Most of the ground crew were ex-spacemen like McKenny, no longer able to blast off because of acceleration reaction. And they smiled knowingly, remembering their reactions to their first spaceship. Inside the massive cruiser, the boys roamed over every deck, examining the ship excitedly. "Say look at this!" cried Tom.
"Comte," said Bussy, "beg your wife not to plunge dagger in my heart." "Take care, Bussy; you will make me think it is with her you are in love." "If it were so, you will confess, at least, that I am a lover not much to be feared." "True," said St. Luc, remembering how Bussy had brought him his wife. "But confess, your heart is occupied." "I avow it." "By a love, or by a caprice?" asked Jeanne.
Armstrong looked distressed, but, remembering the wayward humor of the other, he gently answered: "I am sorry the form of expression displeases you; but I assure you I am glad to see you."

"Oh, it was only on paper." "Perhaps he still keeps it up on wall-paper?" suggested Mrs. Pasmer.

Rule's, forth to the Northern Sea. Despite my broken head which put it comfortably into my mind that maybe Dickon's was no worse I could have laughed to think how clean I had vanished away from St. Andrews, as if the fairies had taken me. Now having time to reason of it quietly, I picked up hope for Dickon's life, remembering his head to be of the thickest.

With luck, he could be at Suzanne's by one or one-thirty in the morning. "I know you need to be good on Saturdays," he had said to her. "But it will be Sunday. I can actually stay all night, for once." Suzanne thought for a second. "If I'm in bed, the door will be open," she said. Oliver felt a jolt of electricity, remembering.
