous help may save us? |
150 | And narration may be either simple narration, or imitation, or a union of the two? |
150 | And next, how does he live? |
150 | And next, shall we enquire whether the kindred science also concerns us? |
150 | And no good thing is hurtful? |
150 | And not- being is not one thing but, properly speaking, nothing? |
150 | And now tell me, I conjure you, has not imitation been shown by us to be concerned with that which is thrice removed from the truth? |
150 | And now what is their manner of life, and what sort of a government have they? |
150 | And now why do you not me? |
150 | And now, Adeimantus, is our State matured and perfected? |
150 | And of individuals who consort with the mob and seek to please them? |
150 | And of the objects which are being carried in like manner they would only see the shadows? |
150 | And of the pleasures of love, and all other pleasures, the same holds good? |
150 | And of the unjust may not the opposite be supposed? |
150 | And of truth in the same degree? |
150 | And once more, the inharmonious and unseemly nature can only tend to disproportion? |
150 | And one feature they will erase, and another they will put in, they have made the ways of men, as far as possible, agreeable to the ways of God? |
150 | And one woman has a turn for gymnastic and military exercises, and another is unwarlike and hates gymnastics? |
150 | And one woman is a philosopher, and another is an enemy of philosophy; one has spirit, and another is without spirit? |
150 | And opinion is to have an opinion? |
150 | And ought not the same natures to have the same pursuits? |
150 | And our guardian is both warrior and philosopher? |
150 | And reasoning is peculiarly his instrument? |
150 | And shall I add,''whether seen or unseen by gods and men''? |
150 | And shall we proceed to get rid of the weepings and wailings of famous men? |
150 | And shall we receive into our State all the three styles, or one only of the two unmixed styles? |
150 | And should an immortal being seriously think of this little space rather than of the whole? |
150 | And should we not enquire what sort of knowledge has the power of effecting such a change? |
150 | And so of all the other things;--justice is useful when they are useless, and useless when they are useful? |
150 | And so of the other senses; do they give perfect intimations of such matters? |
150 | And so they will be drawn by a necessity of their natures to have intercourse with each other-- necessity is not too strong a word, I think? |
150 | And so tyranny naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme form of liberty? |
150 | And such a pilot and ruler will provide and prescribe for the interest of the sailor who is under him, and not for his own or the ruler''s interest? |
150 | And suppose injustice abiding in a single person, would your wisdom say that she loses or that she retains her natural power? |
150 | And suppose we make astronomy the third-- what do you say? |
150 | And surely, he said, this occurs notably in the case of one; for we see the same thing to be both one and infinite in multitude? |
150 | And that human virtue is justice? |
150 | And that others should approve of what we approve, is no miracle or impossibility? |
150 | And that to which an end is appointed has also an excellence? |
150 | And that which hurts not does no evil? |
150 | And that which is not hurtful hurts not? |
150 | And that which is opposed to them is one of the inferior principles of the soul? |
150 | And the State which is enslaved under a tyrant is utterly incapable of acting voluntarily? |
150 | And the anticipations of future pleasures and pains are of a like nature? |
150 | And the avaricious, I said, is the oligarchical youth? |
150 | And the better part of the soul is likely to be that which trusts to measure and calculation? |
150 | And the citizens being thus agreed among themselves, in which class will temperance be found-- in the rulers or in the subjects? |
150 | And the country which was enough to support the original inhabitants will be too small now, and not enough? |
150 | And the ear has an end and an excellence also? |
150 | And the end or use of a horse or of anything would be that which could not be accomplished, or not so well accomplished, by any other thing? |
150 | And the fairest is also the loveliest? |
150 | And the forbidding principle is derived from reason, and that which bids and attracts proceeds from passion and disease? |
150 | And the friend he regards and describes as one in whom he has an interest, and the other as a stranger in whom he has no interest? |
150 | And the good is advantageous? |
150 | And the government is the ruling power in each state? |
150 | And the greater the interval which separates them from philosophy and reason, the more strange and illusive will be the pleasure? |
150 | And the greatest degree of evil- doing to one''s own city would be termed by you injustice? |
150 | And the harmonious soul is both temperate and courageous? |
150 | And the higher the duties of the guardian, I said, the more time, and skill, and art, and application will be needed by him? |
150 | And the individual will be acknowledged by us to be just in the same way in which the State is just? |
150 | And the inharmonious is cowardly and boorish? |
150 | And the insatiable desire of wealth and the neglect of all other things for the sake of money- getting was also the ruin of oligarchy? |
150 | And the interest of any art is the perfection of it-- this and nothing else? |
150 | And the just is the good? |
150 | And the kinds of knowledge in a State are many and diverse? |
150 | And the knowing is wise? |
150 | And the laws which they make must be obeyed by their subjects,--and that is what you call justice? |
150 | And the lover of honour-- what will be his opinion? |
150 | And the lustful and tyrannical desires are, as we saw, at the greatest distance? |
150 | And the man who has the spirit of harmony will be most in love with the loveliest; but he will not love him who is of an inharmonious soul? |
150 | And the melody and rhythm will depend upon the words? |
150 | And the more detestable his actions are to the citizens the more satellites and the greater devotion in them will he require? |
150 | And the much greater to the much less? |
150 | And the new government which thus arises will be of a form intermediate between oligarchy and aristocracy? |
150 | And the oligarch is third from the royal; since we count as one royal and aristocratical? |
150 | And the painter too is, as I conceive, just such another-- a creator of appearances, is he not? |
150 | And the persons whose property is taken from them are compelled to defend themselves before the people as they best can? |
150 | And the pilot likewise, in the strict sense of the term, is a ruler of sailors and not a mere sailor? |
150 | And the pilot-- that is to say, the true pilot-- is he a captain of sailors or a mere sailor? |
150 | And the possibility has been acknowledged? |
150 | And the power which the eye possesses is a sort of effluence which is dispensed from the sun? |
150 | And the reason is that each part of him is doing its own business, whether in ruling or being ruled? |
150 | And the reason of this, over and above the general constitution of the State, will be that the guardians will have a community of women and children? |
150 | And the reason why the good are useless has now been explained? |
150 | And the result will be that he becomes a worse potter? |
150 | And the royal and orderly desires are nearest? |
150 | And the same is true of all other things; they have each of them an end and a special excellence? |
150 | And the same observation will apply to all other things? |
150 | And the same of horses and animals in general? |
150 | And the sometime greater to the sometime less, and the greater that is to be to the less that is to be? |
150 | And the tragic poet is an imitator, and therefore, like all other imitators, he is thrice removed from the king and from the truth? |
150 | And the tyrannical soul must be always poor and insatiable? |
150 | And the unjust is good and wise, and the just is neither? |
150 | And the unjust man will strive and struggle to obtain more than the unjust man or action, in order that he may have more than all? |
150 | And the virtue which enters into this competition is justice? |
150 | And the wise is good? |
150 | And the work of the painter is a third? |
150 | And the worker in leather and brass will make them? |
150 | And the young should be trained in both kinds, and we begin with the false? |
150 | And then, although they may have no desire of change, the others charge them with plotting against the people and being friends of oligarchy? |
150 | And there are three kinds of pleasure, which are their several objects? |
150 | And there is a neutral state which is neither pleasure nor pain? |
150 | And therefore he will not sorrow for his departed friend as though he had suffered anything terrible? |
150 | And therefore philosophers must inevitably fall under the censure of the world? |
150 | And therefore the cause of well- being? |
150 | And therefore they are likely to do harm to our young men-- you would agree with me there? |
150 | And therefore to acknowledge that bad and good are the same? |
150 | And they appear to lead the mind towards truth? |
150 | And they will place them under the command of experienced veterans who will be their leaders and teachers? |
150 | And they will take them on the safe expeditions and be cautious about the dangerous ones? |
150 | And things great and small, heavy and light, as they are termed, will not be denoted by these any more than by the opposite names? |
150 | And this assimilation of himself to another, either by the use of voice or gesture, is the imitation of the person whose character he assumes? |
150 | And this is because injustice creates divisions and hatreds and fighting, and justice imparts harmony and friendship; is not that true, Thrasymachus? |
150 | And this is equally true of imitation; no one man can imitate many things as well as he would imitate a single one? |
150 | And this is what the arts of music and gymnastic, when present in such manner as we have described, will accomplish? |
150 | And those who govern ought not to be lovers of the task? |
150 | And to this end they ought to be wise and efficient, and to have a special care of the State? |
150 | And to which class do unity and number belong? |
150 | And was I not right, Adeimantus? |
150 | And we have admitted that justice is the excellence of the soul, and injustice the defect of the soul? |
150 | And we have admitted, I said, that the good of each art is specially confined to the art? |
150 | And what are these? |
150 | And what do the Muses say next? |
150 | And what do the rulers call one another in other States? |
150 | And what do the rulers call the people? |
150 | And what do they call them in other States? |
150 | And what do they receive of men? |
150 | And what do you say of lovers of wine? |
150 | And what do you say to his receiving the right hand of fellowship? |
150 | And what do you think of a second principle? |
150 | And what does the judge affirm to be the life which is next, and the pleasure which is next? |
150 | And what due or proper thing is given by cookery, and to what? |
150 | And what happens? |
150 | And what in ours? |
150 | And what is knowledge, and among whom is it found? |
150 | And what is that which justice gives, and to whom? |
150 | And what is the faculty in man to which imitation is addressed? |
150 | And what is the name which the city derives from the possession of this sort of knowledge? |
150 | And what is the next question? |
150 | And what is the organ with which we see the visible things? |
150 | And what is the prime of life? |
150 | And what is your view about them? |
150 | And what manner of government do you term oligarchy? |
150 | And what may that be? |
150 | And what of passion, or spirit? |
150 | And what of the ignorant? |
150 | And what of the maker of the bed? |
150 | And what shall be their education? |
150 | And what shall we say about men? |
150 | And what shall we say of the carpenter-- is not he also the maker of the bed? |
150 | And what similar use or power of acquisition has justice in time of peace? |
150 | And what then would you say? |
150 | And what would you say of the physician? |
150 | And when these fail? |
150 | And when they meet in private will not people be saying to one another''Our warriors are not good for much''? |
150 | And when truth is the captain, we can not suspect any evil of the band which he leads? |
150 | And when you see the same evils in the tyrannical man, what do you say of him? |
150 | And when you speak of music, do you include literature or not? |
150 | And when you want to buy a ship, the shipwright or the pilot would be better? |
150 | And where do you find them? |
150 | And where freedom is, the individual is clearly able to order for himself his own life as he pleases? |
150 | And which are the harmonies expressive of sorrow? |
150 | And which are the soft or drinking harmonies? |
150 | And which are these two sorts? |
150 | And which is wise and which is foolish? |
150 | And which method do I understand you to prefer? |
150 | And which sort of life, Glaucon, do you prefer? |
150 | And which, I said, of the gods in heaven would you say was the lord of this element? |
150 | And whichever of these qualities we find in the State, the one which is not found will be the residue? |
150 | And who are the devoted band, and where will he procure them? |
150 | And who is best able to do good to his friends and evil to his enemies in time of sickness? |
150 | And why, sillybillies, do you knock under to one another? |
150 | And will any one say that he is not a miserable caitiff who remorselessly sells his own divine being to that which is most godless and detestable? |
150 | And will he then change himself for the better and fairer, or for the worse and more unsightly? |
150 | And will not a true astronomer have the same feeling when he looks at the movements of the stars? |
150 | And will not he who has been shown to be the wickedest, be also the most miserable? |
150 | And will not men who are injured be deteriorated in that which is the proper virtue of man? |
150 | And will not the bravest and wisest soul be least confused or deranged by any external influence? |
150 | And will not the city, which you are founding, be an Hellenic city? |
150 | And will not the words and the character of the style depend on the temper of the soul? |
150 | And will not their wives be the best women? |
150 | And will the habit of body of our ordinary athletes be suited to them? |
150 | And will the love of a lie be any part of a philosopher''s nature? |
150 | And will there be in our city more of these true guardians or more smiths? |
150 | And will they be a class which is rarely found? |
150 | And will they not be lovers of Hellas, and think of Hellas as their own land, and share in the common temples? |
150 | And will you be so very good as to answer one more question? |
150 | And will you have a work better done when the workman has many occupations, or when he has only one? |
150 | And with the hearing, I said, we hear, and with the other senses perceive the other objects of sense? |
150 | And would he try to go beyond just action? |
150 | And would not a really good education furnish the best safeguard? |
150 | And would you call justice vice? |
150 | And would you say that the soul of such an one is the soul of a freeman, or of a slave? |
150 | And yet not so well as with a pruning- hook made for the purpose? |
150 | And yet there is a sense in which the painter also creates a bed? |
150 | And yet you were acknowledging a little while ago that knowledge is not the same as opinion? |
150 | And yet, as you see, there are freemen as well as masters in such a State? |
150 | And you also said that the lust will not go beyond his like but his unlike? |
150 | And you are aware too that the latter can not explain what they mean by knowledge, but are obliged after all to say knowledge of the good? |
150 | And you know that a man who is deranged and not right in his mind, will fancy that he is able to rule, not only over men, but also over the gods? |
150 | And you may further imagine that his instructor is pointing to the objects as they pass and requiring him to name them,--will he not be perplexed? |
150 | And you placed astronomy next, and then you made a step backward? |
150 | And you suppose that I ask these questions with any design of injuring you in the argument? |
150 | And you would say the same of the conception of the good? |
150 | And you would say the same sort of thing of the physician? |
150 | And, conversely, that which has less of truth will also have less of essence? |
150 | Any affinity to wantonness and intemperance? |
150 | Any more than heat can produce cold? |
150 | Any more than they can be rhapsodists and actors at once? |
150 | Are not necessary pleasures those of which we can not get rid, and of which the satisfaction is a benefit to us? |
150 | Are not the chief elements of temperance, speaking generally, obedience to commanders and self- control in sensual pleasures? |
150 | Are not the public who say these things the greatest of all Sophists? |
150 | Are not these functions proper to the soul, and can they rightly be assigned to any other? |
150 | Are you not aware, I said, that the soul of man is immortal and imperishable? |
150 | Are you satisfied then that the quality which makes such men and such states is justice, or do you hope to discover some other? |
150 | As being the same with knowledge, or another faculty? |
150 | As they are or as they appear? |
150 | At any rate you can tell that a song or ode has three parts-- the words, the melody, and the rhythm; that degree of knowledge I may presuppose? |
150 | At what age? |
150 | BOOK IX SOCRATES- ADEIMANTUS LAST of all comes the tyrannical man; about whom we have once more to ask, how is he formed out of the democratical? |
150 | Because I want to know in which of the three classes you would place justice? |
150 | Because it has a particular quality which no other has? |
150 | Beds, then, are of three kinds, and there are three artists who superintend them: God, the maker of the bed, and the painter? |
150 | Beginning with the State, I replied, would you say that a city which is governed by a tyrant is free or enslaved? |
150 | Being is the sphere or subject- matter of knowledge, and knowledge is to know the nature of being? |
150 | But again, will they tell us that such a nature, placed under favourable circumstances, will not be perfectly good and wise if any ever was? |
150 | But although the gods are themselves unchangeable, still by witchcraft and deception they may make us think that they appear in various forms? |
150 | But are not these spirited natures apt to be savage with one another, and with everybody else? |
150 | But are the rulers of states absolutely infallible, or are they sometimes liable to err? |
150 | But can any of these reasons apply to God? |
150 | But can that which is neither become both? |
150 | But can the musician by his art make men unmusical? |
150 | But can you persuade us, if we refuse to listen to you? |
150 | But can you tell me of any other suitable study? |
150 | But can you use different animals for the same purpose, unless they are bred and fed in the same way? |
150 | But did we not say, Thrasymachus, that the unjust goes beyond both his like and unlike? |
150 | But do you imagine that men who are unable to give and take a reason will have the knowledge which we require of them? |
150 | But do you know whom I think good? |
150 | But do you mean to say that this is not the opinion of the multitude? |
150 | But do you not admire, I said, the coolness and dexterity of these ready ministers of political corruption? |
150 | But do you observe the reason of this? |
150 | But do you see, he rejoined, how many we are? |
150 | But does he therefore confer no benefit when he works for nothing? |
150 | But does the painter know the right form of the bit and reins? |
150 | But have you remarked that sight is by far the most costly and complex piece of workmanship which the artificer of the senses ever contrived? |
150 | But he may have friends who are senseless or mad? |
150 | But he would claim to exceed the non- musician? |
150 | But he would wish to go beyond the non- physician? |
150 | But how is the image applicable to the disciples of philosophy? |
150 | But how will they draw out the plan of which you are speaking? |
150 | But how will they know who are fathers and daughters, and so on? |
150 | But if he were taken back again he would imagine, and truly imagine, that he was descending? |
150 | But if so, the tyrant will live most unpleasantly, and the king most pleasantly? |
150 | But if so, the unjust will be the enemy of the gods, and the just will be their friend? |
150 | But if they abstained from injuring one another, then they might act together better? |
150 | But if they are to be courageous, must they not learn other lessons besides these, and lessons of such a kind as will take away the fear of death? |
150 | But is not this unjust? |
150 | But is not war an art? |
150 | But is opinion to be sought without and beyond either of them, in a greater clearness than knowledge, or in a greater darkness than ignorance? |
150 | But is the just man or the skilful player a more useful and better partner at a game of draughts? |
150 | But is there not another name which people give to their rulers in other States? |
150 | But is this equally true of the greatness and smallness of the fingers? |
150 | But let me ask you another question: Has excess of pleasure any affinity to temperance? |
150 | But may he not change and transform himself? |
150 | But next, what shall we say of their food; for the men are in training for the great contest of all-- are they not? |
150 | But ought the just to injure any one at all? |
150 | But ought we to attempt to construct one? |
150 | But shall we be right in getting rid of them? |
150 | But suppose that he were to retort,''Thrasymachus, what do you mean? |
150 | But surely God and the things of God are in every way perfect? |
150 | But surely, Thrasymachus, the arts are the superiors and rulers of their own subjects? |
150 | But that which is neither was just now shown to be rest and not motion, and in a mean between them? |
150 | But the condiments are only necessary in so far as they are good for health? |
150 | But the good are just and would not do an injustice? |
150 | But the hero who has distinguished himself, what shall be done to him? |
150 | But the soul which can not be destroyed by an evil, whether inherent or external, must exist for ever, and if existing for ever, must be immortal? |
150 | But those who see the absolute and eternal and immutable may be said to know, and not to have opinion only? |
150 | But to whom we are to assign these studies, and in what way they are to be assigned, are questions which remain to be considered? |
150 | But we should like to ask him a question: Does he who has knowledge know something or nothing? |
150 | But were we not saying that such a contradiction is the same faculty can not have contrary opinions at the same time about the same thing? |
150 | But what branch of knowledge is there, my dear Glaucon, which is of the desired nature; since all the useful arts were reckoned mean by us? |
150 | But what do you mean by the highest of all knowledge? |
150 | But what do you say of music, which also entered to a certain extent into our former scheme? |
150 | But what do you say to flute- makers and flute- players? |
150 | But what if I give you an answer about justice other and better, he said, than any of these? |
150 | But what if there are no gods? |
150 | But what is the next step? |
150 | But what ought to be their course? |
150 | But what would you have, Glaucon? |
150 | But when a man is well, my dear Polemarchus, there is no need of a physician? |
150 | But when is this fault committed? |
150 | But when they are directed towards objects on which the sun shines, they see clearly and there is sight in them? |
150 | But where are the two? |
150 | But where, amid all this, is justice? |
150 | But which stories do you mean, he said; and what fault do you find with them? |
150 | But why do you ask? |
150 | But why do you ask? |
150 | But why should we dispute about names when we have realities of such importance to consider? |
150 | But will he have no sorrow, or shall we say that although he can not help sorrowing, he will moderate his sorrow? |
150 | But will he not desire to get them on the spot? |
150 | But will the imitator have either? |
150 | But will you let me assume, without reciting them, that these things are true? |
150 | But would any of your guardians think or speak of any other guardian as a stranger? |
150 | But would you call the painter a creator and maker? |
150 | But you can cut off a vine- branch with a dagger or with a chisel, and in many other ways? |
150 | But you see that without the addition of some other nature there is no seeing or being seen? |
150 | But, if Homer never did any public service, was he privately a guide or teacher of any? |
150 | By heaven, would not such an one be a rare educator? |
150 | Can a man help imitating that with which he holds reverential converse? |
150 | Can any man be courageous who has the fear of death in him? |
150 | Can any other origin of a State be imagined? |
150 | Can he have an opinion which is an opinion about nothing? |
150 | Can sight adequately perceive them? |
150 | Can the same nature be a lover of wisdom and a lover of falsehood? |
150 | Can there be any greater evil than discord and distraction and plurality where unity ought to reign? |
150 | Can they have a better place than between being and not- being? |
150 | Can we any longer doubt, then, that the miser and money- maker answers to the oligarchical State? |
150 | Can we deny that a warrior should have a knowledge of arithmetic? |
150 | Can we suppose that he is ignorant of antiquity, and therefore has recourse to invention? |
150 | Can you tell me what imitation is? |
150 | Can you tell me whence I derive this inference? |
150 | Capital, I said; but let me ask you once more: Shall they be a family in name only; or shall they in all their actions be true to the name? |
150 | Certainly, the same principle holds; but why does this involve any particular skill? |
150 | Deteriorated, that is to say, in the good qualities of horses, not of dogs? |
150 | Did this never strike you as curious? |
150 | Did you ever hear any of them which were not? |
150 | Did you hear all the advantages of the unjust which Thrasymachus was rehearsing? |
150 | Did you never hear it? |
150 | Did you never observe in the arts how the potters''boys look on and help, long before they touch the wheel? |
150 | Do I take you with me? |
150 | Do they by attaching to the soul and inhering in her at last bring her to death, and so separate her from the body? |
150 | Do we admit the existence of opinion? |
150 | Do you agree? |
150 | Do you know of any other? |
150 | Do you know where you will have to look if you want to discover his rogueries? |
150 | Do you know, I said, that governments vary as the dispositions of men vary, and that there must be as many of the one as there are of the other? |
150 | Do you mean that there is no such maker or creator, or that in one sense there might be a maker of all these things but in another not? |
150 | Do you mean, for example, that he who is mistaken about the sick is a physician in that he is mistaken? |
150 | Do you not know that all this is but the prelude to the actual strain which we have to learn? |
150 | Do you not know, I said, that the true lie, if such an expression may be allowed, is hated of gods and men? |
150 | Do you not remark, I said, how great is the evil which dialectic has introduced? |
150 | Do you not see them doing the same? |
150 | Do you observe that we were not far wrong in our guess that temperance was a sort of harmony? |
150 | Do you remember? |
150 | Do you see that there is a way in which you could make them all yourself? |
150 | Do you suppose that I call him who is mistaken the stronger at the time when he is mistaken? |
150 | Do you think it right that Hellenes should enslave Hellenic States, or allow others to enslave them, if they can help? |
150 | Do you think that the possession of all other things is of any value if we do not possess the good? |
150 | Do you think that there is anything so very unnatural or inexcusable in their case? |
150 | Do you understand me? |
150 | Does he not call the other pleasures necessary, under the idea that if there were no necessity for them, he would rather not have them? |
150 | Does not like always attract like? |
150 | Does not the practice of despoiling an enemy afford an excuse for not facing the battle? |
150 | Does not the timocratical man change into the oligarchical on this wise? |
150 | Does that look well? |
150 | Does the injustice or other evil which exists in the soul waste and consume her? |
150 | Does the just man try to gain any advantage over the just? |
150 | Each of them, I said, is such as his like is? |
150 | Except a city?--or would you include a city? |
150 | First of all, in regard to slavery? |
150 | First you began with a geometry of plane surfaces? |
150 | First, then, they resemble one another in the value which they set upon wealth? |
150 | For example, I said, can the same thing be at rest and in motion at the same time in the same part? |
150 | For what purpose do you conceive that we have come here, said Thrasymachus,--to look for gold, or to hear discourse? |
150 | For which the art has to consider and provide? |
150 | For you surely would not regard the skilled mathematician as a dialectician? |
150 | Further, I said, has not a drunken man also the spirit of a tyrant? |
150 | Further, the very faculty which is the instrument of judgment is not possessed by the covetous or ambitious man, but only by the philosopher? |
150 | Further, there can be no doubt that a work is spoilt when not done at the right time? |
150 | God forbid, I replied; but may I ask you to consider the image in another point of view? |
150 | Good, I said; then you call him who is third in the descent from nature an imitator? |
150 | Has he not, I said, an occupation; and what profit would there be in his life if he were deprived of his occupation? |
150 | Has not that been admitted? |
150 | Has not the intemperate been censured of old, because in him the huge multiform monster is allowed to be too much at large? |
150 | Have I clearly explained the class which I mean? |
150 | Have we not here a picture of his way of life? |
150 | Having effected this, they will proceed to trace an outline of the constitution? |
150 | He can hardly avoid saying yes-- can he now? |
150 | He looked at me in astonishment, and said: No, by heaven: And are you really prepared to maintain this? |
150 | He mentioned that he was present when one of the spirits asked another,''Where is Ardiaeus the Great?'' |
150 | He said: Who then are the true philosophers? |
150 | He who has an opinion has an opinion about some one thing? |
150 | He will grow more and more indolent and careless? |
150 | His experience, then, will enable him to judge better than any one? |
150 | How can that be? |
150 | How can that be? |
150 | How can there be? |
150 | How can they, he said, if they are blind and can not see? |
150 | How can they, he said, when they are not allowed to apply their minds to the callings of any of these? |
150 | How can we? |
150 | How cast off? |
150 | How do they act? |
150 | How do you distinguish them? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How do you mean? |
150 | How many? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How so? |
150 | How then does a protector begin to change into a tyrant? |
150 | How was that? |
150 | How well I remember the aged poet Sophocles, when in answer to the question, How does love suit with age, Sophocles,--are you still the man you were? |
150 | How will they proceed? |
150 | How would they address us? |
150 | How, then, can we be right in supposing that the absence of pain is pleasure, or that the absence of pleasure is pain? |
150 | How? |
150 | How? |
150 | How? |
150 | How? |
150 | How? |
150 | I am sure that I should be contented-- will not you? |
150 | I assume, I said, that the tyrant is in the third place from the oligarch; the democrat was in the middle? |
150 | I dare say, Glaucon, that you are as much charmed by her as I am, especially when she appears in Homer? |
150 | I do not know, do you? |
150 | I might say the same of the ears; when deprived of their own proper excellence they can not fulfil their end? |
150 | I presume then that you are going to make one of the interdicted answers? |
150 | I proceeded to ask: When two things, a greater and less, are called by the same name, are they like or unlike in so far as they are called the same? |
150 | I repeated, Why am I especially not to be let off? |
150 | I replied; and if we asked him what due or proper thing is given by medicine, and to whom, what answer do you think that he would make to us? |
150 | I said; how shall we find a gentle nature which has also a great spirit, for the one is the contradiction of the other? |
150 | I said; the prelude or what? |
150 | I should like to know whether you have the same notion which I have of this study? |
150 | I suppose that you would call justice virtue and injustice vice? |
150 | I want to know whether ideals are ever fully realised in language? |
150 | I will explain: The body which is large when seen near, appears small when seen at a distance? |
150 | I will proceed by asking a question: Would you not say that a horse has some end? |
150 | I will; and first tell me, Do you admit that it is just or subjects to obey their rulers? |
150 | If wealth and gain were the criterion, then the praise or blame of the lover of gain would surely be the most trustworthy? |
150 | Imitation is only a kind of play or sport, and the tragic poets, whether they write in iambic or in Heroic verse, are imitators in the highest degree? |
150 | In prescribing meats and drinks would he wish to go beyond another physician or beyond the practice of medicine? |
150 | In the first place, are they not free; and is not the city full of freedom and frankness-- a man may say and do what he likes? |
150 | In the next place our youth must be temperate? |
150 | In these cases a man is not compelled to ask of thought the question, what is a finger? |
150 | In what manner? |
150 | In what manner? |
150 | In what particulars? |
150 | In what point of view? |
150 | In what respect do you mean? |
150 | In what respect? |
150 | In what respects? |
150 | In what way make allowance? |
150 | In what way shown? |
150 | In what way, then, will our city be moved, and in what manner the two classes of auxiliaries and rulers disagree among themselves or with one another? |
150 | In what way? |
150 | Indeed, Thrasymachus, and do I really appear to you to argue like an informer? |
150 | Is any better than experience and wisdom and reason? |
150 | Is he not a true image of the State which he represents? |
150 | Is it a third, or akin to one of the preceding? |
150 | Is it not on this wise?--The good at which such a State alms is to become as rich as possible, a desire which is insatiable? |
150 | Is not Polemarchus your heir? |
150 | Is not his case utterly miserable? |
150 | Is not that still more disgraceful? |
150 | Is not that true, Thrasymachus? |
150 | Is not the Republic the vehicle of three or four great truths which, to Plato''s own mind, are most naturally represented in the form of the State? |
150 | Is not the noble that which subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the god in man; and the ignoble that which subjects the man to the beast?'' |
150 | Is not the noble youth very like a well- bred dog in respect of guarding and watching? |
150 | Is not this the case? |
150 | Is not this the way-- he is the son of the miserly and oligarchical father who has trained him in his own habits? |
150 | Is not this true? |
150 | Is not this unavoidable? |
150 | Is not to have lost the truth an evil, and to possess the truth a good? |
150 | Is that true? |
150 | Is there any State in which you will find more of lamentation and sorrow and groaning and pain? |
150 | Is there any city which he might name? |
150 | Is there anything more? |
150 | Is there not also a second class of goods, such as knowledge, sight, health, which are desirable not only in themselves, but also for their results? |
150 | It follows therefore that the good is not the cause of all things, but of the good only? |
150 | It may also be called temperate, and for the same reasons? |
150 | Italy and Sicily boast of Charondas, and there is Solon who is renowned among us; but what city has anything to say about you?'' |
150 | Justice and health of mind will be of the company, and temperance will follow after? |
150 | Labouring in vain, he must end in hating himself and his fruitless occupation? |
150 | Last comes the lover of gain? |
150 | Let me ask you a question: Are not the several arts different, by reason of their each having a separate function? |
150 | Let me explain: Can you see, except with the eye? |
150 | Let us take any common instance; there are beds and tables in the world-- plenty of them, are there not? |
150 | Like husbandry for the acquisition of corn? |
150 | Like ourselves, I replied; and they see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another, which the fire throws on the opposite wall of the cave? |
