You do not mean it, I know; but there is a disingenuousness in remarks of this sort that is to me exceedingly distasteful. Avoid the shadow of hypocrisy. Women are subject to it and it is quite innocent, no doubt. I won't lecture you. "My cousin Algernon is here with me. He has not spoken of your sister. Your fears in that direction are quite unnecessary.
Whatever his disingenuousness towards Davison, whatever his disobedience to Elizabeth, however ambitious his own secret motives may, have been, there is no doubt at all that thus far he had borne himself well in his great office. Richard Cavendish than whom few had better opportunities of judging spoke in strong language on the subject.
Which of them concocted plans that brought on the suicidal wishes of another, a more indirect and sophisticated form of murder, and by its disingenuousness a worse form.
Disingenuousness and double dealing seemed to meet him at every turn. These letters were but the vehicle for gallantry and trick. It was a child's play, chosen to conceal a deeper game on Frank Churchill's part. With great indignation did he continue to observe him; with great alarm and distrust, to observe also his two blinded companions.
He was an unusual man, a new type, this senator from Fraser, with his alternating candor and disingenuousness, his prompt solutions of perplexing problems.

Even if he had told the truth about Joe's hand, ought Frank to have been influenced by it? He had no right to that knowledge, and to take advantage of it was dishonest. No doubt Frank himself thought so, now he reflected upon it. To accuse Jack was to confess his own disingenuousness.

You said disingenuousness. 'What if I did? 'There is no "if" in the case. You did. 'I did, then. And what of it? 'What of it? says Mr Lammle. 'Have you the face to utter the word to me?
It is only contemptible disingenuousness or weakly sentimentality, which can fail to perceive that the Romans were entirely in earnest with the liberation of Greece; and the reason why the plan so nobly projected resulted in so sorry a structure, is to be sought only in the complete moral and political disorganization of the Hellenic nation.
Turin, with its houses, belongs to the Turinese; therefore the Turinese have the right to divide or unite the houses of Turin, or drive out their possessors, as seems good in their own sight." The gross disingenuousness, the palpable quibble in this argument, need no exposure. Logically, however, the argument is rather above the usual range.
But for the terms in which the President has disposed of his third topic, the Kansas difficulty, we can scarcely characterize their disingenuousness and meanings. We have already spoken of the object of this part of the document as atrocious, and we repeat the word, as the most befitting that could be used.
