It is a delightful book to leave about, with its vellum binding, dainty ribbons, and the hallmark of a great publisher's name.

The impress Günzburg left upon Hebrew literature is of special importance. Until his time, despite the examples set by Satanov and Levin, Hebrew was stamped with the hallmark of medievalism.

"And it's all owing to you, boys, and you'll never find me ungrateful bless your hearts, the best friends a fellow ever had! You'll all have places; I want every one of you. I know you I know you 'by the back, as the gamblers say. You're jokers, and all that, but you're sterling, with the hallmark on.

Its hallmark is that it precedes the use of reason; is a form of perception, imposes a certain character on the data of our senses before the data reach the intelligence. The stereotype is like the lavender window-panes on Beacon Street, like the door-keeper at a costume ball who judges whether the guest has an appropriate masquerade.

There was no preliminary testing, sifting, or examining by these empiricists, who, finding Bolshevism on their way, and discerning no facile means of dislodging or transforming it, signified their willingness under easy conditions to hallmark and incorporate it as one of the elements of the new ordering.

You know what a university is, and a university degree? It is the necessary hallmark of a man who wants to do anything in teaching. My scheme, or dream, is to be a university graduate, and then to be ordained.

Boyer's visit, to put the hallmark of respectability on the household, to restore it to something it had lost or had never had. She was quite unconscious of McLean's admiration. She and Anna put Jimmy to bed. The tree candles were burned out; Peter was extinguishing the dying remnants when Harmony came back. McLean was at the piano, thrumming softly.

It certainly was a very merry place, and if its presiding geniuses were engaged in conscious philanthropy, the blighting hallmark was conspicuous by its absence.

I am not complaining, you understand. We had to come to Cornwall. It was inevitable for us. No English artist is considered anything until he has painted a picture of the Land's End or Newquay. The Channel Islands or Devon is not quite the same thing. Not such a distinctive hallmark. So we came to Cornwall, and my husband went to seed. That was why I welcomed Mr. Turold's conversation for him.