150 | Look at the matter thus:--Hunger, thirst, and the like, are inanitions of the bodily state? |
150 | May I ask, Cephalus, whether your fortune was for the most part inherited or acquired by you? |
150 | May I have the pleasure, he said, of hearing your opinion? |
150 | May I suppose that you have this distinction of the visible and intelligible fixed in your mind? |
150 | May it not be defined as a period of about twenty years in a woman''s life, and thirty in a man''s? |
150 | May not the relation of sight to this deity be described as follows? |
150 | May there not be the alternative, I said, that we may persuade you to let us go? |
150 | May we not be satisfied with that? |
150 | May we not say that these desires spend, and that the others make money because they conduce to production? |
150 | May we not say that this is the end of a pruning- hook? |
150 | May we say so, then? |
150 | Must he not either perish at the hands of his enemies, or from being a man become a wolf-- that is, a tyrant? |
150 | Must we not ask who are to be rulers and who subjects? |
150 | Must we not then infer that the individual is wise in the same way, and in virtue of the same quality which makes the State wise? |
150 | My question is only whether the just man, while refusing to have more than another just man, would wish and claim to have more than the unjust? |
150 | Need I ask again whether the eye has an end? |
150 | Neither may they imitate smiths or other artificers, or oarsmen, or boatswains, or the like? |
150 | Neither must they represent slaves, male or female, performing the offices of slaves? |
150 | Neither sight nor the eye in which sight resides is the sun? |
150 | Neither will he ever break faith where there have been oaths or agreements? |
150 | Neither would you approve of the delicacies, as they are thought, of Athenian confectionery? |
150 | Neither, I said, can there be any question that the guardian who is to keep anything should have eyes rather than no eyes? |
150 | Next as to the slain; ought the conquerors, I said, to take anything but their armour? |
150 | Next, as to war; what are to be the relations of your soldiers to one another and to their enemies? |
150 | Next, how shall our soldiers treat their enemies? |
150 | Next, we shall ask our opponent how, in reference to any of the pursuits or arts of civic life, the nature of a woman differs from that of a man? |
150 | No one will be less likely to commit adultery, or to dishonour his father and mother, or to fall in his religious duties? |
150 | No, indeed, I replied; and the same is true of most, if not all, the other senses-- you would not say that any of them requires such an addition? |
150 | Nor by reason of a knowledge which advises about brazen pots, I said, nor as possessing any other similar knowledge? |
150 | Nor can the good harm any one? |
150 | Nor may they imitate the neighing of horses, the bellowing of bulls, the murmur of rivers and roll of the ocean, thunder, and all that sort of thing? |
150 | Nor would you say that medicine is the art of receiving pay because a man takes fees when he is engaged in healing? |
150 | Nor yet by reason of a knowledge which cultivates the earth; that would give the city the name of agricultural? |
150 | Nor, if a man is to be in condition, would you allow him to have a Corinthian girl as his fair friend? |
150 | Not to mention the importers and exporters, who are called merchants? |
150 | Now are we to maintain that all these and any who have similar tastes, as well as the professors of quite minor arts, are philosophers? |
150 | Now can we be right in praising and admiring another who is doing that which any one of us would abominate and be ashamed of in his own person? |
150 | Now in vessels which are in a state of mutiny and by sailors who are mutineers, how will the true pilot be regarded? |
150 | Now what man answers to this form of government- how did he come into being, and what is he like? |
150 | Now what opinion of any other Sophist, or of any private person, can be expected to overcome in such an unequal contest? |
150 | Now you understand me? |
150 | Now, I beseech you, do tell me, have you ever attended to their pairing and breeding? |
150 | Now, I said, every art has an interest? |
150 | Now, are not the best husbandmen those who are most devoted to husbandry? |
150 | Now, can we find justice without troubling ourselves about temperance? |
150 | Now, in such a State, can liberty have any limit? |
150 | O my friend, is not that so? |
150 | Of course you know that ambition and avarice are held to be, as indeed they are, a disgrace? |
150 | Of not- being, ignorance was assumed to be the necessary correlative; of being, knowledge? |
150 | Of the painter we say that he will paint reins, and he will paint a bit? |
150 | Of the three individuals, which has the greatest experience of all the pleasures which we enumerated? |
150 | Of what kind? |
150 | Of what nature are you speaking? |
150 | Of what nature? |
150 | Of what sort? |
150 | Of what tales are you speaking? |
150 | On what principle, then, shall we any longer choose justice rather than the worst injustice? |
150 | Once more let me ask: Does he who desires any class of goods, desire the whole class or a part only? |
150 | Once more then, O my friend, we have alighted upon an easy question-- whether the soul has these three principles or not? |
150 | One of them is ready to follow the guidance of the law? |
150 | One principle prevails in the souls of one class of men, another in others, as may happen? |
150 | One woman has a gift of healing, another not; one is a musician, and another has no music in her nature? |
150 | Or any affinity to virtue in general? |
150 | Or because a man is in good health when he receives pay you would not say that the art of payment is medicine? |
150 | Or can such an one account death fearful? |
150 | Or did he only seem to be a member of the ruling body, although in truth he was neither ruler nor subject, but just a spendthrift? |
150 | Or drought moisture? |
150 | Or have the arts to look only after their own interests? |
150 | Or hear, except with the ear? |
150 | Or if honour or victory or courage, in that case the judgement of the ambitious or pugnacious would be the truest? |
150 | Or like shoemaking for the acquisition of shoes,--that is what you mean? |
150 | Or perhaps he may tell a lie because he is afraid of enemies? |
150 | Or shall I guess for you? |
150 | Or that his nature, being such as we have delineated, is akin to the highest good? |
150 | Or the horseman by his art make them bad horsemen? |
150 | Or the verse The saddest of fates is to die and meet destiny from hunger? |
150 | Or when they are on a voyage, amid the perils of the sea? |
150 | Or will he have right opinion from being compelled to associate with another who knows and gives him instructions about what he should draw? |
150 | Or will they prefer those whom we have rejected? |
150 | Or, after all, they may be in the right, and poets do really know the things about which they seem to the many to speak so well? |
150 | Or, if the master would not stay, then the disciples would have followed him about everywhere, until they had got education enough? |
150 | Ought I not to begin by describing how the change from timocracy to oligarchy arises? |
150 | Our State like every other has rulers and subjects? |
150 | Parents and tutors are always telling their sons and their wards that they are to be just; but why? |
150 | Reflect: is not the dreamer, sleeping or waking, one who likens dissimilar things, who puts the copy in the place of the real object? |
150 | Reflect: when a man has an opinion, has he not an opinion about something? |
150 | Reflecting upon these and similar evils, you held the tyrannical State to be the most miserable of States? |
150 | SOCRATES- GLAUCON What do you mean, Socrates? |
150 | SOCRATES- POLEMARCHUS Tell me then, O thou heir of the argument, what did Simonides say, and according to you truly say, about justice? |
150 | Salvation of what? |
150 | Say, then, is not pleasure opposed to pain? |
150 | Shall I assume that we ourselves are able and experienced judges and have before now met with such a person? |
150 | Shall I give you an illustration of them? |
150 | Shall I give you an illustration? |
150 | Shall I tell you whose I believe the saying to be? |
150 | Shall I tell you why? |
150 | Shall we begin by assuring him that he is welcome to any knowledge which he may have, and that we are rejoiced at his having it? |
150 | Shall we begin education with music, and go on to gymnastic afterwards? |
150 | Shall we not? |
150 | Shall we, after the manner of Homer, pray the Muses to tell us''how discord first arose''? |
150 | Shall we, then, speak of Him as the natural author or maker of the bed? |
150 | Should not their custom be to spare them, considering the danger which there is that the whole race may one day fall under the yoke of the barbarians? |
150 | Socrates, has taken possession of you all? |
150 | Socrates, what do you mean? |
150 | Socrates; do you want to know how much I acquired? |
150 | Something that is or is not? |
150 | Something that is; for how can that which is not ever be known? |
150 | Still, I should like to ascertain how astronomy can be learned in any manner more conducive to that knowledge of which we are speaking? |
150 | Still, the dangers of war can not be always foreseen; there is a good deal of chance about them? |
150 | Such is the tale; is there any possibility of making our citizens believe in it? |
150 | Such will be the change, and after the change has been made, how will they proceed? |
150 | Such, then, are the palms of victory which the gods give the just? |
150 | Suppose now that by the light of the examples just offered we enquire who this imitator is? |
150 | Suppose we call it the contentious or ambitious-- would the term be suitable? |
150 | Suppose we select an example of either kind, in order that we may have a general notion of them? |
150 | Tell me, Thrasymachus, I said, did you mean by justice what the stronger thought to be his interest, whether really so or not? |
150 | Tell me: will he be more likely to struggle and hold out against his sorrow when he is seen by his equals, or when he is alone? |
150 | That is also good, he said; but I should like to know what you mean? |
150 | That is his meaning then? |
150 | That is quite true, he said; but to what are you alluding? |
150 | That is to say, justice is useful when money is useless? |
150 | That since beauty is the opposite of ugliness, they are two? |
150 | That there are three arts which are concerned with all things: one which uses, another which makes, a third which imitates them? |
150 | That will be the way? |
150 | The State which we have been describing is said to be wise as being good in counsel? |
150 | The existence of such persons is to be attributed to want of education, ill- training, and an evil constitution of the State? |
150 | The good which oligarchy proposed to itself and the means by which it was maintained was excess of wealth-- am I not right? |
150 | The imitative artist will be in a brilliant state of intelligence about his own creations? |
150 | The just man then, if we regard the idea of justice only, will be like the just State? |
150 | The object of one is food, and of the other drink? |
150 | The one loves and embraces the subjects of knowledge, the other those of opinion? |
150 | The pleasure of eating is necessary in two ways; it does us good and it is essential to the continuance of life? |
150 | The process is as follows: When a potter becomes rich, will he, think you, any longer take the same pains with his art? |
150 | The ruler may impose the laws and institutions which we have been describing, and the citizens may possibly be willing to obey them? |
150 | The soul, I said, being, as is now proven, immortal, must be the fairest of compositions and can not be compounded of many elements? |
150 | The true lie is hated not only by the gods, but also by men? |
150 | The true lover of learning then must from his earliest youth, as far as in him lies, desire all truth? |
150 | The very great benefit has next to be established? |
150 | The whole period of threescore years and ten is surely but a little thing in comparison with eternity? |
150 | Their pleasures are mixed with pains-- how can they be otherwise? |
150 | Then I may infer courage to be such as you describe? |
150 | Then I suppose that opinion appears to you to be darker than knowledge, but lighter than ignorance? |
150 | Then I suppose that we ought to do good to the just and harm to the unjust? |
150 | Then a city is not to be called wise because possessing a knowledge which counsels for the best about wooden implements? |
150 | Then a soul which forgets can not be ranked among genuine philosophic natures; we must insist that the philosopher should have a good memory? |
150 | Then according to your argument it is just to injure those who do no wrong? |
150 | Then an evil soul must necessarily be an evil ruler and superintendent, and the good soul a good ruler? |
150 | Then are we to impose all our enactments on men and none of them on women? |
150 | Then carpenters, and smiths, and many other artisans, will be sharers in our little State, which is already beginning to grow? |
150 | Then clearly the next thing will be to make matrimony sacred in the highest degree, and what is most beneficial will be deemed sacred? |
150 | Then comparing our original city, which was under a king, and the city which is under a tyrant, how do they stand as to virtue? |
150 | Then everything which is good, whether made by art or nature, or both, is least liable to suffer change from without? |
150 | Then he can hardly be compelled by external influence to take many shapes? |
150 | Then he who is a good keeper of anything is also a good thief? |
150 | Then he who is to be a really good and noble guardian of the State will require to unite in himself philosophy and spirit and swiftness and strength? |
150 | Then he will no more have true opinion than he will have knowledge about the goodness or badness of his imitations? |
150 | Then hirelings will help to make up our population? |
150 | Then how can he who has magnificence of mind and is the spectator of all time and all existence, think much of human life? |
150 | Then if being is the subject- matter of knowledge, something else must be the subject- matter of opinion? |
150 | Then if geometry compels us to view being, it concerns us; if becoming only, it does not concern us? |
150 | Then if the constitutions of States are five, the dispositions of individual minds will also be five? |
150 | Then if the man is like the State, I said, must not the same rule prevail? |
150 | Then if there be any city which may be described as master of its own pleasures and desires, and master of itself, ours may claim such a designation? |
150 | Then in every way the laws will help the citizens to keep the peace with one another? |
150 | Then in making their laws they may sometimes make them rightly, and sometimes not? |
150 | Then in this case the narrative of the poet may be said to proceed by way of imitation? |
150 | Then in this kind of State there will be the greatest variety of human natures? |
150 | Then in time of peace justice will be of no use? |
150 | Then it will be our duty to select, if we can, natures which are fitted for the task of guarding the city? |
150 | Then justice, according to your argument, is not only obedience to the interest of the stronger but the reverse? |
150 | Then knowledge and opinion having distinct powers have also distinct spheres or subject- matters? |
150 | Then medicine does not consider the interest of medicine, but the interest of the body? |
150 | Then men who are injured are of necessity made unjust? |
150 | Then more husbandmen and more artisans will be required? |
150 | Then must not a further admission be made? |
150 | Then no intemperance or madness should be allowed to approach true love? |
150 | Then no motive can be imagined why God should lie? |
150 | Then on this view also justice will be admitted to be the having and doing what is a man''s own, and belongs to him? |
150 | Then opinion and knowledge have to do with different kinds of matter corresponding to this difference of faculties? |
150 | Then opinion is not concerned either with being or with not- being? |
150 | Then reflect; has the ear or voice need of any third or additional nature in order that the one may be able to hear and the other to be heard? |
150 | Then shall we propose this as a second branch of knowledge which our youth will study? |
150 | Then shall we try to find some way of convincing him, if we can, that he is saying what is not true? |
150 | Then that is not the knowledge which we are seeking to discover? |
150 | Then that part of the soul which has an opinion contrary to measure is not the same with that which has an opinion in accordance with measure? |
150 | Then the art of war partakes of them? |
150 | Then the community of wives and children among our citizens is clearly the source of the greatest good to the State? |
150 | Then the cowardly and mean nature has no part in true philosophy? |
150 | Then the intermediate state of rest will be pleasure and will also be pain? |
150 | Then the just is happy, and the unjust miserable? |
150 | Then the just is like the wise and good, and the unjust like the evil and ignorant? |
150 | Then the just soul and the just man will live well, and the unjust man will live ill? |
150 | Then the lover of wisdom has a great advantage over the lover of gain, for he has a double experience? |
150 | Then the lying poet has no place in our idea of God? |
150 | Then the soul of the thirsty one, in so far as he is thirsty, desires only drink; for this he yearns and tries to obtain it? |
150 | Then the superhuman and divine is absolutely incapable of falsehood? |
150 | Then the tyrant is removed from true pleasure by the space of a number which is three times three? |
150 | Then the tyrant will live at the greatest distance from true or natural pleasure, and the king at the least? |
150 | Then the wise and good will not desire to gain more than his like, but more than his unlike and opposite? |
150 | Then the world can not possibly be a philosopher? |
150 | Then there is nothing impossible or out of the order of nature in our finding a guardian who has a similar combination of qualities? |
150 | Then there must be another class of citizens who will bring the required supply from another city? |
150 | Then they will quarrel as those who intend some day to be reconciled? |
150 | Then this is the progress which you call dialectic? |
150 | Then this new kind of knowledge must have an additional quality? |
150 | Then to injure a friend or any one else is not the act of a just man, but of the opposite, who is the unjust? |
150 | Then to them the good will be enemies and the evil will be their friends? |
150 | Then virtue is the health and beauty and well- being of the soul, and vice the disease and weakness and deformity of the same? |
150 | Then we have found the desired natures; and now that we have found them, how are they to be reared and educated? |
150 | Then we have made an enactment not only possible but in the highest degree beneficial to the State? |
150 | Then we have now, I said, the second form of government and the second type of character? |
150 | Then we may assume that our athletes will be able to fight with two or three times their own number? |
150 | Then we may begin by assuming that there are three classes of men-- lovers of wisdom, lovers of honour, lovers of gain? |
150 | Then we must abstain from spoiling the dead or hindering their burial? |
150 | Then we shall want merchants? |
150 | Then what is that joint use of silver or gold in which the just man is to be preferred? |
150 | Then what is your meaning? |
150 | Then what will you do with them? |
150 | Then when the person who asks me is not in his right mind I am by no means to make the return? |
150 | Then who is more miserable? |
150 | Then why should you mind? |
150 | Then will not the citizens be good and civilized? |
150 | Then women must be taught music and gymnastic and also the art of war, which they must practise like the men? |
150 | Then would you call injustice malignity? |
150 | Then you never heard of the saying of Phocylides, that as soon as a man has a livelihood he should practise virtue? |
150 | Then you will make a law that they shall have such an education as will enable them to attain the greatest skill in asking and answering questions? |
150 | Then you would infer that opinion is intermediate? |
150 | Then you would not approve of Syracusan dinners, and the refinements of Sicilian cookery? |
150 | Then, I said, if these and these only are to be used in our songs and melodies, we shall not want multiplicity of notes or a panharmonic scale? |
150 | Then, I said, no science or art considers or enjoins the interest of the stronger or superior, but only the interest of the subject and weaker? |
150 | Then, I said, our guardians must lay the foundations of their fortress in music? |
150 | Then, again, within the city, how will they exchange their productions? |
150 | Then, do you see any way in which the philosopher can be preserved in his calling to the end? |
150 | Then, if there be any good which all artists have in common, that is to be attributed to something of which they all have the common use? |
150 | Then, if women are to have the same duties as men, they must have the same nurture and education? |
150 | Then, under the influence either of poverty or of wealth, workmen and their work are equally liable to degenerate? |
150 | There is a thing which you call good and another which you call evil? |
150 | There is another which is the work of the carpenter? |
150 | There is the knowledge of the carpenter; but is that the sort of knowledge which gives a city the title of wise and good in counsel? |
150 | There were two parts in our former scheme of education, were there not? |
150 | There you are right, he replied; but if any one asks where are such models to be found and of what tales are you speaking-- how shall we answer him? |
150 | These then may be truly said to be the ends of these organs? |
150 | These, then, are the two kinds of style? |
150 | They are like faces which were never really beautiful, but only blooming; and now the bloom of youth has passed away from them? |
150 | They have in view practice only, and are always speaking? |
150 | They will use friendly correction, but will not enslave or destroy their opponents; they will be correctors, not enemies? |
150 | This, I said, is he who begins to make a party against the rich? |
150 | This, then, will be the first great defect of oligarchy? |
150 | Thus much of music, which makes a fair ending; for what should be the end of music if not the love of beauty? |
150 | To be sure, he said; how can he think otherwise? |
150 | To what do you refer? |
150 | To what do you refer? |
150 | True, I said; but would you never allow them to run any risk? |
150 | True, he replied; but what of that? |
150 | True, he said; how could they see anything but the shadows if they were never allowed to move their heads? |
150 | Undoubtedly; and yet if music and gymnastic are excluded, and the arts are also excluded, what remains? |
150 | Until some one rare and grand result is reached which may be good, and may be the reverse of good? |
150 | Very good, I said; then what is the next question? |
150 | Very good, Thrasymachus, I said; and now to take the case of the arts: you would admit that one man is a musician and another not a musician? |
150 | Very true, Adeimantus; but then, would any one, whether God or man, desire to make himself worse? |
150 | Very true, I said; that is what I have to do: But will you be so good as answer yet one more question? |
150 | Very true, he said; but what are these forms of theology which you mean? |
150 | Very true, said Adeimantus; but how does the illustration apply to our enquiry? |
150 | Was not the selection of the male guardians determined by differences of this sort? |
150 | Was not this the beginning of the enquiry''What is great?'' |
150 | We acknowledged-- did we not? |
150 | We are not wrong therefore in calling them necessary? |
150 | We can not but remember that the justice of the State consisted in each of the three classes doing the work of its own class? |
150 | We had to consider, first, whether our proposals were possible, and secondly whether they were the most beneficial? |
150 | We must recollect that the individual in whom the several qualities of his nature do their own work will be just, and will do his own work? |
150 | We were saying that the parents should be in the prime of life? |
150 | We were saying, when we spoke of the subject- matter, that we had no need of lamentations and strains of sorrow? |
150 | Well said, Cephalus, I replied; but as concerning justice, what is it?--to speak the truth and to pay your debts-- no more than this? |
150 | Well then, here are three beds: one existing in nature, which is made by God, as I think that we may say-- for no one else can be the maker? |
150 | Well then, is not- being the subject- matter of opinion? |
150 | Well, I said, and how does the change from oligarchy into democracy arise? |
150 | Well, I said, and in oligarchical States do you not find paupers? |
150 | Well, I said, and is there no evil which corrupts the soul? |
150 | Well, I said, and you would agree( would you not?) |
150 | Well, I said; but if we suppose a change in anything, that change must be effected either by the thing itself, or by some other thing? |
150 | Well, and are these of any military use? |
150 | Well, and can the eyes fulfil their end if they are wanting in their own proper excellence and have a defect instead? |
150 | Well, and do you think that those who say so are wrong? |
150 | Well, and is not this one quality, to mention no others, greatly at variance with present notions of him? |
150 | Well, and were we not creating an ideal of a perfect State? |
150 | Well, and your guardian must be brave if he is to fight well? |
150 | Well, but can you imagine that God will be willing to lie, whether in word or deed, or to put forth a phantom of himself? |
150 | Well, but has any one a right to say positively what he does not know? |
150 | Well, but if they are ever to run a risk should they not do so on some occasion when, if they escape disaster, they will be the better for it? |
150 | Well, but is there any war on record which was carried on successfully by him, or aided by his counsels, when he was alive? |
150 | Well, but what ought to be the criterion? |
150 | Well, he said, have you never heard that forms of government differ; there are tyrannies, and there are democracies, and there are aristocracies? |
150 | Well, there is another question: By friends and enemies do we mean those who are so really, or only in seeming? |
150 | Well, you know of course that the greater is relative to the less? |
150 | Well; and has not the soul an end which nothing else can fulfil? |
150 | Were not these your words? |
150 | Were you not saying that he too makes, not the idea which, according to our view, is the essence of the bed, but only a particular bed? |
150 | What about this? |
150 | What admission? |
150 | What admissions? |
150 | What are these corruptions? |
150 | What are they, he said, and where shall I find them? |
150 | What are they? |
150 | What are they? |
150 | What are they? |
150 | What are you going to say? |
150 | What causes? |
150 | What defect? |
150 | What did I borrow? |
150 | What division? |
150 | What do they say? |
150 | What do you consider to be the greatest blessing which you have reaped from your wealth? |
150 | What do you deserve to have done to you? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you mean? |
150 | What do you say? |
150 | What do you say? |
150 | What do you say? |
150 | What do you think? |
150 | What else can they do? |
150 | What else then would you say? |
150 | What else would you have? |
150 | What evil? |
150 | What evil? |
150 | What evils? |
150 | What faculty? |
150 | What good? |
150 | What is it? |
150 | What is it? |
150 | What is it? |
150 | What is most required? |
150 | What is that you are saying? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is that? |
150 | What is the difference? |
150 | What is the process? |
150 | What is the proposition? |
150 | What is there remaining? |
150 | What is to be done then? |
150 | What is your illustration? |
150 | What is your notion? |
150 | What is your proposal? |
150 | What limit would you propose? |
150 | What makes you say that? |
150 | What may that be? |
150 | What may that be? |
150 | What may that be? |
150 | What of this line, O heavy with wine, who hast the eyes of a dog and the heart of a stag, and of the words which follow? |
150 | What point of view? |
150 | What point? |
150 | What point? |
150 | What quality? |
150 | What quality? |
150 | What question? |
150 | What shall he profit, if his injustice be undetected and unpunished? |
150 | What shall we say to him? |
150 | What should they fear? |
150 | What sort of instances do you mean? |
150 | What sort of knowledge is there which would draw the soul from becoming to being? |
150 | What sort of lie? |
150 | What sort of mischief? |
150 | What tale? |
150 | What then is the real object of them? |
150 | What then? |
150 | What trait? |
150 | What was the error, Polemarchus? |
150 | What was the mistake? |
150 | What was the omission? |
150 | What way? |
150 | What will be the issue of such marriages? |
150 | What, Thrasymachus, is the meaning of this? |
150 | What, again, is the meaning of light and heavy, if that which is light is also heavy, and that which is heavy, light? |
150 | What, are there any greater still? |
150 | What, he said, is there a knowledge still higher than this-- higher than justice and the other virtues? |
150 | What, not, I said, if he were able to run away and then turn and strike at the one who first came up? |
150 | What, then, he said, is still remaining to us of the work of legislation? |
150 | What? |
150 | What? |
150 | When Simonides said that the repayment of a debt was justice, he did not mean to include that case? |
150 | When a man can not measure, and a great many others who can not measure declare that he is four cubits high, can he help believing what they say? |
150 | When he is by himself he will not mind saying or doing many things which he would be ashamed of any one hearing or seeing him do? |
150 | When horses are injured, are they improved or deteriorated? |
150 | When is this accomplished? |
150 | When they make them rightly, they make them agreeably to their interest; when they are mistaken, contrary to their interest; you admit that? |
150 | Where must I look? |
150 | Where then? |
150 | Where, then, is justice, and where is injustice, and in what part of the State did they spring up? |
150 | Whereas he who has a taste for every sort of knowledge and who is curious to learn and is never satisfied, may be justly termed a philosopher? |
150 | Whereas the bad and ignorant will desire to gain more than both? |
150 | Whereas the physician and the carpenter have different natures? |
150 | Whereas true love is a love of beauty and order-- temperate and harmonious? |
150 | Which appetites do you mean? |
150 | Which are they? |
150 | Which is a just principle? |
150 | Which of us has spoken truly? |
150 | Which years do you mean to include? |
150 | Who better suited to raise the question of justice than Cephalus, whose life might seem to be the expression of it? |
150 | Who can be at enmity with one who loves them, who that is himself gentle and free from envy will be jealous of one in whom there is no jealousy? |
150 | Who is he? |
150 | Who is it, I said, whom you are refusing to let off? |
150 | Who is that? |
150 | Who then are those whom we shall compel to be guardians? |
150 | Who was that? |
150 | Whose is that light which makes the eye to see perfectly and the visible to appear? |
150 | Whose? |
150 | Why do you ask such a question, I said, when you ought rather to be answering? |
150 | Why do you say so? |
150 | Why great caution? |
150 | Why indeed, he said, when any name will do which expresses the thought of the mind with clearness? |
150 | Why is that? |
150 | Why not, as Aeschylus says, utter the word which rises to our lips? |
150 | Why not? |
150 | Why not? |
150 | Why not? |
150 | Why not? |
150 | Why not? |
150 | Why should they not be? |
150 | Why so? |
150 | Why so? |
150 | Why so? |
150 | Why so? |
150 | Why, I said, do you not see that men are unwillingly deprived of good, and willingly of evil? |
150 | Why, I said, what was ever great in a short time? |
150 | Why, in the first place, although they are all of a good sort, are not some better than others? |
150 | Why, what else is there? |
150 | Why, where can they still find any ground for objection? |
150 | Why, yes, I said, of course they answer truly; how can the Muses speak falsely? |
150 | Why, yes, he said: how can any reasonable being ever identify that which is infallible with that which errs? |
150 | Why, you do not mean to say that the tyrant will use violence? |
150 | Why? |
150 | Why? |
150 | Why? |
150 | Will any one deny the other point, that there may be sons of kings or princes who are by nature philosophers? |
150 | Will any private training enable him to stand firm against the overwhelming flood of popular opinion? |
150 | Will he know from use whether or no his drawing is correct or beautiful? |
150 | Will he not also require natural aptitude for his calling? |
150 | Will he not be called by them a prater, a star- gazer, a good- for- nothing? |
150 | Will he not fancy that the shadows which he formerly saw are truer than the objects which are now shown to him? |
150 | Will he not have the notions of good and evil which the public in general have-- he will do as they do, and as they are, such will he be? |
150 | Will he not think that heaven and the things in heaven are framed by the Creator of them in the most perfect manner? |
150 | Will he not utterly hate a lie? |
150 | Will horsemen carry torches and pass them one to another during the race? |
150 | Will not such an one from his early childhood be in all things first among all, especially if his bodily endowments are like his mental ones? |
150 | Will not the guardians be the smallest of all the classes who receive a name from the profession of some kind of knowledge? |
150 | Will the creature feel any compunction at tyrannizing over them? |
150 | Will the just man or citizen ever be guilty of sacrilege or theft, or treachery either to his friends or to his country? |
150 | Will they disbelieve us, when we tell them that no State can be happy which is not designed by artists who imitate the heavenly pattern? |
150 | Will they doubt that the philosopher is a lover of truth and being? |
150 | Will they not be sophisms captivating to the ear, having nothing in them genuine, or worthy of or akin to true wisdom? |
150 | Will they not be vile and bastard? |
150 | Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves? |
150 | Will you admit so much? |
150 | Will you be a little more explicit? |
150 | Will you enquire yourself? |
150 | Will you explain your meaning? |
150 | Will you repay me, then, what you borrowed in the argument? |
150 | Will you say whether you approve of my proposal? |
150 | Will you tell me? |
150 | Will you tell me? |
150 | Will you then kindly answer, for the edification of the company and of myself? |
150 | Would any one deny this? |
150 | Would he allow imitation to be the ruling principle of his life, as if he had nothing higher in him? |
150 | Would he not rather say or do the same as his like in the same case? |
150 | Would not he who is fitted to be a guardian, besides the spirited nature, need to have the qualities of a philosopher? |
150 | Would that be your way of speaking? |
150 | Would they not have been as unwilling to part with them as with gold, and have compelled them to stay at home with them? |
150 | Would you agree with me in thinking that the corrupting and destroying element is the evil, and the saving and improving element the good? |
150 | Would you call one of them virtue and the other vice? |
150 | Would you have me put the proof bodily into your souls? |
150 | Would you know the measure of the interval which separates them? |
150 | Would you like, for the sake of clearness, to distinguish which are the necessary and which are the unnecessary pleasures? |
150 | Would you say six or four years? |
150 | Would you say that all men are equal in excellence, or is one man better than another? |
150 | Would you say that knowledge is a faculty, or in what class would you place it? |
150 | Yes, I said, a jest; and why? |
150 | Yes, I said; and the higher principle is ready to follow this suggestion of reason? |
150 | Yes, I said; and this being true of one must be equally true of all number? |
150 | Yes, I said; and when a man dies gloriously in war shall we not say, in the first place, that he is of the golden race? |
150 | Yes, I said; but if this definition of justice also breaks down, what other can be offered? |
150 | Yes, Socrates, he said, and if you were providing for a city of pigs, how else would you feed the beasts? |
150 | Yes, but do not persons often err about good and evil: many who are not good seem to be so, and conversely? |
150 | Yes, he replied, such is very often the case; but what has that to do with us and our argument? |
150 | Yes, he said, that sort of thing is certainly very blamable; but what are the stories which you mean? |
150 | Yes, he said; but what are the characteristics of this form of government, and what are the defects of which we were speaking? |
