Sonny's handicap, if you call it that, cuts him off from feel-thinking; he can think logically instead of sensually." He sipped his cocktail and continued: "I can understand why the village is mounded up, too. I realized that while I was watching Dave's gang bury the pump house.
Let the evil be endured a while that the greater evil might not come. I neither defend nor denounce him. I am now only remembering; and what a stately and solemn image it is to remember! William H. Seward, unlike Webster, had the handicap of an unimpressive exterior, nor had his voice the profound and conquering note which is so potent an ally of the mind in subduing men.
Irregularity of work is undoubtedly a great handicap to the workman who seeks to maintain a well ordered life. Extra payment for irregularity of employment is a burden which can fairly be put upon an industry, or section of an industry even if the irregularity is unavoidable. Yet the consequences of such a policy of "nominal variation" may be undesirable.
He had met her first at the Carter Handicap, and, as he confided to himself: "She was a spanking filly, of good stock, and with good straight legs." His sincere desire to "butt into the Desha family" he kept for the moment to himself. But as a preliminary maneuver he had intimated that a visit to the Desha home would not come in amiss.

But now he was no longer racing to kill the King; he was running in terror.
But he was proud of his health and strength his shooting and the steady lowering of his golf handicap. He was proud also of certain practical aptitudes he possessed, and would soon allow no one to interfere with him hardly to advise him in the management of his estate. He liked nothing better than to plan the rebuilding of a farm, or a set of new cottages.
He dropped his gun and put down the shore like a wild man, with Lonesome after him. I tried to foller, but my rheumatiz was too big a handicap; all I could do was yell. You never'd have picked out Todd for a sprinter not to look at him, you wouldn't but if he didn't beat the record for his class just then I'll eat my sou'wester.
For much of the period of our flight either Ghak or I had half supported him on the march.

"Perry and I will make it if we are able.
