She never liked to be seen or heard under a disadvantage, and she surely had received an unreconcilable insult just now.
Except for his swarthiness Hamed is unreconcilable to the ideals of an Arab, and he has a most heretical dislike to the desert. All his best qualities are under suppression on dry land. He is the Arab of the dhow. His eyes are muddy. The pupils begin to show opacity.
A thing is "less good" than the thing higher in the scale; but that "less good" thing, in turn, is "more good" than the thing next below it and so on, the "more or less" being regulated by the position on the scale. And so it is on the Mental Plane. "Love and. Hate" are generally regarded as being things diametrically opposed to each other; entirely different; unreconcilable.
But having beaten him once and forever he came back to me, panting all fluffed up and with blood thirst only just dying in his eye. He came down on to my table out of breath as he agitatedly rearranged his untidy feathers and indignant almost unreconcilable because I had been such an undiscriminating and feeble- minded imbecile as to be for one moment deceived.

This will be the result, that there will be one man, two men, or a handful of men, who, coming into conflict with no one, without governmental or revolutionary violence, will decide for ourselves the terrible question which stands before all the world, and which sets people at variance, and that we shall settle it in such wise that life will be better to them, that their conscience will be more at peace, and that they will have nothing to fear; the result will be, that other people will see that the happiness which they are seeking everywhere, lies there around them; that the apparently unreconcilable contradictions of conscience and of the constitution of this world will be reconciled in the easiest and most joyful manner; and that, instead of fearing the people who surround us, it will become necessary for us to draw near to them and to love them.