150 | Yes, he said; how can I deny it? |
150 | Yes, that is very true, but may I ask another question? |
150 | Yes, the greatest; but will you explain yourself? |
150 | Yes; and is not this true of the government of anything? |
150 | Yet if he is not the maker, what is he in relation to the bed? |
150 | Yet of all the organs of sense the eye is the most like the sun? |
150 | You are aware, I suppose, that all mythology and poetry is a narration of events, either past, present, or to come? |
150 | You have answered me, I replied: Well, and may we not further say that our guardians are the best of our citizens? |
150 | You know that they live securely and have nothing to apprehend from their servants? |
150 | You mean geometry? |
150 | You mean that they would shipwreck? |
150 | You mean that you do not understand the nature of this payment which to the best men is the great inducement to rule? |
150 | You mean to ask, I said, what will be our answer? |
150 | You mean to say that the people, from whom he has derived his being, will maintain him and his companions? |
150 | You mean when money is not wanted, but allowed to lie? |
150 | You mean, I suspect, to ask whether tragedy and comedy shall be admitted into our State? |
150 | You recognise the truth of what I have been saying? |
150 | You remember what people say when they are sick? |
150 | You remember, I said, how the rulers were chosen before? |
150 | You say that perfect injustice is more gainful than perfect justice? |
150 | You think that justice may be of use in peace as well as in war? |
150 | You will admit that the same education which makes a man a good guardian will make a woman a good guardian; for their original nature is the same? |
150 | You would agree with me? |
150 | You would allow, I said, that there is in nature an upper and lower and middle region? |
150 | You would argue that the good are our friends and the bad our enemies? |
150 | You would compare them, I said, to those invalids who, having no self- restraint, will not leave off their habits of intemperance? |
150 | You would not be inclined to say, would you, that navigation is the art of medicine, at least if we are to adopt your exact use of language? |
150 | You would not deny that those who have any true notion without intelligence are only like blind men who feel their way along the road? |
150 | and are not the best judges in like manner those who are acquainted with all sorts of moral natures? |
150 | and does not the actual tyrant lead a worse life than he whose life you determined to be the worst? |
150 | and he who has tyrannized longest and most, most continually and truly miserable; although this may not be the opinion of men in general? |
150 | and how does he live, in happiness or in misery? |
150 | and how shall we manage the period between birth and education, which seems to require the greatest care? |
150 | and is no difference made by the circumstance that one of the fingers is in the middle and another at the extremity? |
150 | and must he not be represented as such? |
150 | and you would agree that to conceive things as they are is to possess the truth? |
150 | and''What is small?'' |
150 | beat his father if he opposes him? |
150 | have heard them say that there is nothing pleasanter than to get rid of their pain? |
150 | he said; are they not capable of defending themselves? |
150 | he said; ought we to give them a worse life, when they might have a better? |
150 | or any greater good than the bond of unity? |
150 | or is the subject- matter of opinion the same as the subject- matter of knowledge? |
150 | or that he who errs in arithmetic or grammar is an arithmetician or grammarian at the me when he is making the mistake, in respect of the mistake? |
150 | or the knowledge of all other things if we have no knowledge of beauty and goodness? |
150 | or will he be carried away by the stream? |
150 | or will you make allowance for them? |
150 | or would you include the mixed? |
150 | or, rather, how can there be an opinion at all about not- being? |
150 | or, suppose them to have no care of human things-- why in either case should we mind about concealment? |
150 | shall we condescend to legislate on any of these particulars? |
150 | would he not desire to have more than either the knowing or the ignorant? |
150 | you are incredulous, are you? |
1497 | Will he,in the language of Pindar,"make justice his high tower, or fortify himself with crooked deceit?" |
1497 | ''And a true answer, of course:--but what more have they to say?'' |
1497 | ''And can we conceive things greater still?'' |
1497 | ''And do not the natures of men and women differ very much indeed?'' |
1497 | ''And how will they begin their work?'' |
1497 | ''And is her proper state ours or some other?'' |
1497 | ''And what are the highest?'' |
1497 | ''And what can I do more for you?'' |
1497 | ''And what will they say?'' |
1497 | ''But how shall we know the degrees of affinity, when all things are common?'' |
1497 | ''But if many states join their resources, shall we not be in danger?'' |
1497 | ''But then how will our poor city be able to go to war against an enemy who has money?'' |
1497 | ''But will curiosity make a philosopher? |
1497 | ''But, Socrates, what is this supreme principle, knowledge or pleasure, or what? |
1497 | ''But, my dear Socrates, you are forgetting the main question: Is such a State possible? |
1497 | ''But,''said Glaucon, interposing,''are they not to have a relish?'' |
1497 | ''Do you ask whether tragedy and comedy are to be admitted?'' |
1497 | ''Glorious, indeed; but what is to follow?'' |
1497 | ''How can we resist such arguments in favour of injustice? |
1497 | ''I do not understand what you mean?'' |
1497 | ''I should like to know of what constitutions you were speaking?'' |
1497 | ''Is it possible? |
1497 | ''Lover of wisdom,''''lover of knowledge,''are titles which we may fitly apply to that part of the soul? |
1497 | ''Socrates,''he says,''what folly is this?--Why do you agree to be vanquished by one another in a pretended argument?'' |
1497 | ''Surely you are not prepared to prove that?'' |
1497 | ''Sweet Sir,''we will say to him,''what think you of things esteemed noble and ignoble? |
1497 | ''Tell me, Socrates,''he says,''have you a nurse?'' |
1497 | ''Then how are we to describe the true?'' |
1497 | ''Then how is such an admission reconcileable with the doctrine that philosophers should be kings?'' |
1497 | ''Well, and what answer do you give?'' |
1497 | ''What appetites do you mean?'' |
1497 | ''What do you mean?'' |
1497 | ''What, then, shall a man profit, if he gain the whole world''and become more and more wicked? |
1497 | ''When a lively- minded ingenuous youth hears all this, what will be his conclusion? |
1497 | ''Who is that?'' |
1497 | ''Will they not think this a hardship?'' |
1497 | ''You do not mean to say that he will beat his father?'' |
1497 | ), having no reason in them, and yet to be set in authority over the highest matters? |
1497 | --How would you answer him? |
1497 | --What defence will you make for us, my good Sir, against any one who offers these objections? |
1497 | ... He proceeds: What did Simonides mean by this saying of his? |
1497 | A right noble thought; but do you suppose that we shall refrain from asking you what is this highest knowledge? |
1497 | A second and greater wave is rolling in-- community of wives and children; is this either expedient or possible? |
1497 | A state which is intermediate, and a sort of repose of the soul about either-- that is what you mean? |
1497 | Adeimantus added: Has no one told you of the torch- race on horseback in honour of the goddess which will take place in the evening? |
1497 | Admitting that women differ from men in capacity, do not men equally differ from one another? |
1497 | After this manner the democrat was generated out of the oligarch? |
1497 | Again the old question returns upon us: Is justice or injustice the more profitable? |
1497 | Again, as to the devastation of Hellenic territory or the burning of houses, what is to be the practice? |
1497 | Again, has he greater experience of the pleasures of honour, or the lover of honour of the pleasures of wisdom? |
1497 | Again, is not the passionate element wholly set on ruling and conquering and getting fame? |
1497 | Again, pleasure and pain are motions, and the absence of them is rest; but if so, how can the absence of either of them be the other? |
1497 | Again, when pleasure ceases, that sort of rest or cessation will be painful? |
1497 | All of whom will call one another citizens? |
1497 | All that would arise out of his ignorance of the true upper and middle and lower regions? |
1497 | Also they are utterly unjust, if we were right in our notion of justice? |
1497 | Am I not right? |
1497 | Am I not right? |
1497 | Am I not right? |
1497 | Am I not right? |
1497 | Am I not right? |
1497 | And O my friend, I said, surely the gods are just? |
1497 | And a man will be most likely to care about that which he loves? |
1497 | And a narrative it remains both in the speeches which the poet recites from time to time and in the intermediate passages? |
1497 | And again, if he is forgetful and retains nothing of what he learns, will he not be an empty vessel? |
1497 | And agreeably to this mode of thinking and speaking, were we not saying that they will have their pleasures and pains in common? |
1497 | And all arithmetic and calculation have to do with number? |
1497 | And also of the mental ones; his soul is to be full of spirit? |
1497 | And also to be within and between them? |
1497 | And an art requiring as much attention as shoemaking? |
1497 | And another consideration has just occurred to me: You will remember that our young men are to be warrior athletes? |
1497 | And any difference which arises among them will be regarded by them as discord only-- a quarrel among friends, which is not to be called a war? |
1497 | And anything which is infected by any of these evils is made evil, and at last wholly dissolves and dies? |
1497 | And are enemies also to receive what we owe to them? |
1497 | And are not their praises of tyranny alone a sufficient reason why we should exclude them from our State? |
1497 | And are our friends to be only the good, and our enemies to be the evil? |
1497 | And are suits decided on any other ground but that a man may neither take what is another''s, nor be deprived of what is his own? |
1497 | And are you going to run away before you have fairly taught or learned whether they are true or not? |
1497 | And are you stronger than all these? |
1497 | And as State is to State in virtue and happiness, so is man in relation to man? |
1497 | And as we are to have the best of guardians for our city, must they not be those who have most the character of guardians? |
1497 | And both pleasure and pain are motions of the soul, are they not? |
1497 | And both should be in harmony? |
1497 | And by contracts you mean partnerships? |
1497 | And can any one of those many things which are called by particular names be said to be this rather than not to be this? |
1497 | And can she or can she not fulfil her own ends when deprived of that excellence? |
1497 | And can that which does no evil be a cause of evil? |
1497 | And can the just by justice make men unjust, or speaking generally, can the good by virtue make them bad? |
1497 | And can there be anything better for the interests of the State than that the men and women of a State should be as good as possible? |
1497 | And can therefore neither be ignorance nor knowledge? |
1497 | And can you mention any pursuit of mankind in which the male sex has not all these gifts and qualities in a higher degree than the female? |
1497 | And democracy has her own good, of which the insatiable desire brings her to dissolution? |
1497 | And do I differ from you, he said, as to the importance of the enquiry? |
1497 | And do not good practices lead to virtue, and evil practices to vice? |
1497 | And do not the two styles, or the mixture of the two, comprehend all poetry, and every form of expression in words? |
1497 | And do the unjust appear to you to be wise and good? |
1497 | And do they not educate to perfection young and old, men and women alike, and fashion them after their own hearts? |
1497 | And do they not share? |
1497 | And do we know what we opine? |
1497 | And do you also agree, I said, in describing the dialectician as one who attains a conception of the essence of each thing? |
1497 | And do you breed from them all indifferently, or do you take care to breed from the best only? |
1497 | And do you consider truth to be akin to proportion or to disproportion? |
1497 | And do you imagine, I said, that I am such a madman as to try and cheat, Thrasymachus? |
1497 | And do you not know, I said, that all mere opinions are bad, and the best of them blind? |
1497 | And do you remember the word of caution which preceded the discussion of them? |
1497 | And do you suppose that I ask these questions with any design of injuring you in the argument? |
1497 | And do you take the oldest or the youngest, or only those of ripe age? |
1497 | And do you wish to behold what is blind and crooked and base, when others will tell you of brightness and beauty? |
1497 | And does not the analogy apply still more to the State? |
1497 | And does not the latter-- I mean the rebellious principle-- furnish a great variety of materials for imitation? |
1497 | And does not the same hold also of the ridiculous? |
1497 | And does not the same principle hold in the sciences? |
1497 | And does not tyranny spring from democracy in the same manner as democracy from oligarchy-- I mean, after a sort? |
1497 | And does the essence of the invariable partake of knowledge in the same degree as of essence? |
1497 | And dogs are deteriorated in the good qualities of dogs, and not of horses? |
1497 | And each art gives us a particular good and not merely a general one-- medicine, for example, gives us health; navigation, safety at sea, and so on? |
1497 | And each of them is such as his like is? |
1497 | And even if injustice be found in two only, will they not quarrel and fight, and become enemies to one another and to the just? |
1497 | And even to this are there not exceptions? |
1497 | And everything else on the style? |
1497 | And food and wisdom are the corresponding satisfactions of either? |
1497 | And from being a keeper of the law he is converted into a breaker of it? |
1497 | And good counsel is clearly a kind of knowledge, for not by ignorance, but by knowledge, do men counsel well? |
1497 | And has not the body itself less of truth and essence than the soul? |
1497 | And has not the eye an excellence? |
1497 | And has not the soul an excellence also? |
1497 | And have we not already condemned that State in which the same persons are warriors as well as shopkeepers? |
1497 | And he is good in as far as he is wise, and bad in as far as he is foolish? |
1497 | And he is the best guard of a camp who is best able to steal a march upon the enemy? |
1497 | And he is the only one who has wisdom as well as experience? |
1497 | And he is to be deemed courageous whose spirit retains in pleasure and in pain the commands of reason about what he ought or ought not to fear? |
1497 | And he who is most skilful in preventing or escaping from a disease is best able to create one? |
1497 | And he who is not on a voyage has no need of a pilot? |
1497 | And he who lives well is blessed and happy, and he who lives ill the reverse of happy? |
1497 | And here, Glaucon, I should like to ask( as I know that you are a breeder of birds and animals), Do you not take the greatest care in the mating? |
1497 | And his friends and fellow- citizens will want to use him as he gets older for their own purposes? |
1497 | And how am I to convince you, he said, if you are not already convinced by what I have just said; what more can I do for you? |
1497 | And how am I to do so? |
1497 | And how are they to be learned without education? |
1497 | And how can one who is thus circumstanced ever become a philosopher? |
1497 | And how can we rightly answer that question? |
1497 | And how does such an one live? |
1497 | And how does the son come into being? |
1497 | And how is the error to be corrected? |
1497 | And how long is this stage of their lives to last? |
1497 | And how will they proceed? |
1497 | And how would he regard the attempt to gain an advantage over the unjust; would that be considered by him as just or unjust? |
1497 | And if care was not taken in the breeding, your dogs and birds would greatly deteriorate? |
1497 | And if merchandise is to be carried over the sea, skilful sailors will also be needed, and in considerable numbers? |
1497 | And if our youth are to do their work in life, must they not make these graces and harmonies their perpetual aim? |
1497 | And if that is true, what sort of general must he have been? |
1497 | And if the old man and woman fight for their own, what then, my friend? |
1497 | And if the world perceives that what we are saying about him is the truth, will they be angry with philosophy? |
1497 | And if there be any State in which rulers and subjects will be agreed as to the question who are to rule, that again will be our State? |
1497 | And if they are both known to them, one must be the friend and the other the enemy of the gods, as we admitted from the beginning? |
1497 | And if they are to be what we were describing, is there not another quality which they should also possess? |
1497 | And if they turn out to be two, is not each of them one and different? |
1497 | And if they were able to converse with one another, would they not suppose that they were naming what was actually before them? |
1497 | And if we only have a guardian who has this knowledge our State will be perfectly ordered? |
1497 | And ignorance and folly are inanitions of the soul? |
1497 | And in like manner does the touch adequately perceive the qualities of thickness or thinness, of softness or hardness? |
1497 | And in oligarchical States, from the general spread of carelessness and extravagance, men of good family have often been reduced to beggary? |
1497 | And in our State what other name besides that of citizens do the people give the rulers? |
1497 | And in our opinion the guardians ought to have both these qualities? |
1497 | And in such a case what is one to say? |
1497 | And in that case they will be right in doing good to the evil and evil to the good? |
1497 | And in that interval there has now been discovered something which we call opinion? |
1497 | And in the first place, he will honour studies which impress these qualities on his soul and will disregard others? |
1497 | And in the laying of bricks and stones is the just man a more useful or better partner than the builder? |
1497 | And in what sort of actions or with a view to what result is the just man most able to do harm to his enemy and good to his friend? |
1497 | And inasmuch as they are two, each of them is one? |
1497 | And is he likely to be brave who has no spirit, whether horse or dog or any other animal? |
1497 | And is he not truly good? |
1497 | And is justice dimmer in the individual, and is her form different, or is she the same which we found her to be in the State? |
1497 | And is not a State larger than an individual? |
1497 | And is not a similar method to be pursued about the virtues, which are also four in number? |
1497 | And is not life to be reckoned among the ends of the soul? |
1497 | And is not that farthest from reason which is at the greatest distance from law and order? |
1497 | And is not the end of the soul happiness, and justice the excellence of the soul by which happiness is attained? |
1497 | And is not the love of learning the love of wisdom, which is philosophy? |
1497 | And is not the reason of this that the several principles, whether in the state or in the individual, do their own business? |
1497 | And is not the unjust like the wise and good and the just unlike them? |
1497 | And is not their humanity to the condemned in some cases quite charming? |
1497 | And is not this involuntary deprivation caused either by theft, or force, or enchantment? |
1497 | And is not this the reason why of old love has been called a tyrant? |
1497 | And is opinion also a faculty? |
1497 | And is our theory a worse theory because we are unable to prove the possibility of a city being ordered in the manner described? |
1497 | And is the art of war one of those arts in which she can or can not share? |
1497 | And is the city which is under a tyrant rich or poor? |
1497 | And is the satisfaction derived from that which has less or from that which has more existence the truer? |
1497 | And is there any greater or keener pleasure than that of sensual love? |
1497 | And is there any man in whom you will find more of this sort of misery than in the tyrannical man, who is in a fury of passions and desires? |
1497 | And is there anything more akin to wisdom than truth? |
1497 | And is this confined to the sight only, or does it extend to the hearing also, relating in fact to what we term poetry? |
1497 | And it has this particular quality because it has an object of a particular kind; and this is true of the other arts and sciences? |
1497 | And just actions cause justice, and unjust actions cause injustice? |
1497 | And literature may be either true or false? |
1497 | And living in this way we shall have much greater need of physicians than before? |
1497 | And luxury and softness are blamed, because they relax and weaken this same creature, and make a coward of him? |
1497 | And may not the many which are doubles be also halves?--doubles, that is, of one thing, and halves of another? |
1497 | And may we not rightly call such men treacherous? |
1497 | And may we not say of the philosopher that he is a lover, not of a part of wisdom only, but of the whole? |
1497 | And may we not say that the mind of the one who knows has knowledge, and that the mind of the other, who opines only, has opinion? |
1497 | And may we not say the same of all things? |
1497 | And may we not say, Adeimantus, that the most gifted minds, when they are ill- educated, become pre- eminently bad? |
1497 | And men are blamed for pride and bad temper when the lion and serpent element in them disproportionately grows and gains strength? |
1497 | And might a man be thirsty, and yet unwilling to drink? |
1497 | And must not an animal be a lover of learning who determines what he likes and dislikes by the test of knowledge and ignorance? |
1497 | And must not such a State and such a man be always full of fear? |
1497 | And must not the like happen with the spirited or passionate element of the soul? |
1497 | And must not the soul be perplexed at this intimation which the sense gives of a hard which is also soft? |
1497 | And must not the tyrannical man be like the tyrannical State, and the democratical man like the democratical State; and the same of the others? |
1497 | And must not we swim and try to reach the shore: we will hope that Arion''s dolphin or some other miraculous help may save us? |
1497 | And narration may be either simple narration, or imitation, or a union of the two? |
1497 | And next, how does he live? |
1497 | And next, shall we enquire whether the kindred science also concerns us? |
1497 | And no good thing is hurtful? |
1497 | And not- being is not one thing but, properly speaking, nothing? |
1497 | And now tell me, I conjure you, has not imitation been shown by us to be concerned with that which is thrice removed from the truth? |
1497 | And now what is their manner of life, and what sort of a government have they? |
1497 | And now what remains of the work of legislation? |
1497 | And now why do you not praise me? |
1497 | And now, Adeimantus, is our State matured and perfected? |
1497 | And of individuals who consort with the mob and seek to please them? |
1497 | And of the objects which are being carried in like manner they would only see the shadows? |
1497 | And of the pleasures of love, and all other pleasures, the same holds good? |
1497 | And of the unjust may not the opposite be supposed? |
1497 | And of truth in the same degree? |
1497 | And once more, the inharmonious and unseemly nature can only tend to disproportion? |
1497 | And one feature they will erase, and another they will put in, until they have made the ways of men, as far as possible, agreeable to the ways of God? |
1497 | And one woman has a turn for gymnastic and military exercises, and another is unwarlike and hates gymnastics? |
1497 | And one woman is a philosopher, and another is an enemy of philosophy; one has spirit, and another is without spirit? |
1497 | And opinion is to have an opinion? |
1497 | And ought not the same natures to have the same pursuits? |
1497 | And our guardian is both warrior and philosopher? |
1497 | And reasoning is peculiarly his instrument? |
1497 | And shall I add,''whether seen or unseen by gods and men''? |
1497 | And shall we proceed to get rid of the weepings and wailings of famous men? |
1497 | And shall we receive into our State all the three styles, or one only of the two unmixed styles? |
1497 | And should an immortal being seriously think of this little space rather than of the whole? |
1497 | And should we not enquire what sort of knowledge has the power of effecting such a change? |
1497 | And so let us have a final trial and proclamation; need we hire a herald, or shall I proclaim the result? |
1497 | And so of all other things;--justice is useful when they are useless, and useless when they are useful? |
1497 | And so of the other senses; do they give perfect intimations of such matters? |
1497 | And so they will be drawn by a necessity of their natures to have intercourse with each other-- necessity is not too strong a word, I think? |
1497 | And so tyranny naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme form of liberty? |
1497 | And still there arises another question: Are friends to be interpreted as real or seeming; enemies as real or seeming? |
1497 | And such a pilot and ruler will provide and prescribe for the interest of the sailor who is under him, and not for his own or the ruler''s interest? |
1497 | And suppose injustice abiding in a single person, would your wisdom say that she loses or that she retains her natural power? |
1497 | And suppose we make astronomy the third-- what do you say? |
1497 | And surely, he said, this occurs notably in the case of one; for we see the same thing to be both one and infinite in multitude? |
1497 | And that human virtue is justice? |
1497 | And that others should approve, of what we approve, is no miracle or impossibility? |
1497 | And that to which an end is appointed has also an excellence? |
1497 | And that which hurts not does no evil? |
1497 | And that which is not hurtful hurts not? |
1497 | And that which is opposed to them is one of the inferior principles of the soul? |
1497 | And the State which is enslaved under a tyrant is utterly incapable of acting voluntarily? |
1497 | And the anticipations of future pleasures and pains are of a like nature? |
1497 | And the avaricious, I said, is the oligarchical youth? |
1497 | And the better part of the soul is likely to be that which trusts to measure and calculation? |
1497 | And the citizens being thus agreed among themselves, in which class will temperance be found-- in the rulers or in the subjects? |
1497 | And the country which was enough to support the original inhabitants will be too small now, and not enough? |
1497 | And the ear has an end and an excellence also? |
1497 | And the end or use of a horse or of anything would be that which could not be accomplished, or not so well accomplished, by any other thing? |
1497 | And the fairest is also the loveliest? |
1497 | And the forbidding principle is derived from reason, and that which bids and attracts proceeds from passion and disease? |
1497 | And the friend he regards and describes as one in whom he has an interest, and the other as a stranger in whom he has no interest? |
1497 | And the good is advantageous? |
1497 | And the government is the ruling power in each state? |
1497 | And the greater the interval which separates them from philosophy and reason, the more strange and illusive will be the pleasure? |
1497 | And the greatest degree of evil- doing to one''s own city would be termed by you injustice? |
1497 | And the harmonious soul is both temperate and courageous? |
1497 | And the higher the duties of the guardian, I said, the more time, and skill, and art, and application will be needed by him? |
1497 | And the individual will be acknowledged by us to be just in the same way in which the State is just? |
1497 | And the inharmonious is cowardly and boorish? |
1497 | And the insatiable desire of wealth and the neglect of all other things for the sake of money- getting was also the ruin of oligarchy? |
1497 | And the interest of any art is the perfection of it-- this and nothing else? |
1497 | And the just is the good? |
1497 | And the kinds of knowledge in a State are many and diverse? |
1497 | And the knowing is wise? |
1497 | And the laws which they make must be obeyed by their subjects,--and that is what you call justice? |
1497 | And the lover of honour-- what will be his opinion? |
1497 | And the lustful and tyrannical desires are, as we saw, at the greatest distance? |
1497 | And the man who has the spirit of harmony will be most in love with the loveliest; but he will not love him who is of an inharmonious soul? |
1497 | And the melody and rhythm will depend upon the words? |
1497 | And the more detestable his actions are to the citizens the more satellites and the greater devotion in them will he require? |
1497 | And the more hated he is, the more he will require trusty guards; but how will he obtain them? |
1497 | And the much greater to the much less? |
1497 | And the new government which thus arises will be of a form intermediate between oligarchy and aristocracy? |
1497 | And the oligarch is third from the royal; since we count as one royal and aristocratical? |
1497 | And the painter too is, as I conceive, just such another-- a creator of appearances, is he not? |
1497 | And the persons whose property is taken from them are compelled to defend themselves before the people as they best can? |
1497 | And the pilot likewise, in the strict sense of the term, is a ruler of sailors and not a mere sailor? |
1497 | And the pilot-- that is to say, the true pilot-- is he a captain of sailors or a mere sailor? |
1497 | And the possibility has been acknowledged? |
1497 | And the power which the eye possesses is a sort of effluence which is dispensed from the sun? |
1497 | And the reason is that each part of him is doing its own business, whether in ruling or being ruled? |
1497 | And the reason of this, over and above the general constitution of the State, will be that the guardians will have a community of women and children? |
1497 | And the reason why the good are useless has now been explained? |
1497 | And the result will be that he becomes a worse potter? |
1497 | And the royal and orderly desires are nearest? |
1497 | And the same is true of all other things; they have each of them an end and a special excellence? |
1497 | And the same observation will apply to all other things? |
1497 | And the same of horses and animals in general? |
1497 | And the sometime greater to the sometime less, and the greater that is to be to the less that is to be? |
1497 | And the tragic poet is an imitator, and therefore, like all other imitators, he is thrice removed from the king and from the truth? |
1497 | And the tyrannical soul must be always poor and insatiable? |
1497 | And the unjust is good and wise, and the just is neither? |
1497 | And the unjust man will strive and struggle to obtain more than the unjust man or action, in order that he may have more than all? |
1497 | And the virtue which enters into this competition is justice? |
1497 | And the wise is good? |
1497 | And the work of the painter is a third? |
1497 | And the worker in leather and brass will make them? |
1497 | And the young should be trained in both kinds, and we begin with the false? |
1497 | And then, although they may have no desire of change, the others charge them with plotting against the people and being friends of oligarchy? |
1497 | And there are three kinds of pleasure, which are their several objects? |
1497 | And there is a neutral state which is neither pleasure nor pain? |
1497 | And therefore he will not sorrow for his departed friend as though he had suffered anything terrible? |
1497 | And therefore philosophers must inevitably fall under the censure of the world? |
1497 | And therefore the cause of well- being? |
1497 | And therefore they are likely to do harm to our young men-- you would agree with me there? |
1497 | And therefore to acknowledge that bad and good are the same? |
1497 | And they appear to lead the mind towards truth? |
1497 | And they will place them under the command of experienced veterans who will be their leaders and teachers? |
1497 | And they will take them on the safe expeditions and be cautious about the dangerous ones? |
1497 | And things great and small, heavy and light, as they are termed, will not be denoted by these any more than by the opposite names? |
1497 | And this assimilation of himself to another, either by the use of voice or gesture, is the imitation of the person whose character he assumes? |
1497 | And this is because injustice creates divisions and hatreds and fighting, and justice imparts harmony and friendship; is not that true, Thrasymachus? |
1497 | And this is equally true of imitation; no one man can imitate many things as well as he would imitate a single one? |
1497 | And this is what the arts of music and gymnastic, when present in such manner as we have described, will accomplish? |
1497 | And this, surely, must be the work of the calculating and rational principle in the soul? |
1497 | And those who govern ought not to be lovers of the task? |
1497 | And to this end they ought to be wise and efficient, and to have a special care of the State? |
1497 | And to which class do unity and number belong? |
1497 | And was I not right, Adeimantus? |
1497 | And was I not right? |
1497 | And we have admitted that justice is the excellence of the soul, and injustice the defect of the soul? |
1497 | And we have admitted, I said, that the good of each art is specially confined to the art? |
1497 | And what are these? |
1497 | And what do the Muses say next? |
1497 | And what do the rulers call one another in other States? |
1497 | And what do the rulers call the people? |
1497 | And what do they call them in other States? |
1497 | And what do they receive of men? |
1497 | And what do you say of lovers of wine? |
1497 | And what do you say to his receiving the right hand of fellowship? |
1497 | And what do you think of a second principle? |
1497 | And what does the judge affirm to be the life which is next, and the pleasure which is next? |
1497 | And what due or proper thing is given by cookery, and to what? |
1497 | And what happens? |
1497 | And what in ours? |
1497 | And what is that which justice gives, and to whom? |
1497 | And what is the faculty in man to which imitation is addressed? |
1497 | And what is the name which the city derives from the possession of this sort of knowledge? |
1497 | And what is the next question? |
1497 | And what is the organ with which we see the visible things? |
1497 | And what is the prime of life? |
1497 | And what is this knowledge, and among whom is it found? |
1497 | And what is your view about them? |
1497 | And what manner of government do you term oligarchy? |
1497 | And what manner of man answers to such a State? |
1497 | And what may that be? |
1497 | And what of passion, or spirit? |
1497 | And what of the ignorant? |
1497 | And what of the maker of the bed? |
1497 | And what of the unjust-- does he claim to have more than the just man and to do more than is just? |
1497 | And what shall be their education? |
1497 | And what shall we say about men? |
1497 | And what shall we say of men? |
1497 | And what shall we say of the carpenter-- is not he also the maker of the bed? |
1497 | And what similar use or power of acquisition has justice in time of peace? |
1497 | And what then would you say? |
1497 | And what training will draw the soul upwards? |
1497 | And what would you say of the physician? |
1497 | And when all the world is telling a man that he is six feet high, and he has no measure, how can he believe anything else? |
1497 | And when persons are suffering from acute pain, you must have heard them say that there is nothing pleasanter than to get rid of their pain? |
1497 | And when these fail? |
1497 | And when they meet in private will not people be saying to one another''Our warriors are not good for much''? |
1497 | And when truth is the captain, we can not suspect any evil of the band which he leads? |
1497 | And when you see the same evils in the tyrannical man, what do you say of him? |
1497 | And when you speak of music, do you include literature or not? |
1497 | And when you want to buy a ship, the shipwright or the pilot would be better? |
1497 | And where do you find them? |
1497 | And where freedom is, the individual is clearly able to order for himself his own life as he pleases? |
1497 | And which are the harmonies expressive of sorrow? |
1497 | And which are the soft or drinking harmonies? |
1497 | And which are these two sorts? |
1497 | And which is wise and which is foolish? |
1497 | And which method do I understand you to prefer? |
1497 | And which of the three has the truest knowledge and the widest experience? |
1497 | And which sort of life, Glaucon, do you prefer? |
1497 | And which, I said, of the gods in heaven would you say was the lord of this element? |
