Any one who has had to think as hard as I how to keep the lean white wolf of the Green Mountains or vice versa from my shifting doorstep, certainly need not tremble before the necessity of thought. But I have learned this when I want to get something I don't know how to get, I invariably regard it the height of sapience to go and ask some one who does know how.

"Her charming appearance is half the battle" Nick explained a little coldly what he meant. But he felt his coldness an inadequate protection to him when he heard his companion observe with something of the same sapience: "A woman's always effective when she likes a person so much."

Ruth Ortheris hooted at that. "That's like talking about being just slightly dead or just slightly pregnant," she said. "You either are or you aren't." Gerd van Riebeek was talking at the same time. "This sapience question is just as important in my field as yours, Ruth.

His whimsical individuality never varies; yet every character of the many that he has portrayed stands clearly forth among its companions, a distinct, unique embodiment. The graceful urbanity, the elaborate yet natural manner, the brisk vitality, the humorous sapience of Sir Patrick Lundy how completely and admirably he expressed them!

Lunt looked at the small battered body and the six mourners around it. "But, Jack, they aren't legally sapient beings." "There is no such thing.

Now I think you've consistently understated it. Short of actual sapience, I've never seen anything like them." "Why short of it?" van Riebeek asked. "Ruth, you've been pretty quiet this evening. What do you think?" Ruth Ortheris looked uncomfortable. "Gerd, it's too early to form opinions like that.

Apparently they were impressed with the sapience of his remark. They searched the trunks until they had gathered the five that Honey demanded.

There was the glee in his voice of a little boy who is playing a practical joke.

He paused for a moment. "This is our definition of sapience. When we encounter any being whose mentation includes these characteristics, we may know him for a sapient brother. It is the considered opinion of all of us that the beings called Fuzzies are such beings." Jack hugged the small sapient one on his lap, and Little Fuzzy looked up and murmured, "He-inta?" "You're in, kid," he whispered.

"They scheduled the Kellogg trial first," Gus Brannhard was saying, "and there wasn't any way I could stop that. You see what the idea is? They'll try him first, with Leslie Coombes running both the prosecution and the defense, and if they can get him acquitted, it'll prejudice the sapience evidence we introduce in your trial."
