I rather liked him. He's smart, isn't he?" "Very," said March. "But I don't know where he is. I don't know that he would go into the country . But he might, if " They entered provisionally into the case, and for argument's sake supposed that Burnamy would take hold of the major's paper if he could be got at.
"You think that, were he guilty I am speaking only for argument's sake," she breathed in her emotion, "you think, were I cognizant of it, I ought to betray him; to make it known to the world?" "I do not say that, Constance. No.
Very well, then. Supposing for argument's sake that Mrs. Cowperwood was not insane; that every word she said was true; that I had been misconducting myself with your wife? What of it? What will you do?" He looked at Sohlberg smoothly, ironically, while the latter flared up. "Haw!" he shouted, melodramatically. "Why, I would keel you, that's what I would do. I would keel her.
I am, however, willing for argument's sake to postpone all such questions, vital as they are, to the time when they can be practically dealt with. I am ready to assume that the wit of man can devise a settlement of many points which seemed insoluble in Mr. Gladstone's day.

I have offended you." "You have not offended me," she said quietly.

Ten million tradesmen go to make Man himself; but humanity consists of tradesmen when they are not talking shop.