1497 | And whichever of these qualities we find in the State, the one which is not found will be the residue? |
1497 | And who are the devoted band, and where will he procure them? |
1497 | And who is best able to do good to his friends and evil to his enemies in time of sickness? |
1497 | And why are mean employments and manual arts a reproach? |
1497 | And why, sillybillies, do you knock under to one another? |
1497 | And will any one say that he is not a miserable caitiff who remorselessly sells his own divine being to that which is most godless and detestable? |
1497 | And will he sell his own fairer and diviner part without any compunction to the most godless and foul? |
1497 | And will he then change himself for the better and fairer, or for the worse and more unsightly? |
1497 | And will not a true astronomer have the same feeling when he looks at the movements of the stars? |
1497 | And will not he who has been shown to be the wickedest, be also the most miserable? |
1497 | And will not men who are injured be deteriorated in that which is the proper virtue of man? |
1497 | And will not the bravest and wisest soul be least confused or deranged by any external influence? |
1497 | And will not the city, which you are founding, be an Hellenic city? |
1497 | And will not the same condition be best for our citizens? |
1497 | And will not the words and the character of the style depend on the temper of the soul? |
1497 | And will not their wives be the best women? |
1497 | And will the blindness and crookedness of opinion content you when you might have the light and certainty of science? |
1497 | And will the habit of body of our ordinary athletes be suited to them? |
1497 | And will the love of a lie be any part of a philosopher''s nature? |
1497 | And will there be in our city more of these true guardians or more smiths? |
1497 | And will they be a class which is rarely found? |
1497 | And will they not be lovers of Hellas, and think of Hellas as their own land, and share in the common temples? |
1497 | And will you be so very good as to answer one more question? |
1497 | And will you have a work better done when the workman has many occupations, or when he has only one? |
1497 | And with the hearing, I said, we hear, and with the other senses perceive the other objects of sense? |
1497 | And would he try to go beyond just action? |
1497 | And would not a really good education furnish the best safeguard? |
1497 | And would you call justice vice? |
1497 | And would you have the future rulers of your ideal State intelligent beings, or stupid as posts? |
1497 | And would you say that the soul of such an one is the soul of a freeman, or of a slave? |
1497 | And yet not so well as with a pruning- hook made for the purpose? |
1497 | And yet there is a sense in which the painter also creates a bed? |
1497 | And yet you were acknowledging a little while ago that knowledge is not the same as opinion? |
1497 | And yet, as you see, there are freemen as well as masters in such a State? |
1497 | And you also said that the just will not go beyond his like but his unlike? |
1497 | And you are aware too that the latter can not explain what they mean by knowledge, but are obliged after all to say knowledge of the good? |
1497 | And you know that a man who is deranged and not right in his mind, will fancy that he is able to rule, not only over men, but also over the gods? |
1497 | And you may further imagine that his instructor is pointing to the objects as they pass and requiring him to name them,--will he not be perplexed? |
1497 | And you placed astronomy next, and then you made a step backward? |
1497 | And you would say the same of the conception of the good? |
1497 | And you would say the same sort of thing of the physician? |
1497 | And, conversely, that which has less of truth will also have less of essence? |
1497 | Another question has not been answered: Is the just or the unjust the happier? |
1497 | Another question is, Which of existing states is suited to her? |
1497 | Any affinity to wantonness and intemperance? |
1497 | Any more than heat can produce cold? |
1497 | Any more than they can be rhapsodists and actors at once? |
1497 | Are not necessary pleasures those of which we can not get rid, and of which the satisfaction is a benefit to us? |
1497 | Are not the chief elements of temperance, speaking generally, obedience to commanders and self- control in sensual pleasures? |
1497 | Are not the public who say these things the greatest of all Sophists? |
1497 | Are not the tragic poets wise who magnify and exalt the tyrant, and say that he is wise by association with the wise? |
1497 | Are not these functions proper to the soul, and can they rightly be assigned to any other? |
1497 | Are the lovers of sights and sounds, who let out their ears to every chorus at the Dionysiac festivals, to be called philosophers?'' |
1497 | Are they two or one, and is either of them the cause of the other? |
1497 | Are we not right in saying that the love of knowledge, no less than riches, may divert him? |
1497 | Are you not aware, I said, that the soul of man is immortal and imperishable? |
1497 | Are you satisfied then that the quality which makes such men and such states is justice, or do you hope to discover some other? |
1497 | As being the same with knowledge, or another faculty? |
1497 | As they are or as they appear? |
1497 | At any rate you can tell that a song or ode has three parts-- the words, the melody, and the rhythm; that degree of knowledge I may presuppose? |
1497 | At what age? |
1497 | Because I want to know in which of the three classes you would place justice? |
1497 | Because it has a particular quality which no other has? |
1497 | Beds, then, are of three kinds, and there are three artists who superintend them: God, the maker of the bed, and the painter? |
1497 | Beginning with the State, I replied, would you say that a city which is governed by a tyrant is free or enslaved? |
1497 | Being is the sphere or subject- matter of knowledge, and knowledge is to know the nature of being? |
1497 | But again, will they tell us that such a nature, placed under favourable circumstances, will not be perfectly good and wise if any ever was? |
1497 | But although the gods are themselves unchangeable, still by witchcraft and deception they may make us think that they appear in various forms? |
1497 | But are not these spirited natures apt to be savage with one another, and with everybody else? |
1497 | But are the rulers of states absolutely infallible, or are they sometimes liable to err? |
1497 | But are they really three or one? |
1497 | But can any of these reasons apply to God? |
1497 | But can that which is neither become both? |
1497 | But can that which is neither become both? |
1497 | But can the musician by his art make men unmusical? |
1497 | But can you persuade us, if we refuse to listen to you? |
1497 | But can you tell me of any other suitable study? |
1497 | But can you use different animals for the same purpose, unless they are bred and fed in the same way? |
1497 | But did we not say, Thrasymachus, that the unjust goes beyond both his like and unlike? |
1497 | But do you imagine that men who are unable to give and take a reason will have the knowledge which we require of them? |
1497 | But do you know whom I think good? |
1497 | But do you mean to say that this is not the opinion of the multitude? |
1497 | But do you not admire their cleverness? |
1497 | But do you not admire, I said, the coolness and dexterity of these ready ministers of political corruption? |
1497 | But do you not see that there is a sense in which you could do the same? |
1497 | But do you observe the reason of this? |
1497 | But do you see, he rejoined, how many we are? |
1497 | But does he therefore confer no benefit when he works for nothing? |
1497 | But does the painter know the right form of the bit and reins? |
1497 | But have we not here fallen into a contradiction? |
1497 | But have you remarked that sight is by far the most costly and complex piece of workmanship which the artificer of the senses ever contrived? |
1497 | But he may have friends who are senseless or mad? |
1497 | But he would claim to exceed the non- musician? |
1497 | But he would wish to go beyond the non- physician? |
1497 | But how did timocracy arise out of the perfect State? |
1497 | But how is the image applicable to the disciples of philosophy? |
1497 | But how will they draw out the plan of which you are speaking? |
1497 | But how will they know who are fathers and daughters, and so on? |
1497 | But if he were taken back again he would imagine, and truly imagine, that he was descending? |
1497 | But if so, the tyrant will live most unpleasantly, and the king most pleasantly? |
1497 | But if so, the unjust will be the enemy of the gods, and the just will be their friend? |
1497 | But if the process by which we are supposed to arrive at the idea of good be really imaginary, may not the idea itself be also a mere abstraction? |
1497 | But if they abstained from injuring one another, then they might act together better? |
1497 | But if they are to be courageous, must they not learn other lessons besides these, and lessons of such a kind as will take away the fear of death? |
1497 | But in what way good or harm? |
1497 | But is a man in harmony with himself when he is the subject of these conflicting influences? |
1497 | But is not this unjust? |
1497 | But is not war an art? |
1497 | But is opinion to be sought without and beyond either of them, in a greater clearness than knowledge, or in a greater darkness than ignorance? |
1497 | But is passion a third principle, or akin to desire? |
1497 | But is such a community possible?--as among the animals, so also among men; and if possible, in what way possible? |
1497 | But is the just man or the skilful player a more useful and better partner at a game of draughts? |
1497 | But is there no difference between men and women? |
1497 | But is there not another name which people give to their rulers in other States? |
1497 | But is this equally true of the greatness and smallness of the fingers? |
1497 | But let me ask you another question: Has excess of pleasure any affinity to temperance? |
1497 | But may he not change and transform himself? |
1497 | But may not the stimulus which love has given to fancy be some day exhausted? |
1497 | But next, what shall we say of their food; for the men are in training for the great contest of all-- are they not? |
1497 | But ought the just to injure any one at all? |
1497 | But ought we to attempt to construct one? |
1497 | But ought we to render evil for evil at all, when to do so will only make men more evil? |
1497 | But shall we be right in getting rid of them? |
1497 | But should not life rest on the moral rather than upon the physical? |
1497 | But suppose that he were to retort,''Thrasymachus, what do you mean? |
1497 | But surely God and the things of God are in every way perfect? |
1497 | But surely, Thrasymachus, the arts are the superiors and rulers of their own subjects? |
1497 | But that which is neither was just now shown to be rest and not motion, and in a mean between them? |
1497 | But the condiments are only necessary in so far as they are good for health? |
1497 | But the good are just and would not do an injustice? |
1497 | But the hero who has distinguished himself, what shall be done to him? |
1497 | But the philosopher will still be justified in asking,''How may the heavenly gift of poesy be devoted to the good of mankind?'' |
1497 | But the soul which can not be destroyed by an evil, whether inherent or external, must exist for ever, and if existing for ever, must be immortal? |
1497 | But those who see the absolute and eternal and immutable may be said to know, and not to have opinion only? |
1497 | But we should like to ask him a question: Does he who has knowledge know something or nothing? |
1497 | But what branch of knowledge is there, my dear Glaucon, which is of the desired nature; since all the useful arts were reckoned mean by us? |
1497 | But what can show a more disgraceful state of education than to have to go abroad for justice because you have none of your own at home? |
1497 | But what do you mean by the highest of all knowledge? |
1497 | But what do you say of music, which also entered to a certain extent into our former scheme? |
1497 | But what do you say to flute- makers and flute- players? |
1497 | But what if I give you an answer about justice other and better, he said, than any of these? |
1497 | But what if there are no gods? |
1497 | But what is the next step? |
1497 | But what of the world below? |
1497 | But what ought to be their course? |
1497 | But what shall be done to the hero? |
1497 | But what shall their education be? |
1497 | But what will be the process of delineation?'' |
1497 | But what would you have, Glaucon? |
1497 | But when a man is well, my dear Polemarchus, there is no need of a physician? |
1497 | But when is this fault committed? |
1497 | But when they are directed towards objects on which the sun shines, they see clearly and there is sight in them? |
1497 | But whence came division? |
1497 | But where are the two? |
1497 | But where, amid all this, is justice? |
1497 | But which is the happier? |
1497 | But which stories do you mean, he said; and what fault do you find with them? |
1497 | But who can doubt that philosophers should be chosen, if they have the other qualities which are required in a ruler? |
1497 | But why do you ask? |
1497 | But why do you ask? |
1497 | But why should we dispute about names when we have realities of such importance to consider? |
1497 | But why? |
1497 | But will he have no sorrow, or shall we say that although he can not help sorrowing, he will moderate his sorrow? |
1497 | But will he not desire to get them on the spot? |
1497 | But will the imitator have either? |
1497 | But will you let me assume, without reciting them, that these things are true? |
1497 | But would any of your guardians think or speak of any other guardian as a stranger? |
1497 | But would you call the painter a creator and maker? |
1497 | But you can cut off a vine- branch with a dagger or with a chisel, and in many other ways? |
1497 | But you see that without the addition of some other nature there is no seeing or being seen? |
1497 | But, if Homer never did any public service, was he privately a guide or teacher of any? |
1497 | By heaven, would not such an one be a rare educator? |
1497 | Can I say what I do not know? |
1497 | Can a man help imitating that with which he holds reverential converse? |
1497 | Can any man be courageous who has the fear of death in him? |
1497 | Can any other origin of a State be imagined? |
1497 | Can any reality come up to the idea? |
1497 | Can he have an opinion which is an opinion about nothing? |
1497 | Can justice produce injustice any more than the art of horsemanship can make bad horsemen, or heat produce cold? |
1497 | Can sight adequately perceive them? |
1497 | Can the god of Jealousy himself find any fault with such an assemblage of good qualities? |
1497 | Can the same nature be a lover of wisdom and a lover of falsehood? |
1497 | Can there be any greater evil than discord and distraction and plurality where unity ought to reign? |
1497 | Can they have a better place than between being and not- being? |
1497 | Can we any longer doubt, then, that the miser and money- maker answers to the oligarchical State? |
1497 | Can we deny that a warrior should have a knowledge of arithmetic? |
1497 | Can we suppose that he is ignorant of antiquity, and therefore has recourse to invention? |
1497 | Can you tell me what imitation is? |
1497 | Can you tell me whence I derive this inference? |
1497 | Capital, I said; but let me ask you once more: Shall they be a family in name only; or shall they in all their actions be true to the name? |
1497 | Certainly, the same principle holds; but why does this involve any particular skill? |
1497 | Deteriorated, that is to say, in the good qualities of horses, not of dogs? |
1497 | Did he mean that I was to give back arms to a madman? |
1497 | Did this never strike you as curious? |
1497 | Did you ever hear any of them which were not? |
1497 | Did you hear all the advantages of the unjust which Thrasymachus was rehearsing? |
1497 | Did you never hear it? |
1497 | Did you never observe how the mind of a clever rogue peers out of his eyes, and the more clearly he sees, the more evil he does? |
1497 | Did you never observe in the arts how the potters''boys look on and help, long before they touch the wheel? |
1497 | Do I take you with me? |
1497 | Do they by attaching to the soul and inhering in her at last bring her to death, and so separate her from the body? |
1497 | Do we admit the existence of opinion? |
1497 | Do you agree? |
1497 | Do you know of any other? |
1497 | Do you know where you will have to look if you want to discover his rogueries? |
1497 | Do you know, I said, that governments vary as the dispositions of men vary, and that there must be as many of the one as there are of the other? |
1497 | Do you mean that there is no such maker or creator, or that in one sense there might be a maker of all these things but in another not? |
1497 | Do you mean, for example, that he who is mistaken about the sick is a physician in that he is mistaken? |
1497 | Do you not know that all this is but the prelude to the actual strain which we have to learn? |
1497 | Do you not know that the soul is immortal? |
1497 | Do you not know, I said, that the true lie, if such an expression may be allowed, is hated of gods and men? |
1497 | Do you not remark, I said, how great is the evil which dialectic has introduced? |
1497 | Do you not see them doing the same? |
1497 | Do you observe that we were not far wrong in our guess that temperance was a sort of harmony? |
1497 | Do you remember? |
1497 | Do you see that there is a way in which you could make them all yourself? |
1497 | Do you suppose that I call him who is mistaken the stronger at the time when he is mistaken? |
1497 | Do you think it right that Hellenes should enslave Hellenic States, or allow others to enslave them, if they can help? |
1497 | Do you think that the possession of all other things is of any value if we do not possess the good? |
1497 | Do you think that there is anything so very unnatural or inexcusable in their case? |
1497 | Does he not call the other pleasures necessary, under the idea that if there were no necessity for them, he would rather not have them? |
1497 | Does not like always attract like? |
1497 | Does not the practice of despoiling an enemy afford an excuse for not facing the battle? |
1497 | Does not the timocratical man change into the oligarchical on this wise? |
1497 | Does that look well? |
1497 | Does the injustice or other evil which exists in the soul waste and consume her? |
1497 | Does the just man try to gain any advantage over the just? |
1497 | Each of them, I said, is such as his like is? |
1497 | Enough of gods and heroes;--what shall we say about men? |
1497 | Enough, my friend; but what is enough while anything remains wanting? |
1497 | Ethics),''Whether the virtues are one or many?'' |
1497 | Every act does something to somebody; and following this analogy, Socrates asks, What is this due and proper thing which justice does, and to whom? |
1497 | Except a city?--or would you include a city? |
1497 | First of all, in regard to slavery? |
1497 | First you began with a geometry of plane surfaces? |
1497 | First, then, they resemble one another in the value which they set upon wealth? |
1497 | For all these things are only the prelude, and you surely do not suppose that a mere mathematician is also a dialectician? |
1497 | For concerning political measures, we chiefly ask: How will they affect the happiness of mankind? |
1497 | For example, I said, can the same thing be at rest and in motion at the same time in the same part? |
1497 | For if Agamemnon could not count his feet( and without number how could he?) |
1497 | For what purpose do you conceive that we have come here, said Thrasymachus,--to look for gold, or to hear discourse? |
1497 | For which the art has to consider and provide? |
1497 | For you surely would not regard the skilled mathematician as a dialectician? |
1497 | Further, I said, has not a drunken man also the spirit of a tyrant? |
1497 | Further, the very faculty which is the instrument of judgment is not possessed by the covetous or ambitious man, but only by the philosopher? |
1497 | Further, there can be no doubt that a work is spoilt when not done at the right time? |
1497 | God forbid, I replied; but may I ask you to consider the image in another point of view? |
1497 | Good, I said; then you call him who is third in the descent from nature an imitator? |
1497 | Has he not, I said, an occupation; and what profit would there be in his life if he were deprived of his occupation? |
1497 | Has not nature scattered all the qualities which our citizens require indifferently up and down among the two sexes? |
1497 | Has not that been admitted? |
1497 | Has not the intemperate been censured of old, because in him the huge multiform monster is allowed to be too much at large? |
1497 | Have I clearly explained the class which I mean? |
1497 | Have we not here a picture of his way of life? |
1497 | Having effected this, they will proceed to trace an outline of the constitution? |
1497 | Having so many evils, will not the most miserable of men be still more miserable in a public station? |
1497 | He asks only''What good have they done?'' |
1497 | He can hardly avoid saying Yes-- can he now? |
1497 | He is a soldier, and, like Adeimantus, has been distinguished at the battle of Megara( anno 456? |
1497 | He knows that this latter institution is not more than four or five thousand years old: may not the end revert to the beginning? |
1497 | He looked at me in astonishment, and said: No, by heaven: And are you really prepared to maintain this? |
1497 | He mentioned that he was present when one of the spirits asked another,''Where is Ardiaeus the Great?'' |
1497 | He roared out to the whole company: What folly, Socrates, has taken possession of you all? |
1497 | He said: Who then are the true philosophers? |
1497 | He was present when one of the spirits asked-- Where is Ardiaeus the Great? |
1497 | He who has an opinion has an opinion about some one thing? |
1497 | He will grow more and more indolent and careless? |
1497 | Hence arises the question,''What is great, what is small?'' |
1497 | His experience, then, will enable him to judge better than any one? |
1497 | How can that be? |
1497 | How can that be? |
1497 | How can there be? |
1497 | How can they, he said, if they are blind and can not see? |
1497 | How can they, he said, when they are not allowed to apply their minds to the callings of any of these? |
1497 | How can we? |
1497 | How cast off? |
1497 | How do they act? |
1497 | How do you distinguish them? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How do you mean? |
1497 | How is he to be wise and also innocent? |
1497 | How many? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How so? |
1497 | How then can men and women have the same? |
1497 | How then does a protector begin to change into a tyrant? |
1497 | How was that? |
1497 | How well I remember the aged poet Sophocles, when in answer to the question, How does love suit with age, Sophocles,--are you still the man you were? |
1497 | How will they proceed? |
1497 | How would they address us? |
1497 | How, then, can we be right in supposing that the absence of pain is pleasure, or that the absence of pleasure is pain? |
1497 | How? |
1497 | How? |
1497 | How? |
1497 | How? |
1497 | How? |
1497 | I am sure that I should be contented-- will not you? |
1497 | I assume, I said, that the tyrant is in the third place from the oligarch; the democrat was in the middle? |
1497 | I dare say, Glaucon, that you are as much charmed by her as I am, especially when she appears in Homer? |
1497 | I do not know, do you? |
1497 | I might say the same of the ears; when deprived of their own proper excellence they can not fulfil their end? |
1497 | I presume then that you are going to make one of the interdicted answers? |
1497 | I proceeded to ask: When two things, a greater and less, are called by the same name, are they like or unlike in so far as they are called the same? |
1497 | I repeated, Why am I especially not to be let off? |
1497 | I replied; and if we asked him what due or proper thing is given by medicine, and to whom, what answer do you think that he would make to us? |
1497 | I said; how shall we find a gentle nature which has also a great spirit, for the one is the contradiction of the other? |
1497 | I said; the prelude or what? |
1497 | I should like to know whether you have the same notion which I have of this study? |
1497 | I suppose that you would call justice virtue and injustice vice? |
1497 | I want to know whether ideals are ever fully realized in language? |
1497 | I will be wiser now and acknowledge that we must go to the bottom of another question: What is to be the education of our guardians? |
1497 | I will explain: The body which is large when seen near, appears small when seen at a distance? |
1497 | I will proceed by asking a question: Would you not say that a horse has some end? |
1497 | I will; and first tell me, Do you admit that it is just for subjects to obey their rulers? |
1497 | If wealth and gain were the criterion, then the praise or blame of the lover of gain would surely be the most trustworthy? |
1497 | Imitation is only a kind of play or sport, and the tragic poets, whether they write in Iambic or in Heroic verse, are imitators in the highest degree? |
1497 | In prescribing meats and drinks would he wish to go beyond another physician or beyond the practice of medicine? |
1497 | In the first place, are they not free; and is not the city full of freedom and frankness-- a man may say and do what he likes? |
1497 | In the next place our youth must be temperate? |
1497 | In these cases a man is not compelled to ask of thought the question what is a finger? |
1497 | In this both Plato and Kheyam rise above the level of many Christian(?) |
1497 | In what manner? |
1497 | In what manner? |
1497 | In what particulars? |
1497 | In what point of view? |
1497 | In what respect do you mean? |
1497 | In what respect? |
1497 | In what respects? |
1497 | In what way make allowance? |
1497 | In what way shown? |
1497 | In what way? |
1497 | Including the art of war? |
1497 | Indeed, Thrasymachus, and do I really appear to you to argue like an informer? |
1497 | Is God above or below the idea of good? |
1497 | Is any better than experience and wisdom and reason? |
1497 | Is any better than the old- fashioned sort which is comprehended under the name of music and gymnastic? |
1497 | Is he not a true image of the State which he represents? |
1497 | Is it a third, or akin to one of the preceding? |
1497 | Is it desirable?'' |
1497 | Is it for this that we are asked to throw away the civilization which is the growth of ages? |
1497 | Is it not on this wise?--The good at which such a State aims is to become as rich as possible, a desire which is insatiable? |
1497 | Is not Polemarchus your heir? |
1497 | Is not absolute injustice absolute weakness also? |
1497 | Is not his case utterly miserable? |
1497 | Is not honesty the best policy? |
1497 | Is not that still more disgraceful? |
1497 | Is not that true, Thrasymachus? |
1497 | Is not the Republic the vehicle of three or four great truths which, to Plato''s own mind, are most naturally represented in the form of the State? |
1497 | Is not the double also the half, and are not heavy and light relative terms which pass into one another? |
1497 | Is not the noble that which subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the God in man; the ignoble, that which subjects the man to the beast? |
1497 | Is not the noble that which subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the god in man; and the ignoble that which subjects the man to the beast?'' |
1497 | Is not the noble youth very like a well- bred dog in respect of guarding and watching? |
1497 | Is not the strength of injustice only a remnant of justice? |
1497 | Is not this the case? |
1497 | Is not this the way-- he is the son of the miserly and oligarchical father who has trained him in his own habits? |
1497 | Is not this true? |
1497 | Is not this unavoidable? |
1497 | Is not to have lost the truth an evil, and to possess the truth a good? |
1497 | Is passion then the same with reason? |
1497 | Is that true? |
1497 | Is the relation between them one of mutual antagonism or of mutual harmony? |
1497 | Is there any State in which you will find more of lamentation and sorrow and groaning and pain? |
1497 | Is there any better criterion than experience and knowledge? |
1497 | Is there any city which he might name? |
1497 | Is there any city which professes to have received laws from you, as Sicily and Italy have from Charondas, Sparta from Lycurgus, Athens from Solon? |
1497 | Is there any other virtue remaining which can compete with wisdom and temperance and courage in the scale of political virtue? |
1497 | Is there anything more? |
1497 | Is there not also a second class of goods, such as knowledge, sight, health, which are desirable not only in themselves, but also for their results? |
1497 | Is there not rather a contradiction in him? |
1497 | Is this a pattern laid up in heaven, or mere vacancy on which he is supposed to gaze with wondering eye? |
1497 | Is this ideal at all the worse for being impracticable? |
1497 | It follows therefore that the good is not the cause of all things, but of the good only? |
1497 | It may also be called temperate, and for the same reasons? |
1497 | Italy and Sicily boast of Charondas, and there is Solon who is renowned among us; but what city has anything to say about you?'' |
1497 | Justice and health of mind will be of the company, and temperance will follow after? |
1497 | Labouring in vain, he must end in hating himself and his fruitless occupation? |
1497 | Last comes the lover of gain? |
1497 | Last of all comes the tyrannical man, about whom we have to enquire, Whence is he, and how does he live-- in happiness or in misery? |
1497 | Last of all comes the tyrannical man; about whom we have once more to ask, how is he formed out of the democratical? |
1497 | Let me ask you a question: Are not the several arts different, by reason of their each having a separate function? |
1497 | Let me explain: Can you see, except with the eye? |
1497 | Let us examine this: Is not pleasure opposed to pain, and is there not a mean state which is neither? |
1497 | Let us take any common instance; there are beds and tables in the world-- plenty of them, are there not? |
1497 | Like husbandry for the acquisition of corn? |
1497 | Like ourselves, I replied; and they see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another, which the fire throws on the opposite wall of the cave? |
1497 | Look at the matter thus:--Hunger, thirst, and the like, are inanitions of the bodily state? |
1497 | Male and female animals have the same pursuits-- why not also the two sexes of man? |
1497 | May I ask, Cephalus, whether your fortune was for the most part inherited or acquired by you? |
1497 | May I have the pleasure, he said, of hearing your opinion? |
1497 | May I suppose that you have this distinction of the visible and intelligible fixed in your mind? |
1497 | May it not be defined as a period of about twenty years in a woman''s life, and thirty in a man''s? |
1497 | May not the relation of sight to this deity be described as follows? |
1497 | May there not be the alternative, I said, that we may persuade you to let us go? |
1497 | May we not be satisfied with that? |
1497 | May we not say that these desires spend, and that the others make money because they conduce to production? |
1497 | May we not say that this is the end of a pruning- hook? |
1497 | May we say so, then? |
1497 | Must he not either perish at the hands of his enemies, or from being a man become a wolf-- that is, a tyrant? |
1497 | Must we not ask who are to be rulers and who subjects? |
1497 | Must we not then infer that the individual is wise in the same way, and in virtue of the same quality which makes the State wise? |
1497 | My question is only whether the just man, while refusing to have more than another just man, would wish and claim to have more than the unjust? |
1497 | Nay, are they not wholly different? |
1497 | Need I ask again whether the eye has an end? |
1497 | Need I recall the original image of the philosopher? |
1497 | Neither may they imitate smiths or other artificers, or oarsmen, or boatswains, or the like? |
1497 | Neither must they represent slaves, male or female, performing the offices of slaves? |
1497 | Neither sight nor the eye in which sight resides is the sun? |
1497 | Neither will he ever break faith where there have been oaths or agreements? |
1497 | Neither would you approve of the delicacies, as they are thought, of Athenian confectionary? |
1497 | Neither, I said, can there be any question that the guardian who is to keep anything should have eyes rather than no eyes? |
1497 | Next as to the slain; ought the conquerors, I said, to take anything but their armour? |
1497 | Next, as to war; what are to be the relations of your soldiers to one another and to their enemies? |
1497 | Next, how shall our soldiers treat their enemies? |
1497 | Next, we shall ask our opponent how, in reference to any of the pursuits or arts of civic life, the nature of a woman differs from that of a man? |
1497 | Niebuhr has asked a trifling question, which may be briefly noticed in this place-- Was Plato a good citizen? |
1497 | No more than this? |
1497 | No one will be less likely to commit adultery, or to dishonour his father and mother, or to fail in his religious duties? |
1497 | No, indeed, I replied; and the same is true of most, if not all, the other senses-- you would not say that any of them requires such an addition? |
1497 | Nonsense, said Glaucon: did you not promise to search yourself, saying that for you not to help justice in her need would be an impiety? |
1497 | Nor by reason of a knowledge which advises about brazen pots, I said, nor as possessing any other similar knowledge? |
1497 | Nor can the good harm any one? |
1497 | Nor may they imitate the neighing of horses, the bellowing of bulls, the murmur of rivers and roll of the ocean, thunder, and all that sort of thing? |
1497 | Nor would you say that medicine is the art of receiving pay because a man takes fees when he is engaged in healing? |
1497 | Nor yet by reason of a knowledge which cultivates the earth; that would give the city the name of agricultural? |
1497 | Nor, if a man is to be in condition, would you allow him to have a Corinthian girl as his fair friend? |
1497 | Not to mention the importers and exporters, who are called merchants? |
1497 | Not, perhaps, in this brief span of life: but should an immortal being care about anything short of eternity? |
1497 | Now are we to maintain that all these and any who have similar tastes, as well as the professors of quite minor arts, are philosophers? |
1497 | Now can we be right in praising and admiring another who is doing that which any one of us would abominate and be ashamed of in his own person? |
1497 | Now in vessels which are in a state of mutiny and by sailors who are mutineers, how will the true pilot be regarded? |
1497 | Now is there not here a third principle which is often found to come to the assistance of reason against desire, but never of desire against reason? |
1497 | Now to which of these classes does temperance belong? |
1497 | Now what man answers to this form of government- how did he come into being, and what is he like? |
1497 | Now what opinion of any other Sophist, or of any private person, can be expected to overcome in such an unequal contest? |
1497 | Now which is the purer satisfaction-- that of eating and drinking, or that of knowledge? |
1497 | Now why is such an inference erroneous? |
1497 | Now you understand me? |
1497 | Now, I beseech you, do tell me, have you ever attended to their pairing and breeding? |
1497 | Now, I said, every art has an interest? |
1497 | Now, are not the best husbandmen those who are most devoted to husbandry? |
1497 | Now, can we find justice without troubling ourselves about temperance? |
1497 | Now, how shall we decide between them? |
1497 | Now, in such a State, can liberty have any limit? |
1497 | Now, ought a man to feel pleasure in seeing another do what he hates and abominates in himself? |
1497 | Now, will you appeal to mankind in general or to the philosopher? |
1497 | O my friend, is not that so? |
1497 | Of course you know that ambition and avarice are held to be, as indeed they are, a disgrace? |
1497 | Of not- being, ignorance was assumed to be the necessary correlative; of being, knowledge? |
1497 | Of the painter we say that he will paint reins, and he will paint a bit? |
1497 | Of the three individuals, which has the greatest experience of all the pleasures which we enumerated? |
1497 | Of what kind? |
1497 | Of what nature are you speaking? |
1497 | Of what nature? |
1497 | Of what sort? |
1497 | Of what tales are you speaking? |
1497 | On what principle, then, shall we any longer choose justice rather than the worst injustice? |
1497 | Once more let me ask: Does he who desires any class of goods, desire the whole class or a part only? |
1497 | Once more then, O my friend, we have alighted upon an easy question-- whether the soul has these three principles or not? |
1497 | One of them is ready to follow the guidance of the law? |
1497 | One principle prevails in the souls of one class of men, another in others, as may happen? |
