Their direction constitutes the idea's reference to that reality, their satisfactoriness constitutes its adaptation thereto, and the two things together constitute the 'truth' of the idea for its possessor. Without such intermediating portions of concretely real experience the pragmatist sees no materials out of which the adaptive relation called truth can be built up.
The chief executive said comfortably; "The idea's been proposed. It's good politics to urge it, but it would be foolish to carry it out. People vote against blueskins. Wipe them out, and where'd you be?" Calhoun ground his teeth, quietly. There were more speeches. Then a messenger, white-faced, arrived with a written note for the chief executive. He read it and passed it to Calhoun.
"That school idea's just between you and me for the present," Mrs. Owen remarked as she watched Sylvia button her mackintosh. "Look here, Sylvia, don't you need some money? I mean, of course, don't you want to borrow some?" "Oh, never! By the way, I didn't tell you that I expect to make some?
"I do hope Johnnie Green won't find this new nest of mine," she remarked. "If he does, I fear he'll take my beautiful egg away from me." "Lay another!" said old Whitey. "Lay another and he'll take that and leave this one." "I suppose I may as well try your scheme," Henrietta replied, "since nobody suggests anything better."

"You really aren't responsible in the least," Jessy declared. "Still, I can understand the idea's troubling you." "She's left without a cent and unable to work and I don't know what to do.

When the idea's come tae me I'll sit doon at the piano and strum it ower and ower again, till I maun mak' everyone else i' the hoose tired. 'Deed, and I've been asked, mair than once, tae gie the hoose a little peace. I dinna arrange my songs, I needn't say, having no knowledge of the principles.

Madame de Vionnet may very well be going off, mayn't she? and Mr. Newsome by the same stroke: unless indeed you've had an assurance from them to the contrary. So that if your idea's to stay for them" it was her duty to suggest it "you may be left in the lurch.
"But the idea's got to be got out of his head again!" said George vigorously more dictatorially and less persuasively than before. Marguerite offered no remark.
