Galloway, drily, "a good name is easier lost than won." "Yes, it is," freely replied Arthur. "However, sir, to return to the question. I shall be glad to help you, if you have no one better at hand. I could devote several hours a day to it, and you know that I am thoroughly to be trusted with the work. I might take some home now." "Home!" returned Mr. Galloway.
It would be easier to move the solid earth than to make her understand. But it was altogether a very strange night such a night as never had been passed in that house before; and fearful things were about in the darkness, ill dreams, strange shadows of trouble.
"Oh, no! He only said that as I was not disposed to accept what would make it so much easier, he would have to think it over. I have not seen him since." "But you understand what he had planned, do you not?" Malipieri asked. "It is very simple." "It is not so clear to me. I am not at all clever, you know." The Princess laughed carelessly.
The Spaniard was right who said it was easier to take care of a peck of fleas than one woman, eh, chum?" "So she threatens to tell your wife?" "No. She says she's going to summon me into court." "On what grounds?" "That's the worst part of it. You see, chum, there's a child, and she says she's going to apply for a proper support for it. Proper support! Heavens!

The boy wore grey flannel shirts and so at a stroke did away with collars and cuffs.

After that companionship was a little easier, but under the circumstances the one topic most on the mind of each was carefully avoided.
Cayrol, gloomy and fierce, raised his eyes to the mistress, and answered: "Nothing!" "Did he not come?" "Yes, he came. But I had not the necessary energy to kill him. I thought it was an easier matter to become a murderer. And you thought so too, eh?"
