"And when the garden's full of flowers!" she breathed in rapture. She was thinking, "Strange, nice boy! He's so romantic. All he wants is bringing out." They wandered to and fro. They went upstairs. They saw the bathroom. They stood on the landing, and the unseen spaces of the house were busy with their echoes. They then entered the room that was to be Edwin's. "Mine!" he said self-consciously.
Perry surprised himself by the ease with which he made this monstrous threat, but it seemed to have a soporific influence on his companion, for he gave out an "aw gwan" and subsided into abashed silence. The ringmaster mounted to the top of the piano and waved his hand for silence. "Prizes!" he cried. "Gather round!" "Yea! Prizes!" Self-consciously the circle swayed forward.
Stuart is living in an age of shifting boundaries in ideas and life. "I should hate to see him lower his youthful standards, but I should like to see him less in the clouds. I should like to see him leaven the lump with a sense of humor. To be self-consciously dedicated to noble things and yet unable to smile at one's ego is to be censorious, and to be censorious is to be offensive."
Mary looked up from her dolls, and then, nervously and self-consciously, went back to her play. Sarah stared straight before her. Hortense amiably endeavoured to draw the nurse into conversation. "You 'ave 'ere ze fine gardens," she said. "It calls to mind my own Paris. Ah, the gardens in Paris!"
Julio was wearing two pistols and a knife a foot long. There was a big crowd in the editorial office ships' officers, merchants, professional people. I noticed Sigurd Ngozori, the banker, and Professor Hartzenbosch he was wearing a pistol, too, rather self-consciously and the Zen Buddhist priest, who evidently had something under his kimono.
Dick Garstin had told her she had travelled. No doubt that was true. One may travel far perhaps in mind and in feeling without being self-consciously aware of it. But when one was aware, when one knew, it must surely be possible to stop. He had made to her a tremendous suggestion. She could refuse to entertain it. And when she refused, if she did refuse, what would happen?
The boy smiled, strangely the first smile of man's sophistication which Caleb had seen upon his face. "I've always hed to wait a long time fer everything I've wanted," he answered, "but I always git it, just the same, if I only want it hard enough." Caleb cleared his throat, self-consciously. "Still," he argued again, "it would waste some very valuable years.
They were walking self-consciously and almost guiltily near the forward end of the deck-house when they saw Veath approaching far behind. Their speed accelerated, and for half an hour they walked like pedestrians in a racing match, always keeping some distance ahead of poor Veath, who finally, like the sly fox, sat down and waited for them to hurry around and come upon him unexpectedly.
It affects my whole life," she added in a deeper voice. "There's something up there I have to find out!" Something in this made Garth's hopes lift up a little; for she did not speak as one whose heart was in thrall. Mademoiselle Trudeau concluded her piece with an ear-tearing discord; and turned, self-consciously inviting applause. "How well you play, dear!" said Natalie, the wheedler.
Ingram, "it is advisable for me to tell you a most marvellous and painful story. I have only just heard it. It has overwhelmed me, but I must do my duty." He paused. "Certainly," said George self-consciously, not knowing what to say.
