I'd like to bring Jeanie up here, and join George in the carrying business. It's going to be a big thing, I can see. You might marry Gracey, and look after both places while we were away. 'And how about Kate? 'The devil take her! and then he'd have a bargain. I wish you'd never dropped across her, and that she wasn't Jeanie's sister, blurts out Jim.
He has made a damaging admission, and one that places him in a compromising position. He quickly blurts forth a denial. "No, no! It wasn't then. I misremembered. 'Twas when we went over the first time. He says to me right there at Boonsboro' " "You're lying, Rix," interposed the senior officer of the party, who has been an absorbed listener.
At length one of the Council becomes offended at his daring frankness, and blurts forth in "statesmanlike" anger: "What signifies, after all, the death of General Bonaparte? It rids us of an implacable enemy." This noble expression of opinion was given three days after George IV. had deplored the death of Napoleon.
"Shiver my soul," blurts out Ben, "I haven't a tongue like an eel, but that's what I mean; and I'm king here, and welcome to you, Radisson!" "And that's what I mean," laughed M. Radisson, with a bow, quietly motioning us to follow ashore. "No need to conquer where one is master, and welcome to you, Captain Gillam!"
"I don't believe the boy ever spoke spontaneously from the time he learned to talk, but that every word he says is weighed before it passes through his lips, and its effect calculated; whereas Frank never thinks at all, but just blurts out the words which come to hand.
Hermotimus, I cannot show what truth is, so well as wise people like you and your professor; but one thing I do know about it, and that is that it is not pleasant to the ear; falsehood is far more esteemed; it is prettier, and therefore pleasanter; while Truth, conscious of its purity, blurts out downright remarks, and offends people.
Reporters become star reporters because they observe things that other people miss and because they do not let it appear that they have observed them. When the great man who is being interviewed blurts out that which is indiscreet but most important, the cub reporter says: "That's most interesting, sir. I'll make a note of that." And so warns the great man into silence.
He was a staff officer before in the Topographical Corps. Didn't you notice the T.C. on his coat buttons?" "And is he going to practise upon us?" blurts out a bustling red-faced little Irish corporal. "Be Jabers, that accounts for the crooked cow road we have marched through the last day miles out of the way, and niver a chance for coffee."
"That's Trueman, or I'm a liar!" shouts an Irishman. "That's who it is," blurts a man beside him. "What is he doing down here? I thought he was to speak on West Street?" Some of the men in the crowd now begin cheering. They cry: "Trueman! Trueman! Rah! rah! rah! Speech! speech!" The proper moment has arrived. Trueman takes off his hat and waves it as a sign for silence.
It is five-and-twenty years since I was last in Venice, and I can truly say that it has not improved in that long time. The loss of the great Campanile of St. Mark is not compensated for by the gain of the penny steamer which frets and fusses its prosaic way along the Grand Canal, or blurts its noisome smoke in the very face of the Palace of the Doges. Well!
