For the German sees you acting as a moral and law-abiding Christian at home, and as an unscrupulous and Machiavellian conqueror abroad; and if he refrains from the reproach of hypocrisy, with which the more stupid continentals invariably charge you, he will certainly call you a "British muddlehead."
"I haven't enjoyed telling lies," said Will, "I assure you." "That I'm sure you haven't, poor boy! but Mr. Sherwood? Hasn't he made any effort to help you. Surely he " "Poor old Godfrey!" broke in her brother, laughing. "It's a joke to remember that I used to think him a splendid man of business, far more practical than I. Why, there's no dreamier muddlehead living."
He's my friend, and this morning offered to share his money with me, as I shared mine with him. I won't have Dantes killed I won't!" "And who has said a word about killing him, muddlehead?" replied Danglars. "We were merely joking; drink to his health," he added, filling Caderousse's glass, "and do not interfere with us."
Surely you don't hesitate to tell me that! Whatever I have is yours, too you know it." The Bishop looked deeply disgusted. "Muddlehead!" was his unexpected answer, and Fielding, serene in the consciousness of generosity and good feeling, looked as if a hose had been turned on him. "What the devil!" he said. "Excuse me, Jim, but just tell me what you're after. I can't make you out."
" There, look at that," he added, with an oath, as the figure of Maurice Frere appeared side by side with that of the waiting-maid, and the two turned away up the deck together. "It's all right, you confounded muddlehead!" cried the Crow, losing patience with his perverse and stupid companion. "How can she give us the office with that cove at her elbow?"
"Did you think so, Natty?" said Samson, good-temperedly. "Yes." "That shows what I say 's right. You always was such a muddlehead that you couldn't tell good from bad, and you don't know any better now. Poor old Nat, I don't bear you any malice or hatred in my heart. I'm sorry for you." Nat ground his teeth gently, for his brother's easy-going way angered him. "Sorry for me?" he said.
So-and-So will inform him by a line in reply, whether there is such an entry to his credit in their books, and by whom the payment has been made. You wait for the bankers' answer, and bring it to me. It's just possible that the name you're afraid to whisper may appear in the letter. If it does, we've caught our man. Is that forgery, Mr. Muddlehead Moody?

"Only five," said the Irishman firmly "seein', hearin', tastin', smellin', and feelin'; wot's the sixth sense?" "One that you are chock full of it's non-sense," replied Muggins.
Jacques Haret commend me to the Jacques Harets of this world for knowing all their rights! seeing what a muddlehead Mirepoix was, cried stoutly: "I demand to see the governor of the prison, the Grand Prieur de Vendôme." Now, this was his right but Mirepoix proceeded to argue the point with him. The Grand Prieur was having a supper party.
Rowland noted it with exultation, but even without it he would have broken into an eager protest. "Are you serious, Roderick?" he demanded. "Serious? of course not! How can a man with a crack in his brain be serious? how can a muddlehead reason? But I 'm not jesting, either; I can no more make jokes than utter oracles!" "Are you willing to go home?" "Willing?
