It is not the poaching that annoys me so much as the contempt for my absolute and inviolable rights. There is, monsieur, as you cannot fail to have observed, an evil spirit of insubordination in the air, and there is one only way in which to meet it.
Some people take their chances in one way like you and Rosalie; some take them in another as I do.... Once I was afraid to take any; now I'm not. Who was it said that self-control is only immorality afraid?" "Will you tell me what is worrying you?" he persisted. "No, but I'll tell you what annoys me if you like." "What?" "Fear of notoriety." "Notoriety?" "Certainly not for myself for my house."
But if fire at will is not effective, what is its use? As we have already said its use is to occupy the men in the ranks. In ordinary fire the act of breathing alone, by the movement it communicates to the body greatly annoys men in firing. How then can it be claimed that on the field of battle, in rank, men can fire even moderately well when they fire only to soothe themselves and forget danger?
"There's an upward thrust that we don't understand, and there's a twist that is very bad for our brackets and diamond- plates, and there's a sort of west-northwesterly pull, that follows the twist, which seriously annoys us. We mention this because we happened to cost a good deal of money, and we feel sure that the owner would not approve of our being treated in this frivolous way."
She had a way of being right about worldly matters the triumph of experience over hope, as she had once observed cynically. But this time he felt sure she was wrong. The feminine interest in a possible, probable, or even improbable love-affair always surprises the average man surprises, and sometimes annoys him very much.
"What's the use of all this hypocrisy, gentlemen?" sneered McBane. "Every last one of us has an axe to grind! The major may as well put an edge on his. We'll never get a better chance to have things our way. If this nigger doctor annoys the major, we'll run him out with the rest.
Halloran almost entirely; but she is here just as often, and sadly annoys me. I dislike her more and more every day." "If I saw as much in any one to object to as you see in Mrs. Halloran, I would soon make visiting a thing by no means agreeable. You can easily get rid of her intrusive familiarity if you think proper."
"You apologise?" "Certainly." The little man held out a hand. "I might have known, Jemmy, you were too good a fellow " he began. "Oh, stow away your pretty speeches and take back your hand. I can't prevent your playing the fool with Meg's child; but if I had a decent excuse, you may make up your mind I'd use it. As it is, the sight of you annoys me. Good morning!"
'We don't think much of that here, nor of your modern pretences in general. The only thing that touches you and me is what hurts or helps ourselves. To be sure, it all comes to the same thing, for I suppose it annoys you to see that wretch writhing; it hurts your more delicate, highly-cultivated consciousness.
It's going to be a big thing. Simple, you know, and yet clever like all dad's papers. Far more of it than Northcliffe, David says he has. Because, you know, Northcliffe sometimes annoys people look at the line he took about us helping the Russians to fight each other. And making out in leaders, David says, that the Government is always wrong just because he doesn't like it.
