"Since this absorption of energy might result in making the ship too cool, due to the radiation of the side away from the sun, we'll polish it, and thus reduce the unlighted side's radiation.
And I think that means not doing anything at all that would spoil the other side's chances." "Oh, that's all right," said Margery, "but I'm glad we won." "I'm glad," said Dolly. "And I'm sorry, too. That sounds silly, doesn't it, but it's what I mean. Maybe if Gladys had won, we could have patched things up. And now there'll be more trouble than ever."
You can't expect a man to be in an angelic temper when his side's been licked by thirty points. The Babe was one of those thoroughly excellent persons who always try, when possible, to make allowances for everybody. 'Well, dash it, said Charteris indignantly, 'if he had lost his hair he might have drawn the line at falling on Tony like that. It wasn't the tackling part of it that crocked him.
The story has roused a very bitter feeling, even among my own hands, who are not particularly virtuous, and now that we are on the eve of the elections some of the other side's pettifoggers are using it freely. Still, I should gladly have faced all that, but for my own shame, knowing it is true.

"Ah, and what sort of a thing is this small spaceship, now?" "A thing like a pair of fifty-ton lorries, with airlocks between, and connected at the middle; airtight, of course, and pressurized and insulated, like a spaceship. One side's living' quarters for a six-man crew sometimes the gang's out for as long as a week at a time and the other side's a workshop." That sounded interesting.
