Utter ruthlessness. Napoleon had that extra ten per cent. Bismarck had it. You're right when you say I haven't it." Olive moved irritably in her chair. "Sour grapes," she commented. "Call it that if you wish." She dug her pen viciously into the polished surface of the desk, leaving the holder quivering at the outrage. "Larssen has been merely playing with you," continued Matheson.
Even the ruthlessness of a united family recoiled before the extreme measure of inflicting on our guest the mutilated members of The Sea Cook; at the same time, we would by no means stop our readings; and accordingly the tale was begun again at the beginning, and solemnly re-delivered for the benefit of Dr. Japp.
There were battleships, heavy and squat; cruisers, more slender and graceful; low-lying destroyers, coal black or silver grey; and hospital ships, which, in their glistening white paint, were as much more lovely than the men-of-war as ruth is more lovely than ruthlessness.

The law, missing the right quarry, descends on the slower-moving, harmless bum.
He joined the issue with his rifle reversed, and the hoary game of natural selection was played out with all the ruthlessness of its primeval environment. Rifle and ax went up and down, hit or missed with monotonous regularity; lithe bodies flashed, with wild eyes and dripping fangs; and man and beast fought for supremacy to the bitterest conclusion.
