The idea of the infinite is in me like that of numbers, lines, circles, a whole, and a part. The changing our ideas would be, in effect, the annihilating reason itself. Let us judge and make an estimate of our greatness by the immutable infinite stamp within us, and which can never be defaced from our minds.
That is the sort of knowledge which, once obtained, is a life-long possession. Other occupations may fill your minds it may grow dim, and seem to be forgotten but there it is, like the inscription on a battered and defaced coin, which comes out when you warm it.
After this public canine funeral celebration of the one and indivisible republic, the gilded state-coaches could not be consistently used for any human and less mournful occasion, and hence it was that the consular procession to the Tuileries was so deficient in carriages, and that public hacks on which the numbers were defaced had to be employed.
In Diana, as in hundreds and thousands of her fellows, it had become unconsciously without the torment and struggle of an older generation Poetry and Idea; and all the more invincible thereby. Above her head, Poverty, gaunt and terrible in her white robe, her skirt torn with brambles, and her poor cheek defaced by the great iron hook which formerly upheld the Sanctuary lamp, married with St.
Don't you think, Laura, that an India scarf is always handsome?" "Always handsome? What! all colors and qualities?" "Of course not. I mean a handsome one, like Louisa Russell's." "Why, yes, Del. A handsome scarf is always handsome, that is, until it is defaced or worn out. What a literal mood you are in just now!"
Those who had most pretension to their dress wore swallow-tail coats or surtouts of blue or green cloth, more or less defaced. These last, evidently characters, marched in boots of various kinds, swinging heavy canes with the air and manner of those who take heart under misfortune.
The canvas of the altar-piece has fallen like a covering over the altar, screening and preserving it, so that its beautiful marble and alabaster sculptures still retain their integrity; but the picture itself crumbled to pieces as we touched it, and the other paintings, of which there are a great number, are all in much the same state black, defaced and destroyed beyond recognition or hope of restoration.
"Maisie if it is so what will you do?" "Do? There's only one thing I can do." She turned to him, and her milk-white face was grey-white, ashen; the skin had a slack, pitted look, suddenly old. The soft flesh trembled. But her mouth and eyes were still. In this moment of her agony no base emotion defaced their sweetness, so that she seemed to him utterly composed. She had seen what she could do.
There still remains, however, in the family of the Heathcotes, an orderly-book of a troop of horse, which tradition says had some connexion with his fortunes. Affixed to this defaced and imperfect document, is a fragment of some diary or journal, which has reference to the condemnation of Charles I. to the scaffold.
No man would endure a woman with a withered stump of a right hand, not to mention the ugly scar that defaced her body. Thus the world of sex shut out with all its related disturbances, she became by the process of intense specialization a most efficient worker. It is not necessary to recount all the steps of her progress upward.
