LORD ORMONT AND HIS AMINTA, ALL[GM#88][GM88V10.TXT]4482

A bird that won't roast or boil or stew

A woman, and would therefore listen to nonsense

A free-thinker startles him as a kind of demon

A female free-thinker is one of Satan's concubines

Acting is not of the high class which conceals the art

Affected misapprehensions

Ah! we fall into their fictions

All that Matey and Browny were forbidden to write they looked

And not be beaten by an acknowledged defeat

Any excess pushes to craziness

As well ask (women) how a battle-field concerns them!

Bad luck's not repeated every day Keep heart for the good

Bad laws are best broken

Began the game of Pull

Being in heart and mind the brother to the sister with women

Botched mendings will only make them worse

Bounds of his intelligence closed their four walls

Boys who can appreciate brave deeds are capable of doing them

Boys, of course--but men, too!

But had sunk to climb on a firmer footing

By nature incapable of asking pardon

Cajoled like a twenty-year-old yahoo at college

Careful not to smell of his office

Challenged him to lead up to her desired stormy scene

Chose to conceive that he thought abstractedly

Consciousness of some guilt when vowing itself innocent

Consign discussion to silence with the cynical closure

Convictions we store--wherewith to shape our destinies

Convincing themselves that they impersonate sagacity

Could not understand enthusiasm for the schoolmaster's career

Could we--we might be friends

Curious thing would be if curious things should fail to happen

Death is only the other side of the ditch

Death is always next door

Desire of it destroyed it

Detestable feminine storms enveloping men weak enough

Didn't say a word No use in talking about feelings

Distaste for all exercise once pleasurable

Divided lovers in presence

Enthusiasm struck and tightened the loose chord of scepticism

Enthusiast, when not lyrical, is perilously near to boring

Exult in imagination of an escape up to the moment of capture

Few men can forbear to tell a spicy story of their friends

Greatest of men; who have to learn from the loss of the woman

Having contracted the fatal habit of irony

He had to shake up wrath over his grievances

He had gone, and the day lived again for both of them

He gave a slight sign of restiveness, and was allowed to go

He loathed a skulker

He took small account of the operations of the feelings

He began ambitiously--It's the way at the beginning

Her vehement fighting against facts

Her duel with Time

His aim to win the woman acknowledged no obstacle in the means

His restored sense of possession

Hopeless task of defending a woman from a woman

How to compromise the matter for the sake of peace?

I have all the luxuries--enough to loathe them

I hate old age It changes you so

I could be in love with her cruelty, if only I had her near me

I look on the back of life

I want no more, except to be taught to work

I married a cook She expects a big appetite

I'm for a rational Deity

If the world is hostile we are not to blame it

Ignorance roaring behind a mask of sarcasm

Increase of dissatisfaction with the more she got

Lawyers hold the keys of the great world

Learn--principally not to be afraid of ideas

Loathing of artifice to raise emotion

Look well behind

Lucky accidents are anticipated only by fools

Magnify an offence in the ratio of our vanity

Man who helps me to read the world and men as they are

Meant to vanquish her with the dominating patience

Men bore the blame, though the women were rightly punished

Men who believe that there is a virtue in imprecations

Naked original ideas, are acceptable at no time

Napoleon's treatment of women is excellent example

Necessity's offspring

Never nurse an injury, great or small

Nevertheless, inclinations are an infidelity

No love can be without jealousy

Not daring risk of office by offending the taxpayer

Not the indignant and the frozen, but the genially indifferent

Not men of brains, but the men of aptitudes

Old age is a prison wall between us and young people

One has to feel strong in a delicate position

One night, and her character's gone

One is a fish to her hook; another a moth to her light

Orderliness, from which men are privately exempt

Our love and labour are constantly on trial

Passion added to a bowl of reason makes a sophist's mess

People were virtuous in past days: they counted their sinners

Perhaps inspire him, if he would let her breathe

Person in another world beyond this world of blood

Policy seems to petrify their minds

Practical for having an addiction to the palpable

Professional Puritans

Published Memoirs indicate the end of a man's activity

Rage of a conceited schemer tricked

Regularity of the grin of dentistry

Respect one another's affectations

Screams of an uninjured lady

Selfishness and icy inaccessibility to emotion

She had to be the hypocrite or else--leap

She had a thirsting mind

Silence was doing the work of a scourge

Smile she had in reserve for serviceable persons

Snatch her from a possessor who forfeited by undervaluing her

So says the minute Years are before you

That pit of one of their dead silences

The despot is alert at every issue, to every chance

The spending, never harvesting, world

The shots hit us behind you

The terrible aggregate social woman

The next ten minutes will decide our destinies

The woman side of him

The good life gone lives on in the mind

The beat of a heart with a dread like a shot in it

There is no history of events below the surface

There are women who go through life not knowing love

They want you to show them what they 'd like the world to be

Things are not equal

Things were lumpish and gloomy that day of the week

This female talk of the eternities

Titles showered on the women who take free breath of air

To males, all ideas are female until they are made facts

To time and a wife it is no disgrace for a man to bend

To know how to take a licking, that wins in the end

Uncommon unprogressiveness

Venus of nature was melting into a Venus of art

Violent summons to accept, which is a provocation to deny

We cannot, men or woman, control the heart in sleep at night

We shall want a war to teach the country the value of courage

We don't go together into a garden of roses

When duelling flourished on our land, frail women powerful

Where heart weds mind, or nature joins intellect

Who cries, Come on, and prays his gods you won't

Why he enjoyed the privilege of seeing, and was not beside her

With what little wisdom the world is governed

Women are happier enslaved

World against us It will not keep us from trying to serve

Years are the teachers of the great rocky natures

You'll have to guess at half of everything he tells you

You're going to be men, meaning something better than women
