His eyes are full of a vision before which the multitude of human possessions fade. He is engaged in a contest wherein his soul must either overcome or perish everlastingly; and we may suppose that, even if the soul were not immortal, it would still be worth the saving. It is true that in this happy country examples of ascetic frenzy are comparatively rare.
How, mournful then is the silence of the innumerable, gray stones and monstrous rocks which try to speak to us like creatures once eloquent and possessing the knowledge of wondrous changes, and the key to problems that everlastingly distress the human mind, but on which the curse of dumbness has lain for ages!
Every time he put up something utterly unsalable, he would look over at me, nod, and say: "Thank you, John; did you say fifty cents?" or "Did I hear you say a dollar? A dollar dollar going, gone to our friend and patron, John Flutter, Jr.," and some of the lady managers would "make a note of it," and I was too everlastingly embarrassed to deny it.
"Pretty soon they'll crowd us off of that." "There won't be any stoop in the valley of the moon," Saxon cheered him. But he was inconsolable, remarking bitterly: "An' they ain't one of them damn foreigners that can handle four horses like me. "But they can everlastingly farm," he added.
Perhaps I had a little fever too. One can't live with one's finger everlastingly on one's pulse. I had often 'a little fever, or a little touch of other things the playful paw-strokes of the wilderness, the preliminary trifling before the more serious onslaught which came in due course.

He's everlastingly writing, too, every chance he finds." "Oh, he fancies he has literary talent," said Flagg, "and he's forever sending off the results of his labors.

"The doctor says he will be," said Raymond, "and I know that one or two of his pieces have been accepted by the magazines and paid for, too.

He paused a moment, then added slowly, "Moreover, those who have been there once may find their way there again some day." Another rocket soared high into the night and broke in a golden rain. From a few yards away came Nick's cracked laugh and careless speech. "Here comes the chota-bursat, Daisy!
Once possessed by an idea the madman will not forget it. It becomes an obsession with him a part of his existence. In his warped brain a suspicion never dies. A fear will smolder everlastingly. A hatred lives steadily on. If Bram Johnson was mad would he play the game as he was playing it now! He had almost killed Philip for possession of the food, that the girl might have the last crumb of it.
Some trifling differences arising in the congregation, to which the human mind is everlastingly prone, caused discontent: Individuals began to sting each other, which in 1745, produced a swarm.
