But there is an impartiality which ends in utter injustice; which by saying carelessly to every quarrel, 'Both are right, and both are wrong, leaves only the impression that all men are wrong, and ends by being unjust to every one. So has Elizabeth and Essex's quarrel been treated. There was some evil in Essex; therefore Elizabeth was a fool for liking him.
"Well," he said, and he looked at her questioningly, and not liking to tell her in so many words that he had come to Dulwich to see her, he entered into the question of the text of the hymn, which was imperfect. Many notes were missing, and had been conjecturely added by a French musician, and he had wished to consult Mr. Innes about them.
His words carried with them a world of hope, and suddenly I felt as if some great blessing were perhaps hovering above, like the big, circling sea-birds, and might descend to me. Then Dr. Johnson came out and greeted the little parson, who has taken a great liking to him.
He delighted in the good things of the world; no one could order a dinner better; no one could better judge a picture; no one had a more pure and hearty liking for pretty faces; and it must be added, that few men had more worldly wisdom of the kind needed for everyday use.
I think he was hardly aware how much he was implying, at least not in its relation to her, else he would not have said it.

"I was sorry that Andy broke your model satellite but now I'm not." "Who cares?" "Make Jerry stop being so aggravating," Cathy begged her mother. "Come on. We haven't time to try to reform your brother this morning.
