LINES FROM THE TEXT:

A contemptuous tolerance for people who were not getting on

Air of knowing everything, and really they knew nothing--nothing

As if man's honour suffered when he's injured

Autocratic manner of settling other people's business

Avoid falling between two stools

Bad business to be unable to take pride in anything one does

Begging the question

Believe without the risk of too much thinking

Casual charity

Christian and good Samaritan are not quite the same

Complacency

Contrived to throw no light on anything whatever

Cultured intolerance

Defying Life to make him look at her

Denial of his right to have a separate point of view

Discontent with the accepted

Don't like unhealthy people

Easy coarseness which is a mark of caste

Fresh journey through the fields of thought

>From a position of security, to watch the sufferings of others

Good form

Half a century of sympathy with weddings of all sorts

Happy as a horse is happy who never leaves his stall

Her splendid optimism, damped him

How fine a thing is virtue

Hypnotised and fascinated even by her failings

I never managed to begin a hobby

If tongue be given to them, the flavour vanishes from ideas

If you can't find anything to make you laugh, pretend you do

Kissed a strange, cold, frightened look, into her eyes

Lacked-feelers

Like a scolded dog, he kept his troubled watch upon her face

Man who never rebuked a servant

Misgivings which attend on casual charity

Moral asthma

Moral Salesman

Moral steam-roller had passed over it

Morality-everybody's private instinct of self-preservation

Morals made by men

Never felt as yet the want of any occupation

No two human beings ever tell each other what they really feel

Not his fault that half the world was dark

Nothing in that book to startle him or make him think

Of course! The words seemed very much or very little

One from whom the half of life must be excluded

Overwork personified

Potent law of hobbies controlled the upper classes

Professional intolerance

Putting into words things that can't be put in words

Secret that her eyes were not his eyes

Settled down to complete the purchase of his wife.

She had not resisted, but he had kissed the smile away

Sign of private moral judgment was to have lost your soul

Something new, and spiced with tragic sauce

Supplied with their convictions by Society

Sympathy that has no insight

To do nothing is unworthy of a man!

Too "smart" to keep their heads for long above the water

Truth 's the very devil

Unconscious that they themselves were funny to others

Weighty dignity of attitude

Well, I don't want to see the gloomy side

What humbugs we all are

What they do not understand they dread and they despise

What's called virtue is nearly always only luck

When we begin to be real, we only really begin to be false

Words the Impostors

THE COUNTRY HOUSE
