"The more there is of it, the better if it comes naturally, and people know enough to understand that it is moonshine, and isn't the be-all and end-all of everything." "There's a lover for you!" Miss Madden cried, with mirth and derision mingled in her laugh. "Don't you worry about me," he told her. "I'm a good enough lover, all right.
A man knows unconsciously what he can and what he can't do, without losing his self-respect. He sucks that knowledge in with every breath. Laws and authority are not the be-all and end-all, they are conveniences, machinery, conduit pipes, main roads. They're not of the structure of the building they're only scaffolding." Miltoun lunged out with the retort
In his eyes the be-all and end-all of a true sportsman is to purchase the orthodox equipment of a green-trimmed coat, Tyrolese hat, and long boots, and to pay his subscription to a shooting club.
The Minerva Courtier thus had good reason to hope that the supply of liquid refreshment would bear some relation to the demand; and that the march of modern progress would continue to diminish the distance between his own mouth and that of the bottle, which, as he took it, was the be-all and end-all of existence.
What was the good of all that excitement that agony of self-reproach for little things? None at all, if the object is only to be an ordinary good sort of man if a decent fulfilment of the round of common duties is the be-all and the end-all of human life on earth. The plague came by-and-by into the town.

He could not bear that there should be no further outcome of his labour; that the burying of the dead out of sight should be "the be-all and the end-all." He was God's vicar, the gardener in God's Acre, as the Germans call the churchyard.
M'Loughlin made service a great factor in the game. It remained for R. N. Williams to supply the antidote that has again put service in the normal position of mere importance, not omnipotence. Williams stood in on the delivery and took it on the rising bound. Service must be speedy. Yet speed is not the be-all and end-all. Service must be accurate, reliable, and varied.
And it was his will to subjugate Matter to his own ends. The subjugation itself was the point, the fight was the be-all, the fruits of victory were mere results. It was not for the sake of money that Gerald took over the mines. He did not care about money, fundamentally. He was neither ostentatious nor luxurious, neither did he care about social position, not finally.
Thinking Germany has fallen a victim to the teachings of Treitschke and Nietzsche Treitschke with his Macchiavellian doctrine that "Power is the end-all and be-all of a State," Nietzsche with his contempt for pity and the gentler virtues, his admiration for "valour," and his disdain for Christianity. This explanation is too simple to fit the facts.
In short, she is the be-all and the end-all of your existence, and you don't even know her name, though you fear it may be Schmidt." He lolled back at ease on the marble bench, and twirled his yellow-red moustaches, fancy free. "But you do know her name," said Annunziata, simply, in her deepest voice, holding him with a gaze, lucent and serious, that seemed almost reproachful.
