Theories, after all, are worth little unless they have been worked out in experience; and when one has patiently, even happily, given up much of the joy of living to serve, has learned to keep self under and love even the unlovable, has put to the test the promises of the Bible and found them hold true in time of need, and has found the Sabbath day an oasis in the desert of an otherwise dreary life, even an old theologian wouldn't have much more to go on in beginning a discussion on Sabbath-keeping.
Keats was not an easily swayable man; in differing with those he loved, his firmness kept equal pace with the sweetness of his persuasion; but with the rough and the unlovable he kept no terms, within the conventional precincts, I mean, of social order. From Well Walk he moved to another quarter of the Heath, Wentworth Place the name, if I recollect. Here he became a sharing inmate with Mr.
I bin rubberin. Aw, quit yer foolin', Sam, where is he? 'I couldn't tell you just where he is at the present moment, I said precisely. 'Ahr chee! Let me swot him one! begged the man with the pistol; a most unlovable person. I could never have made a friend of him. 'Cheese it, you! said Mr MacGinnis. The other cheesed it once more, regretfully.
This made her silent and constrained for a time, and when she saw that her manner annoyed her lover she thrust aside the selfish impulse which was rendering her unlovable, and sometimes showed her delight in the victory of love over every other feeling so impetuously, that her nature seemed to have lost the unvarying cheerfulness which had formerly delighted him, and he left her in a less satisfied mood.
An old, tumble-down mill, with rude and rotten timbers, and a wheel outside, is decidedly picturesque, because its imperfections make it informal. The most unattractive of all houses is a model house. A house that no man can find fault with, is a house that no man can love. It is precisely thus with human character and with men. A proper, perfect, "model" man, is an unlovable man.
Elizabeth Clayton was given a nervous system of superb quality, which used for the good of those she touched would have hallowed her life; misused, she drifts into unlovable old age, a selfish neurotic.
His family, seeing him prefer to dissect the bones of some animal rather than to talk with his parents, probably considered him a very unlovable child when they sent him, in his tenth year, to school in the city of Ilm.
He had now attained the deserved fame of being the second Knight in France, honourable and loyal as regarded his King, but harsh, rigid, cruel, of an unlovable temper, which made him in after years a mark for plots and conspiracies; and the vindictive temper of the Celtic race leading him to avenge the death of his brother upon every Englishman who fell into his hands.
The man is no enemy we have not come to that class of neighbours yet but he is dull, uninteresting in a negative way, he thinks, unlovable. What is he to do with him? With all his effort, he finds the goal as far off as ever. Naturally, in his failure, the question arises, "Is it my duty to love him who is unlovable?" Certainly not, if he is unlovable. But that is a begging of the question.
Why she should have felt thus toward her, was certainly unaccountable, as there was no trait more unlovable than innocency, about her character; but this very gentleness of nature, in contrast with the iciness, seldom found in woman's heart, would, as an unavoidable result, serve to widen the two extremes.
