That he had managed a win at all was barely believable; that it had happened so decisively would make this match well-remembered. And Hovan was less worried about Steve's chances in the Ordeal. Steve must truly be guided by the Lords. Tarlac returned Valkan's wrist-clasp and replied in one of the Language phrases he'd learned.
Twenty-five thousand francs savings in the service of an old savant! that is about as believable as the officer of La Dame Blanche buying a chateau with his pay." "But if I prove to you the truth of my words; if I let you put your finger upon it?" "In that case, like Saint Thomas, I shall lower my flag before the evidence.
Christina, I have been this day to Edinburgh, and I have brought home from the bank six hundred pounds." "Six hundred pounds, Andrew! It is not believable." "Whist, woman! I have six hundred pounds in my breast pocket, and I have siller in the house beside. I have sold my share in the 'Sure-Giver, and I have been saving money ever since I put on my first sea-boots."
To John Barclay's thinking the barely believable fact that this little miracle of beauty this pocket-Venus, as he was wont to call her actually belonged to him remained one of the insoluble mysteries of life.
'But what is 'the satisfactory positive evidence' that is offered me? Nothing, save an alleged subjective incapacity on the part of my opponent adequately to conceive of the fact of cosmic harmony as due to physical causation alone. "In metaphysical controversy, many of the propositions propounded and accepted as quite believable are absolutely inconceivable.
"Lunette's man-boarder there, the husban', he 's editor of a noos-sheet, and gits a thousand dollars a year 'tain't believable, but it's what they say an' he thinks he knows it all. He got Fluke to take him out in his boat; he began to direc' Fluke how to do this, an' how to do that, and squallin' and flyin' at him. Fluke sailed back with him and sot him ashore.
Gradually he grows more capable of imagining a world in which every good thing thinkable may be a fact. Best of all, the story of him who is himself the good news, the gospel of God, becomes not only more and more believable to his heart, but more and more ministrant to his life of conflict, and his assurance of a living father who hears when his children cry.
Of course it was hardly believable a woman without interest in keeping herself presentable could invent any such fabulous product, but there was a bare chance of making a few sales just on the idea. The idea. It suddenly struck me she had the whole thing backwards. Grasses, she said, and went on about wheat and corn and going out to the rubes. Southern California was dotted with lawns, wasnt it?
The extent to which the sale of woman's virtue prevails in our cities is scarcely believable. The recent commission of which Mr. Rockefeller was chairman actually counted 14,926 professional prostitutes in Manhattan alone, in 1912; while personal visitation established the existence of over sixteen hundred houses where the gratification of lust could be bought.
In fact he was not sure that he could refuse, not sure that he could invent a believable excuse for doing so. Another person would not have sought excuses, would have declared simply that the property was not for rent, but Jed Winslow was not that other person; he was himself, and ordinary methods of procedure were not his. Two or three groups of customers came in, purchased and departed.
