To me they seemed to typify the very soul of Russia, unexpressive, inactive from despair, unheeded by the little set of Westernizers who make up all the parties of progress or reaction. Russia is so vast that the articulate few are lost in it as man and his planet are lost in interstellar space.
The moment your curiosity is really aroused about an historical circumstance, the glasses through which you have been viewing so varied and wide a landscape become suddenly very opaque. History is a gallery of pictures so individually unexpressive that you must know the artist to know their meaning.
"I understand thee, at least," said Flammock. "And I thee, I trust?" said Jorworth, bending his keen, wild blue eye on the stolid and unexpressive face of the Netherlander, like an eager student who seeks to discover some hidden and mysterious meaning in a passage of a classic author, the direct import of which seems trite and trivial.
At the nativity of this great hope, of this present Immanuel, the angels of our highest aspirations bend from their cloudy thrones, "Harping in loud and solemn choir, With unexpressive notes, to Heaven's newborn heir." And the burden of the song that interprets their symphony is this: "Justice and Truth again Shall down return to men.
Then suddenly the door clicked and closed. They turned their heads, and he started violently back. In the shadow of the room stood a great shadowy figure silent. They saw the face dimly in the half-light, with unexpressive dark patches under the penthouse brows. Every muscle in Raut's body suddenly became tense. When could the door have opened? What had he heard? Had he heard all?
Wentworth. "We have always desired her happiness." "Well, here it is!" Felix declared. "I will make her happy. She believes it, too. Now had n't you noticed that?"

The throne was already occupied by the patriot king, clothed in his robes of state; his inner dress was a doublet and vest of white velvet, slashed with cloth of silver; his stockings, fitting tight to the knee, were of the finest woven white silk, confined where they met the doublet with a broad band of silver; his shoes of white velvet, broidered with silver, in unison with his dress; a scarf of cloth of silver passed over his right shoulder, fastened there by a jewelled clasp, and, crossing his breast, secured his trusty sword to his left side; his head, of course, was bare, and his fair hair, parted carefully on his arched and noble brow, descended gracefully on either side; his countenance was perfectly calm, unexpressive of aught save of a deep sense of the solemn service in which he was engaged.
In common, I believe, with the majority of my countrymen, I have the utmost respect and admiration for the movement which you represent." Major Kosuth smiled slowly. His features were heavy and unexpressive. There was something of gloom, however, in the manner of his response. "You are very kind, Baron," he replied, "and I welcome very much this expression of your interest in my party.
Do not persist in cold and unexpressive silence. A thousand times have those lips made the chaste confession of my happiness. A thousand times upon that hand have I sealed my gratitude. Yet do I stand in need of fresh assurances. Mutual attachment subsists not but in communication and sympathy. I count the tedious moments.
Even the architects recognize the change in our habits." "I don't believe the architects have made any changes for Alice." "Oh, Alice!" Isabelle pished. "She is just a mother." "And the millions of others, men and women?" "They copy those on top as fast as they can; the simple life is either compulsory or an affectation.... I don't care for the unexpressive millions!"
