Now, having reached the portals of the house of Flaccus, they stood together under the pomegranate-fringed portico which fronted the peristyle and, confident in each other's tried discretion, made up by the freedom of their criticism for their long self-suppression of that melancholy feast.
Otherwise it would never be to them what it ought to be; what it might be; what it will be! So these friends were silent, and the little tragedy developed. Harold's patience began to give way under the constant strain of self-suppression. Stephen tried to hide her love and fear, under the mask of a gracious calm. This the other took for indifference.
My brother! have you taken that Mercy and that Truth into your soul, and are you trying to reach peace in the only way by which any human being can ever reach it through the path of righteousness, self-suppression, and consecration to Him?
I trust that ours may not become atrophied by self-suppression. The Italians are a quick high-spirited race, and it is very necessary that we should consider their feelings, and that we should show our sympathy with what they have done, instead of making querulous and unreasonable demands of them. In some ways they are in a difficult position.
Or had Mordecai, against his habitual resolve, communicated to her those peculiar cherished hopes about him, Deronda, and had her quickly sensitive nature been hurt by the discovery that her brother's will or tenacity of visionary conviction had acted coercively on their friendship been hurt by the fear that there was more of pitying self-suppression than of equal regard in Deronda's relation to him?

This self-suppression, and also the concealment of pain are two of the old noblesse oblige characteristics which are now little more than a tradition. Public opinion should be firmer on the matter. The man who must hop because his shin is hacked, or wring his hand because his knuckles are bruised should be made to feel that he is an object not of pity, but of contempt.
It was so beautiful and so pitiful!" "It was manly, gentlemanly; and that was enough. Then all at once he's taken aback! All control of himself gone, all self-suppression, all conscience" "The conscience has returned," said the girl. "Oh, not to guide him! Only to goad him! Fifty consciences can't honorably undo the mischief now!"
"How can you ask?" she said, with continued self-suppression. "I almost know that you do not. But then, why do you repulse me?" "I don't repulse you. I like you to tell me you love me; and you may always tell me so as you go about with me and never offend me." "But you will not accept me as a husband?" "Ah that's different it is for your good, indeed, my dearest!
Observe the form which the purpose of the miracle assumes there. It is the confirmation of the divine Presence, not with the leader, but with the people and their consequent victory. Joshua grasped the inmost meaning of God's Word to himself, and showed noble self-suppression, when he thus turned the direction of the miracle.