1497 | One woman has a gift of healing, another not; one is a musician, and another has no music in her nature? |
1497 | Or any affinity to virtue in general? |
1497 | Or be jealous of one who has no jealousy? |
1497 | Or because a man is in good health when he receives pay you would not say that the art of payment is medicine? |
1497 | Or can such an one account death fearful? |
1497 | Or did he only seem to be a member of the ruling body, although in truth he was neither ruler nor subject, but just a spendthrift? |
1497 | Or drought moisture? |
1497 | Or have the arts to look only after their own interests? |
1497 | Or hear, except with the ear? |
1497 | Or if honour or victory or courage, in that case the judgment of the ambitious or pugnacious would be the truest? |
1497 | Or is the Idea of Good another mode of conceiving God? |
1497 | Or is there any Homeric way of life, such as the Pythagorean was, in which you instructed men, and which is called after you? |
1497 | Or like shoemaking for the acquisition of shoes,--that is what you mean? |
1497 | Or must we admit exceptions? |
1497 | Or perhaps he may tell a lie because he is afraid of enemies? |
1497 | Or shall I guess for you? |
1497 | Or shall the dead be despoiled? |
1497 | Or suppose a better sort of man who is attracted towards philosophy, will they not make Herculean efforts to spoil and corrupt him? |
1497 | Or that his nature, being such as we have delineated, is akin to the highest good? |
1497 | Or the horseman by his art make them bad horsemen? |
1497 | Or the verse''The saddest of fates is to die and meet destiny from hunger?'' |
1497 | Or was any war ever carried on by your counsels? |
1497 | Or what shall he profit by escaping discovery, if the concealment of evil prevents the cure? |
1497 | Or when they are on a voyage, amid the perils of the sea? |
1497 | Or will they prefer those whom we have rejected? |
1497 | Or, after all, they may be in the right, and poets do really know the things about which they seem to the many to speak so well? |
1497 | Or, if the master would not stay, then the disciples would have followed him about everywhere, until they had got education enough? |
1497 | Ought I not to begin by describing how the change from timocracy to oligarchy arises? |
1497 | Ought I, for example, to put back into the hands of my friend, who has gone mad, the sword which I borrowed of him when he was in his right mind? |
1497 | Our State like every other has rulers and subjects? |
1497 | Parents and tutors are always telling their sons and their wards that they are to be just; but why? |
1497 | Perhaps he of whom we say the last will be angry with us; can we pacify him without revealing the disorder of his mind? |
1497 | Presently he finds that imputations are cast upon them; a troublesome querist comes and asks,''What is the just and good?'' |
1497 | Reflect: is not the dreamer, sleeping or waking, one who likens dissimilar things, who puts the copy in the place of the real object? |
1497 | Reflect: when a man has an opinion, has he not an opinion about something? |
1497 | Reflecting upon these and similar evils, you held the tyrannical State to be the most miserable of States? |
1497 | Salvation of what? |
1497 | Say, then, is not pleasure opposed to pain? |
1497 | Shall Hellenes be enslaved? |
1497 | Shall I assume that we ourselves are able and experienced judges and have before now met with such a person? |
1497 | Shall I give you an illustration of them? |
1497 | Shall I give you an illustration? |
1497 | Shall I tell you whose I believe the saying to be? |
1497 | Shall I tell you why? |
1497 | Shall they listen to the narrative of Hephaestus binding his mother, and of Zeus sending him flying for helping her when she was beaten? |
1497 | Shall we begin by assuring him that he is welcome to any knowledge which he may have, and that we are rejoiced at his having it? |
1497 | Shall we begin education with music, and go on to gymnastic afterwards? |
1497 | Shall we not? |
1497 | Shall we propose, as a third branch of our education, astronomy? |
1497 | Shall we, after the manner of Homer, pray the Muses to tell us''how discord first arose''? |
1497 | Shall we, then, speak of Him as the natural author or maker of the bed? |
1497 | Should not their custom be to spare them, considering the danger which there is that the whole race may one day fall under the yoke of the barbarians? |
1497 | Socrates, what do you mean? |
1497 | Socrates, who is evidently preparing for an argument, next asks, What is the meaning of the word justice? |
1497 | Socrates; do you want to know how much I acquired? |
1497 | Something that is or is not? |
1497 | Something that is; for how can that which is not ever be known? |
1497 | Still, I should like to ascertain how astronomy can be learned in any manner more conducive to that knowledge of which we are speaking? |
1497 | Still, the dangers of war can not be always foreseen; there is a good deal of chance about them? |
1497 | Such is the tale; is there any possibility of making our citizens believe in it? |
1497 | Such will be the change, and after the change has been made, how will they proceed? |
1497 | Such, then, are the palms of victory which the gods give the just? |
1497 | Suppose now that by the light of the examples just offered we enquire who this imitator is? |
1497 | Suppose we call it the contentious or ambitious-- would the term be suitable? |
1497 | Suppose we select an example of either kind, in order that we may have a general notion of them? |
1497 | Tell me then, O thou heir of the argument, what did Simonides say, and according to you truly say, about justice? |
1497 | Tell me, Thrasymachus, I said, did you mean by justice what the stronger thought to be his interest, whether really so or not? |
1497 | Tell me: will he be more likely to struggle and hold out against his sorrow when he is seen by his equals, or when he is alone? |
1497 | That is also good, he said; but I should like to know what you mean? |
1497 | That is his meaning then? |
1497 | That is quite true, he said; but to what are you alluding? |
1497 | That is to say, justice is useful when money is useless? |
1497 | That since beauty is the opposite of ugliness, they are two? |
1497 | That there are three arts which are concerned with all things: one which uses, another which makes, a third which imitates them? |
1497 | That will be the way? |
1497 | The State which we have been describing is said to be wise as being good in counsel? |
1497 | The existence of such persons is to be attributed to want of education, ill- training, and an evil constitution of the State? |
1497 | The good which oligarchy proposed to itself and the means by which it was maintained was excess of wealth-- am I not right? |
1497 | The imitative artist will be in a brilliant state of intelligence about his own creations? |
1497 | The just man then, if we regard the idea of justice only, will be like the just State? |
1497 | The man is mean, saving, toiling, the slave of one passion which is the master of the rest: Is he not the very image of the State? |
1497 | The next question is, How shall we treat our enemies? |
1497 | The next question is, Who are to be our rulers? |
1497 | The object of one is food, and of the other drink? |
1497 | The one love and embrace the subjects of knowledge, the other those of opinion? |
1497 | The pleasure of eating is necessary in two ways; it does us good and it is essential to the continuance of life? |
1497 | The process is as follows: When a potter becomes rich, will he, think you, any longer take the same pains with his art? |
1497 | The question is asked,--Why are the citizens of states so hostile to philosophy? |
1497 | The ruler may impose the laws and institutions which we have been describing, and the citizens may possibly be willing to obey them? |
1497 | The second paradox leads up to some curious and interesting questions-- How far can the mind control the body? |
1497 | The soul, I said, being, as is now proven, immortal, must be the fairest of compositions and can not be compounded of many elements? |
1497 | The true lie is hated not only by the gods, but also by men? |
1497 | The true lover of learning then must from his earliest youth, as far as in him lies, desire all truth? |
1497 | The very great benefit has next to be established? |
1497 | The whole period of three score years and ten is surely but a little thing in comparison with eternity? |
1497 | Their pleasures are mixed with pains-- how can they be otherwise? |
1497 | Then I may infer courage to be such as you describe? |
1497 | Then I suppose that opinion appears to you to be darker than knowledge, but lighter than ignorance? |
1497 | Then I suppose that we ought to do good to the just and harm to the unjust? |
1497 | Then a city is not to be called wise because possessing a knowledge which counsels for the best about wooden implements? |
1497 | Then a soul which forgets can not be ranked among genuine philosophic natures; we must insist that the philosopher should have a good memory? |
1497 | Then according to your argument it is just to injure those who do no wrong? |
1497 | Then an evil soul must necessarily be an evil ruler and superintendent, and the good soul a good ruler? |
1497 | Then are we to impose all our enactments on men and none of them on women? |
1497 | Then carpenters, and smiths, and many other artisans, will be sharers in our little State, which is already beginning to grow? |
1497 | Then clearly the next thing will be to make matrimony sacred in the highest degree, and what is most beneficial will be deemed sacred? |
1497 | Then comparing our original city, which was under a king, and the city which is under a tyrant, how do they stand as to virtue? |
1497 | Then everything which is good, whether made by art or nature, or both, is least liable to suffer change from without? |
1497 | Then he can hardly be compelled by external influence to take many shapes? |
1497 | Then he who is a good keeper of anything is also a good thief? |
1497 | Then he who is to be a really good and noble guardian of the State will require to unite in himself philosophy and spirit and swiftness and strength? |
1497 | Then he will no more have true opinion than he will have knowledge about the goodness or badness of his imitations? |
1497 | Then hirelings will help to make up our population? |
1497 | Then how can he who has magnificence of mind and is the spectator of all time and all existence, think much of human life? |
1497 | Then if being is the subject- matter of knowledge, something else must be the subject- matter of opinion? |
1497 | Then if geometry compels us to view being, it concerns us; if becoming only, it does not concern us? |
1497 | Then if the constitutions of States are five, the dispositions of individual minds will also be five? |
1497 | Then if the man is like the State, I said, must not the same rule prevail? |
1497 | Then if there be any city which may be described as master of its own pleasures and desires, and master of itself, ours may claim such a designation? |
1497 | Then in every way the laws will help the citizens to keep the peace with one another? |
1497 | Then in making their laws they may sometimes make them rightly, and sometimes not? |
1497 | Then in this case the narrative of the poet may be said to proceed by way of imitation? |
1497 | Then in this kind of State there will be the greatest variety of human natures? |
1497 | Then in time of peace justice will be of no use? |
1497 | Then in time of peace what is the good of justice? |
1497 | Then it will be our duty to select, if we can, natures which are fitted for the task of guarding the city? |
1497 | Then justice, according to your argument, is not only obedience to the interest of the stronger but the reverse? |
1497 | Then knowledge and opinion having distinct powers have also distinct spheres or subject- matters? |
1497 | Then medicine does not consider the interest of medicine, but the interest of the body? |
1497 | Then men who are injured are of necessity made unjust? |
1497 | Then more husbandmen and more artisans will be required? |
1497 | Then must not a further admission be made? |
1497 | Then no intemperance or madness should be allowed to approach true love? |
1497 | Then no motive can be imagined why God should lie? |
1497 | Then now comes the question,--How shall we create our rulers; what way is there from darkness to light? |
1497 | Then on this view also justice will be admitted to be the having and doing what is a man''s own, and belongs to him? |
1497 | Then opinion and knowledge have to do with different kinds of matter corresponding to this difference of faculties? |
1497 | Then opinion is not concerned either with being or with not- being? |
1497 | Then reflect; has the ear or voice need of any third or additional nature in order that the one may be able to hear and the other to be heard? |
1497 | Then shall we propose this as a second branch of knowledge which our youth will study? |
1497 | Then shall we try to find some way of convincing him, if we can, that he is saying what is not true? |
1497 | Then that is not the knowledge which we are seeking to discover? |
1497 | Then that part of the soul which has an opinion contrary to measure is not the same with that which has an opinion in accordance with measure? |
1497 | Then the art of war partakes of them? |
1497 | Then the community of wives and children among our citizens is clearly the source of the greatest good to the State? |
1497 | Then the cowardly and mean nature has no part in true philosophy? |
1497 | Then the intermediate state of rest will be pleasure and will also be pain? |
1497 | Then the just is happy, and the unjust miserable? |
1497 | Then the just is like the wise and good, and the unjust like the evil and ignorant? |
1497 | Then the just soul and the just man will live well, and the unjust man will live ill? |
1497 | Then the lover of wisdom has a great advantage over the lover of gain, for he has a double experience? |
1497 | Then the lying poet has no place in our idea of God? |
1497 | Then the soul of the thirsty one, in so far as he is thirsty, desires only drink; for this he yearns and tries to obtain it? |
1497 | Then the sun is not sight, but the author of sight who is recognised by sight? |
1497 | Then the superhuman and divine is absolutely incapable of falsehood? |
1497 | Then the tyrant is removed from true pleasure by the space of a number which is three times three? |
1497 | Then the tyrant will live at the greatest distance from true or natural pleasure, and the king at the least? |
1497 | Then the wise and good will not desire to gain more than his like, but more than his unlike and opposite? |
1497 | Then the world can not possibly be a philosopher? |
1497 | Then there is nothing impossible or out of the order of nature in our finding a guardian who has a similar combination of qualities? |
1497 | Then there must be another class of citizens who will bring the required supply from another city? |
1497 | Then they will quarrel as those who intend some day to be reconciled? |
1497 | Then this is the progress which you call dialectic? |
1497 | Then this new kind of knowledge must have an additional quality? |
1497 | Then to injure a friend or any one else is not the act of a just man, but of the opposite, who is the unjust? |
1497 | Then to them the good will be enemies and the evil will be their friends? |
1497 | Then virtue is the health and beauty and well- being of the soul, and vice the disease and weakness and deformity of the same? |
1497 | Then we have found the desired natures; and now that we have found them, how are they to be reared and educated? |
1497 | Then we have made an enactment not only possible but in the highest degree beneficial to the State? |
1497 | Then we have now, I said, the second form of government and the second type of character? |
1497 | Then we may assume that our athletes will be able to fight with two or three times their own number? |
1497 | Then we may begin by assuming that there are three classes of men-- lovers of wisdom, lovers of honour, lovers of gain? |
1497 | Then we must abstain from spoiling the dead or hindering their burial? |
1497 | Then we shall want merchants? |
1497 | Then what is that joint use of silver or gold in which the just man is to be preferred? |
1497 | Then what is your meaning? |
1497 | Then what will you do with them? |
1497 | Then when the person who asks me is not in his right mind I am by no means to make the return? |
1497 | Then who is more miserable? |
1497 | Then why are they paid? |
1497 | Then why not sin and pay for indulgences out of your sin? |
1497 | Then why should you mind? |
1497 | Then will not the citizens be good and civilized? |
1497 | Then women must be taught music and gymnastic and also the art of war, which they must practise like the men? |
1497 | Then would you call injustice malignity? |
1497 | Then you never heard of the saying of Phocylides, that as soon as a man has a livelihood he should practise virtue? |
1497 | Then you will make a law that they shall have such an education as will enable them to attain the greatest skill in asking and answering questions? |
1497 | Then you would infer that opinion is intermediate? |
1497 | Then you would not approve of Syracusan dinners, and the refinements of Sicilian cookery? |
1497 | Then, I said, if these and these only are to be used in our songs and melodies, we shall not want multiplicity of notes or a panharmonic scale? |
1497 | Then, I said, no science or art considers or enjoins the interest of the stronger or superior, but only the interest of the subject and weaker? |
1497 | Then, I said, our guardians must lay the foundations of their fortress in music? |
1497 | Then, again, within the city, how will they exchange their productions? |
1497 | Then, do you see any way in which the philosopher can be preserved in his calling to the end? |
1497 | Then, if there be any good which all artists have in common, that is to be attributed to something of which they all have the common use? |
1497 | Then, if women are to have the same duties as men, they must have the same nurture and education? |
1497 | Then, under the influence either of poverty or of wealth, workmen and their work are equally liable to degenerate? |
1497 | There is a thing which you call good and another which you call evil? |
1497 | There is another which is the work of the carpenter? |
1497 | There is the knowledge of the carpenter; but is that the sort of knowledge which gives a city the title of wise and good in counsel? |
1497 | There may come a time when the saying,''Have I not a right to do what I will with my own?'' |
1497 | There were two parts in our former scheme of education, were there not? |
1497 | There you are right, he replied; but if any one asks where are such models to be found and of what tales are you speaking-- how shall we answer him? |
1497 | These are the three styles-- which of them is to be admitted into our State? |
1497 | These matters, however, as I was saying, had better be referred to Damon himself, for the analysis of the subject would be difficult, you know? |
1497 | These then may be truly said to be the ends of these organs? |
1497 | These, then, are the two kinds of style? |
1497 | They are like faces which were never really beautiful, but only blooming; and now the bloom of youth has passed away from them? |
1497 | They will use friendly correction, but will not enslave or destroy their opponents; they will be correctors, not enemies? |
1497 | This, I said, is he who begins to make a party against the rich? |
1497 | This, then, will be the first great defect of oligarchy? |
1497 | Thrasymachus said,''Do you think that we have come hither to dig for gold, or to hear you discourse?'' |
1497 | Thus much of music, which makes a fair ending; for what should be the end of music if not the love of beauty? |
1497 | To be sure, he said; how can he think otherwise? |
1497 | To return to the tyrant-- How will he support that rare army of his? |
1497 | To tell the truth and pay your debts? |
1497 | To what do you refer? |
1497 | To what do you refer? |
1497 | True, I said; but would you never allow them to run any risk? |
1497 | True, he replied; but what of that? |
1497 | True, he said; how could they see anything but the shadows if they were never allowed to move their heads? |
1497 | Undoubtedly; and yet if music and gymnastic are excluded, and the arts are also excluded, what remains? |
1497 | Union and force and rhetoric will do much; and if men say that they can not prevail over the gods, still how do we know that there are gods? |
1497 | Until some one rare and grand result is reached which may be good, and may be the reverse of good? |
1497 | Very good, I said; then what is the next question? |
1497 | Very good, Thrasymachus, I said; and now to take the case of the arts: you would admit that one man is a musician and another not a musician? |
1497 | Very true, Adeimantus; but then, would any one, whether God or man, desire to make himself worse? |
1497 | Very true, I said; that is what I have to do: But will you be so good as answer yet one more question? |
1497 | Very true, he said; but what are these forms of theology which you mean? |
1497 | Very true, said Adeimantus; but how does the illustration apply to our enquiry? |
1497 | Was not the selection of the male guardians determined by differences of this sort? |
1497 | Was not this the beginning of the enquiry''What is great?'' |
1497 | We acknowledged-- did we not? |
1497 | We are not wrong therefore in calling them necessary? |
1497 | We can not but remember that the justice of the State consisted in each of the three classes doing the work of its own class? |
1497 | We had to consider, first, whether our proposals were possible, and secondly whether they were the most beneficial? |
1497 | We must recollect that the individual in whom the several qualities of his nature do their own work will be just, and will do his own work? |
1497 | We were saying that the parents should be in the prime of life? |
1497 | We were saying, when we spoke of the subject- matter, that we had no need of lamentation and strains of sorrow? |
1497 | Well said, Cephalus, I replied; but as concerning justice, what is it?--to speak the truth and to pay your debts-- no more than this? |
1497 | Well then, here are three beds: one existing in nature, which is made by God, as I think that we may say-- for no one else can be the maker? |
1497 | Well then, is not- being the subject- matter of opinion? |
1497 | Well then, you would admit that the qualities of states mean the qualities of the individuals who compose them? |
1497 | Well, I said, and how does the change from oligarchy into democracy arise? |
1497 | Well, I said, and in oligarchical States do you not find paupers? |
1497 | Well, I said, and is there no evil which corrupts the soul? |
1497 | Well, I said, and you would agree( would you not?) |
1497 | Well, I said, the subject has several difficulties-- What is possible? |
1497 | Well, I said; but if we suppose a change in anything, that change must be effected either by the thing itself, or by some other thing? |
1497 | Well, and are these of any military use? |
1497 | Well, and can the eyes fulfil their end if they are wanting in their own proper excellence and have a defect instead? |
1497 | Well, and do you think that those who say so are wrong? |
1497 | Well, and is not this one quality, to mention no others, greatly at variance with present notions of him? |
1497 | Well, and were we not creating an ideal of a perfect State? |
1497 | Well, and your guardian must be brave if he is to fight well? |
1497 | Well, but can you imagine that God will be willing to lie, whether in word or deed, or to put forth a phantom of himself? |
1497 | Well, but has any one a right to say positively what he does not know? |
1497 | Well, but if they are ever to run a risk should they not do so on some occasion when, if they escape disaster, they will be the better for it? |
1497 | Well, but is there any war on record which was carried on successfully by him, or aided by his counsels, when he was alive? |
1497 | Well, but what ought to be the criterion? |
1497 | Well, he said, have you never heard that forms of government differ; there are tyrannies, and there are democracies, and there are aristocracies? |
1497 | Well, there is another question: By friends and enemies do we mean those who are so really, or only in seeming? |
1497 | Well, you know of course that the greater is relative to the less? |
1497 | Well; and has not the soul an end which nothing else can fulfil? |
1497 | Were not these your words? |
1497 | What about this? |
1497 | What admission? |
1497 | What admissions? |
1497 | What are these corruptions? |
1497 | What are they, he said, and where shall I find them? |
1497 | What are they? |
1497 | What are they? |
1497 | What are they? |
1497 | What are you going to say? |
1497 | What causes? |
1497 | What defect? |
1497 | What did I borrow? |
1497 | What division? |
1497 | What do they say? |
1497 | What do you deserve to have done to you? |
1497 | What do you mean, Socrates? |
1497 | What do you mean? |

1497 | What do you say? |
1497 | What do you say? |
1497 | What do you say?'' |
1497 | What do you think? |
1497 | What else can they do? |
1497 | What else then would you say? |
1497 | What else would you have? |
1497 | What evil? |
1497 | What evil? |
1497 | What evils? |
1497 | What faculty? |
1497 | What good? |
1497 | What is desirable? |
1497 | What is it? |
1497 | What is it? |
1497 | What is it? |
1497 | What is most required? |
1497 | What is that you are saying? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is that? |
1497 | What is the difference? |
1497 | What is the process? |
1497 | What is the proposition? |
1497 | What is there remaining? |
1497 | What is to be done then? |
1497 | What is your illustration? |
1497 | What is your notion? |
1497 | What is your proposal? |
1497 | What limit would you propose? |
1497 | What makes you say that? |
1497 | What may that be? |
1497 | What may that be? |
1497 | What may that be? |
1497 | What of this line,''O heavy with wine, who hast the eyes of a dog and the heart of a stag,''and of the words which follow? |
1497 | What point of view? |
1497 | What point? |
1497 | What point? |
1497 | What principle of rival Sophists or anybody else can overcome in such an unequal contest? |
1497 | What quality? |
1497 | What quality? |
1497 | What question? |
1497 | What shall he profit, if his injustice be undetected and unpunished? |
1497 | What shall we say to him? |
1497 | What should they fear? |
1497 | What sort of instances do you mean? |
1497 | What sort of knowledge is there which would draw the soul from becoming to being? |
1497 | What sort of lie? |
1497 | What sort of mischief? |
1497 | What study do you mean-- of the prelude, or what? |
1497 | What tale? |
1497 | What the poets and story- tellers say-- that the wicked prosper and the righteous are afflicted, or that justice is another''s gain? |
1497 | What then is the real object of them? |
1497 | What then? |
1497 | What trait? |
1497 | What was the error, Polemarchus? |
1497 | What was the mistake? |
1497 | What was the omission? |
1497 | What way? |
1497 | What will be the issue of such marriages? |
1497 | What will be the issue of such marriages? |
1497 | What will they doubt? |
1497 | What, Thrasymachus, is the meaning of this? |
1497 | What, again, is the meaning of light and heavy, if that which is light is also heavy, and that which is heavy, light? |
1497 | What, are there any greater still? |
1497 | What, he said, is there a knowledge still higher than this-- higher than justice and the other virtues? |
1497 | What, now, I said, if he were able to run away and then turn and strike at the one who first came up? |
1497 | What, then, he said, is still remaining to us of the work of legislation? |
1497 | What, then, is the nature of dialectic, and what are the paths which lead thither?'' |
1497 | What? |
1497 | What? |
1497 | When Simonides said that the repayment of a debt was justice, he did not mean to include that case? |
1497 | When a man can not measure, and a great many others who can not measure declare that he is four cubits high, can he help believing what they say? |
1497 | When he is by himself he will not mind saying or doing many things which he would be ashamed of any one hearing or seeing him do? |
1497 | When horses are injured, are they improved or deteriorated? |
1497 | When is this accomplished? |
1497 | When mankind see that the happiness of states is only to be found in that image, will they be angry with us for attempting to delineate it? |
1497 | When they make them rightly, they make them agreeably to their interest; when they are mistaken, contrary to their interest; you admit that? |
1497 | Where must I look? |
1497 | Where then is he to gain experience? |
1497 | Where then? |
1497 | Where, then, is justice, and where is injustice, and in what part of the State did they spring up? |
1497 | Whereas he who has a taste for every sort of knowledge and who is curious to learn and is never satisfied, may be justly termed a philosopher? |
1497 | Whereas the bad and ignorant will desire to gain more than both? |
1497 | Whereas the physician and the carpenter have different natures? |
1497 | Whereas true love is a love of beauty and order-- temperate and harmonious? |
1497 | Which appetites do you mean? |
1497 | Which are they? |
1497 | Which is a just principle? |
1497 | Which of us has spoken truly? |
1497 | Which years do you mean to include? |
1497 | Who better suited to raise the question of justice than Cephalus, whose life might seem to be the expression of it? |
1497 | Who can be at enmity with one who loves them, who that is himself gentle and free from envy will be jealous of one in whom there is no jealousy? |
1497 | Who can hate a man who loves him? |
1497 | Who can measure probabilities against certainties? |
1497 | Who can weigh virtue, or even fortune against health, or moral and mental qualities against bodily? |
1497 | Who is he? |
1497 | Who is it, I said, whom you are refusing to let off? |
1497 | Who is that? |
1497 | Who that is not a miserable caitiff will refrain from smiling at the praises of justice? |
1497 | Who then are those whom we shall compel to be guardians? |
1497 | Who then can be a guardian? |
1497 | Who was that? |
1497 | Whom, I said, are you not going to let off? |
1497 | Whose is that light which makes the eye to see perfectly and the visible to appear? |
1497 | Whose? |
1497 | Why do you ask such a question, I said, when you ought rather to be answering? |
1497 | Why do you ask? |
1497 | Why do you say so? |
1497 | Why great caution? |
1497 | Why indeed, he said, when any name will do which expresses the thought of the mind with clearness? |
1497 | Why is that? |
1497 | Why not, as Aeschylus says, utter the word which rises to our lips? |
1497 | Why not? |
1497 | Why not? |
1497 | Why not? |
1497 | Why not? |
1497 | Why not? |
1497 | Why should he? |
1497 | Why should they not be? |
1497 | Why so? |
1497 | Why so? |
1497 | Why so? |
1497 | Why so? |
1497 | Why, I replied, what do you want more? |
1497 | Why, I said, do you not see that men are unwillingly deprived of good, and willingly of evil? |
1497 | Why, I said, what was ever great in a short time? |
1497 | Why, in the first place, although they are all of a good sort, are not some better than others? |
1497 | Why, what else is there? |
1497 | Why, where can they still find any ground for objection? |
1497 | Why, yes, I said, of course they answer truly; how can the Muses speak falsely? |
1497 | Why, yes, he said: how can any reasonable being ever identify that which is infallible with that which errs? |
1497 | Why, you do not mean to say that the tyrant will use violence? |
1497 | Why? |
1497 | Why? |
1497 | Why? |
1497 | Why? |
1497 | Will any one deny the other point, that there may be sons of kings or princes who are by nature philosophers? |
1497 | Will any private training enable him to stand firm against the overwhelming flood of popular opinion? |
1497 | Will he know from use whether or no his drawing is correct or beautiful? |
1497 | Will he not also require natural aptitude for his calling? |
1497 | Will he not be called by them a prater, a star- gazer, a good- for- nothing? |
1497 | Will he not fancy that the shadows which he formerly saw are truer than the objects which are now shown to him? |
1497 | Will he not have the notions of good and evil which the public in general have-- he will do as they do, and as they are, such will he be? |
1497 | Will he not rather obtain them on the spot? |
1497 | Will he not think that heaven and the things in heaven are framed by the Creator of them in the most perfect manner? |
1497 | Will he not utterly hate a lie? |
1497 | Will horsemen carry torches and pass them one to another during the race? |
1497 | Will not a young man''s heart leap amid these discordant sounds? |
1497 | Will not such an one from his early childhood be in all things first among all, especially if his bodily endowments are like his mental ones? |
1497 | Will not the guardians be the smallest of all the classes who receive a name from the profession of some kind of knowledge? |
1497 | Will not their eyes be dazzled, and will they not try to get away from the light to something which they are able to behold without blinking? |
1497 | Will our citizens ever believe all this? |
1497 | Will the creature feel any compunction at tyrannizing over them? |
1497 | Will the just man or citizen ever be guilty of sacrilege or theft, or treachery either to his friends or to his country? |
1497 | Will the just state or the just individual steal, lie, commit adultery, or be guilty of impiety to gods and men? |
1497 | Will they disbelieve us, when we tell them that no State can be happy which is not designed by artists who imitate the heavenly pattern? |
1497 | Will they doubt that the philosopher is a lover of truth and being? |
1497 | Will they not be sophisms captivating to the ear, having nothing in them genuine, or worthy of or akin to true wisdom? |
1497 | Will they not be vile and bastard, devoid of truth and nature? |
1497 | Will they not be vile and bastard? |
1497 | Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves? |
1497 | Will you admit so much? |
1497 | Will you enquire yourself? |
1497 | Will you explain your meaning? |
1497 | Will you repay me, then, what you borrowed in the argument? |
1497 | Will you say that the world is of another mind? |
1497 | Will you say whether you approve of my proposal? |
1497 | Will you tell me? |
1497 | Will you tell me? |
1497 | Will you then kindly answer, for the edification of the company and of myself? |
1497 | Would a man who wanted to be safe on a voyage take a bad pilot because he was rich, or refuse a good one because he was poor? |
1497 | Would any one deny this? |
1497 | Would he allow imitation to be the ruling principle of his life, as if he had nothing higher in him? |
1497 | Would he not be worse than Eriphyle, who sold her husband''s life for a necklace? |
1497 | Would he not have had many devoted followers? |
1497 | Would he not rather say or do the same as his like in the same case? |
1497 | Would not he who is fitted to be a guardian, besides the spirited nature, need to have the qualities of a philosopher? |
1497 | Would that be your way of speaking? |
1497 | Would the picture of a perfectly beautiful man be any the worse because no such man ever lived? |
1497 | Would they not have been as unwilling to part with them as with gold, and have compelled them to stay at home with them? |
1497 | Would you agree with me in thinking that the corrupting and destroying element is the evil, and the saving and improving element the good? |
1497 | Would you call one of them virtue and the other vice? |
1497 | Would you have me put the proof bodily into your souls? |
1497 | Would you know the measure of the interval which separates them? |
1497 | Would you like, for the sake of clearness, to distinguish which are the necessary and which are the unnecessary pleasures? |
1497 | Would you say six or four years? |
1497 | Would you say that all men are equal in excellence, or is one man better than another? |
1497 | Would you say that knowledge is a faculty, or in what class would you place it? |
1497 | Yes, I said, a jest; and why? |
1497 | Yes, I said; and the higher principle is ready to follow this suggestion of reason? |
1497 | Yes, I said; and this being true of one must be equally true of all number? |
1497 | Yes, I said; and when a man dies gloriously in war shall we not say, in the first place, that he is of the golden race? |
1497 | Yes, I said; but if this definition of justice also breaks down, what other can be offered? |
1497 | Yes, Socrates, he said, and if you were providing for a city of pigs, how else would you feed the beasts? |
1497 | Yes, but also something more-- Is it not doubtful whether our guardians are to be imitators at all? |
1497 | Yes, but could this ever have happened if Homer had really been the educator of Hellas? |
1497 | Yes, but do not persons often err about good and evil: many who are not good seem to be so, and conversely? |
1497 | Yes, he replied, such is very often the case; but what has that to do with us and our argument? |
1497 | Yes, he said, that sort of thing is certainly very blameable; but what are the stories which you mean? |
1497 | Yes, he said; but what are the characteristics of this form of government, and what are the defects of which we were speaking? |
1497 | Yes, he said; how can I deny it? |
1497 | Yes, that is very true, but may I ask another question?--What do you consider to be the greatest blessing which you have reaped from your wealth? |
