But now, suppose the panic wave a little more universal and panic waves tend to be more extensive than they used to be. Suppose that when securities fall all round, and gold appreciates in New York, and frightened people begin to sell investments and hoard gold, the same thing happens in other parts of the world.
He is very learned, and has a great desire for information; he appreciates a great many of my remarks, and after dinner, in the salon, he often comes to me to ask me questions about them. I have to think a little, sometimes, to know what I did say, or what I do think. He takes you right up where you left off; and he is almost as fond of discussing things as William Platt is.
"Ah, but you are the clever ones!" bubbled Adrienne. "It is we who must be proud of you. I would that ma mère could see these frocks. She would, of a certainty, rave with the delight. Ma mère, you must know, is the true Frenchwoman who appreciates highly the beautiful handwork such as this." "You rather take us off our feet," smiled Marie. "We were not expecting it, you know."
But indeed it's only a sort of artlessness if you see the thing properly.... It's not vulgarity it's childishness.... They've hardly got over it yet their intense astonishment at being any good at war.... That large throaty Victory! She's not so militant as she seems. She's too plump.... Of course what a German really appreciates is nutrition.
These sketches, by just a little, fail to give one a feeling of rejoicing in the author's wit: they seem bitter, strained, and, while one appreciates the justice of the serious charge, the humour which was to carry it off, becomes from time to time heavy and lifeless.
There are many fine points about the boy, and he surely appreciates your kindness. Mrs. Reilly and the children are well and join me in kind remembrance. Very respectfully, W. H. Reilly. Joe is the young man who was sentenced for ninety-nine years on circumstantial evidence, and whose story is in this book.
"I did ask the Archdeacon," said the Canon, looking up from the letter, "and he said he'd hunt up the point when he went home." "Lalage," I said, "has quite a remarkable feeling for style. See the way she writes about the 'Earthly Paradise. It must be the way you brought her up on quotations from Horace. Miss Campbell hardly appreciates her, I'm afraid.
Perhaps it is that the boisterous animal-spirits which one appreciates in the open air become vulgar and irritating when they are practised within the walls of a house. A Satyr who stretches his hairy shanks in the open forest is a pleasant thing to see; but a gentleman, with lavender-colored gloves, putting his feet on the chimney-piece is not so appealing.
"As you know, I am a very busy man, Mr. Crewe," said the railroad president. "No one appreciates that more fully than I do, Mr. Flint," said Mr. Crewe; "I haven't many idle hours myself. I think you will find the bills and my comments on them well worth your consideration from the point of view of advantage to your railroad. They are typewritten, and in concrete form.
"He was very grateful to Senator Flynn, who appreciates his talents, but who offered it to him as a mere question of fitness," replied Mrs. Ashwood with great precision of statement. "But you don't seem to know he declined it on account of his other work." "Preferred his old Bohemian ways, eh? You can't change those fellows, Conny. They can't get over the fascinations of vagabondage.
