Someone snarled, "Nuts to that!" Joe saw a man walking in the same direction as himself. He was walking deliberately back to the Platform. Somebody else was headed back too.... Very peculiarly, almost all the men on the floor had ceased to run. They began to gather in little groups. They knew flight was useless. They talked briefly. Profanely.
With him also, I say it not profanely, one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. This account of his occupation increased the interest his look had excited in me, and I have observed him more particularly and found out more about him.
She told me that vast treasures were known to exist in a situation which she mentioned, if I remember rightly, as being near Suez; that Napoleon, profanely brave, thrust his arm into the cave containing the coveted gold, and that instantly his flesh became palsied.
The sponsorial appellation is generally meaningless, fished piously out of Scripture or profanely out of plays and novels, or given with an eye to future legacies, or for some equally insufficient reason apart from the name itself. So that the gentleman who named his children One, Two, and Three, was only reducing to its lowest term the prevailing practice. But the nickname abides.
And it will be dangerous to try to trick me: I am going!" For he was protesting, violently and profanely. His profanity was so sincere, so earnest, so heartfelt, that it mounted into heights of real eloquence. Also, he did everything but knock me down and lock me indoors. "Whatever happens to you happens to me," I repeated doggedly, and I was not to be moved.
The one man in the secret profanely declared that if Vaniman made an attempt to communicate with any person in the world until their particular business had been settled, the whole project was in danger. "I don't care how much dependence you put in your mother's good sense. She's a woman, and women slop over when they're all wowed up! She'd have to tell your sister, wouldn't she?
As he stepped forward he saw Greasy grin maliciously and try to snatch a gun from the holster of a cowboy who stood near him. This attempt was frustrated by the puncher, who suddenly dropped his hand to his holster, where it closed upon Greasy's. The puncher snarled, muttered profanely, and struck furiously at Greasy, knocking him down in a corner. Other men moved.
Three times in as many weeks strangers drifting in from other localities stopped in Coldriver and profanely reported the fact that for no reason whatever, while passing through the Three Bar range, they had been held up and forced to state their business in that neighborhood. Hostilities had ceased.
"Here," said he, "is a man who beats a big drum under my windows, and when I come running down stairs has nowhere for me to go." A wild Republican said profanely, that Louis Blanc was "next to Jesus Christ" "On which side?" asked the wit. Pretty Miss , the actress, being mentioned, he praised her early beauty.
I should eat Japanese food profanely dubbed "chow-chow;" sleep in Japanese beds on the floor; talk Japanese as musical as Italian; and live so much like an old-time native that I should feel as one born on the soil.