1497 | Yes, the greatest; but will you explain yourself? |
1497 | Yes; and is not this true of the government of anything? |
1497 | Yes; but how in such partnerships is the just man of more use than any other man? |
1497 | Yet if he is not the maker, what is he in relation to the bed? |
1497 | Yet of all the organs of sense the eye is the most like the sun? |
1497 | You are aware, I suppose, that all mythology and poetry is a narration of events, either past, present, or to come? |
1497 | You are further aware that most people affirm pleasure to be the good, but the finer sort of wits say it is knowledge? |
1497 | You have answered me, I replied: Well, and may we not further say that our guardians are the best of our citizens? |
1497 | You know that they live securely and have nothing to apprehend from their servants? |
1497 | You mean geometry? |
1497 | You mean that they would shipwreck? |
1497 | You mean that you do not understand the nature of this payment which to the best men is the great inducement to rule? |
1497 | You mean to ask, I said, what will be our answer? |
1497 | You mean to say that the people, from whom he has derived his being, will maintain him and his companions? |
1497 | You mean when money is not wanted, but allowed to lie? |
1497 | You mean, I suspect, to ask whether tragedy and comedy shall be admitted into our State? |
1497 | You recognise the truth of what I have been saying? |
1497 | You remember what people say when they are sick? |
1497 | You remember, I said, how the rulers were chosen before? |
1497 | You say that perfect injustice is more gainful than perfect justice? |
1497 | You think that justice may be of use in peace as well as in war? |
1497 | You will admit that the same education which makes a man a good guardian will make a woman a good guardian; for their original nature is the same? |
1497 | You would agree with me? |
1497 | You would allow, I said, that there is in nature an upper and lower and middle region? |
1497 | You would argue that the good are our friends and the bad our enemies? |
1497 | You would compare them, I said, to those invalids who, having no self- restraint, will not leave off their habits of intemperance? |
1497 | You would not be inclined to say, would you, that navigation is the art of medicine, at least if we are to adopt your exact use of language? |
1497 | You would not deny that those who have any true notion without intelligence are only like blind men who feel their way along the road? |
1497 | and are not the best judges in like manner those who are acquainted with all sorts of moral natures? |
1497 | and does not the actual tyrant lead a worse life than he whose life you determined to be the worst? |
1497 | and even in their peculiar pursuits, are not women often, though in some cases superior to men, ridiculously enough surpassed by them? |
1497 | and he who has tyrannized longest and most, most continually and truly miserable; although this may not be the opinion of men in general? |
1497 | and how does he live, in happiness or in misery? |
1497 | and how shall we manage the period between birth and education, which seems to require the greatest care? |
1497 | and is no difference made by the circumstance that one of the fingers is in the middle and another at the extremity? |
1497 | and must he not be represented as such? |
1497 | and will any education save him from being carried away by the torrent? |
1497 | and you would agree that to conceive things as they are is to possess the truth? |
1497 | and''What is small?'' |
1497 | beat his father if he opposes him? |
1497 | he said; are they not capable of defending themselves? |
1497 | he said; ought we to give them a worse life, when they might have a better? |
1497 | he says;''would you have me put the words bodily into your souls?'' |
1497 | or any greater good than the bond of unity? |
1497 | or is any invention attributed to you, as there is to Thales and Anacharsis? |
1497 | or is the subject- matter of opinion the same as the subject- matter of knowledge? |
1497 | or that he who errs in arithmetic or grammar is an arithmetician or grammarian at the time when he is making the mistake, in respect of the mistake? |
1497 | or the knowledge of all other things if we have no knowledge of beauty and goodness? |
1497 | or will he be carried away by the stream? |
1497 | or will he have right opinion from being compelled to associate with another who knows and gives him instructions about what he should draw? |
1497 | or will you make allowance for them? |
1497 | or would you include the mixed? |
1497 | or would you prefer to look to yourself only? |
1497 | or, rather, how can there be an opinion at all about not- being? |
1497 | or, suppose them to have no care of human things-- why in either case should we mind about concealment? |
1497 | shall we condescend to legislate on any of these particulars? |
1497 | were you not saying that he too makes, not the idea which, according to our view, is the essence of the bed, but only a particular bed? |
1497 | would he not desire to have more than either the knowing or the ignorant? |
1497 | you are incredulous, are you? |
55201 | Will he,in the language of Pindar,"make justice his high tower, or fortify himself with crooked deceit?" |
55201 | ''And a true answer, of course:--but what more have they to say?'' |
55201 | ''And can we conceive things greater still?'' |
55201 | ''And do not the natures of men and women differ very much indeed?'' |
55201 | ''And how will they begin their work?'' |
55201 | ''And is her proper state ours or some other?'' |
55201 | ''And what are the highest?'' |
55201 | ''And what can I do more for you?'' |
55201 | ''And what will they say?'' |
55201 | ''But how shall we know the degrees of affinity, when all things are common?'' |
55201 | ''But if many states join their resources, shall we not be in danger?'' |
55201 | ''But then how will our poor city be able to go to war against an enemy who has money?'' |
55201 | ''But will curiosity make a philosopher? |
55201 | ''But, Socrates, what is this supreme principle, knowledge or pleasure, or what? |
55201 | ''But, my dear Socrates, you are forgetting the main question: Is such a State possible? |
55201 | ''But,''said Glaucon, interposing,''are they not to have a relish?'' |
55201 | ''Do you ask whether tragedy and comedy are to be admitted?'' |
55201 | ''Glorious, indeed; but what is to follow?'' |
55201 | ''How can we resist such arguments in favour of injustice? |
55201 | ''I do not understand what you mean?'' |
55201 | ''I should like to know of what constitutions you were speaking?'' |
55201 | ''Is it possible? |
55201 | ''Lover of wisdom,''''lover of knowledge,''are titles which we may fitly apply to that part of the soul? |
55201 | ''Socrates,''he says,''what folly is this?--Why do you agree to be vanquished by one another in a pretended argument?'' |
55201 | ''Surely you are not prepared to prove that?'' |
55201 | ''Sweet Sir,''we will say to him,''what think you of things esteemed noble and ignoble? |
55201 | ''Then how are we to describe the true?'' |
55201 | ''Then how is such an admission reconcileable with the doctrine that philosophers should be kings?'' |
55201 | ''Well, and what answer do you give?'' |
55201 | ''What appetites do you mean?'' |
55201 | ''What do you mean?'' |
55201 | ''What, then, shall a man profit, if he gain the whole world''and become more and more wicked? |
55201 | ''When a lively- minded ingenuous youth hears all this, what will be his conclusion? |
55201 | ''Who is that?'' |
55201 | ''Will they not think this a hardship?'' |
55201 | ''You do not mean to say that he will beat his father?'' |
55201 | * 330B* Socrates; do you want to know how much I acquired? |
55201 | * 331C* Well said, Cephalus, I replied; but as concerning justice, what is it?--to speak the truth and to pay your debts-- no more than this? |
55201 | * 331E* Tell me then, O thou heir of the argument, what did Simonides say, and according to you truly say, about justice? |
55201 | * 332E* Or when they are on a voyage, amid the perils of the sea? |
55201 | * 333A* You think that justice may be of use in peace as well as in war? |
55201 | * 333B* But is the just man or the skilful player a more useful and better partner at a game of draughts? |
55201 | * 334C* Well, there is another question: By friends and enemies do we mean those who are so really, or only in seeming? |
55201 | * 335* And are our friends to be only the good, and our enemies to be the evil? |
55201 | * 335C* And will not men who are injured be deteriorated in that which is the proper virtue of man? |
55201 | * 336A* Shall I tell you whose I believe the saying to be? |
55201 | * 336C* And why, sillybillies, do you knock under to one another? |
55201 | * 337D* But what if I give you an answer about justice other and better, he said, than any of these? |
55201 | * 339C* But are the rulers of states absolutely infallible, or are they sometimes liable to err? |
55201 | * 339D* Then justice, according to your argument, is not only obedience to the interest of the stronger but the reverse? |
55201 | * 341C* And do you imagine, I said, that I am such a madman as to try and cheat, Thrasymachus? |
55201 | * 341E* What do you mean? |
55201 | * 342C* Then medicine does not consider the interest of medicine, but the interest of the body? |
55201 | * 343*''Tell me, Socrates,''he says,''have you a nurse?'' |
55201 | * 346* Then why are they paid? |
55201 | * 346E* But does he therefore confer no benefit when he works for nothing? |
55201 | * 348A* Did you hear all the advantages of the unjust which Thrasymachus was rehearsing? |
55201 | * 348D* Then would you call injustice malignity? |
55201 | * 349B* Very true, I said; that is what I have to do: But will you be so good as answer yet one more question? |
55201 | * 350A* And what would you say of the physician? |
55201 | * 350C* And you also said that the just will not go beyond his like but his unlike? |
55201 | * 351E* And even if injustice be found in two only, will they not quarrel and fight, and become enemies to one another and to the just? |
55201 | * 352B* But if so, the unjust will be the enemy of the gods, and the just will be their friend? |
55201 | * 353A* But you can cut off a vine- branch with a dagger or with a chisel, and in many other ways? |
55201 | * 353D* And the same observation will apply to all other things? |
55201 | * 353E* And can she or can she not fulfil her own ends when deprived of that excellence? |
55201 | * 354A* And he who lives well is blessed and happy, and he who lives ill the reverse of happy? |
55201 | * 366* Then why not sin and pay for indulgences out of your sin? |
55201 | * 373D* And living in this way we shall have much greater need of physicians than before? |
55201 | * 374B* But is not war an art? |
55201 | * 377A* And the young should be trained in both kinds, and we begin with the false? |
55201 | * 380D* And what do you think of a second principle? |
55201 | * 381A* And will not the bravest and wisest soul be least confused or deranged by any external influence? |
55201 | * 381B* Then everything which is good, whether made by art or nature, or both, is least liable to suffer change from without? |
55201 | * 387D* And shall we proceed to get rid of the weepings and wailings of famous men? |
55201 | * 397D* And shall we receive into our State all the three styles, or one only of the two unmixed styles? |
55201 | * 398E* And which are the harmonies expressive of sorrow? |
55201 | * 404A* And will the habit of body of our ordinary athletes be suited to them? |
55201 | * 404D* Then you would not approve of Syracusan dinners, and the refinements of Sicilian cookery? |
55201 | * 407A* Has he not, I said, an occupation; and what profit would there be in his life if he were deprived of his occupation? |
55201 | * 411A* And the harmonious soul is both temperate and courageous? |
55201 | * 413B* And is not this involuntary deprivation caused either by theft, or force, or enchantment? |
55201 | * 420B* You mean to ask, I said, what will be our answer? |
55201 | * 424D* Then, I said, our guardians must lay the foundations of their fortress in music? |
55201 | * 426D* But do you not admire, I said, the coolness and dexterity of these ready ministers of political corruption? |
55201 | * 427B* What, then, he said, is still remaining to us of the work of legislation? |
55201 | * 428E* And will there be in our city more of these true guardians or more smiths? |
55201 | * 435B* The just man then, if we regard the idea of justice only, will be like the just State? |
55201 | * 439D* And the forbidding principle is derived from reason, and that which bids and attracts proceeds from passion and disease? |
55201 | * 440E* What point? |
55201 | * 441* Is passion then the same with reason? |
55201 | * 443B* And the reason is that each part of him is doing its own business, whether in ruling or being ruled? |
55201 | * 444D* And just actions cause justice, and unjust actions cause injustice? |
55201 | * 445* Again the old question returns upon us: Is justice or injustice the more profitable? |
55201 | * 449C* I repeated[1], Why am I especially not to be let off? |
55201 | * 450* Thrasymachus said,''Do you think that we have come hither to dig for gold, or to hear you discourse?'' |
55201 | * 455* Admitting that women differ from men in capacity, do not men equally differ from one another? |
55201 | * 456A* One woman has a gift of healing, another not; one is a musician, and another has no music in her nature? |
55201 | * 457A* And this is what the arts of music and gymnastic, when present in such manner as we have described, will accomplish? |
55201 | * 459B* And do you take the oldest or the youngest, or only those of ripe age? |
55201 | * 459C* Certainly, the same principle holds; but why does this involve any particular skill? |
55201 | * 460E* And what is the prime of life? |
55201 | * 463A* Our State like every other has rulers and subjects? |
55201 | * 467E* What do you mean? |
55201 | * 472E* Well, and were we not creating an ideal of a perfect State? |
55201 | * 473A* I want to know whether ideals are ever fully realized in language? |
55201 | * 473B* I am sure that I should be contented-- will not you? |
55201 | * 476A* And inasmuch as they are two, each of them is one? |
55201 | * 477E* And is opinion also a faculty? |
55201 | * 478D* And also to be within and between them? |
55201 | * 486B* Or can such an one account death fearful? |
55201 | * 486D* Then a soul which forgets can not be ranked among genuine philosophic natures; we must insist that the philosopher should have a good memory? |
55201 | * 490* Need I recall the original image of the philosopher? |
55201 | * 491E* And may we not say, Adeimantus, that the most gifted minds, when they are ill- educated, become pre- eminently bad? |
55201 | * 495* Are we not right in saying that the love of knowledge, no less than riches, may divert him? |
55201 | * 496* What will be the issue of such marriages? |
55201 | * 500* Will you say that the world is of another mind? |
55201 | * 501D* Why, where can they still find any ground for objection? |
55201 | * 503C* What do you mean? |
55201 | * 506B* And if we only have a guardian who has this knowledge our State will be perfectly ordered? |
55201 | * 507B* What? |
55201 | * 507C* And what is the organ with which we see the visible things? |
55201 | * 508B* Neither sight nor the eye in which sight resides is the sun? |
55201 | * 508D* But when they are directed towards objects on which the sun shines, they see clearly and there is sight in them? |
55201 | * 509B* In what point of view? |
55201 | * 519* Did you never observe how the mind of a clever rogue peers out of his eyes, and the more clearly he sees, the more evil he does? |
55201 | * 522A* Then that is not the knowledge which we are seeking to discover? |
55201 | * 522E* Can we deny that a warrior should have a knowledge of arithmetic? |
55201 | * 525B* And they appear to lead the mind towards truth? |
55201 | * 527D* And suppose we make astronomy the third-- what do you say? |
55201 | * 528* Now, will you appeal to mankind in general or to the philosopher? |
55201 | * 537B* At what age? |
55201 | * 539E* Would you say six or four years? |
55201 | * 540A* And how long is this stage of their lives to last? |
55201 | * 540D* Well, I said, and you would agree( would you not?) |
55201 | * 547B* And what do the Muses say next? |
55201 | * 550C* Then we have now, I said, the second form of government and the second type of character? |
55201 | * 551D* This, then, will be the first great defect of oligarchy? |
55201 | * 553E* And the avaricious, I said, is the oligarchical youth? |
55201 | * 557C* Then in this kind of State there will be the greatest variety of human natures? |
55201 | * 559A* We are not wrong therefore in calling them necessary? |
55201 | * 563C* Why not, as Aeschylus says, utter the word which rises to our lips? |
55201 | * 568E* And when these fail? |
55201 | * 571* Last of all comes the tyrannical man, about whom we have to enquire, Whence is he, and how does he live-- in happiness or in misery? |
55201 | * 571A* Last of all comes the tyrannical man; about whom we have once more to ask, how is he formed out of the democratical? |
55201 | * 576B* Also they are utterly unjust, if we were right in our notion of justice? |
55201 | * 577D* Then if the man is like the State, I said, must not the same rule prevail? |
55201 | * 578B* Reflecting upon these and similar evils, you held the tyrannical State to be the most miserable of States? |
55201 | * 582* Now, how shall we decide between them? |
55201 | * 582D* His experience, then, will enable him to judge better than any one? |
55201 | * 583E* Again, when pleasure ceases, that sort of rest or cessation will be painful? |
55201 | * 584A* But that which is neither was just now shown to be rest and not motion, and in a mean between them? |
55201 | * 584D* Shall I give you an illustration of them? |
55201 | * 584E* But if he were taken back again he would imagine, and truly imagine, that he was descending? |
55201 | * 588C* Of what sort? |
55201 | * 590* Would he not be worse than Eriphyle, who sold her husband''s life for a necklace? |
55201 | * 596A* Why not? |
55201 | * 596C* Who is he? |
55201 | * 597A* And what of the maker of the bed? |
55201 | * 601C* Am I not right? |
55201 | * 601D* That there are three arts which are concerned with all things: one which uses, another which makes, a third which imitates them? |
55201 | * 602C* And now tell me, I conjure you, has not imitation been shown by us to be concerned with that which is thrice removed from the truth? |
55201 | * 602E* And this, surely, must be the work of the calculating and rational principle in the soul? |
55201 | * 603A* Then that part of the soul which has an opinion contrary to measure is not the same with that which has an opinion in accordance with measure? |
55201 | * 604A* Tell me: will he be more likely to struggle and hold out against his sorrow when he is seen by his equals, or when he is alone? |
55201 | * 604E* And does not the latter-- I mean the rebellious principle-- furnish a great variety of materials for imitation? |
55201 | * 608E* Would you agree with me in thinking that the corrupting and destroying element is the evil, and the saving and improving element the good? |
55201 | --How would you answer him? |
55201 | --I would like to know whether he may be thought to imitate that which originally exists in nature, or only the creations of artists? |
55201 | --What defence will you make for us, my good Sir, against any one who offers these objections? |
55201 | ...* 332* He proceeds: What did Simonides mean by this saying of his? |
55201 | 300, 301]; the ideal ruler,_ ib._ 502:--Rulers of states; do they study their own interests? |
55201 | 364 D;--the just or the unjust, which is the more advantageous? |
55201 | 435 D.] To what do you refer? |
55201 | 464, 465;--is it possible? |
55201 | 6),''Whether the virtues are one or many?'' |
55201 | 601, 603, 605;--''the poets who were children and prophets of the gods''(? |
55201 | 835 C), especially when they have been licensed by custom and religion? |
55201 | A right noble thought[9]; but do you suppose that we{ 205} shall refrain from asking you what is this highest knowledge? |
55201 | A second and greater wave is rolling in-- community of wives and children; is this either expedient or possible? |
55201 | A state which is intermediate, and a sort of repose of the soul about either-- that is what you mean? |
55201 | Adeimantus added: Has no one told you of the torch- race on horseback in honour of the goddess which will take place in the evening? |
55201 | After this manner the democrat was generated out of the oligarch? |
55201 | Again, as to the devastation of Hellenic territory or the burning of houses, what is to be the practice? |
55201 | Again, has he greater experience of the pleasures of honour, or the lover of honour of the pleasures of wisdom? |
55201 | Again, is not the passionate element wholly set on ruling and conquering and getting fame? |
55201 | Again, pleasure and pain are motions, and the absence of them is rest;* 584* but if so, how can the absence of either of them be the other? |
55201 | All of whom will call one another citizens? |
55201 | All that would arise out of his ignorance of the true upper and middle and lower regions? |
55201 | Am I not right? |
55201 | Am I not right? |
55201 | Am I not right? |
55201 | Am I not right? |
55201 | And O my friend, I said, surely the gods are just? |
55201 | And a narrative it remains both in the speeches which the poet recites from time to time and in the intermediate passages? |
55201 | And again, if he is forgetful and retains nothing of what he learns, will he not be an empty vessel? |
55201 | And agreeably to this mode of thinking and speaking, were we not saying that they will have their pleasures and pains in common? |
55201 | And all arithmetic and calculation have to do with number? |
55201 | And also of the mental ones; his soul is to be full of spirit? |
55201 | And an art requiring as much attention as shoemaking? |
55201 | And another consideration has just occurred to me: You will remember that our young men are to be warrior athletes? |
55201 | And any difference which arises among them will be* 471A* regarded by them as discord only-- a quarrel among friends, which is not to be called a war? |
55201 | And anything which is infected by any of these evils is made evil, and at last wholly dissolves and dies? |
55201 | And are enemies also to receive what we owe to them? |
55201 | And are not their praises of tyranny alone a sufficient reason why we should exclude them from our State? |
55201 | And are suits decided on any other ground but that a man may neither take what is another''s, nor be deprived of what is his own? |
55201 | And are you going to run away before you have fairly taught or learned whether they are true or not? |
55201 | And are you stronger than all these? |
55201 | And as State is to State in virtue and happiness, so is man in relation to man? |
55201 | And as we are to have the best of guardians for our city, must they not be those who have most the character of guardians? |
55201 | And both pleasure and pain are motions of the soul, are they not? |
55201 | And both should be in harmony? |
55201 | And by contracts you mean partnerships? |
55201 | And can any one of those many things which are called by particular names be said to be this rather than not to be this? |
55201 | And can that which does no evil be a cause of evil? |
55201 | And can the just by justice make men unjust, or speaking* 335D* generally, can the good by virtue make them bad? |
55201 | And can there be anything better for the interests of the State than that the men and women of a State should be as good as possible? |
55201 | And can therefore neither be ignorance nor knowledge? |
55201 | And can you mention any pursuit of mankind in which the male sex has not all these gifts and qualities in a higher degree than the female? |
55201 | And democracy has her own good, of which the insatiable desire brings her to dissolution? |
55201 | And do I differ from you, he said, as to the importance of the enquiry? |
55201 | And do not good practices lead to virtue, and evil practices to vice? |
55201 | And do not the two styles, or the mixture of the two, comprehend all poetry, and every form of expression in words? |
55201 | And do the unjust appear to you to be wise and good? |
55201 | And do they not educate to perfection young and old, men and women alike, and fashion them after their own hearts? |
55201 | And do we know what we opine? |
55201 | And do you also agree, I said, in describing the dialectician as one who attains a conception of the essence of each thing? |
55201 | And do you breed from them all indifferently, or do you take care to breed from the best only? |
55201 | And do you consider truth to be akin to proportion or to disproportion? |
55201 | And do you not know, I said, that all mere opinions are bad, and the best of them blind? |
55201 | And do you suppose that I ask these questions with any design of injuring you in the argument? |
55201 | And do you wish to behold what is blind and crooked and* 506D* base, when others will tell you of brightness and beauty? |
55201 | And does not the analogy apply still more to the State? |
55201 | And does not the same hold also of the ridiculous? |
55201 | And does not the same principle hold in the sciences? |
55201 | And does not tyranny spring from democracy in the* 562B* same manner as democracy from oligarchy-- I mean, after a sort? |
55201 | And does the essence of the invariable partake of knowledge in the same degree as of essence? |
55201 | And dogs are deteriorated in the good qualities of dogs, and not of horses? |
55201 | And each art gives us a particular good and not merely a general one-- medicine, for example, gives us health; navigation, safety at sea, and so on? |
55201 | And each of them is such as his like is? |
55201 | And even to this are there not exceptions? |
55201 | And everything else on the style? |
55201 | And food and wisdom are the corresponding satisfactions of either? |
55201 | And from being a keeper of the law he is converted into a breaker of it? |
55201 | And good counsel is clearly a kind of knowledge, for not by ignorance, but by knowledge, do men counsel well? |
55201 | And has not the body itself less of truth and essence than the soul? |
55201 | And has not the eye an excellence? |
55201 | And has not the soul an excellence also? |
55201 | And have we not already condemned that State* 552* in which the same persons are warriors as well as shopkeepers? |
55201 | And he is good in as far as he is wise, and bad in as far as he is foolish? |
55201 | And he is the best guard of a camp who is best able to* 334A* steal a march upon the enemy? |
55201 | And he is to be deemed courageous whose spirit retains in* 442C* pleasure and in pain the commands of reason about what he ought or ought not to fear? |
55201 | And he who is most skilful in preventing or escaping[2] from a disease is best able to create one? |
55201 | And he who is not on a voyage has no need of a pilot? |
55201 | And here, Glaucon, I should like to ask( as I know that you are a breeder of birds and animals), Do you not take the greatest care in the mating? |
55201 | And his friends and fellow- citizens will want to use him as he gets older for their own purposes? |
55201 | And how am I to convince you, he said, if you are not already convinced by what I have just said; what more can I do for you? |
55201 | And how am I to do so? |
55201 | And how are they to be learned without education? |
55201 | And how can one who is thus circumstanced ever become a philosopher? |
55201 | And how can we rightly answer that question? |
55201 | And how does such an one live? |
55201 | And how does the son come into being? |
55201 | And how is the error to be corrected? |
55201 | And how will they proceed? |
55201 | And how would he regard the attempt to gain an advantage over the unjust; would that be considered by him as just or unjust? |
55201 | And if care was not taken in the breeding, your dogs and birds would greatly deteriorate? |
55201 | And if merchandise is to be carried over the sea, skilful* 371B* sailors will also be needed, and in considerable numbers? |
55201 | And if our youth are to do their work in life, must they not make these graces and harmonies their perpetual aim? |
55201 | And if that is true, what sort of general must he have been? |
55201 | And if the old man and woman fight for their own, what then, my friend? |
55201 | And if the world perceives that what we are saying about* 500E* him is the truth, will they be angry with philosophy? |
55201 | And if there be any State in which rulers and subjects* 431E* will be agreed as to the question who are to rule, that again will be our State? |
55201 | And if they are both known to them, one must be the friend and the other the enemy of the gods, as we admitted from the beginning? |
55201 | And if they are to be what we were describing, is there* 485C* not another quality which they should also possess? |
55201 | And if they turn out to be two, is not each of them one and different? |
55201 | And if they were able to converse with one another, would they not suppose that they were naming what was actually before them[1]? |
55201 | And ignorance and folly are inanitions of the soul? |
55201 | And in like manner does the touch adequately perceive the qualities of thickness or thinness, of softness or hardness? |
55201 | And in oligarchical States, from the general spread of carelessness and extravagance, men of good family have often been reduced to beggary? |
55201 | And in our State what other name besides that of citizens do the people give the rulers? |
55201 | And in our opinion the guardians ought to have both these qualities? |
55201 | And in such a case what is one to say? |
55201 | And in that case they will be right in doing good to the evil and* 334D* evil to the good? |
55201 | And in that interval there has now been discovered something which we call opinion? |
55201 | And in the first place, he will honour studies which impress these qualities on his soul and will disregard others? |
55201 | And in the laying of bricks and stones is the just man a more useful or better partner than the builder? |
55201 | And in what sort of actions or with a view to what result is the just man most able to do harm to his enemy and good to his friend? |
55201 | And is he likely to be brave who has no spirit, whether horse or dog or any other animal? |
55201 | And is justice dimmer in the individual, and is her form different, or is she the same which we found her to be in the State? |
55201 | And is not a State larger than an individual? |
55201 | And is not a similar method to be pursued about the virtues, which are also four in number? |
55201 | And is not life to be reckoned among the ends of the soul? |
55201 | And is not that farthest from reason which is at the greatest distance from law and order? |
55201 | And is not the end of the soul happiness, and justice the excellence of the soul by which happiness is attained? |
55201 | And is not the love of learning the love of wisdom, which is philosophy? |
55201 | And is not the reason of this that the several principles, whether in the state or in the individual, do their own business? |
55201 | And is not the unjust like the wise and good and the just unlike them? |
55201 | And is not this the reason why of old love has been called a tyrant? |
55201 | And is our theory a worse theory because we are unable to{ 170} prove the possibility of a city being ordered in the manner described? |
55201 | And is the art of war one of those arts in which she can or can not share? |
55201 | And is the city which is under a tyrant rich or poor? |
55201 | And is the satisfaction derived from that which has less or from that which has more existence the truer? |
55201 | And is there any greater or keener pleasure than that of sensual love? |
55201 | And is there any man in whom you will find more of this sort of misery than in the tyrannical man, who is in a fury of passions and desires? |
55201 | And is there anything more akin to wisdom than truth? |
55201 | And is this confined to the sight only, or does it extend to the hearing also, relating in fact to what we term poetry? |
55201 | And it has this particular quality because it has an object of a particular kind; and this is true of the other arts and sciences? |
55201 | And literature may be either true or false? |
55201 | And luxury and softness are blamed, because they relax and weaken this same creature, and make a coward of him? |
55201 | And may not the many which are doubles be also halves?--doubles, that is, of one thing, and halves of another? |
55201 | And may we not rightly call such men treacherous? |
55201 | And may we not say of the philosopher that he is a lover, not of a part of wisdom only, but of the whole? |
55201 | And may we not say that the mind of the one who knows has knowledge, and that the mind of the other, who opines only, has opinion? |
55201 | And may we not say the same of all things? |
55201 | And might a man be thirsty, and yet unwilling to drink? |
55201 | And must not an animal be a lover of learning who determines what he likes and dislikes by the test of knowledge and ignorance? |
55201 | And must not such a State and such a man be always full of fear? |
55201 | And must not the like happen with the spirited or passionate element of the soul? |
55201 | And must not the soul be perplexed at this intimation which the sense gives of a hard which is also soft? |
55201 | And must not the tyrannical man be like the tyrannical State, and the democratical man like the democratical State; and the same of the others? |
55201 | And must not we swim and try to reach the shore: we will hope that Arion''s dolphin or some other miraculous help may save us? |
55201 | And next, how does he live? |
55201 | And next, shall we enquire whether the kindred science also concerns us? |
55201 | And no good thing is hurtful? |
55201 | And not- being is not one thing but, properly speaking,* 478C* nothing? |
55201 | And now what is their manner of life, and what sort of* 557B* a government have they? |
55201 | And now what remains of the work of legislation? |
55201 | And now why do you not praise me? |
55201 | And now, Adeimantus, is our State matured and perfected? |
55201 | And of individuals who consort with the mob and seek to please them? |
55201 | And of the objects which are being carried in like manner they would only see the shadows? |
55201 | And of the pleasures of love, and all other pleasures, the same holds good? |
55201 | And of the unjust may not the opposite be supposed? |
55201 | And of truth in the same degree? |
55201 | And once more, the inharmonious and unseemly nature can only tend to disproportion? |
55201 | And one woman has a turn for gymnastic and military exercises, and another is unwarlike and hates gymnastics? |
55201 | And one woman is a philosopher, and another is an enemy of philosophy; one has spirit, and another is without spirit? |
55201 | And opinion is to have an opinion? |
55201 | And ought not the same natures to have the same pursuits? |
55201 | And our guardian is both warrior and philosopher? |
55201 | And reasoning is peculiarly his instrument? |
55201 | And shall I add,''whether seen or unseen by gods and men''? |
55201 | And should an immortal being seriously think of this little* 608D* space rather than of the whole? |
55201 | And should we not enquire what sort of knowledge has the* 521D* power of effecting such a change? |
55201 | And so let us have a final trial and proclamation; need we hire a herald, or shall I proclaim the result? |
55201 | And so of all other things;--justice is useful when they are useless, and useless when they are useful? |
55201 | And so of the other senses; do they give perfect intimations of such matters? |
55201 | And so they will be drawn by a necessity of their natures to have intercourse with each other-- necessity is not too strong a word, I think? |
55201 | And so tyranny naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme form of liberty? |
55201 | And still there arises another question: Are friends to be interpreted as real or seeming; enemies as real or seeming? |
55201 | And such a pilot and ruler will provide and prescribe for the interest of the sailor who is under him, and not for his own or the ruler''s interest? |
55201 | And suppose injustice abiding in a single person, would your wisdom say that she loses or that she retains her natural power? |
55201 | And surely, he said, this occurs notably in the case of one; for we see the same thing to be both one and infinite in multitude? |
55201 | And that human virtue is justice? |
55201 | And that others should approve, of what we approve, is no miracle or impossibility? |
55201 | And that to which an end is appointed has also an excellence? |
55201 | And that which hurts not does no evil? |
55201 | And that which is not hurtful hurts not? |
55201 | And that which is opposed to them is one of the inferior principles of the soul? |
55201 | And the anticipations of future pleasures and pains are of a like nature? |
55201 | And the better part of the soul is likely to be that which trusts to measure and calculation? |
55201 | And the citizens being thus agreed among themselves, in which class will temperance be found-- in the rulers or in the subjects? |
55201 | And the country which was enough to support the original inhabitants will be too small now, and not enough? |
55201 | And the ear has an end and an excellence also? |
55201 | And the end or use of a horse or of anything would be that which could not be accomplished, or not so well accomplished, by any other thing? |
