'Without a diplomatic existence, they are nullities. England will hold all the recognise powers in the vicinity responsible. You will see! The murder of an English prince, under such circumstances too, will not pass unavenged. The whole of the Turkish garrison of the city will march out directly into the desert.
By means of this variation, unimportant as it might appear, the Government was always in the place where the First Consul happened to be. The two other Consuls were now mere nullities, even in appearance.
Apology never dropped her slippery oil on his lips never proffered, by his pen, her coward feints and paltry nullities: he would give neither a stone, nor an excuse neither a scorpion; nor a disappointment; his letters were real food that nourished, living water that refreshed. And was I grateful? God knows!
The usurpations and acts of the rebels were considered not legal acts, but nullities. Out of the dreary distance and the dark I stretch forth praying palms yet not to pray; Hands fold themselves for heaven, while mine, alas! Are sundered held your way.
Without for a single moment falling off into the nullities of pantheism, neither did he for a single moment suffer his thought to stiffen and grow hard in the formal lines of a theological definition or a systematic credo.

Good-by, Mr.
Everywhere it greets us with a passionate preference; not flowers but leaves of grass, not music but drum-taps, not composition but aggregation, not the hero but the average man, not the crisis but the vulgarest moment; and by this resolute marshalling of nullities, by this effort to show us everything as a momentary pulsation of a liquid and structureless whole, he profoundly stirs the imagination.
It is a bulky treatise, consisting, in the original edition, of 104 small quarto pages; of which 6, not numbered, are occupied with a Dedication to Parliament, and the remaining 98 are numbered and form the body of the work. The following is the complete title: TETRACHORDON: Expositions upon the foure chief places in Scripture, which treat of Marriage, or nullities in Marriage.
What is theoretic in a constitution is unreal. The constitutions conceived by philosophers in their closets are constitutions only of Utopia or Dreamland.
