What we conceptually identify ourselves with and say we are thinking of at any time is the centre; but our full self is the whole field, with all those indefinitely radiating subconscious possibilities of increase that we can only feel without conceiving, and can hardly begin to analyze.
She recognized, but could not analyze, the difference. She was aware only of the brutishness of this man's hands and mind. "You're lookin' white an' all beat to a frazzle," he was saying. "Why don't you cut the work? You got to some time, anyway. You can't lose me, kid." "I wish I could," she replied. He laughed with harsh joviality. "Nothin' to it, Saxon. You're just cut out to be Mrs.
'It was a look of faith; a look of love; a look that had all his soul in it; a look which did not attempt to analyze, but which was content to receive. He looked, and, looking, entered into life. You can take the sentences from the Life of Francis and transfer them to the Life of Spurgeon, or vice versa, and they will fit their new environment with the most perfect historical accuracy.
He remembered that almost at once he had fallen in love with Cora: she captivated him, enraptured him, as she still did as she always would, he felt, no matter how she treated him or what she did to him. He did not analyze the process of the captivation and enrapturement for love is a mystery and cannot be analyzed. This is so well known that even Richard Lindley knew it, and did not try!
I attempted to analyze this influence, so strong, yet so invisibly produced. I thought of her mildness, her dreamy habits, her indifference, and her incapacity of comprehending natures unlike her own. Would endowment of character explain it that faculty which we could not change, give, or take? Character was a mysterious and indestructible fact, and a fact that I had had little respect for.
"I allow that there is a strange mixture of fustian and maudlin in all these things," answered De Montaigne; "but they are but the windfalls of trees that may bear rich fruit in due season; meanwhile, any new school is better than eternal imitations of the old. As for critical vindications of the works themselves, the age that produces the phenomena is never the age to classify and analyze them.
"Then," she commented, "you have either a somewhat extraordinary character, or you are in love with him in a way that is beyond most of us. In any case, I can't help feeling that you will be sorry some day for what you have done." Next moment the door closed with a bang, and Agatha was left alone to analyze her sensations during her interview with Wyllard.
Mawg, her late captor, she had hated with a murderous hate; yet she had submitted to him, in a dim way biding her time for vengeance. He was of her own race; and it was in her mind, her spirit though she herself could not so analyze the emotion that she hated him. But this new master was an alien, and of a lower, beastlier type. Toward him she felt a sick bodily repulsion.
It would need a detailed treatment, here impossible, to back up so general a statement with the facts which prove it, but the facts are beyond dispute. It would be equally difficult to analyze the elements in human nature which lead us to seek such communion.
At the time Peter felt there was an clench in the Illinoisan's logic, but he was not skilful enough to analyze it. Now the mulatto began to see that Farquhar was right. The negro question was a matter of individual initiative. Critics forgot that a race was composed of individual men.