55201 | And the fairest is also the loveliest? |
55201 | And the friend he regards and describes as one in whom* 463C* he has an interest, and the other as a stranger in whom he has no interest? |
55201 | And the good is advantageous? |
55201 | And the government is the ruling power in each state? |
55201 | And the greater the interval which separates them from philosophy and reason, the more strange and illusive will be the pleasure? |
55201 | And the greatest degree of evil- doing to one''s own city would be termed by you injustice? |
55201 | And the higher the duties of the guardian, I said, the more* 374E* time, and skill, and art, and application will be needed by him? |
55201 | And the individual will be acknowledged by us to be just in the same way in which the State is just? |
55201 | And the inharmonious is cowardly and boorish? |
55201 | And the insatiable desire of wealth and the neglect of all other things for the sake of money- getting was also the ruin of oligarchy? |
55201 | And the interest of any art is the perfection of it-- this and nothing else? |
55201 | And the just is the good? |
55201 | And the kinds of knowledge in a State are many and diverse? |
55201 | And the knowing is wise? |
55201 | And the laws which they make must be obeyed by their subjects,--and that is what you call justice? |
55201 | And the lover of honour-- what will be his opinion? |
55201 | And the lustful and tyrannical desires are, as we saw, at the* 587B* greatest distance? |
55201 | And the man who has the spirit of harmony will be most in love with the loveliest; but he will not love him who is of an inharmonious soul? |
55201 | And the melody and rhythm will depend upon the words? |
55201 | And the more detestable his actions are to the citizens the more satellites and the greater devotion in them will he require? |
55201 | And the more hated he is, the more he will require trusty guards; but how will he obtain them? |
55201 | And the much greater to the much less? |
55201 | And the new government which thus arises will be of a form intermediate between oligarchy and aristocracy? |
55201 | And the oligarch is third from the royal; since we count* 587D* as one royal and aristocratical? |
55201 | And the painter too is, as I conceive, just such another-- a creator of appearances, is he not? |
55201 | And the persons whose property is taken from them are compelled to defend themselves before the people as they best can? |
55201 | And the pilot likewise, in the strict sense of the term, is a ruler of sailors and not a mere sailor? |
55201 | And the pilot-- that is to say, the true pilot-- is he a captain of sailors or a mere sailor? |
55201 | And the possibility has been acknowledged? |
55201 | And the power which the eye possesses is a sort of effluence which is dispensed from the sun? |
55201 | And the reason of this, over and above the general constitution of the State, will be that the guardians will have a community of women and children? |
55201 | And the reason why the good are useless has now been explained? |
55201 | And the result will be that he becomes a worse potter? |
55201 | And the royal and orderly desires are nearest? |
55201 | And the same is true of all other things; they have each of them an end and a special excellence? |
55201 | And the same of horses and animals in general? |
55201 | And the sometime greater to the sometime less, and the greater that is to be to the less that is to be? |
55201 | And the tragic poet is an imitator, and therefore, like all other imitators, he is thrice removed from the king and from the truth? |
55201 | And the unjust is good and wise, and the just is neither? |
55201 | And the unjust man will strive and struggle to obtain more than the unjust man or action, in order that he may have more than all? |
55201 | And the virtue which enters into this competition is* 433E* justice? |
55201 | And the wise is good? |
55201 | And the work of the painter is a third? |
55201 | And then, although they may have no desire of change, the others charge them with plotting against the people and being friends of oligarchy? |
55201 | And there are three kinds of pleasure, which are their several objects? |
55201 | And there is a neutral state which is neither pleasure nor pain? |
55201 | And therefore he will not sorrow for his departed friend as though he had suffered anything terrible? |
55201 | And therefore philosophers must inevitably fall under the censure of the world? |
55201 | And therefore the cause of well- being? |
55201 | And therefore they are likely to do harm to our young men-- you would agree with me there? |
55201 | And therefore to acknowledge that bad and good are the same? |
55201 | And they will place them under the command of experienced veterans who will be their leaders and teachers? |
55201 | And they will take them on the safe expeditions and be cautious about the dangerous ones? |
55201 | And things great and small, heavy and light, as they are termed, will not be denoted by these any more than by the opposite names? |
55201 | And this assimilation of himself to another, either by the use of voice or gesture, is the imitation of the person whose character he assumes? |
55201 | And this is because injustice creates divisions and hatreds and fighting, and justice imparts harmony and friendship; is not that true, Thrasymachus? |
55201 | And this is equally true of imitation; no one man can imitate many things as well as he would imitate a single one? |
55201 | And those who govern ought not to be lovers of the task? |
55201 | And to this end they ought to be wise and efficient, and to have a special care of the State? |
55201 | And to which class do unity and number belong? |
55201 | And was I not right, Adeimantus? |
55201 | And was I not right? |
55201 | And we have admitted that justice is the excellence of the soul, and injustice the defect of the soul? |
55201 | And we have admitted, I said, that the good of each art is specially confined to the art? |
55201 | And what about* 598A* the painter? |
55201 | And what are these? |
55201 | And what do the rulers call one another in other States? |
55201 | And what do the rulers call the people? |
55201 | And what do they call them in other States? |
55201 | And what do they receive of men? |
55201 | And what do you say to his receiving the right hand of fellowship? |
55201 | And what does the judge affirm to be the life which is next, and the pleasure which is next? |
55201 | And what due or proper thing is given by cookery, and to what? |
55201 | And what happens? |
55201 | And what in ours? |
55201 | And what is that which justice gives, and to whom? |
55201 | And what is the faculty in man to which imitation is addressed? |
55201 | And what is the name which the city derives from the possession of this sort of knowledge? |
55201 | And what is the next question? |
55201 | And what is this knowledge, and among whom is it found? |
55201 | And what is your view about them? |
55201 | And what manner of government do you term oligarchy? |
55201 | And what manner of man answers to such a State? |
55201 | And what may that be? |
55201 | And what of passion, or spirit? |
55201 | And what of the ignorant? |
55201 | And what of the unjust-- does he claim to have more than the just man and to do more than is just? |
55201 | And what shall be their education? |
55201 | And what shall we say about men? |
55201 | And what shall we say of men? |
55201 | And what shall we say of the carpenter-- is not he also the maker of the bed? |
55201 | And what similar use or power of acquisition has justice in time of peace? |
55201 | And what then would you say? |
55201 | And what training will draw the soul upwards? |
55201 | And when all the world is telling a man that he is six feet high, and he has no measure, how can he believe anything else? |
55201 | And when persons are suffering from acute pain, you must have heard them say that there is nothing pleasanter than to get rid of their pain? |
55201 | And when they meet in private will not people be* 556E* saying to one another''Our warriors are not good for much''? |
55201 | And when truth is the captain, we can not suspect any evil of the band which he leads? |
55201 | And when you see the same evils in the tyrannical man, what do you say of him? |
55201 | And when you speak of music, do you include literature or not? |
55201 | And when you want to buy a ship, the shipwright or the pilot would be better? |
55201 | And where do you find them? |
55201 | And where freedom is, the individual is clearly able to order for himself his own life as he pleases? |
55201 | And which are the soft or drinking harmonies? |
55201 | And which are these two sorts? |
55201 | And which is wise and which is foolish? |
55201 | And which method do I understand you to prefer? |
55201 | And which of the three has the truest knowledge and the widest experience? |
55201 | And which sort of life, Glaucon, do you prefer? |
55201 | And which, I said, of the gods in heaven would you say was the lord of this element? |
55201 | And whichever of these qualities we find in the State, the one which is not found will be the residue? |
55201 | And who are the devoted band, and where will he procure them? |
55201 | And who is best able to do good to his friends and evil to his enemies in time of sickness? |
55201 | And will he sell his own fairer and diviner part without any compunction to the most godless and foul? |
55201 | And will he then change himself for the better and fairer, or for the worse and more unsightly? |
55201 | And will not a true astronomer have the same feeling when he looks at the movements of the stars? |
55201 | And will not he who has been shown to be the wickedest,* 576C* be also the most miserable? |
55201 | And will not the city, which you are founding, be an Hellenic city? |
55201 | And will not the same condition be best for our citizens? |
55201 | And will not the words and the character of the style depend on the temper of the soul? |
55201 | And will not their wives be the best women? |
55201 | And will the blindness and crookedness of opinion content you when you might have the light and certainty of science? |
55201 | And will the love of a lie be any part of a philosopher''s nature? |
55201 | And will they be a class which is rarely found? |
55201 | And will they not be lovers of Hellas, and think of Hellas as their own land, and share in the common temples? |
55201 | And will you be so very good as to answer one more question? |
55201 | And will you have a work better done when the workman has many occupations, or when he has only one? |
55201 | And with the hearing, I said, we hear, and with the other senses perceive the other objects of sense? |
55201 | And would not a really good education furnish the best safeguard? |
55201 | And would you call justice vice? |
55201 | And would you have the future rulers of your ideal State intelligent beings, or stupid as posts? |
55201 | And would you say that the soul of such an one is the soul of a freeman, or of a slave? |
55201 | And yet not so well as with a pruning- hook made for the purpose? |
55201 | And yet there is a sense in which the painter also creates a bed? |
55201 | And yet you were acknowledging a little while ago that knowledge is not the same as opinion? |
55201 | And yet, as you see, there are freemen as well as masters in such a State? |
55201 | And you are aware too that the latter can not explain what they mean by knowledge, but are obliged after all to say knowledge of the good? |
55201 | And you know that a man who is deranged and not right in his mind, will fancy that he is able to rule, not only over men, but also over the gods? |
55201 | And you may further imagine that his instructor is pointing to the objects as they pass and requiring him to name them,--will he not be perplexed? |
55201 | And you placed astronomy next, and then you made a step backward? |
55201 | And you would say the same sort of thing of the physician? |
55201 | And, conversely, that which has less of truth will also have less of essence? |
55201 | Another question is, Which of existing states is suited to her? |
55201 | Any affinity to wantonness and intemperance? |
55201 | Any more than heat can produce cold? |
55201 | Any more than they can be rhapsodists and actors at once? |
55201 | Are not the chief elements of temperance, speaking* 389E* generally, obedience to commanders and self- control in sensual pleasures? |
55201 | Are not the public who say these things* 492B* the greatest of all Sophists? |
55201 | Are not the tragic poets wise who magnify and exalt the tyrant, and say that he is wise by association with the wise? |
55201 | Are not these functions proper to the soul, and can they rightly be assigned to any other? |
55201 | Are the lovers of sights and sounds, who let out their ears to every chorus at the Dionysiac festivals, to be called philosophers?'' |
55201 | Are they two or one, and is either of them the cause of the other? |
55201 | Are you not aware, I said, that the soul of man is immortal and imperishable? |
55201 | Are you satisfied then that the quality which makes such men and such states is justice, or do you hope to discover some other? |
55201 | As being the same with knowledge, or another faculty? |
55201 | As they are or as they appear? |
55201 | At any rate you can tell that a song or ode has three* 398D* parts-- the words, the melody, and the rhythm; that degree of knowledge I may presuppose? |
55201 | Because I want to know in which of the three classes you would place justice? |
55201 | Because it has a particular quality which no other has? |
55201 | Beds, then, are of three kinds, and there are three artists who superintend them: God, the maker of the bed, and the painter? |
55201 | Beginning with the State, I replied, would you say that a city which is governed by a tyrant is free or enslaved? |
55201 | Being is the sphere or subject- matter of knowledge, and knowledge is to know the nature of being? |
55201 | But again, will they tell us that such a nature, placed under favourable circumstances, will not be perfectly good and wise if any ever was? |
55201 | But although the gods are themselves unchangeable, still by witchcraft and deception they may make us think that they appear in various forms? |
55201 | But are not these spirited natures apt to be savage with one another, and with everybody else? |
55201 | But are they really three or one? |
55201 | But can any of these reasons apply to God? |
55201 | But can that which is neither become both? |
55201 | But can the musician by his art make men unmusical? |
55201 | But can you persuade us, if we refuse to listen to you? |
55201 | But can you tell me of any other suitable study? |
55201 | But can you use different animals for the same purpose, unless they are bred and fed in the same way? |
55201 | But did we not say, Thrasymachus, that the unjust goes beyond both his like and unlike? |
55201 | But do you imagine that men who are unable to give and take a reason will have the knowledge which we require of them? |
55201 | But do you know whom I think good? |
55201 | But do you mean to say that this is not the opinion of the multitude? |
55201 | But do you not admire their cleverness? |
55201 | But do you not see that there is a sense in which you could do the same? |
55201 | But do you observe the reason of this? |
55201 | But do you see, he rejoined, how many we are? |
55201 | But does the painter know the right form of the bit and reins? |
55201 | But have we not here fallen into a contradiction? |
55201 | But he may have friends who are senseless or mad? |
55201 | But he would claim to exceed the non- musician? |
55201 | But he would wish to go beyond the non- physician? |
55201 | But how did timocracy arise out of the perfect State? |
55201 | But how is the image applicable to the disciples of philosophy? |
55201 | But how* 461D* will they know who are fathers and daughters, and so on? |
55201 | But if so, the tyrant will live most unpleasantly, and the king most pleasantly? |
55201 | But if the process by which we are supposed to arrive at the idea of good be really imaginary, may not the idea itself be also a mere abstraction? |
55201 | But if they abstained from injuring one another, then they might act together better? |
55201 | But in what way good or harm? |
55201 | But is a man in harmony with himself when he is the subject of these conflicting influences? |
55201 | But is not this unjust? |
55201 | But is opinion to be sought without and beyond either of them, in a greater clearness than knowledge, or in a greater darkness than ignorance? |
55201 | But is passion a third principle, or akin to desire? |
55201 | But is such a community possible?--as among the animals, so{ lxxv} also among men; and if possible, in what way possible? |
55201 | But is there no difference between men and women? |
55201 | But is there not another name which people give to their rulers in other States? |
55201 | But is this equally true of the greatness and smallness of the fingers? |
55201 | But let me ask you another question: Has excess of pleasure any affinity to temperance? |
55201 | But may he not change and transform himself? |
55201 | But may not the stimulus which love has given to fancy be some day exhausted? |
55201 | But next, what shall we say of their food; for the men are in training for the great contest of all-- are they not? |
55201 | But ought the just to injure any one at all? |
55201 | But ought we to attempt to construct one? |
55201 | But ought we to render evil for evil at all, when to do so will only make men more evil? |
55201 | But shall we be right in getting rid of them? |
55201 | But should not life rest on the moral rather than upon the physical? |
55201 | But suppose that he were to retort,''Thrasymachus, what do you mean? |
55201 | But surely God and the things of God are in every way perfect? |
55201 | But surely, Thrasymachus, the arts are the superiors and rulers of their own subjects? |
55201 | But the condiments are only necessary in so far as they are good for health? |
55201 | But the good are just and would not do an injustice? |
55201 | But the philosopher will still be justified in asking,''How may the heavenly gift of poesy be devoted to the good of mankind?'' |
55201 | But those who see the absolute and eternal and immutable may be said to know, and not to have opinion only? |
55201 | But we should like to ask him a question: Does he who has knowledge know something or nothing? |
55201 | But what branch of knowledge is there, my dear Glaucon, which is of the desired nature; since all the useful arts were reckoned mean by us? |
55201 | But what can show a more disgraceful state of education than to have to go abroad for justice because you have none of your own at home? |
55201 | But what do you mean by the highest of all knowledge? |
55201 | But what do you say of music, which also entered to a certain extent into our former scheme? |
55201 | But what do you say to flute- makers and flute- players? |
55201 | But what if there are no gods? |
55201 | But what is the next step? |
55201 | But what of the world below? |
55201 | But what ought to be their course? |
55201 | But what shall be done to the hero? |
55201 | But what shall their education be? |
55201 | But what will be the process of delineation?'' |
55201 | But what would you have, Glaucon? |
55201 | But when a man is well, my dear Polemarchus, there is no need of a physician? |
55201 | But when is this fault committed? |
55201 | But whence came division? |
55201 | But where are the two? |
55201 | But where, amid all this, is justice? |
55201 | But which is the happier? |
55201 | But which stories do you mean, he said; and what fault do you find with them? |
55201 | But who are friends and enemies?] |
55201 | But who can doubt that philosophers should be chosen, if they have the other qualities which are required in a ruler? |
55201 | But why do you ask? |
55201 | But why do you ask? |
55201 | But why* 533E* should we dispute about names when we have realities of such importance to consider? |
55201 | But why? |
55201 | But will he not desire to get them on the spot? |
55201 | But will the imitator have either? |
55201 | But will you let me assume, without reciting them, that these things are true? |
55201 | But would any of your guardians think or speak of any other guardian as a stranger? |
55201 | But would you call the painter a creator and maker? |
55201 | But you see that without the addition of some other nature there is no seeing or being seen? |
55201 | But* 501A* how will they draw out the plan of which you are speaking? |
55201 | But, if Homer never did any public service, was he privately a guide or teacher of any? |
55201 | By heaven, would not such an one be a rare educator? |
55201 | Can I say what I do not know? |
55201 | Can a man help imitating that with which he holds reverential converse? |
55201 | Can any man be courageous who has the fear of death in him? |
55201 | Can any other origin of a State be imagined? |
55201 | Can any reality come up to the idea? |
55201 | Can he have an opinion which is an opinion about nothing? |
55201 | Can justice produce injustice any more than the art of horsemanship{ xix} can make bad horsemen, or heat produce cold? |
55201 | Can sight adequately perceive them? |
55201 | Can the god of Jealousy himself* 487* find any fault with such an assemblage of good qualities? |
55201 | Can the same nature be a lover of wisdom and a lover of* 485D* falsehood? |
55201 | Can there be any greater evil than discord and distraction* 462B* and plurality where unity ought to reign? |
55201 | Can they have a better place than between being and not- being? |
55201 | Can we any longer doubt, then, that the miser and money- maker* 555B* answers to the oligarchical State? |
55201 | Can we suppose that he is ignorant of antiquity, and therefore has recourse to invention? |
55201 | Can you tell me what imitation is? |
55201 | Can you tell me whence I derive this inference? |
55201 | Capital, I said; but let me ask you once more: Shall they* 463D* be a family in name only; or shall they in all their actions be true to the name? |
55201 | Deteriorated, that is to say, in the good qualities of horses, not of dogs? |
55201 | Did he mean that I was to give back arms to a madman? |
55201 | Did this never strike you as curious? |
55201 | Did you ever hear any of them which were not? |
55201 | Did you never hear it? |
55201 | Did you never observe in the arts how the potters''boys look on and help, long before they touch the wheel? |
55201 | Do I take you with me? |
55201 | Do they by attaching to the soul and inhering in her at last bring her to death, and so separate her from the body? |
55201 | Do we admit the existence of opinion? |
55201 | Do you agree? |
55201 | Do you know of any other? |
55201 | Do you know where you will have to look if you want to discover his rogueries? |
55201 | Do you know, I said, that governments vary as the dispositions of men vary, and that there must be as many of the one as there are of the other? |
55201 | Do you mean that there is no such maker or creator, or that in one sense there might be a maker of all these things but in another not? |
55201 | Do you mean, for example, that he who is mistaken about the sick is a physician in that he is mistaken? |
55201 | Do you not know that all this is but the prelude to the actual strain which we have to learn? |
55201 | Do you not know that the soul is immortal? |
55201 | Do you not know, I said, that the true lie, if such an expression may be allowed, is hated of gods and men? |
55201 | Do you not see them doing the same? |
55201 | Do you observe that we were not far wrong in our guess that temperance was a sort of harmony? |
55201 | Do you remember? |
55201 | Do you see that there is a way in which you could make them all yourself? |
55201 | Do you suppose that I call him who is mistaken the stronger at the time when he is mistaken? |
55201 | Do you think it right that Hellenes should enslave Hellenic States, or allow others to enslave them, if they can help? |
55201 | Do you think that the possession of all other things is of any value if we do not possess the good? |
55201 | Do you think that there is anything so very unnatural or inexcusable in their case? |
55201 | Does he not call the other pleasures necessary, under the idea that if there were no necessity for them, he would rather not have them? |
55201 | Does not like always attract like? |
55201 | Does not the practice of* 469D* despoiling an enemy afford an excuse for not facing the battle? |
55201 | Does not the timocratical man change into the oligarchical on this wise? |
55201 | Does that look well? |
55201 | Does the injustice or other evil which exists in the soul waste and consume her? |
55201 | Does the just man try to gain any advantage over the just? |
55201 | Each of them, I said, is such as his like is? |
55201 | Enough of gods and heroes;--what shall we say about men? |
55201 | Enough, my friend; but what is enough while anything remains wanting? |
55201 | Every act does something to somebody; and following this analogy, Socrates asks, What is this due and proper thing which justice does, and to whom? |
55201 | Except a city?--or would you include a city? |
55201 | First of all, in regard to slavery? |
55201 | First you began with a geometry of plane surfaces? |
55201 | First, then, they resemble one another in the value which they set upon wealth? |
55201 | For all these things are only the prelude, and you surely do not suppose that a mere mathematician is also a dialectician? |
55201 | For concerning political measures, we chiefly ask: How will they affect the happiness of mankind? |
55201 | For example, I said, can the same thing be at rest and in motion at the same time in the same part? |
55201 | For if Agamemnon could not count his feet( and without number how could he?) |
55201 | For what purpose do you conceive that we have come here, said Thrasymachus,--to look for gold, or to hear discourse? |
55201 | For which the art has to consider and provide? |
55201 | For you surely would not* 531E* regard the skilled mathematician as a dialectician? |
55201 | Further, I said, has not a drunken man also the spirit of* 573C* a tyrant? |
55201 | Further, the very faculty which is the instrument of judgment is not possessed by the covetous or ambitious man, but only by the philosopher? |
55201 | Further, there can be no doubt that a work is spoilt when not done at the right time? |
55201 | God forbid, I replied; but may I ask you to consider the image in another point of view? |
55201 | Good, I said; then you call him who is third in the descent from nature an imitator? |
55201 | Government, forms of, are they administered in the interest of the rulers? |
55201 | Has not nature scattered all the qualities which our citizens require indifferently up and down among the two sexes? |
55201 | Has not that been admitted? |
55201 | Has not the intemperate been censured of old, because in{ 304} him the huge multiform monster is allowed to be too much at large? |
55201 | Have I clearly explained the class which I mean? |
55201 | Have we not here a picture of his way of life? |
55201 | Having effected this, they will proceed to trace an outline of the constitution? |
55201 | Having so many evils, will not the most miserable of men be still more miserable in a public station? |
55201 | He asks only''What good have they done?'' |
55201 | He can hardly avoid saying Yes-- can he now? |
55201 | He is a soldier, and, like Adeimantus, has been{ xiii} distinguished at the battle of Megara( 368 A, anno 456?)... |
55201 | He knows that this latter institution is not more than four or five thousand years old: may not the end revert to the beginning? |
55201 | He looked at me in astonishment, and said: No, by heaven: And are you really prepared to maintain this? |
55201 | He mentioned that he was present when one of the spirits asked another,''Where is Ardiaeus the Great?'' |
55201 | He roared out to the whole company: What folly, Socrates, has taken possession of you all? |
55201 | He said: Who then are the true philosophers? |
55201 | He was present when one of the spirits asked-- Where is Ardiaeus the Great? |
55201 | He will grow more and more indolent and careless? |
55201 | Hence arises the question,''What is great, what is small?'' |
55201 | How can that be? |
55201 | How can that be? |
55201 | How can there be? |
55201 | How can they, he said, if they are blind and can not see? |
55201 | How can they, he said, when they are not allowed to apply their minds to the callings of any of these? |
55201 | How can we? |
55201 | How cast off? |
55201 | How do they act? |
55201 | How do you distinguish them? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How do you mean? |
55201 | How is he to be wise and also innocent? |
55201 | How many? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How so? |
55201 | How then can men and women have the same? |
55201 | How then does a protector begin to change into a tyrant? |
55201 | How was that? |
55201 | How will they proceed? |
55201 | How would they address us? |
55201 | How, then, can we be right in supposing that the absence of pain is pleasure, or that the absence of pleasure is pain? |
55201 | How? |
55201 | How? |
55201 | How? |
55201 | How? |
55201 | How? |
55201 | I assume, I said, that the tyrant is in the third place from the oligarch; the democrat was in the middle? |
55201 | I do not know, do you? |
55201 | I might say the same of the ears; when deprived of their own proper excellence they can not fulfil their end? |
55201 | I presume then that you are going to make one of the interdicted answers? |
55201 | I proceeded to ask: When two things, a greater and less, are called by the same name, are they like or unlike in so far as they are called the same? |
55201 | I replied; and if we asked him what due or proper thing is given by medicine, and to whom, what answer do you think that he would make to us? |
55201 | I said; how shall we find a gentle nature which has also a great spirit, for the one is the contradiction of the other? |
55201 | I said; the prelude or what? |
55201 | I should like to know whether you have the same notion which I have of this study? |
55201 | I suppose that you would call justice virtue and injustice vice? |
55201 | I will be wiser now and acknowledge that we must go to the bottom of another question: What is to be the education of our guardians? |
55201 | I will explain: The body which is large when seen near, appears small when seen at a distance? |
55201 | I will proceed by asking a question: Would you not say that a horse has some end? |
55201 | I will; and first tell me, Do you admit that it is just for subjects to obey their rulers? |
55201 | Ideal state, is it possible? |
55201 | If wealth and gain were the criterion, then the praise or* 582E* blame of the lover of gain would surely be the most trustworthy? |
55201 | Imitation is only a kind of play or sport, and the tragic poets, whether they write in Iambic or in Heroic verse, are imitators in the highest degree? |
55201 | In prescribing meats and drinks would he wish to go beyond another physician or beyond the practice of medicine? |
55201 | In the first place, are they not free; and is not the city full of freedom and frankness-- a man may say and do what he likes? |
55201 | In the next place our youth must be temperate? |
55201 | In these cases a man is not compelled to ask of thought the question what is a finger? |
55201 | In this both Plato and Khèyam rise above the level of many Christian(?) |
55201 | In what manner? |
55201 | In what manner? |
55201 | In what particulars? |
55201 | In what respect do you mean? |
55201 | In what respect? |
55201 | In what respects? |
55201 | In what way make allowance? |
55201 | In what way shown? |
55201 | In what way? |
55201 | Including the art of war? |
55201 | Indeed, Thrasymachus, and do I really appear to you to argue like an informer? |
55201 | Is God above or below the idea of good? |
55201 | Is any better than experience and wisdom and reason? |
55201 | Is any better than the old- fashioned sort which is comprehended under the name of music and gymnastic? |
55201 | Is he not a true image of the State which he represents? |
55201 | Is it a third, or akin to one of the preceding? |
55201 | Is it desirable?'' |
55201 | Is it for this that we are asked to throw away the civilization which is the growth of ages? |
55201 | Is it not on this wise?--The good at which such a State aims is to become as rich as possible, a desire which is insatiable? |
55201 | Is not Polemarchus your heir? |
55201 | Is not absolute injustice absolute weakness also? |
55201 | Is not honesty the best policy? |
55201 | Is not that still more disgraceful? |
55201 | Is not that true, Thrasymachus? |
55201 | Is not the Republic the vehicle of three or four great truths which, to Plato''s own mind, are most naturally represented in the form of the State? |
55201 | Is not the double also the half, and are not heavy and light relative terms which pass into one another? |
55201 | Is not the noble that which subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the God in man; the ignoble, that which subjects the man to the beast? |
55201 | Is not the noble youth very like a well- bred dog in respect of guarding and watching? |
55201 | Is not the strength of injustice only a remnant of justice? |
55201 | Is not this the case? |
55201 | Is not this the way-- he is the son of the miserly and oligarchical* 558D* father who has trained him in his own habits? |
55201 | Is not this true? |
55201 | Is not this unavoidable? |
55201 | Is not to have lost the truth an evil, and to possess the truth a good? |
55201 | Is that true? |
55201 | Is the relation between them one of mutual antagonism or of mutual harmony? |
55201 | Is there any State in which you will find more of lamentation and sorrow and groaning and pain? |
55201 | Is there any better criterion than experience and knowledge? |
55201 | Is there any city which he might name? |
55201 | Is there any other virtue remaining which can compete with wisdom and temperance and courage in the scale of political virtue? |
55201 | Is there anything more? |
55201 | Is there not rather a contradiction in him? |
55201 | Is this a pattern laid up in heaven, or mere vacancy on which he is supposed to gaze with wondering eye? |
55201 | Is this ideal at all the worse for being impracticable? |
55201 | It follows therefore that the good is not the cause of all things, but of the good only? |
55201 | It may also be called temperate, and for the same reasons? |
55201 | Italy and Sicily boast of Charondas, and there is Solon who is renowned among us; but what city has anything to say about you?'' |
55201 | Labouring in vain, he must end in hating himself and his fruitless occupation? |
55201 | Last comes the lover of gain? |
55201 | Let me ask you a question: Are not the several arts different, by reason of their each having a separate function? |
55201 | Let me explain: Can you see, except with the eye? |
55201 | Let us examine this: Is not pleasure opposed to pain, and is there not a mean state which is neither? |
55201 | Let us take any common instance; there are beds and* 596B* tables in the world-- plenty of them, are there not? |
55201 | Like husbandry for the acquisition of corn? |
55201 | Like ourselves, I replied; and they see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another, which the fire throws on the opposite wall of the cave? |
55201 | Look at the matter thus:--Hunger, thirst, and the like,* 585B* are inanitions of the bodily state? |
55201 | Male and female animals have the same pursuits-- why not also the two sexes of man? |
55201 | May I ask, Cephalus, whether your fortune was for the most part inherited or acquired by you? |
55201 | May I have the pleasure, he said, of hearing your opinion? |
55201 | May I suppose that you have this distinction of the visible and intelligible fixed in your mind? |
55201 | May it not be defined as a period of about twenty years in a woman''s life, and thirty in a man''s? |
55201 | May not the relation of sight to this deity be described as follows? |
55201 | May there not be the alternative, I said, that we may persuade you to let us go? |
55201 | May we not be satisfied with that? |
55201 | May we not say that these desires spend, and that the others make money because they conduce to production? |
55201 | May we not say that this is the end of a pruning- hook? |
55201 | May we say so, then? |
55201 | Must he not either perish at the hands of his enemies, or from being a man become a wolf-- that is, a tyrant? |
55201 | Must we not ask who are to be rulers and who subjects? |
55201 | Must we not then infer that the individual is wise in the same way, and in virtue of the same quality which makes the State wise? |
55201 | Nay, are they not wholly different? |
55201 | Need I ask again whether the eye has an end? |
55201 | Neither must they represent slaves, male or female, performing the offices of slaves? |
55201 | Neither will he ever break faith where there have been oaths or agreements? |
55201 | Neither, I said, can there be any question that the guardian who is to keep anything should have eyes rather than no eyes? |
55201 | Next as to the slain; ought the conquerors, I said, to take anything but their armour? |
55201 | Next, as to war; what are to be the relations of your soldiers to one another and to their enemies? |
55201 | Next, how shall our soldiers treat their enemies? |
55201 | Niebuhr has asked a trifling question, which may be briefly noticed in this place-- Was Plato a good citizen? |
55201 | No more than this? |
55201 | No one will be less likely to commit adultery, or to dishonour his father and mother, or to fail in his religious duties? |
