Blackberry canes grow so rankly and bear such brutal thorns that the annual crop seems hardly worth the torn clothing and bad scratches that gathering them entails, especially as they are to be had at such reasonable prices in the average market. Blueberries are another matter.
Renounce all abstruse thinking, all day-dreaming, all sorrowful remembering, all sentimental musing look upon application, exercise, work, as a duty and a medicine, and I will answer for your expelling from your mind that dreadful purpose that entails upon you misery, and disgraces the nature of man."
But nowadays, with police courts and all that, it entails much more subsequent annoyance than it is worth. Be wise, Olga!" "Some things, Ste. Marie," said the golden lady, "are worth all the consequences that may follow them."
For beyond the satisfaction of some real and natural necessities, all that the possession of wealth can achieve has a very small influence upon our happiness, in the proper sense of the word; indeed, wealth rather disturbs it, because the preservation of property entails a great many unavoidable anxieties.

Then without warning he launches himself on a sharply ascending spiral, his wings whistling through the gloom.
