Macaulay has been induced to re-write what had already been so often and even so recently written among others, by Dalrymple, a strenuous but honest Whig, and by Mr. Macaulay's own oracles, Fox and Mackintosh? It may be answered that both Fox and Mackintosh left their works imperfect.
How long could she maintain existence on the market price of a three-volume novel? It was clear that, unless she was prepared to live on bread-and-cheese, she could not afford to re-write anything.
Now, is it wonderful that that pen of his should sometimes be at fault for a while,—that it should pause, write, erase, re-write, amend, complete, before he satisfies himself that his language has done justice to the conceptions which his mind’s eye contemplated?
It's with O'Leary in the grave. Romantic Ireland's dead and gone. Henry nodded his head. "Well, we're going to see whether we can't make Yeats re-write it. Good-night, Henry!"
Were it not for a silly phrase about George Eliot, who surely was no more than one of those dull clever people, unlit by any ray of genius, I might say with Swinburne I have nothing to regret, nothing to withdraw.

That's why they pay re-write men. We're reporters. We report. O.K.?" He went back to his cards. At 11:40 a light at the end of the second row turned pinkish but no reading showed on the dial below.
