I might have gone on easily for fifteen years more, only for drinking champagne. I wish I had my life to live over again: you wouldnt catch me playing burlesque. If I had got the chance, I know I could have played tragedy or real Italian opera. I had to work hard at first; and they wont fill my place, very readily: thats one comfort. My cleverness was my ruin. Ned was not half so quick.
"But if she is irreclaimable, why not leave her?" "So I would, only for the child. I have left her at least, I've taken lodgings in town; but I am always running out to Laurel Grove. I darent trust Lucy to her; and she knows it; for she wouldnt let me take the poor little creature away, although she doesnt care two straws for it. She knows that it gives her a grip over me.
Not in my appearance, I reasoned, for I was a personable young man, a little over thirty at the time, with no obvious defects a few visits to the dentist wouldnt have removed. Of course I do have an unfortunate skin condition, but such a thing's an act of God, as the lawyers say, and people must take me as I am. No, it wasnt my appearance ... or was it? That monstrously outsized pump!
Get it all down in black and white and signed by Miss Francis right away. For her own good. An idealistic scientist, a frail woman, protect her from the vultures who'd try to rob her as soon as they saw what the Metamorphizer would do. Such a woman wouldnt have any business sense. I'd see she got a comfortable living out of it and free her from responsibility.
Wouldnt of believed it if I hadnt noticed just yesterday how much worse an the city dump it looked." "Bet at stuff's ten inches high." "Brother, you can say that again. Foot'd be closer." "Anyhow it's uh fattestlookin grass I seen sence I lef Texas." "An the greenest. Guess I never did see such a green before."
That was just after the surrender. I did see a terrible sight once. A slave with chains on him as long as from here to the street. He was in an ole' buggy, settin' between two white men and they was passin' througn Knoxville. My mother and father wouldnt lissen' to me tell 'em about it when I got home. Joseph Leonidas Star, no longer works at the shoemakers trade.
THE WIFE. These people treat us as if we were dirt beneath their feet. I wonder at you putting up with it, Amby. It would serve them right if we went home at once: wouldnt it, Eth? THE DAUGHTER. Yes, mamma. But perhaps they wouldnt mind. THE ENVOY. No use talking like that, Molly. Ive got to see this oracle.
Douglas, she found, had paid all expenses before leaving. She did not linger in the building; for the hotel staff stared at her curiously. She finished her business by telegraphing to Elinor: "Separated. Write to new address. Have I forfeited my money?" This cost her nearly five dollars. "Only that you must find out about your money, I wouldnt have let you spend all that," said Mrs. Crawford.
"You certainly started something here, Acne and/or Psoriasis." Humor like his was beneath offense. "My name's Albert Weener." "Mine's Mustard." He produced a plastic cup and rapidly extracted from it a series of others in diminishing sizes. "I wouldnt have thought it to look at you. The dirty deed, I mean not the exzemical hotdog. O K, Mister Weener who's this scientific magnate?
If you refuse, I shall go and sit beside Mr Burge, and ask him to hold my hand. LUBIN. He wouldnt know how to do it, my dear. Burge has a reputation as a profligate His name is coupled with all the most celebrated beauties; but for him there is only one woman; and that is not you, my dear, but his very charming wife. BURGE. You are destroying my character in the act of pretending to save it.
