Unflinchingly the preacher pointed out that Dives, apparently, lay in hell for no other reason than that he had been a rich man; no sin was imputed to him; not even unbelief; he had not only transgressed no law, but was doubtless a respectable, God-fearing man of irreproachable morals sent to hell for his wealth. And Lazarus appeared to have won heaven merely by reason of his poverty.
"I was thinking of two things just then a game at cards and the science of warfare. In both it's a good thing sometimes to let your adversary see what a strong hand you've got. Now, then, a question, if you please are you and I adversaries?" "Yes!" answered Nesta unflinchingly. "You're acting like an enemy you are an enemy!"
They never flagged through pictures and sculpture galleries, immense crowded churches, ruins and museums, Judas trees and prickly pears, wine carts and palaces, they admired their way unflinchingly.

"Taking a jolly long time over it, too and making love to you in the intervals, I suppose." "Sandy!" "Well, isn't he?" Sandy's green eyes met hers unflinchingly. "Anyway, I'm not in love with him." "I should hope not," he observed drily, "seeing that you're going to be Mrs. Trenby." She gave an odd little laugh. "That wouldn't make an insuperable barrier, would it?

Anyhow I understand you're the last man in the world who should take me for a fool." "My God!" said Paul in a choky voice. "What can I do to thank you?" "Win the election."
