Katherine interrupted with great scorn. "By adding verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative." "Quite so, Kate; exactly what I was going to say myself. But to come back to the project itself.
"Very well, dearest," he agreed, with pale and unconvincing affection, "we'll go together." His love for her returned and settled placidly on his heart. She was his she would go with him to share his dangers. He put his arms about her and kissed her fervently. After all she loved him; she had saved him, in fact. Discussing the matter, they walked slowly back toward the château.
He argued, with logic irrefutable as it was unconvincing, that this alone ought to stay her hand; yet he knew, by the power of their own yearning, one for the other, that in the great cause of love, whether for themselves or for Camilla Van Arsdale and Willis Enderby, she would resistlessly follow the impulse born and matured of her own passion.
Avoid that which is timid, familiar, violent, cold, indifferent, unreal, artificial, dull, sing-song, hesitating, feeble, unconvincing, apathetic, monotonous, pompous, formal, arbitrary, flippant, ostentatious, drawling, or languid. Your gesture should be graceful, appropriate, free, forceful, and natural. Avoid all gesture which is unmeaning, angular, abrupt, constrained, stilted, or amateurish.
These, he explained to Ford, were intended to give "verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative." And the sighing of the bullets gave young Bradshaw exactly what he wanted the assurance that he was not the victim of a practical joke.

She was discussing one of those modern advanced plays with a remarkable, with an extraordinary, confidence. "His love-making," she remarked, "struck me as unconvincing. He seemed too noisy." The full significance of her words did not instantly appear to him. Then it dawned. Good heavens! She was discussing love-making. Could she understand what she was talking about?
"Did you do that?" he whispered impellingly. "Did you spell my name into that man's manuscript?" "No, I didn't! I don't believe I did I never noticed well, even if I did, that doesn't mean anything." I hope the printers will set that anything in their very smallest type, just to show you how weak and futile and scarcely audible and absolutely unconvincing the word sounded.
Angele would have been more than human if she had not felt the spell of the ablest intriguer, of the most fascinating diplomatist of his day. Before he spoke of marriage the thrill the unconvincing thrill though it was of a perilous temptation was upon her; but the very thing most meant to move her only made her shudder; for in her heart of hearts she knew that he was ineradicably false.
Flint's belated interest in the morals of his feminine office force was unconvincing enough to be irritating. For a man who never missed an opportunity to force his attentions, he was showing an amazingly ethical viewpoint. On second thought, Claire remembered that Miss Munch was never the recipient of Mr.
The leading character, Wilhelmine, is, like most characters which are chosen and built up to exemplify a preconceived theory, quite unconvincing. In his foreword Wezel analyzes his heroine’s character and details at some length the motives underlying the choice of attributes and the building up of her personality.
