He got up, put his pipe into a case, and the case into his pocket, and said: "Hermione, if the analyst may have a word " "Yes now." "Don't let Monsieur Delarey, whatever his character, see now, or in the future, the dirty little beggar staring at the angel. I use your own preposterously inflated phrase. Men can't stand certain things and remain true to the good in their characters.
Newman's metaphysics, which are far more accurate than his own, or to ridicule his logic. The tone of contempt which he habitually assumes preposterously reverses the relative intellectual status, so far as sound systematic thought is concerned, of the two men."
"There was also the matter of the horseman," went on Count Victor blandly, pointing his moustache. "Horseman?" queried the Baron. "A horseman sans doute. I noticed most of your people here ride with a preposterously short stirrup; this one rode like a gentleman cavalier. He stopped opposite the castle this forenoon and waved his compliments to the responsive maid."
Then at last, simply as if by accident and out of mere boredom on a day that was rather flat, she preposterously produced her own. "Well, wait a bit. Where I am I still see things." And she talked to him even worse, if possible, than she had talked to Jordan.
No, not quite, for I loved him as I should not have thought it in me to love anyone, and the very joy and gladness of the sensation made me see with his eyes, or else be preposterously blind.
About the costumes, you know." "Nonsense. How could that have reached him?" "Those things do get around. Do you know what he's going to do? He's going to cut your comb. My aunt she cried like anything." To Truesdale the girl's tone seemed preposterously confidential. "You were in the wrong," she seemed to imply; "but I am on your side for all that."
But if this mass of mad contradictions really existed, quakerish and bloodthirsty, too gorgeous and too thread-bare, austere, yet pandering preposterously to the lust of the eye, the enemy of women and their foolish refuge, a solemn pessimist and a silly optimist, if this evil existed, then there was in this evil something quite supreme and unique.
Don't you know that people who always feel jolly, no matter where they are or what happens to them who have the organ of hope preposterously developed who are endowed with an uncongealable, sanguine temperament who never feel concerned about the price of corn and who cannot, by any possibility, discover any but the bright side of a picture are very apt to go to extremes and exaggerate with a 40-horse microscopic power?
Her conversations with strange men had been confined to such things as, "Will you please tell me the nearest way to ?" but preposterously enough she could not for the life of her have told why frowning upon this huge American fat was the literal word who stood there with puckered-up face swinging the flaming hose would seem in the same shameful class with snubbing the little boy who confidently asked her what kind of ribbon to buy for his mother.
Men imitate when they stay at home more preposterously than when they see what is really beautiful and grand in other places; and a fine work of art repels imitation as the virgin beauty of a girl repels licentiousness. And we are elevated by art and mingling with men to know what is noble and best in attainment.
