THE AMAZING MARRIAGE, ENTIRE [GM#94][GM94V10.TXT]4488

A dumb tongue can be a heavy liar

Accounting his tight blue tail coat and brass buttons a victory

Advised not to push at a shut gate

Always the shout for more produced it ("News")

Amused after their tiresome work of slaughter

And her voice, against herself, was for England

Anecdotist to slaughter families for the amusement

As faith comes--no saying how; one swears by them

As for comparisons, they are flowers thrown into the fire

As if the age were the injury!

Be the woman and have the last word!

Bent double to gather things we have tossed away

Brains will beat Grim Death if we have enough of them

But a great success is full of temptations

Call of the great world's appetite for more (Invented news)

Charity that supplied the place of justice was not thanked

Cock-sure has crowed low by sunset

Contempt of military weapons and ridicule of the art of war

Could affect me then, without being flung at me

Country enclosed us to make us feel snug in our own importance

Courage to grapple with his pride and open his heart was wanting

Deeds only are the title

Detested titles, invented by the English

Did not know the nature of an oath, and was dismissed

Dogs' eyes have such a sick look of love

Drank to show his disdain of its powers

Drink is their death's river, rolling them on helpless

Earl of Cressett fell from his coach-box in a fit

Enemy's laugh is a bugle blown in the night

Everlastingly in this life the better pays for the worse

Fatal habit of superiority stopped his tongue

Father used to say, four hours for a man, six for a woman

Father and she were aware of one another without conversing

Festive board provided for them by the valour of their fathers

Flung him, pitied him, and passed on

Foe can spoil my face; he beats me if he spoils my temper

Fond, as they say, of his glass and his girl

Found that he 'cursed better upon water'

Fun, at any cost, is the one object worth a shot

Good-bye to sorrow for a while--Keep your tears for the living

Had got the trick of lying, through fear of telling the truth

Hard enough for a man to be married to a fool

He did not vastly respect beautiful women

He was a figure on a horse, and naught when off it

He had wealth for a likeness of strength

He wants the whip; ought to have had it regularly

He was the prisoner of his word

Heartily she thanked the girl for the excuse to cry

Hearts that make one soul do not separately count their gifts

Her intimacy with a man old enough to be her grandfather

Himself in the worn old surplice of the converted rake

I hate sleep: I hate anything that robs me of my will

Ideas in gestation are the dullest matter you can have

Injury forbids us to be friends again

Innocence and uncleanness may go together

It was an honest buss, but dear at ten thousand

Lies are usurers' coin we pay for ten thousand per cent

Life is the burlesque of young dreams

Limit was two bottles of port wine at a sitting

Little boy named Tommy Wedger said he saw a dead body go by

Look backward only to correct an error of conduct in future

Love of pleasure keeps us blind children

Magnificent in generosity; he had little humaneness

Make a girl drink her tears, if they ain't to be let fall

Meditations upon the errors of the general man, as a cover

Mighty Highnesses who had only smelt the outside edge of battle

Never forgave an injury without a return blow for it

No enemy's shot is equal to a weak heart in the act

Not afford to lose, and a disposition free of the craving to win

Not to be the idol, to have an aim of our own

Objects elevated even by a decayed world have their magnetism

On a morning when day and night were made one by fog

One idea is a bullet

Past, future, and present, the three weights upon humanity

Pebble may roll where it likes--not so the costly jewel

Poetic romance is delusion

Push me to condense my thoughts to a tight ball

Put material aid at a lower mark than gentleness

Puzzle to connect the foregoing and the succeeding

Quick to understand, she is in the quick of understanding

Reflection upon a statement is its lightning in advance

Religion condones offences: Philosophy has no forgiveness

Religion is the one refuge from women

Scorn titles which did not distinguish practical offices

Sensitiveness to the sting, which is not allowed to poison

Seventy, when most men are reaping and stacking their sins

She seemed really a soaring bird brought down by the fowler

She was thrust away because because he had offended

She stood with a dignity that the word did not express

She endured meekly, when there was no meekness

Should we leave a good deed half done

Showery, replied the admiral, as his cocked-hat was knocked off

So much for morality in those days!

So indulgent when they drop their blot on a lady's character

Steady shakes them

Strengthening the backbone for a bend of the knee in calamity

Style is the mantle of greatness

Sweetest on earth to her was to be prized by her brother

That sort of progenitor is your "permanent aristocracy"

The habit of the defensive paralyzes will

The embraced respected woman

The idol of the hour is the mob's wooden puppet

The divinely damnable naked truth won't wear ornaments

Their sneer withers

There is no driver like stomach

There's not an act of a man's life lies dead behind him

They could have pardoned her a younger lover

Those who have the careless chatter, the ready laugh

Those who know little and dread much

Thus are we stricken by the days of our youth

Tighter than ever I was tight I'll be to-night

To most men women are knaves or ninnies

Touch sin and you accommodate yourself to its vileness

Truth is, they have taken a stain from the life they lead

Very little parleying between determined men

Wakening to the claims of others--Youth's infant conscience

Warm, is hardly the word--Winter's warm on skates

We make our taskmasters of those to whom we have done a wrong

We shall go together; we shall not have to weep for one another

With one idea, we see nothing--nothing but itself

Woman finds herself on board a rudderless vessel

Women treat men as their tamed housemates

Wooing her with dog's eyes instead of words

Writer society delights in, to show what it is composed of

You played for gain, and that was a licenced thieving

You saw nothing but handkerchiefs out all over the theatre

You are to imagine that they know everything

You want me to flick your indecision
