Even when he said, whispering with truth, 'I love you, I love you, it was not the real truth. It was something beyond love, such a gladness of having surpassed oneself, of having transcended the old existence. How could he say "I" when he was something new and unknown, not himself at all? This I, this old formula of the age, was a dead letter.
Here indeed was something to fight for perhaps to die for, as he had said: and as I sat there in my office gazing out of the window I found myself repeating certain phrases he had used the phrase about leadership, for instance. It was a tremendous conception of Democracy, that of acquiescence to developed leadership made responsible; a conception I was compelled to confess transcended Mr.

The sound and the concussion transcended what had been conceivable. Both the sound and the concussion seemed to last for a long time.
As a subjectively honest woman alone, beginning her charity at home, there was no doubt that she ought. Save Thyself was sound Old Testament doctrine, and not altogether discountenanced in the New.

All dethroned and abdicating dictators have not the luck of Sylla. Silently and unreservedly to accept such a sacrifice, while the offerer was resolved not to count the cost, transcended even the cynicism of Royston Keene. He grasped her arm as though to arrest her attention, and almost involuntarily broke from his lips words of solemn warning. "Let me go on my way alone, while there is time.
But neither was she unconscious that she thereby enhanced the too high pitch of her cheek-bones and the already too generous width between them.

Yet it is to be remembered that the division between the agreeable and disagreeable of mankind is one which may be transcended. It is a scratch on the earth, not a ten-foot wall.
