The situation was a stalemate with pure desperation on one side and pure frustration on the other. This was no way to end the war. Neither planet could trust the other, even for minutes. If they did not destroy each other simultaneously, as now was possible, each would expect the other to launch an unwarned attack at some other moment.
It seemed to take an iron band from his heart to know that, after all, some one had guessed and pitied.... And that it should have been his wife moved him indescribably. Dallas, for all his affectionate insight, would not have understood that. To the boy, no doubt, the episode was only a pathetic instance of vain frustration, of wasted forces. But was it really no more?
"Because you serve the Mother and you are jealous for her and her service. If Lurgha is a mighty god, you wanted to see his acts with your own eyes." When she finally answered, there was anger as well as frustration in her voice. "And you know of my shame then, Assha. For Lurgha came on a bird he came, and he did even as he said he would.
But often the implanting of an idea in the mind is more potent than the frustration of a plan or the gratification of a desire, so hidden are the causes that make character. For some time I saw little of Margaret. Affairs in which I was not alone or chiefly concerned took me from home.
It was a neat stone dwelling, with some bonnets and caps in the front window, and when the door was opened, a bell rang, and Mistress Kilgour came hastily from an inner room. She looked pleased when she saw Sophy and Christina, and said: "Come in, Christina. I am glad you brought Sophy home in such good time. For I'm in a state of perfect frustration this afternoon.
Some of the officers are asleep, sir." "Well, get on then and stop jabbering!" The guard turned quickly and started down the hall. Tom followed, hardly able to keep from smiling at the man's frustration and confusion. They stopped at the door to Captain Strong's quarters and the guard rapped softly. "Yes?" came a muffled voice from inside. "Someone to see you, sir," called the guard.
A temporary leisure may be won for the aggressor, but in the long run he will be put to greater inconvenience than he would be by a more humane method. It was repression and wilful frustration of reasonable desires which kept me a seeming maniac and made seeming maniacs of others.
At what point would you pronounce a calling frustrated? You think yours is to help your poor friends: you are not with them now: is your calling frustrated? Surely there may be delay without frustration! Or, is it for you to say when you are ready? Willingness is not everything. Might not one fancy her hour come when it was not come?
Then, crouching, he went in at the low, ill-hung door. It stuck to its sill, and he cursed it; all his movements expressed the anger of frustration. He slammed the door behind him. Buried in drifts, the cabin was dim even at this bright hour of noon. The stove glowed in a corner with a subdued redness, its bulging cheeks and round mouth dully scarlet.
"You dirty-mouthed cur," said Pan. "Get up, and if you've got a gun throw it." Hardman laboriously got to his feet. The breath had been partly knocked out of him. Baleful eyes rolled at Pan. Instinctive wrath, however, had been given a setback. Hardman had been forced to think of something beside the frustration of his imperious will. "I'm not packing my gun," he panted, heavily.
