But self or person is not any one impression, but that to which our several impressions and ideas are supposed to have a reference. If any impression gives rise to the idea of self, that impression must continue invariably the same, through the whole course of our lives; since self is supposed to exist after that manner. But there is no impression constant and invariable.
Remember me to him kindly, and tell him that I sincerely approve of his sonatas published by Hartel. With invariable friendship, I remain cordially and sincerely Your VENICE, October 19th, 1858. Be thanked, dear friendly friend; your beautiful friendship is the only thing that still impresses me; you give it me purely, fully.
It was the invariable custom of the ambitious and confident courtier to appropriate the Queen to himself. Pausing at the close, he raised his arm ritually towards the trees and rested thus a moment speechless. "Descampativos!" he suddenly exclaimed in a stentorian tone, throwing off his robe.
Sometimes a shrine could be seen, and with the inmates dressed in pretty kimonos, it was truly a fascinating picture, unlike anything that had elsewhere struck our fancy. The invariable smile, bow, and courtesy that always greet you place a finishing and charming touch to the whole. The bazar or long street of shops was enticing, with so many souvenirs to choose from.
Then, as the invariable rule of war, there came the hundredth time when the unexpected happened. Shells, bombs, bullets they take the others and pass you by. But sooner or later, it will be "nah-poo." You can only pray Heaven it's a Blighty. With the German patrol, it was not. A whispered word came down the waiting line. "Get ready."
Now if this appeal is to have weight with courts in diminishing the penalty the law would otherwise inflict, is not the whole class under a privilege which will, in a degree, protect it in wrong-doing? It is not a thing that happens now and then. It is the invariable appeal, the last resort, of counsel, when everything else has failed.
Another Virginian's essay, of 1834, ran as follows: Virginia negroes are generally better tempered than any other people; they are kindly, grateful, attached to persons and places, enduring and patient in fatigue and hardship, contented and cheerful. Their control should be uniform and consistent, not an alternation of rigor and laxity. Punishment for real faults should be invariable but moderate.
Althea was accustomed to these assaults and met them with weary dignity, at times expostulating: 'It is all very well for you, Aunt Julia, who have Uncle Tom and the girls; I have nobody, and all my friends are married. But this brought upon her an invariable retort: 'Well, why don't you get married then?
They wished to banish it altogether from the scientific vocabulary, and to substitute for the terms cause and effect, antecedent and consequent, reducing causation to conjunction. But it was generally admitted that, where we have to deal with an invariable antecedent followed by an invariable consequent, nothing was to be gained by a change in the common phraseology.
It was not without reason that Lord Rothie had teased his hostess about receiving foot-passengers, for to such it was her invariable custom to make some civil excuse, sending Meg or Peggy to show them over the way to the hostelry next in rank, a proceeding recognized by the inferior hostess as both just and friendly, for the good woman never thought of measuring The Star against The Boar's Head.
