I was just wondering what it is about you that makes men want you," he returned. "You should know," she answered bluntly. "I never knew. I was like Mills: a victim of my emotions. But one outgrows any feeling if it is clubbed hard enough. I daresay all these things are natural enough, even if they bring misery in their wake." "I daresay," she said.
I hope for her own sake she will outgrow her love of truth, or it will make deadly enemies for her." "And good friends," said Rachel. "Possibly," said Lord Newhaven, looking narrowly at her, and almost obliged to believe that she had spoken without self-consciousness. "But if she outgrows all her principles, I hope, at any rate, she won't outgrow her sharp tongue.
Economics outgrows the outworn metaphysical preconceptions of nineteenth century theory. To-day we witness the creation of a new "welfare" or social economics, based on a fuller and more complete knowledge of the human race, upon a recognition of sex as well as of hunger; in brief, of physiological instincts and psychological demands.
As one walks along the streets of Rotterdam in the evening, one sees that it is a city overflowing with life and in the process of expansion a city, so to speak, in the flush of youth, in the time of growth, which, from year to year, outgrows its streets and houses, as a boy outgrows his clothes. Its one hundred and fourteen thousand inhabitants will be two hundred thousand at no distant time.
It means that woman at her best never outgrows adolescence as man does, but lingers in, magnifies and glorifies this culminating stage of life with its all-sided interests, its convertibility of emotions, its enthusiasm, and zest for all that is good, beautiful, true, and heroic.
The tissue of misrepresentations attempted to be woven round us, are like cobwebs woven round the limbs of an infant giant. Our country continually outgrows them. One falsehood after another falls off of itself. We have but to live on, and every day we live a whole volume of refutation.
Professor Butcher has declared that genius "wins its most signal triumphs from the very limitations within which it works." And this is what Gautier meant when he declared that the greater the difficulty the more beautiful the work; or, as Mr. Austin Dobson has paraphrased it: Yes; when the ways oppose When the hard means rebel, Fairer the work outgrows, More potent far the spell.
"File out in absolute silence," said I, not remembering at the moment that this was the great order of evacuation. I watched my company file past me twenty-eight men. Then I followed, wishing it were lighter, for man never quite outgrows his dislike of utter darkness and this was a nervous night.
A cramped stature does not feel a cramped roof; but raise the stature, and the slave outgrows his institution, and there's revolt. Eh? There's such a thing as equally bad extremes. Our old friend Mr. Erne's of late, and St. George's now, beg your pardon, St. George, are both of them just as bad the other way." "You are severe," said St. George, as he set the chessmen.
We struck the home-trail now, and in a few hours were in that astonishing Chicago a city where they are always rubbing the lamp, and fetching up the genii, and contriving and achieving new impossibilities. It is hopeless for the occasional visitor to try to keep up with Chicago she outgrows his prophecies faster than he can make them.
