You can render service in kind darned much so. I don't want you to pay any shot towards the outfit. See here, Stanninghame, if you go up country with me now, you'll come back a fairly rich man, or " "Or what?" "You'll never come back at all." In spite of his normal imperturbability, Laurence was conscious of a quickening of the pulses.
And she began to regard Pasquin Leroy, with his even temperament, cool imperturbability, intellectual daring, and literary ability, as the link which kept them all together, and gave practical force to the often brooding and fantastic day-dreams of Thord, who, though he made plans night and day for the greater freedom and relief of the People from unjust coercion, had not succeeded in obtaining as yet sufficient power to carry them into execution.
The greater part of the time he seemed unconscious of his companion's presence, but genuinely unconscious, not with the deliberate affront of a pretended indifference. Under even this negative good treatment the girl expanded with an almost luxuriant gratitude. Her face lost its stoical mask of imperturbability, and much of her former arch beauty returned.
Even Louis, a man of vast experience and sublime imperturbability, visiting the Imperial on its opening night, had allowed the significant words to escape him, "Well, I'm blest!" proof enough of the triumph of the Imperial! The Imperial had set out to be the most gorgeous cinema in the Five Towns; and it simply was. Its advertisements read: "There is always room at the top." There was.
Women, so sublime in their devotion, are seldom capable of the continuous firmness of mind the imperturbability requisite for a political plan. Their politics are in their heart, their passions trench so closely on their reason. Of all the virtues which a throne requires they have but courage; often heroes, they are never statesmen.

Nothing kept him in check save the imperturbability of the seated figure.
"I shot one when I was younger. I was immensely afraid, and so was the bear. I have a great desire to try again." Etta glanced at Paul, who returned De Chauxville's bland gaze with all the imperturbability of a prince. The countess's cackling voice broke in at this juncture, as perhaps De Chauxville had intended it to do. "Then why not come and shoot ours?" she said.
"She has a strong look of Alexander," said Harriet, consideringly, "and a little look of you and of me. She is a Blair, though I can see her mother, too, about the mouth." The child moved under the scrutiny, but her gaze, returning the study, did not falter. Harriet laughed; was it at this imperturbability? "I think," she decided, "we may consider her a Blair."
He looked back and beheld the Republican watchmaker. The manner of the man was changed from the dogged imperturbability with which he had listened to Mr. Ward's arguments in the morning to a frank and eager confidence.
To prove that that was not incredible, St. George turned until his lips brushed her wrist. "Don't you know, don't you, dear," he pressed the matter, "that very possibly these people here have really got the secret that all the rest of the world is talking about and hoping about and dreaming they will sometime know?" Olivia heard of this likelihood with delicious imperturbability.
