They will all tell you that they were innocent of the crimes for which they were sentenced." He smoked in silence for a minute or two and then said: "You are not a criminal, Weyburn."

Another silence, and then: "It seems incredible to me that you, or any man in your situation, should find the world so hard-hearted.
Turn, O miserable, hard-hearted animal, turn, I say, those timorous owl's eyes upon these of mine that are compared to radiant stars, and thou wilt see them weeping trickling streams and rills, and tracing furrows, tracks, and paths over the fair fields of my cheeks.
"Look at that, you hard-hearted brute!" he roared to Christopher, who sat, anything but hard-hearted, his eyes filling fast, at the sad proof of his wife's love and suffering.

When did you hear it!" "Oh, months ago!" And Fanny found any further postponement of laughter impossible. "Fanny, you're a hard-hearted creature," Isabel said gently. "You really are. Don't pay any attention to her, George. Fred Kinney's only a clerk in his uncle's hardware place: he couldn't marry for ages even if anybody would accept him!" George breathed tumultuously.
"I work for you, Hector McKaye, but I give you value received and in this office I'm king and be damned to you." His voice rose to a shrill, childish treble that presaged tears of rage.

Naturally, being young, she exaggerated the importance of the event, and brooded on it. It was different with her father and mother.
"Of course I would be permitted to visit my child from time to time? He couldn't be so monstrously hard-hearted as " "Oh, nonsense!" cried Watterly impatiently. "The idea of his letting you come to his house after what you've said about him! I've no time to waste in foolishness, or he either.
"I need never look for sympathy from you, Debby," broke in the invalid with a low sob; "you are very hard-hearted, but the day will come when all those cruel speeches will rise up and condemn you."
