"That argument," stated the little Wizard, "convinces me that it is our duty to go straight to those unknown places, however dangerous they may be, for it is surely some cruel and wicked person who has stolen our Ozma, and we know it would be folly to search among good people for the culprit.
My experience in securing money convinces me that the first type of man is growing more rare all the time, and that the latter type is increasing; that is, that, more and more, rich people are coming to regard men and women who apply to them for help for worthy objects, not as beggars, but as agents for doing their work.
The description of the literary belle, “Daphne,” well prefaces that of “Stella,” admired by Johnson: “With legs toss’d high, on her sophee she sits, Vouchsafing audience to contending wits: Of each performance she’s the final test; One act read o’er, she prophecies the rest; And then, pronouncing with decisive air, Fully convinces all the town—she’s fair.
Flint, prompted by Deever, told exactly the same story. "Therefore, Deever must have known precisely what the facts were. Investigation convinces me that he could have known them in only one way by being himself the person who performed the acts described."

"I leave off writing, I write such stuff; and if I go on writing to you, I shall be putting these things ! ! ! The way you write about Mrs. Lovell, convinces me you are not in my scrape, or else gentlemen are just as different from their inferiors as ladies are from theirs. That's the question.
Lorimer, I am still prepared to listen quietly to what you have to say. What convinces you that Miss King isn't Mrs. Lorimer?" "The woman herself. I know she isn't a murderess. She can't possibly be, and no amount of evidence will make me think she is."
Onest before the mornin' light The Horseman will come ridin' Roun' an' roun' the Fairy Lough, An' no one there to see. But there will be some one there, and that is the aforesaid Jamesy Flanigan! Sometimes I think he is fibbing, but a glance at his soft, dark, far-seeing eyes under their fringe of thick lashes convinces me to the contrary.
The afternoon wore on, and with the awe, born of the White Silence, the voiceless travelers bent to their work. Nature has many tricks wherewith she convinces man of his finity the ceaseless flow of the tides, the fury of the storm, the shock of the earthquake, the long roll of heaven's artillery but the most tremendous, the most stupefying of all, is the passive phase of the White Silence.
