It is the τετράγωνος of the Peripatetic, and has the “nil admirari” of the Stoic,— Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas, Atque metus omnes, et inexorabile fatum Subjecit pedibus, strepitumque Acherontis avari.
You'll never make me understand how you came to render yourself so odiously notorious in Brittany." "Ah, not odiously, monsieur!" "Certainly, odiously among those that matter. It is said even that you were Omnes Omnibus, though that I cannot, will not believe." "Yet it is true." M. de Kercadiou choked. "And you confess it? You dare to confess it?"
Then, too, it should be something like a water-party or a fête champêtre, where colds abound and fits are always caught, so that a consideration for the old and the infirm may authorise us not to invite them; then, too Omnes. 'Bravo! bravo! St. James. It shall be! it shall be! 'It must be a fête champêtre, said Annesley, decidedly, 'and as far from town as possible.
The Ray lessened in brilliancy and gradually diminished till it entirely vanished, and Don Aloysius, with the rapt expression of a saint and visionary, entered the chapel where his brethren were already assembled, and chanted with them "Magna opera Domini; exquisita in omnes voluntates ejus!"
The history of philosophy and the sort of scepticism by which I had been caught rather maintained me within the limits of Christianity than drove me beyond them. I often repeated to myself the lines which I had read in Brucker: "Percurri, fateor, sectas attentius omnes, Plurima qusesivi, per singula quaque cucurri, Nee quidquam invent melius quam credere Christo."

Yes, some things, but not all things. We all know men and women who hate to admit their ignorance of anything.
From this specimen of discipline may be learned the entire Barkerian system of training. I was about to say, "ex uno disce omnes," but, as it's the only Latin I remember from the lot which got rubbed into or rather over me at Barker's, I'm rather sparing of it, not knowing but I can bring it in somewhere else with better effect.
Head suddenly enlarges, grows to the size of a house, tries to bite off head of samurai. Samurai slashes it with his sword. Head rolls backward, spitting fire, and vanishes. Finis. Exeunt omnes. The vision of the samurai and the goblin reminded Kinjuro of a queer tale, which he began to tell me as soon as the shadow-play was over.
Study the Master yourself: and let me by all means advise your wisdom to detect a mystery in 'Hamlet, and to essay the solution of the same. Nobody else has done so, of course, and it will become your long head. 'Semel insanivimus omnes, I suppose, and Hamlet and the Apocalypse offer rare opportunities."
