"How are you going to get out to a point halfway between these two stars when you don't have enough power to lift this ship a few miles?" "If Mahomet can not go to the mountain," misquoted Arcot, "then the mountain must come to Mahomet." "What are you going to do?" Wade asked in exasperation. "Beat Joshua? He made the sun stand still, but this is a job of throwing them around!"
The sensualist will find that normal means a lessening of desire rather than an increase; the weakened man or woman will find a toning up and a relief from the weakness which has heretofore depressed him or her. We do not wish to be misunderstood or misquoted on this subject.
At the outset of the rebellion in February 1798 Lord Clare had made a memorable speech in the House of Lords, which has been so often misquoted that it is well here to cite the passage in full:
D'you mean to say you're the only one to get here?" Billy grinned silently. Sounds of mirth floated over the grass, and Norah, Harry and Wally raced up. "Where are your mokes?" queried Jim. "The good knights are dust, Their mokes are rust," misquoted Wally cheerfully. "We don't know, bless you. Cleared out, harness and all. We'll have a wallaby and kangaroo hunt after this. Who's won?"
Once or twice Lewisham misquoted the testimonial to no purpose. And May was halfway through, and South Kensington was silent. The future was grey. And in the depths of his doubt and disappointment came her letter. It was typewritten on thin paper.
"I think you each need a handkerchief," said the doctor mischievously; and he went to a bureau which stood in a corner of the room, and took out two handkerchiefs of a bright Oriental pattern. He presented one to each of the girls. "Gaudy, but not neat," he misquoted. "Still, you must own that they are better than nothing," he said significantly.
"No, this is not a metropolitan hangover. It was acquired at breakfast, Letitia," I answered her as I sat up and stretched out my bare arms to give her a good shake and a hug. "'You may break, you may shatter the glass if you will, but the scent of the julep will hang 'round you still," I misquoted as I drew my knees up into my embrace and took the last remaining marron. "Why, Mammy said Mr.
Emberg the next day. "If you misquoted Sullivan it means a bad thing for our paper." "I quoted him correctly." At that moment the telephone on Mr. Emberg's desk rang and he answered it. "Dexter?" he repeated. "Yes, we have a reporter of that name here." Larry was all attention at once. "Who wants him? Oh, Mr. Sullivan? Is this Mr. Sullivan? Well, this is the city editor of the Leader.
If you could see through the hay you would behold the human chain in action," and she gave Nita such a jerk that the latter declared the bumps were lovely, and begged to be allowed to do her own experimenting with them. "He laughs best who laughs least," misquoted Dorothy, as the wagon continued to jog along. "I don't exactly like the er contour of the hill we are approaching."
I have it before me in your printed speech. I heard it delivered, and you are correctly reported." In a letter to Mr. B. F. Hallet of Boston, in 1856, Mr. Toombs denied saying that he would "call the roll of his slaves at the base of Bunker Hill Monument." He charged Senator Hale with misrepresenting him to this extent. No man was oftener misquoted by word of mouth or in public print.
