"One takes one's line and there's an end. Personally I believe that we are overstrained with the fearful and anxious work of this flotation, and have been the victims of an hallucination and a coincidence. Although I confess that I came to look upon the thing as a kind of mascot, I put no trust in any fetish. How can a bit of gold move, and how can it know the future?
His only trouble was the thought that perhaps the expedition of the Flying Legion had ended before it had really begun. "What chance, sir?" he insisted. "It's damned bad, according to my way of thinking." "What you think and what you say won't have any weight with this problem of aerial flotation," the Master curtly retorted. "If we make land, we make it, that's all, sir."
I lay on the cold stone breathing hard for several minutes; then I managed to drag the light shell out and empty her, after which I tore up a strip of the cedar flooring to form a paddle, and found that though one side was crushed the damage was mostly above flotation level.
In the feverish days that preceded the outbreak of the Cuban war, he heard rumors that Porter had been caught in the last big "flotation," and was heavily involved. But the excitement of those days destroyed the importance of the news to the public and to him. Sommers resolved to find service in one of the military hospitals that before long became notorious as pestholes.
"An unsinkable ship is possible, but it would be of little use except for flotation. It may be said that vessels cannot be built to withstand such an accident.

Larssen did not answer, but Olive rejoined sharply: "What does it matter if it helps to get the flotation off and make money?" "Well, perhaps so. Still " "Can you fix up St Aubyn and Carleton-Wingate?" asked Larssen. "Quickly?" "Yes, I expect so. But has Clifford approved this scheme?" "Of course."
Russia undertook to lend her at the phenomenally low rate of 4 per cent the sum of 16,000,000 pounds sterling the interest and capital of which the Tsar's Government guaranteed to the French bankers undertaking the flotation.

"I sat up in bed and worked out details for the flotation of the Radium Company in which I have an interest." Hipps looked at Van Diest, shook his head and tapped his brow. "Sure it's the heat," he said. "There ain't going to be any flotation that I've heard of." "Think not? It would be a pity if you gentlemen gave way to overmuch expression of optimism.
