I have never set much store by books, Andre; and I have never known anything but trouble to come out of learning. It unsettles a man. It complicates his views of life, destroys the simplicity which makes for peace of mind and happiness. Let this miserable affair be a warning to you, Andre.
Morton, it's a Brussels!" "It was not my fault, my dear. I could not talk about family matters before the whole shop. Do you know, I'd quite forgot those poor boys. This unsettles me. Poor Catherine! she was so fond of them. A pretty boy that Sidney, too. What can have become of them? My heart rebukes me. I wish I had asked the man more." "More! why he was just going to beg."
Bultitude, who dashed into the breach with an almost pathetic effort to maintain his accustomed stiffness. "I may be old-fashioned," he said, "very likely I am; but I ah decidedly disapprove of taking children to dramatic exhibitions of any kind. It unsettles them, sir unsettles them!" Dr.
Intercourse with particular people always causes little scruples in him, intentional amenities, coquetry, reticences, reserves, spiteful hits, evasions. Therefore it should not be thought that we get to know him to the core from his letters.

Sentiment is the heart and soul of war; if it were not, there would be no war, for war never gained as much as it loses; never settled as much as it unsettles; never left victor or vanquished better when the last gun was fired!

"Your sentimentality spoils your happiness. You let two weeks poison the other fifty. It's immoral." Colum was about to retort, when he was anticipated by a new speaker.
Scarcely observing a pause the Major had read the letter, and no word of surprise had been spoken by his listeners; and now in silence they looked at one another, Gid with his mouth open, Sanders with an expression of pain. "Well," said the Major, "that settles it." "By jove," the Englishman burst out, "I should rather say unsettles it. I can't conceive of a settlement on that basis, you know.
How can the citizen prepare confidently for the future? How can he plan long ahead as we do? I have always read that this is the reason things are so steady and stable in Germany and so uncertain and wabbling in America. This uncertainty hanging over a republic unsettles its population. You have panics, lynchings, graft. We are free of such scourges.
It is my mournful ad vantage over you that disquiets your happy calm. It is my experience that unsettles the fallacies which you name 'convictions. Let this pass. I asked your opinion of me, because I wished to place at your service all that knowledge of life which I possess. In proportion as you esteem me you will accept or reject my counsels."
