"I must say it, stern necessity compels, if I don't I'll be very unhappy." "I wouldn't have you miserable." "I want to tell you, Julie, that you are overwhelmingly beautiful tonight." "I've always heard that Americans were very bold, it's true." "But remember the provocation, Julie." "Ah, sir, I have no protection and you take advantage of it." "There's Suzanne." "But she's in the kitchen."
It does not mean my freedom, but the freedom of some power which governs and compels me; it means that one of my masters, such as State, religion, or conscience, is free. State, religion, and conscience, these despots make me a slave, and their freedom is my slavery."
In the country, a life under minute observation as keen as an Indian's compels a woman either to keep on the rails or to start aside like a steam engine wrecked by an obstacle. The strategies of love, the coquetting which form half the composition of a Parisian woman, are utterly unknown here." "That is true," said Lousteau.
The gates were open, and one passing through seemed to John like an angel, and obeying the instinct which compels the hunted animal to seek refuge in the earth, he entered, and threw himself on his knees.

Himself a master of debate, he said, "He that wrestles with us strengthens our nerves and sharpens our skill. Our antagonist is our helper. This amiable conflict with difficulty obliges us to have an intimate acquaintance with our subject, and compels us to consider it in all its relations. It will not suffer us to be superficial."
This popular faith in the elemental qualities of your character is the foundation of success, and usually it requires years to establish that. You are at no disadvantage because the people do not have for you that admiration which the doing of things compels. The fact that your neighbors do not suspect your potentialities is really an advantage.
The scenery possessed that singular expectancy that compels one to turn around every few moments to convince one's self that an unfriendly watcher is not immediately in the rear. Still keeping in the shadows, we circled the camp till we were in front of the stone table, but just when I took a step into the moonlight space before it, Holman grasped my arm and drew me back. "Look!" he gurgled.
The force of the act is that it commits the country to this justice, that it compels the innumerable officers, civil, military, naval, of the Republic to range themselves on the line of this equity.
