Weldon and he had been good friends through thick and thin; it would have been beastly to leave him. And now, after all these useless weeks, he could at least do something to lighten the convalescence. Moreover, Carew's pocket held three letters, received that very noon; one of grudging approval from his son-sick mother, one of chaotic, but heartfelt thanks from Mrs.
All my life I had been hearing of the Working Classes, of Industrialism, of Labor Problems and the Organization of Labor; but it was only now in South Africa, in this chaotic, crude illuminating period of putting a smashed and desolated social order together again, that I perceived these familiar phrases represented something something stupendously real.
During the period of the Confederation, the chaotic state of the currency was a serious obstacle to trade, and it afforded endless opportunities for fraud and extortion.
But in the United States, with a heterogeneous labor class, bereft of their social norms by the violence of their uprooting from the old world, dropped into an unprepared and chaotic American life, with its insidious prestige here a rise in wages could and does often mean added ostentation, social climbing, superficial polishing, new vice.
He can't half unravel the chaotic cobwebs of his mind; as he plods along penning it, a thousand fancies flit about him too intangibly for fixed words, and his ever-teeming hot imagination cannot away with the slow process of concreted composition.
In this work of beauty, every boulder is prepared and measured and put in its place more thoughtfully than are the stones of temples.

I have already tried to describe a part of what took place in that hour and a half, although even now I cannot get it all straight in my mind. Races, when a great deal is at stake, are more or less chaotic: a close four miles in a college eight is a succession of blurs with lucid but irrelevant intervals.
The meaning that is in him shapes itself into no form of composition, is stated in no sequence, method, or coherence; they are not shaped at all, these thoughts of his; flung-out unshaped, as they struggle and tumble there, in their chaotic inarticulate state. The man has not studied speaking; in the haste and pressure of continual fighting, has not time to mature himself into fit speech.
I've waited and waited, I've suffered, I've almost gone crazy and now I know. And I said I'd kill you if it were so, I'd kill myself only I can't. I'm a coward." Her voice was drowned again by weeping. A child! He had never imagined such a contingency! And as he leaned back against the desk, his emotions became chaotic.