55201 | No, indeed, I replied; and the same is true of most, if not all, the other senses-- you would not say that any of them requires such an addition? |
55201 | Nonsense, said Glaucon: did you not promise to search* 427E* yourself, saying that for you not to help justice in her need would be an impiety? |
55201 | Nor by reason of a knowledge which advises about brazen{ 118} pots, I said, nor as possessing any other similar knowledge? |
55201 | Nor can the good harm any one? |
55201 | Nor may they imitate the neighing of horses, the bellowing of bulls, the murmur of rivers and roll of the ocean, thunder, and all that sort of thing? |
55201 | Nor would you say that medicine is the art of receiving pay because a man takes fees when he is engaged in healing? |
55201 | Nor yet by reason of a knowledge which cultivates the earth; that would give the city the name of agricultural? |
55201 | Nor, if a man is to be in condition, would you allow him to have a Corinthian girl as his fair friend? |
55201 | Not to mention the importers and exporters, who are called merchants? |
55201 | Not, perhaps, in this brief span of life: but should an immortal being care about anything short of eternity? |
55201 | Now are we* 475E* to maintain that all these and any who have similar tastes, as well as the professors of quite minor arts, are philosophers? |
55201 | Now in vessels which are in a state of mutiny and by sailors who are mutineers, how will the true pilot be regarded? |
55201 | Now is there not here a third principle which is often found to come to the assistance of reason against desire, but never of desire against reason? |
55201 | Now to which of these classes does temperance belong? |
55201 | Now what man answers to this form of government-- how did he come into being, and what is he like? |
55201 | Now what opinion of any other Sophist, or of any private person, can be expected to overcome in such an unequal contest? |
55201 | Now which is the purer satisfaction-- that of eating and drinking, or that of knowledge? |
55201 | Now why is such an inference erroneous? |
55201 | Now you understand me? |
55201 | Now, I beseech you, do tell me, have you ever attended to their pairing and breeding? |
55201 | Now, I said, every art has an interest? |
55201 | Now, are not the best husbandmen those who are most devoted to husbandry? |
55201 | Now, can we find justice without troubling ourselves about temperance? |
55201 | Now, in* 562E* such a State, can liberty have any limit? |
55201 | Now, ought a man to feel pleasure in seeing another do what he hates and abominates in himself? |
55201 | O my friend, is not that so? |
55201 | Of course you know that ambition and avarice are held to be, as indeed they are, a disgrace? |
55201 | Of not- being, ignorance was assumed to be the necessary correlative; of being, knowledge? |
55201 | Of the painter we say that he will paint reins, and he will paint a bit? |
55201 | Of the three individuals, which has the greatest experience of all the pleasures which we enumerated? |
55201 | Of what kind? |
55201 | Of what nature are you speaking? |
55201 | Of what nature? |
55201 | On what principle, then, shall we any longer choose justice rather than the worst injustice? |
55201 | Once more let me ask: Does he who desires any class of goods, desire the whole class or a part only? |
55201 | Once more then, O my friend, we have alighted upon an easy question-- whether the soul has these three principles or not? |
55201 | One of them is ready to follow the guidance of the law? |
55201 | One principle prevails in the souls of one class of men,* 581C* another in others, as may happen? |
55201 | Or any affinity to virtue in general? |
55201 | Or be jealous of one who has no jealousy? |
55201 | Or because a man is in good health when he receives pay you would not say that the art of payment is medicine? |
55201 | Or drought moisture? |
55201 | Or have the arts to look only* 342B* after their own interests? |
55201 | Or hear, except with the ear? |
55201 | Or if honour or victory or courage, in that case the judgment of the ambitious or pugnacious would be the truest? |
55201 | Or is the Idea of Good another mode of conceiving God? |
55201 | Or is there any{ cxlviii} Homeric way of life, such as the Pythagorean was, in which you instructed men, and which is called after you? |
55201 | Or like shoemaking for the acquisition of shoes,--that is what you mean? |
55201 | Or must we admit exceptions? |
55201 | Or perhaps he may tell a lie because he is afraid of enemies? |
55201 | Or shall I guess for you? |
55201 | Or shall the dead be despoiled? |
55201 | Or suppose a better sort of man who is attracted towards philosophy, will they not make Herculean efforts to spoil and corrupt him? |
55201 | Or that his nature, being such as we have delineated, is akin to the highest good? |
55201 | Or the horseman by his art make them bad horsemen? |
55201 | Or the verse''The saddest of fates is to die and meet destiny from hunger[22]''? |
55201 | Or was any war ever carried on by your counsels? |
55201 | Or what shall he profit by escaping discovery, if the concealment of evil prevents the cure? |
55201 | Or will they prefer those whom we have rejected? |
55201 | Or, after all, they may be in the right, and poets do really know the things about which they seem to the many to speak so well? |
55201 | Or, if the master would not stay, then the disciples would have followed him about everywhere, until they had got education enough? |
55201 | Or{ 258} did he only seem to be a member of the ruling body, although in truth he was neither ruler nor subject, but just a spendthrift? |
55201 | Ought I not to begin by describing how the change from timocracy to oligarchy arises? |
55201 | Ought I, for example, to put back into the hands of my friend, who has gone mad, the sword which I borrowed of him when he was in his right mind? |
55201 | Parents and tutors are always telling their sons and their* 363A* wards that they are to be just; but why? |
55201 | Perhaps he of whom we say the last will be angry with us; can we pacify him without revealing the disorder of his mind? |
55201 | Presently he finds that imputations are cast upon them; a troublesome querist comes and asks,''What is the just and good?'' |
55201 | Reflect: is not the dreamer, sleeping or waking, one who likens dissimilar things, who puts the copy in the place of the real object? |
55201 | Reflect: when a man has an opinion, has he not an opinion about something? |
55201 | Salvation of what? |
55201 | Say, then, is not pleasure opposed to pain? |
55201 | Shall Hellenes be enslaved? |
55201 | Shall I assume that we ourselves are able and experienced judges and have before now met with such a person? |
55201 | Shall I give you an illustration? |
55201 | Shall I tell you why? |
55201 | Shall they listen to the narrative of Hephaestus binding his mother, and of Zeus sending him flying for helping her when she was beaten? |
55201 | Shall we begin by assuring him that he is welcome to any knowledge which he may have, and that we are rejoiced at his having it? |
55201 | Shall we begin education with music, and go on to gymnastic afterwards? |
55201 | Shall we not? |
55201 | Shall we propose, as a third branch of our education, astronomy? |
55201 | Shall we, after the manner of Homer, pray the Muses to tell us''how discord* 545E* first arose''? |
55201 | Shall we, then, speak of Him as the natural author or maker of the bed? |
55201 | Socrates proceeds: But where amid all this is justice? |
55201 | Socrates, what do you mean? |
55201 | Socrates, who is evidently preparing for an argument, next asks, What is the meaning of the word''justice''? |
55201 | Something that is; for how can that which is not ever be known? |
55201 | Still, I should like to ascertain how astronomy can be learned in any manner more conducive to that knowledge of which we are speaking? |
55201 | Still, the dangers of war can not be always foreseen; there is a good deal of chance about them? |
55201 | Such is the{ 105} tale; is there any possibility of making our citizens believe in it? |
55201 | Such will be the change, and after the change has been made,* 547D* how will they proceed? |
55201 | Such, then, are the palms of victory which the gods give the just? |
55201 | Suppose now that by the light of the examples just offered we enquire who this imitator is? |
55201 | Suppose we select an example of either kind, in order that we may have a general notion of them? |
55201 | Tell me, Thrasymachus, I said, did you mean by justice what the stronger thought to be his interest, whether really so or not? |
55201 | That is also good, he said; but I should like to know what you mean? |
55201 | That is his meaning then? |
55201 | That is quite true, he said; but to what are you alluding? |
55201 | That is to say, justice is useful when money is useless? |
55201 | That since beauty is the opposite of ugliness, they are two? |
55201 | That will be the way? |
55201 | The State which we have been describing is said to be wise as being good in counsel? |
55201 | The existence of such persons is to be attributed to want of education, ill- training, and an evil constitution of the State? |
55201 | The good which oligarchy proposed to itself and the means by which it was maintained was excess of wealth-- am I not right? |
55201 | The imitative artist will be in a brilliant state of intelligence about his own creations? |
55201 | The next question is, How shall we treat our enemies? |
55201 | The next question is, Who are to be our rulers? |
55201 | The object of one is food, and of the other drink? |
55201 | The one love and embrace the subjects of knowledge, the other those of opinion? |
55201 | The pleasure of eating is necessary in two ways; it does us good and it is essential to the continuance of life? |
55201 | The process is as follows: When a potter becomes rich, will he, think you, any longer take the same pains with his art? |
55201 | The question is asked,--Why are the citizens of states so hostile to philosophy? |
55201 | The second paradox leads up to some curious and interesting questions-- How far can the mind control the body? |
55201 | The soul, I said, being, as is now proven, immortal, must be the fairest of compositions and can not be compounded of many elements? |
55201 | The true lie is hated not only by the gods, but also by men? |
55201 | The true lover of learning then must from his earliest youth, as far as in him lies, desire all truth? |
55201 | The very great benefit has next to be established? |
55201 | The whole period of three score years and ten is surely but a little thing in comparison with eternity? |
55201 | Their pleasures are mixed with pains-- how can they be otherwise? |
55201 | Then I may infer courage to be such as you describe? |
55201 | Then I suppose that opinion appears to you to be darker than knowledge, but lighter than ignorance? |
55201 | Then I suppose that we ought to do good to the just and harm to the unjust? |
55201 | Then a city is not to be called wise because possessing a knowledge which counsels for the best about wooden implements? |
55201 | Then according to your argument it is just to injure those who do no wrong? |
55201 | Then an evil soul must necessarily be an evil ruler and superintendent, and the good soul a good ruler? |
55201 | Then are we to impose all our enactments on men and none of them on women? |
55201 | Then carpenters, and smiths, and many other artisans, will be sharers in our little State, which is already beginning to grow? |
55201 | Then clearly the next thing will be to make matrimony sacred in the highest degree, and what is most beneficial will be deemed sacred? |
55201 | Then comparing our original city, which was under a king, and the city which is under a tyrant, how do they stand as to virtue? |
55201 | Then he can hardly be compelled by external influence to take many shapes? |
55201 | Then he who is a good keeper of anything is also a good thief? |
55201 | Then he who is to be a really good and noble guardian of the State will require to unite in himself philosophy and spirit and swiftness and strength? |
55201 | Then he will no more have true opinion than he will have knowledge about the goodness or badness of his imitations? |
55201 | Then hirelings will help to make up our population? |
55201 | Then how can he who has magnificence of mind and is the spectator of all time and all existence, think much of human life? |
55201 | Then if being is the subject- matter of knowledge, something else must be the subject- matter of opinion? |
55201 | Then if geometry compels us to view being, it concerns us; if becoming only, it does not concern us? |
55201 | Then if the constitutions of States are five, the dispositions of individual minds will also be five? |
55201 | Then in every way the laws will help the citizens to keep the peace with one another? |
55201 | Then in making their laws they may sometimes make them rightly, and sometimes not? |
55201 | Then in this case the narrative of the poet may be said to proceed by way of imitation? |
55201 | Then in time of peace justice will be of no use? |
55201 | Then in time of peace what is the good of justice? |
55201 | Then it will be our duty to select, if we can, natures which are fitted for the task of guarding the city? |
55201 | Then knowledge and opinion having distinct powers have also distinct spheres or subject- matters? |
55201 | Then men who are injured are of necessity made unjust? |
55201 | Then more husbandmen and more artisans will be required? |
55201 | Then must not a further admission be made? |
55201 | Then no intemperance or madness should be allowed to approach true love? |
55201 | Then no motive can be imagined why God should lie? |
55201 | Then now comes the question,--How shall we create our rulers; what way is there from darkness to light? |
55201 | Then on this view also justice will be admitted to be the having and doing what is a man''s own, and belongs to him? |
55201 | Then opinion and knowledge have to do with different kinds of matter corresponding to this difference of faculties? |
55201 | Then opinion is not concerned either with being or with not- being? |
55201 | Then reflect; has the ear or voice need of any third or* 507D* additional nature in order that the one may be able to hear and the other to be heard? |
55201 | Then shall we try to find some way of convincing him, if we can, that he is saying what is not true? |
55201 | Then the art of war partakes of them? |
55201 | Then the community of wives and children among our citizens is clearly the source of the greatest good to the State? |
55201 | Then the cowardly and mean nature has no part in true philosophy? |
55201 | Then the intermediate state of rest will be pleasure and will also be pain? |
55201 | Then the just is happy, and the unjust miserable? |
55201 | Then the just is like the wise and good, and the unjust like the evil and ignorant? |
55201 | Then the just soul and the just man will live well, and the unjust man will live ill? |
55201 | Then the lover of wisdom has a great advantage over the lover of gain, for he has a double experience? |
55201 | Then the lying poet has no place in our idea of God? |
55201 | Then the soul of the thirsty one, in so far as he is thirsty,* 439B* desires only drink; for this he yearns and tries to obtain it? |
55201 | Then the sun is not sight, but the author of sight who is recognised by sight? |
55201 | Then the tyrant is removed from true pleasure by the space of a number which is three times three? |
55201 | Then the tyrant will live at the greatest distance from true or natural pleasure, and the king at the least? |
55201 | Then the wise and good will not desire to gain more than his like, but more than his unlike and opposite? |
55201 | Then the world can not possibly be a philosopher? |
55201 | Then there is nothing impossible or out of the order of nature in our finding a guardian who has a similar combination of qualities? |
55201 | Then there must be another class of citizens who will bring the required supply from another city? |
55201 | Then they will quarrel as those who intend some day to be reconciled? |
55201 | Then this is the progress which you call dialectic? |
55201 | Then this new kind of knowledge must have an additional quality? |
55201 | Then to injure a friend or any one else is not the act of a just man, but of the opposite, who is the unjust? |
55201 | Then to them the good will be enemies and the evil will be their friends? |
55201 | Then virtue is the health and beauty and well- being of the* 444E* soul, and vice the disease and weakness and deformity of the same? |
55201 | Then we have found the desired natures; and now that we have found them, how are they to be reared and educated? |
55201 | Then we have made an enactment not only possible but in the highest degree beneficial to the State? |
55201 | Then we may assume that our athletes will be able to fight with two or three times their own number? |
55201 | Then we may begin by assuming that there are three classes of men-- lovers of wisdom, lovers of honour, lovers of gain? |
55201 | Then we must abstain from spoiling the dead or hindering their burial? |
55201 | Then we shall want merchants? |
55201 | Then what is that joint use of silver or gold in which the just man is to be preferred? |
55201 | Then what is your meaning? |
55201 | Then what will you do with them? |
55201 | Then when the person who asks me is not in his right mind I am by no means to make the return? |
55201 | Then who is more miserable? |
55201 | Then why should you mind? |
55201 | Then will not the citizens be good and civilized? |
55201 | Then women must be taught music and gymnastic and also the art of war, which they must practise like the men? |
55201 | Then you never heard of the saying of Phocylides, that as soon as a man has a livelihood he should practise virtue? |
55201 | Then you will make a law that they shall have such an education as will enable them to attain the greatest skill in asking and answering questions? |
55201 | Then you would infer that opinion is intermediate? |
55201 | Then, I said, if these and these only are to be used in our songs and melodies, we shall not want multiplicity of notes or a panharmonic scale? |
55201 | Then, I said, no science or art considers or enjoins the interest of the stronger or superior, but only the interest* 342D* of the subject and weaker? |
55201 | Then, again, within the city, how will they exchange their{ 52} productions? |
55201 | Then, do you see any way in which the philosopher can* 494B* be preserved in his calling to the end? |
55201 | Then, if there be any good which all artists have in common, that is to be attributed to something of which they all have the common use? |
55201 | Then, if women are to have the same duties as men, they* 452A* must have the same nurture and education? |
55201 | Then, under the influence either of poverty or of wealth, workmen and their work are equally liable to degenerate? |
55201 | There is a thing which you call good and another which you call evil? |
55201 | There is another which is the work of the carpenter? |
55201 | There is the knowledge of the carpenter; but is that the sort of knowledge which gives a city the title of wise and good in counsel? |
55201 | There may come a time when the saying,''Have I not a right to do what I will with my own?'' |
55201 | There were two parts in our former scheme of education,* 521E* were there not? |
55201 | There you are right, he replied; but if any one asks where are such models to be found and of what tales are you speaking-- how shall we answer him? |
55201 | These are the three styles-- which of them is to be admitted into our State? |
55201 | These matters, however, as I was saying, had better be referred to Damon himself, for the analysis of the subject would be difficult, you know? |
55201 | These then may be truly said to be the ends of these organs? |
55201 | These, then, are the two kinds of style? |
55201 | They are like faces which were never really beautiful, but only blooming; and now the bloom of youth has passed away from them? |
55201 | They will use friendly correction, but will not enslave or destroy their opponents; they will be correctors, not enemies? |
55201 | The{ cxx} man is mean, saving, toiling,* 554* the slave of one passion which is the master of the rest: Is he not the very image of the State? |
55201 | This, I said, is he who begins to make a party against the rich? |
55201 | Thus much of music, which makes a fair ending; for what should be the end of music if not the love of beauty? |
55201 | To be sure, he said; how can he think otherwise? |
55201 | To return to the tyrant-- How will he support that rare army of his? |
55201 | To tell the truth and pay your debts? |
55201 | To what do you refer? |
55201 | True, I said; but would you never allow them to run any risk? |
55201 | True, he replied; but what of that? |
55201 | True, he said; how could they see anything but the* 515B* shadows if they were never allowed to move their heads? |
55201 | Undoubtedly; and yet if music and gymnastic are excluded, and the arts are also excluded, what remains? |
55201 | Union and force and rhetoric will do much; and if men say that they can not prevail over the gods, still how do we know that there are gods? |
55201 | Until some one rare and grand result is reached which may be good, and may be the reverse of good? |
55201 | Very good, I said; then what is the next question? |
55201 | Very good, Thrasymachus, I said; and now to take the case of the arts: you would admit that one man is a musician and* 349E* another not a musician? |
55201 | Very true, Adeimantus; but then, would any one, whether God or man, desire to make himself worse? |
55201 | Very true, he said; but what are these forms of theology which you mean? |
55201 | Very true, said Adeimantus; but how does the illustration* 368E* apply to our enquiry? |
55201 | Was not the selection of the male guardians determined by differences of this sort? |
55201 | Was not this the beginning of the enquiry''What is great?'' |
55201 | We acknowledged-- did we not? |
55201 | We can not but remember that the justice of the State* 441E* consisted in each of the three classes doing the work of its own class? |
55201 | We had to consider, first, whether our proposals were possible, and secondly whether they were the most beneficial? |
55201 | We must recollect that the individual in whom the several qualities of his nature do their own work will be just, and will do his own work? |
55201 | We were saying that the parents should be in the prime of life? |
55201 | We were saying, when we spoke of the subject- matter, that we had no need of lamentation and strains of sorrow? |
55201 | Well then, here are three beds: one existing in nature, which is made by God, as I think that we may say-- for no one else can be the maker? |
55201 | Well then, is not- being the subject- matter of opinion? |
55201 | Well then, you would admit that the qualities of states mean the qualities of the individuals who compose them? |
55201 | Well, I said, and how does the change from oligarchy into democracy arise? |
55201 | Well, I said, and in oligarchical States do you not find paupers? |
55201 | Well, I said, and is there no evil which corrupts the soul? |
55201 | Well, I said, the subject has several difficulties-- What is possible? |
55201 | Well, I said; but if we suppose a change in anything, that* 380E* change must be effected either by the thing itself, or by some other thing? |
55201 | Well, and are these of any military use? |
55201 | Well, and can the eyes fulfil their end if they are{ 34} wanting* 353C* in their own proper excellence and have a defect instead? |
55201 | Well, and do you think that those who say so are wrong? |
55201 | Well, and is not this one quality, to mention no others, greatly at variance with present notions of him? |
55201 | Well, and your guardian must be brave if he is to fight well? |
55201 | Well, but can you imagine that God will be willing to lie, whether in word or deed, or to put forth a phantom of himself? |
55201 | Well, but has any one a right to say positively what he does not know? |
55201 | Well, but if they are ever to run a risk should they not do so on some occasion when, if they escape disaster, they will be the better for it? |
55201 | Well, but what ought to be the criterion? |
55201 | Well, he said, have you never heard that forms of government differ; there are tyrannies, and there are democracies, and there are aristocracies? |
55201 | Well, you know of course that the greater is relative to the less? |
55201 | Well; and has not the soul an end which nothing else can fulfil? |
55201 | Were not these your words? |
55201 | What about this? |
55201 | What admission? |
55201 | What admissions? |
55201 | What are these corruptions? |
55201 | What are they, he said, and where shall I find them? |
55201 | What are they? |
55201 | What are they? |
55201 | What are they? |
55201 | What are you going to say? |
55201 | What causes? |
55201 | What defect? |
55201 | What did I borrow? |
55201 | What division? |
55201 | What do they say? |
55201 | What do you deserve to have done to you? |
55201 | What do you mean, Socrates? |
55201 | What do you mean? |
55201 | What do you mean? |
55201 | What do you mean? |
55201 | What do you mean? |

55201 | What do you say? |
55201 | What do you say? |
55201 | What do you say? |
55201 | What do you say?'' |
55201 | What do you think? |
55201 | What else can they do? |
55201 | What else then would you say? |
55201 | What else would you have? |
55201 | What evil? |
55201 | What evils? |
55201 | What faculty? |
55201 | What good? |
55201 | What is desirable? |
55201 | What is it? |
55201 | What is it? |
55201 | What is it? |
55201 | What is most required? |
55201 | What is that you are saying? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is that? |
55201 | What is the difference? |
55201 | What is the process? |
55201 | What is the proposition? |
55201 | What is there remaining? |
55201 | What is to be done then? |
55201 | What is your illustration? |
55201 | What is your notion? |
55201 | What is your proposal? |
55201 | What limit would you propose? |
55201 | What makes you say that? |
55201 | What may that be? |
55201 | What may that be? |
55201 | What may that be? |
55201 | What of this line,''O heavy with wine, who hast the eyes of a dog and the heart of a stag[20],''* 390A* and of the words which follow? |
55201 | What point of view? |
55201 | What point? |
55201 | What principle of rival Sophists or anybody else can overcome in such an unequal contest? |
55201 | What quality? |
55201 | What quality? |
55201 | What question? |
55201 | What shall he profit, if his injustice be undetected and unpunished? |
55201 | What shall we say to him? |
55201 | What should they fear? |
55201 | What sort of instances do you mean? |
55201 | What sort of knowledge is there which would draw the soul from becoming to being? |
55201 | What sort of lie? |
55201 | What sort of mischief? |
55201 | What study do you mean-- of the prelude, or what? |
55201 | What tale? |
55201 | What the poets and story- tellers say-- that the wicked prosper and the righteous are afflicted, or that justice is another''s gain? |
55201 | What then is the real object of them? |
55201 | What then was his meaning?] |
55201 | What then? |
55201 | What trait? |
55201 | What was the error, Polemarchus? |
55201 | What was the mistake? |
55201 | What was the omission? |
55201 | What way? |
55201 | What will be the issue of such marriages? |
55201 | What will they doubt? |
55201 | What, Thrasymachus, is the meaning of this? |
55201 | What, again, is the meaning of light and heavy, if that which is light is also heavy, and that which is heavy, light? |
55201 | What, are there any greater still? |
55201 | What, he said, is there a knowledge still higher than this-- higher than justice and the other virtues? |
55201 | What, now, I said, if he were able to run away and then* 422C* turn and strike at the one who first came up? |
55201 | What, then, is the nature of dialectic, and what are the paths which lead thither?'' |
55201 | What? |
55201 | When Simonides said that the repayment of a debt was justice, he did not mean to include that case? |
55201 | When he is by himself he will not mind saying or doing many things which he would be ashamed of any one hearing or seeing him do? |
55201 | When horses are injured, are they improved or deteriorated? |
55201 | When is this accomplished? |
55201 | When mankind see that the happiness of states is only to be found in that image, will they be angry with us for attempting to delineate it? |
55201 | When they make them rightly, they make them agreeably to their interest; when they are mistaken, contrary to their interest; you admit that? |
55201 | Where must I look? |
55201 | Where then is he to gain experience? |
55201 | Where then? |
55201 | Where, then, is justice, and where is injustice, and in what part of the State did they spring up? |
55201 | Whereas he who has a taste for every sort of knowledge and who is curious to learn and is never satisfied, may be justly termed a philosopher? |
55201 | Whereas the bad and ignorant will desire to gain more than both? |
55201 | Whereas the physician and the carpenter have different natures? |
55201 | Whereas true love is a love of beauty and order-- temperate and harmonious? |
55201 | Which appetites do you mean? |
55201 | Which are they? |
55201 | Which is a just principle? |
55201 | Which of us has spoken truly? |
55201 | Which years do you mean to include? |
55201 | Who better suited to raise the question of justice than Cephalus, whose life might seem to be the expression of it? |
55201 | Who can be at enmity with one who loves them, who that is himself gentle and free from envy will be jealous of one in whom there is no jealousy? |
55201 | Who can hate a man who loves him? |
55201 | Who can measure probabilities against certainties? |
55201 | Who can weigh virtue, or even fortune against health, or moral and mental qualities against bodily? |
55201 | Who is it, I said, whom you are refusing to let off? |
55201 | Who is that? |
55201 | Who that is not a miserable caitiff will refrain from smiling at the praises of justice? |
55201 | Who then are those whom we shall compel to be guardians? |
55201 | Who then can be a guardian? |
55201 | Who was that? |
55201 | Whom, I said, are you{ lxx} not going to let off? |
55201 | Whose is that light which makes the eye to see perfectly and the visible to appear? |
55201 | Whose? |
55201 | Why do you ask such a question, I said, when you ought rather to be answering? |
55201 | Why do you ask? |
55201 | Why do you say so? |
55201 | Why great caution? |
55201 | Why indeed, he said, when any name will do which expresses the thought of the mind with clearness? |
55201 | Why is that? |
55201 | Why not? |
55201 | Why not? |
55201 | Why not? |
55201 | Why should he? |
55201 | Why should they not be? |
55201 | Why so? |
55201 | Why so? |
55201 | Why so? |
55201 | Why so? |
55201 | Why, I replied, what do you want more? |
55201 | Why, I said, do you not see that men are unwillingly deprived of good, and willingly of evil? |
55201 | Why, I said, what was ever great in a short time? |
55201 | Why, in the first place, although they are all of a good sort, are not some better than others? |
55201 | Why, what else is there? |
55201 | Why, yes, I said, of course they answer truly; how can the Muses speak falsely? |
55201 | Why, yes, he said: how can any reasonable being ever identify that which is infallible with that which errs? |
55201 | Why, you do not mean to say that the tyrant will use violence? |
55201 | Why? |
55201 | Why? |
55201 | Why? |
55201 | Why? |
55201 | Will any one deny the other point, that there may be sons of kings or princes who are by nature philosophers? |
55201 | Will any private training enable him to stand firm against the overwhelming flood of popular opinion? |
55201 | Will he know from use whether or no his drawing is correct or beautiful? |
55201 | Will he not also require natural aptitude for his calling? |
55201 | Will he not be called by them a prater, a star- gazer, a good- for- nothing? |
55201 | Will he not fancy that the shadows which he formerly saw are truer than the objects which are now shown to him? |
55201 | Will he not have the notions of good and evil which the public in general have-- he will do as they do, and as they are, such will he be? |
55201 | Will he not rather obtain them on the spot? |
55201 | Will he not think that heaven and the things in heaven are framed by the{ 233} Creator of them in the most perfect manner? |
55201 | Will he not utterly hate a lie? |
55201 | Will horsemen carry torches and pass them one to another during the race? |
55201 | Will not a young man''s heart leap amid these discordant sounds? |
55201 | Will not the guardians be the smallest of all the classes who receive a name from the profession of some kind of knowledge? |
55201 | Will not their eyes be dazzled, and will they not try to get away from the light to something which they are able to behold without blinking? |
55201 | Will our citizens ever believe all this? |
55201 | Will the creature feel any compunction at tyrannizing over them? |
55201 | Will the just man or citizen ever be guilty of sacrilege or theft, or treachery either to his friends or to his country? |
55201 | Will the just state or the just individual* 443* steal, lie, commit adultery, or be guilty of impiety to gods and men? |
55201 | Will they disbelieve us, when we tell them that no State can be happy which is not designed by artists who imitate the heavenly pattern? |
55201 | Will they doubt that the philosopher is a lover of truth and being? |
55201 | Will they not be vile and bastard, devoid of truth and nature? |
55201 | Will they not be vile and bastard? |
55201 | Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves? |
55201 | Will you admit so much? |
55201 | Will you enquire yourself? |
55201 | Will you explain your meaning? |
55201 | Will you repay me, then, what you borrowed in the argument? |
55201 | Will you say whether you approve of my proposal? |
55201 | Will you tell me? |
55201 | Will you tell me? |
55201 | Will you then kindly answer, for the edification of the company and of myself? |
55201 | Would a man who wanted to be safe on a voyage take a bad pilot because he was rich, or refuse a good one because he was poor? |
55201 | Would any one deny this? |
55201 | Would he allow imitation to be the ruling principle of his life, as if he had* 599B* nothing higher in him? |
55201 | Would he not have had many devoted followers? |
55201 | Would he not rather say or do the same as his like in the same case? |
55201 | Would not he who is fitted to be a guardian, besides the spirited nature, need to have the qualities of a philosopher? |
55201 | Would that be your way of speaking? |
55201 | Would the picture of a perfectly beautiful man be any the worse because no such man ever lived? |
55201 | Would they not have been as unwilling to part with them as with gold, and have compelled them to stay{ 314}* 600E* at home with them? |
55201 | Would you call one of them virtue and the other vice? |
55201 | Would you have me put the proof bodily into your souls? |
55201 | Would you like, for the sake of clearness, to distinguish which are the necessary and which are the unnecessary pleasures? |
55201 | Would you say that all men are equal in excellence, or is one man better than another? |
55201 | Would you say that knowledge is a faculty, or in what class would you place it? |
55201 | Yes, I said, a jest; and why? |
55201 | Yes, I said; and the higher principle is ready to follow this suggestion of reason? |
55201 | Yes, I said; and this being true of one must be equally true of all number? |
55201 | Yes, I said; and when a man dies gloriously in war shall we not say, in the first place, that he is of the golden race? |
55201 | Yes, I said; but if this definition of justice also breaks down, what other can be offered? |
55201 | Yes, Socrates, he said, and if you were providing for a city of pigs, how else would you feed the beasts? |
55201 | Yes, but also something more-- Is it not doubtful whether our guardians are to be imitators at all? |
55201 | Yes, but could this ever have happened if Homer had really been the educator of Hellas? |
55201 | Yes, but do not persons often err about good and evil: many who are not good seem to be so, and conversely? |
55201 | Yes, he replied, such is very often the case; but what has that to do with us and our argument? |
55201 | Yes, he said, that sort of thing is certainly very blameable; but what are the stories which you mean? |
55201 | Yes, he said; but what are the characteristics of this form* 551C* of government, and what are the defects of which we were speaking[6]? |
55201 | Yes, he said; how can I deny it? |
55201 | Yes, the greatest; but will you explain yourself? |
55201 | Yes; and is not this true of the government of anything[7]? |
55201 | Yes; but how in such partnerships is the just man of more use than any other man? |
55201 | Yet if he is not the maker, what is he in relation to the bed? |
55201 | Yet of all the organs of sense the eye is the most like the sun? |
55201 | You are aware, I suppose, that all mythology and poetry is a narration of events, either past, present, or to come? |
55201 | You are further aware that most people affirm pleasure to be the good, but the finer sort of wits say it is knowledge? |
55201 | You have answered me, I replied: Well, and may we not* 456E* further say that our guardians are the best of our citizens? |
55201 | You know that they live securely and have nothing to apprehend from their servants? |
55201 | You mean geometry? |
