It was the 'Right Honourable' which baited the hook which gorged all these greedy, simple Snobs. Would they have been taken in by a commoner? What old lady is there, my dear sir, who would take in you and me, were we ever so ill to do, and comfort us, and clothe us, and give us her money, and her silver forks? Alas and alas! what mortal man that speaks the truth can hope for such a landlady?
"If the snobs don't want to play with any of us on the team, then we don't want to play if they come in." "Gently, gently!" urged Dick. "Think of the honor of your school before you tie your hands up with any of your own mean, small pride. Our whole idea must be that Gridley High School is to go on winning, as it has always done before. For myself, I had hoped to be on the eleven this year.
It is I who have brought him into this dilemma!... I owe it to him not to abandon him, but to follow him to the end.... Here I shall be assisting at a duel, at my age!... Did you see how those young snobs lowered their voices when I mentioned my encounter with poor Caderousse?... Fifty-two years and a month, and not to know yet how to conduct one's self! Let us go to the Rue Leopardi.
Pinky Dinkys would like to keep outfitters' shops with whimsy 'scriptions on the boxes and make your bill out funny, and not be snobs to customers, no! not even if they had titles." "Every Pinky Dinky's people are rather good people, and better than most Pinky Dinky's people. But he does not put on side." "Pinky Dinkys become playful at the sight of women."
Hardly did he find himself once more in the gathering of politicians and snobs than he was filled with an aversion for them more violent than ever: for during his months of solitude he had lost the trick of such people. It was impossible to hear the music: it was a profanation; Christophe made up his mind to go as soon as the first piece was over.
Go crying to her? 'O Edgar! remonstrated Wilmet. 'Well, Mettie, if even our spiritual pastors will be snobs, one must have the relief of expressing one's opinion now and then. 'I should say it was better to keep any such fact out of one's mind as much as might be, said Mr. Audley, feeling himself unable to deny what had been so broadly expressed.
Timms, with not a penny in the bank, pinched himself to give a little dinner in imitation of a great lord who gave a great dinner, and had gold beyond his count; snobs, who wore paste jewels and cotton-backed velvet, who cursed a fellow and strutted about in imitation of noble lords, who wore real diamonds and silken velvets! mimicking the follies of the great, but never their noble deeds and heroisms.
I have been to to call on HER; and who do you suppose had been dining with her?" I named successively several noted actress-hunters and snobs, whose names disgusted Horatio. "Who then?" I asked. "Pendlam! Pendlam! Pendlam!" ejaculated Horatio. "He wanted to consult HER upon the subject of creating a Divine Drama, or some such nonsense." "Possibly a new Divine Comedy," I suggested.
She was my only friend in this damn family, and I coveted her money so little that I wish she could have lived on for twenty years." "I wondered how you liked them as time went on." He brought his teeth together and thrust out his jaw. "I hate the whole pack of superior patronizing condescending snobs, and it is all I can do to keep it from Alexina, who thinks her tribe perfection.
Look at the Marquis of Carabas and his two carriages. My Lady Marchioness comes on board, looks round with that happy air of mingled terror and impertinence which distinguishes her ladyship, and rushes to her carriage, for it is impossible that she should mingle with the other Snobs on deck. There she sits, and will be ill in private.
