"That's neither a trade nor a profession," said Dally after a while, still smiling. "I fear you are fuzzy-wuzzying again, Wellander. What do you mean by an explorer?" "One who explores rivers and deserts and unknown countries and such things," said Keith brazenly. "And you really mean that you are going in for that sort of thing?"
When he entered the reception hall of the hotel before which he had strolled that morning, the hall porter challenged him. He said he was waiting for Miss Kronborg. The porter looked at him suspiciously and asked whether he had an appointment. He answered brazenly that he had. He was not used to being questioned by hall boys.
They tell you brazenly: "The combination of this universe was possible, seeing that the combination exists: therefore it was possible that movement alone arranged it.
But when he looked brazenly at her he saw her regarding him with a direct, disdainful gaze. He understood. She was surprised and indignant over the action, possibly shocked over his cool assumption, but she was not going to lose her composure. "Well," he said, keenly enjoying the situation and determined to torment her further, "set down. I reckon we'll grub."
Baxter paused for a moment. "Now you have found me out, what are you going to do about it?" he went on brazenly. "You can't arrest me on shipboard." "No, but we can have you arrested when we land," said Dick. "And in the meantime we will take charge of what is our own."

He counts himself all unseen, yet presently shame drops the curtain. He turns away, yet stands hearkening. The music is about to end.
In a measure he did relieve his feelings by expressing his opinion of Herbert Rackliff, who was brazenly seeking to ignore the open disdain of his schoolmates. He did not come out for practice that night, and Grant explained to the others that Phil was knocked out by a cold, whereupon Cooper chucklingly remarked that he thought it was Barville that had knocked Springer out.
"Because I like you; because I'm a friend of yours," returned the stoop-shouldered one. "You're a pretty new friend," Mock went on. "I never saw you until that day when the captain caught me shirking and told off two men to prod me back into camp." "That was the time for you to know me," declared the other brazenly.
The two men subsided into bristling silence. Suddenly, "There she is again!" shrilled Minnie, from her bedroom. Buzz shrank back in his chair. Old man Werner, with a muttered oath, went to the open doorway and stood there, puffing savage little spurts of smoke streetward. The Kearney girl stared brazenly at him as she strolled slowly by, a slim and sinister figure.
