It seems incredible that the mere pulling of a trigger by a Servian student and the slaughter of an archduke in the Bosnian capital could in a month's time have plunged all Europe into war. From small causes great events may rise. Certainly that with which we are here dealing strikingly illustrates this homely apothegm.
Moreover, that solid apothegm, 'haereticis non servanda fides, the most serviceable anchor ever forged for true believers, was always ready to be thrown out, should storm or quicksand threaten, during the intricate voyage to be now undertaken. John Neyen soon returned to the Hague, having persuaded his masters that it was best to affect compliance with the preliminary demand of the States.

All I say is, 'Dem as libs longest will see most!" said Wool, shaking his white head. After which undeniable apothegm the conversation came to a stand.
"What a nice apothegm! It makes religion so easy and agreeable." "As easy as gravitation." "Dear me, Mr. Mavick, I thought this was a question of levitation. You are upsetting all my ideas. I shall not have the comfort of repenting of this episode in Lent." "Oh yes; you can be sorry that the dancing was not more alluring." Meantime there was heard the popping of corks.
"Confound the fellow! he's a walking apothegm as consequential as a syllogism!" muttered Harry; "but come now, Frank, let us have the inexpressive she, without backing and filling any longer." "Upon my word, Harry, it is out of my power; but, in a few weeks, I hope to" said Elliot.
The lies that have been put into their mouths for this purpose are endless. The prime minister, whose last breath was spent in scolding his nurse, dies with a magnificent apothegm on his lips, manufactured by a reporter. Addison gets up a tableau and utters an admirable sentiment, or somebody makes the posthumous dying epigram for him.
An old medical apothegm personifies the hygienic forces as the Doctors Air, Diet, Exercise, and Quiet: and these four will be found, on reflection, to cover the whole ground of what is required to preserve human health.
At this somewhat cryptic apothegm Mr. Latz's knee touched Mrs. Samstag's, so that he sprang back full of nerves at what he had not intended. "Marry me, Carrie," he said, more abruptly than he might have, without the act of that knee to immediately justify. She spread the lace out on her lap.
Eyes met eyes, and without a word spoken all was comprehended and silently approved. There was no nonsense uttered about morality in connection with dealing. Mr. Miller took an enormous pinch of snuff, and drew for the benefit of all present the following inference: MR. MILLER'S APOTHEGM.
