"But one may be an exceptional woman without being an Aspasia." "How so? Am I inferior to Aspasia in beauty?" "I should hope not," said Plotinus ambiguously. "Or in the irregularity of my deportment?" "I should think not," said Plotinus, with more confidence. "Then why does the Plato of our age hesitate to welcome his Diotima?" "Because," said Plotinus, "you are not Diotima, and I am not Plato."
She accepted the letters, which, however, owing to a bad cold with a defluxion in the eyes, she was unable at once to read; but she talked ambiguously with the messenger. Yavasour took pains to show the immediate necessity of sending supplies, so that the armies in the Netherlands might take the field at the, earliest possible moment.
This paper published a "story," as a newspaper would call it, which was told so ambiguously and with such skill as to preclude any possibility of a libelous action, while the suggestions it contained were so strongly made that the article was entertaining, at least, and it supplied, in many quarters, an opportunity for discussion and gossip.
It was a tardy sense of justice that expressed itself a few years ago in erecting on Star Island a simple marble shaft to the memory of JOHN SMITH the multitudinous! Perhaps this long delay is explained by a natural hesitation to label a monument so ambiguously.
For years the Press of all the Western democracies has been drifting slowly away from the tradition it lasted longest and was developed most completely in Great Britain that-newspapers were party organs. In the novels of Disraeli the Press appears as an ambiguously helpful person who is asked out to dinner, who is even admitted to week-end conferences, by the political great.
Why, I give a pound for it myself at Christie's, as sure as I'm standin' 'ere in the presence o' my Maker, and you a sinner!" he declared impressively, if rather ambiguously. "Your memory is not quite accurate," said Horace. "You bought it last night from a man of the name of Rapkin, who lets lodgings in Vincent Square, and you paid exactly half a crown for it."
In being disposed to found it upon undemonstrated theories, they founded it upon nothing; in deriving it from imaginary sources, of which each individual forms to himself his own notion, generally adverse to that of his neighbour; in resting it upon obscure oracles, always delivered ambiguously, frequently interpreted by men in the height of delirium, sometimes by knaves, who had immediate interests to promote, they rendered it unsteady devoid of fixed principle, too frequently left it to the mercy of the most crafty of mankind.
He has let me study what will be of most use to me afterwards, and he takes as much interest in my future as I do myself. How can I speak anything but well of him? What I certainly didn't do, was to go to him and talk ambiguously about feeling dissatisfied with him ..." "With myself, Madeleine. Haven't I made that clear?" But Madeleine only sniffed.
Bert began to comprehend the situation. He regarded the Asiatic machine. The habits of Bun Hill returned to him. "It's a foreign make," he said ambiguously. The two Germans consulted. "You are an expert?" said the Prince. "We reckon to repair," said Bert, in the exact manner of Grubb. The Prince sought in his vocabulary. "Is dat," he said, "goot to fly?"
"Well, I have been in some measure wasting my sweetness on the desert air," Valentine answered carelessly. "There is money to be picked up by better dodges than promoting," replied the attorney ambiguously; "but I suppose you wouldn't care for anything that didn't bring immediate cash? You wouldn't care to speculate the chances, however well the business might promise?" "C'est selon!
