But Bouchard had wasted two words. "Your name and regiment?" he asked. "Hugo Mallin, of the 128th," replied Hugo. "Uh-h!" Bouchard's pigeonhole memory had retained the name. "Charge mutiny under fire; anarchism!" he went on, chopping out the words as if they were chips from a piece of granite. "Well, you have not escaped trial by hiding."
Realism is imperative to my nature, and the bourgeois spirit hates realism. The bourgeoisie is cowardly. It is afraid of life. And all your effort was to make me afraid of life. You would have formalized me. You would have compressed me into a two-by- four pigeonhole of life, where all life's values are unreal, and false, and vulgar." He felt her stir protestingly.
He handed the card through the brass grill. Are there any letters for me? he asked. While the postmistress searched a pigeonhole he gazed at the recruiting poster with soldiers of all arms on parade: and held the tip of his baton against his nostrils, smelling freshprinted rag paper. No answer probably. Went too far last time.
Froude's "Cat's Pilgrimage," "There may be truth in what you say, but your view is limited." Goodness, indeed, is not a matter easily opened to discussion.

If they could not suppress such inventions in any other way, it was their custom to buy them up and pigeonhole them. After the Revolution there were found enough of these patents which had been bought up and pigeonholed in self-protection by the capitalists to have kept the world in novelties for ten years if nothing more had been discovered.
Why should I treat you differently from any other member of the staff?" John had a feeling that the interview was being taken at too rapid a pace. He felt confused. "I don't want you to treat me differently," he said. Mr. Westley did not reply. John saw that he had taken a check-book from its pigeonhole. "I think we understand each other," said Mr. Westley. "There is no need for any discussion.
Tanqueray"! No, the thing is as impossible in England as the combination of roles in Jokai himself. The idea of letting a man be at once man of letters and man of action! Why, we scarcely allow that a man of letters may occupy more than one pigeonhole! If he is a poet, we will not admit he can write prose forgetting that is just what most poets do.
If it's Farnham's cheque you are worrying about, here it is," he added, drawing an oblong slip of paper from the pigeonhole of his desk, tearing it in two, and throwing it into the waste-paper basket. "A year ago, you told me that the one thing in the world you needed was money. Well, aren't you getting it?
What this considerate Red Tab meant was that I should return "in time." Yet he had not mentioned that there was to be any offensive and I had not. We had kept the faith of military secrecy. Besides, I really did not know, unless I opened a pigeonhole in my brain. It was also my business not to know the only business I had with the "big push" except to look on.
