Some dolts there be, no doubt, who would detect Anodyne influence in a barrel-organ; A febrifuge in a flat German Band, A prophylactic in a street-piano! Some quackery a man can understand, But Music I'll not take, even cum grano. I don't believe what classic noodles say, That Music stopped the hæmorrhage of ULYSSES; That CATO'S stiffened joints attained free play From harmony of sounds.
Captain Reud, Captain Reud, consider really I cannot get well so fast as that would indicate." "You must, you must. Gentlemen, no man makes better punch. Consider the punch, doctor." "Truly, that alters the case. As these dolts of surgeons could not fully understand the diagnostics of my disease, I suppose I must do my duty for the leetle while longer that I have to live.
But, added she, it was the uniform's fault; all the lads who donned the uniform became sad dolts. The fact is, his change of life had quite muddled Zephyrin, who, with his staring round eyes and solemn swagger, looked like a goose.
Human energy, equally distributed, produces dolts, mediocrity in all; unequally bestowed it gives rise to those incongruities to whom the name of Genius is given, and which, if we only could see them, would look like deformities. The same law governs the body; perfect beauty is generally allied with coldness or silliness.
He flared up as though Maurice had affronted him. "My good fellow, did you ever bear of a man worth his salt, who didn't have enemies? It's the penalty one pays: only the dolts and the 'all-too-many' are friends with the whole world. No one who has work to do that's worth doing, can avoid making enemies. And who knows what a friend is, who hasn't an enemy to match him?
"E, hitahita. Yes, we are hurrying back," the princess called vivaciously. "Those are our real men, not the Papeete dolts," she said. "If we had time, we would catch shrimp in the river. I love to do that." When we came to where the habitations began and the road became passable for vehicles, Noanoa Tiare sat down on a stone.
I thought that there was only one humorist in England. Fools! dolts! open your cows' eyes; there are two! In Notting Hill in that unpromising elevation there has been born an artist! You thought to spoil my joke, and bully me out of it, by becoming more and more modern, more and more practical, more and more bustling and rational.
"And so we were, Sir Willoughby, and we acknowledge it. We never could have guessed that!" Thus the phantom couple in the future delivered themselves, as well they might at the revelation. He could run far ahead. Ay, but to combat these dolts, facts had to be encountered, deeds done, in groaning earnest.
But he was twice the man the rest were, and his last night's victory had given him a huge preponderance on their minds. He called them all the fools and dolts you can imagine, said it was necessary I should talk to the doctor, fluttered the chart in their faces, asked them if they could afford to break the treaty the very day they were bound a-treasure-hunting.
Illiterate in all save the elementals, untouched by the larger currents of thought, drunk with their power over dolts, crazed by their immunity to challenge by their betters, they carry over into the professional class of the country the spirit of the most stupid peasantry, and degrade religion to the estate of an idiotic phobia.
