He wanted to protest, but his clear mind showed him that there was nothing against which, with reason, he could protest. He could not complain because these people were not apparently aware of the sacrifice he was making. He had come among them to perform a kindly act. He recognized that he must not stultify it by a show of irritation.
Having said this, let me stultify myself but for private ears alone as a bit of personal history, not an explanation to be appended to the score.
I didn't blame her a bit. He's one of that kind his bark's worse than his bite. And to think you knew all the time what was coming off. My, but you're the Mr. Deep-one!" I saw no reason to stultify myself by denying this. I mean to say, if she thought it, let her! "The last thing yesterday she gave me this dress." I had already noted the very becoming dull blue house gown she wore.
Chopin's artistic achievements, however, were not unanimously received with such enthusiastic approval. A writer in the less friendly La France musicale goes even so far as to stultify himself by ridiculing, a propos of the A flat Impromptu, the composer's style.
Once or twice this week I've heard most absurd remarks of yours repeated. Please remember that it isn't only yourself you stultify. Politics may be a joke for you; for me it is a serious pursuit. I mustn't have people associating my name with all kinds of nonsensical chatter. I have a career before me, Paula.
His enemies would claim that the party could not afford to stultify itself by the choice of a candidate who favored monopolies.

I shall have to stultify myself; to repudiate my own actions; to write myself down an ass." "Good for you," said Percival, with an ironical smile. "Possibly; but I don't see what you gain by it." "Love of dominion, my dear fellow. I want to drag you as a captive at my chariot-wheels, of course. We will have a military band at the Dunmuir Station, and it shall play 'See the conquering hero comes."
At breakfast, and while they were packing the few remaining articles, he showed his weariness from the night's effort so unmistakeably that Tess was on the point of revealing all that had happened; but the reflection that it would anger him, grieve him, stultify him, to know that he had instinctively manifested a fondness for her of which his common-sense did not approve, that his inclination had compromised his dignity when reason slept, again deterred her.
"You'd better hurry up and secure a place in the ark," said Professor Pludder sarcastically. "I don't know but I shall, if I can get one," returned Professor Moses. "You may not think this is such a laughing matter a few months hence." "I'm surprised," pursued the president, "that a man of your scientific standing should stultify himself by taking seriously such balderdash as this.
