@@@@@Jacques reached for her hand, placing his on @@@@@Jacques reached for her hand, placing his on top of hers“Conklin knows what he’s doingDavid told me that Alex was the best—‘field man,’ he called him—that ever worked for the Americans “You don’t understand, Johnny!” cried Marie, trying to control her voice and emotions, her wide eyes denying the attempt“David never said that, David Webb never knew that! Jason Bourne said it, and he’s back! That ice-cold calculating monster they created is back in David’s head You don’t know what it’s likeWith a look in those unfocused eyes that see things I can’t see—or with a tone of voice, a quiet freezing voice I don’t know—and I’m suddenly with a strangerJacques held up his free hand telling her to stop“Come on,” he said softly “The children? Jamie ?” She looked frantically aroundWhat do you expect David to do? Crawl inside a Wing or Ming dynasty vase and pretend his wife and children aren’t in danger—that only he is? Whether you ladies like it or not, we boys still think it’s up to us to keep the big cats from the caveWe honestly believe we’re more equippedWe revert to those strengths, the ugliest of them, of course, because we have toThat’s what David’s doing “When did little brother get so philosophical?” asked Marie, studying John St “That ain’t philosophy, girl, I just know itMost men do—apologies to the feminist crowd “Don’t apologize; most of us wouldn’t have it any other wayWould you believe that your big scholarly sister who called a lot of economic shots in Ottawa still yells like hell when she sees a mouse in our country kitchen, and goes into panic if it’s a rat?” “Certain bright women are more honest than others “I’ll accept what you say, Johnny, but you’re missing my pointDavid’s been doing so well these last five years, every month just a little bit better than the lastHe’ll never be totally cured, we all know that—he was damaged too severely—but the furies, his own personal furies, have almost disappearedThe solitary walks in the woods when he’d come back with hands bruised from attacking tree trunks; the quiet, stifled tears in his study late at night when he couldn’t remember what he was or what he’d done, thinking the worst of himself—they were gone, Johnny!

@@@@@She was learning herself
Charlotte Montague @@@@@She was learning herself Charlotte Montague observed the metamorphosis with interestThe practiced flirt vanished, replaced by a serene, somewhat amused woman who had only to turn her smoky green eyes on man, woman, or child to draw them, mesmerized, to her sideI used to work like a mule to be charming, Scarlett thought, now I don't do anything at allShe couldn't understand it at all, but she accepted the gift of it with simple gratitude"Did you say two hundred people, Charlotte? That's what you call a small dance?" "RelativelyThere are always five or six hundred at the State and Saint Patrick's balls and more than a thousand at the Drawing Rooms You certainly already know at least half the people who7l be there, probably many more than half "I still think it's tacky that you weren't invited "It's the way things are Charlotte was anticipating the evening with pleasureShe planned to go over account bookScarlett's success and Scarlett 5 extravagance greatly exceeded even Charlotte's most optimistic expectations felt like a nabob, and she liked to gloat over her wealthto the coffee hour alone was bringing in "gifts" of almost a pounds a week And there were still two weeks left in the SeasonShe would see Scarlett off to her privileged evening with a light heart Scarlett paused in the doorway of the Throne Room to enjoy the spectacle"You know, Jeffrey, I never get used to this place," she said to the Gentleman Usher"I'm like Cinderella at the ball "I'd never associate you with Cinderella, Scarlett," he said adoringly Scarlett's wink had put his shirt in her pocket when she entered the First Drawing Room"You'd be surprised," Scarlett saidShe nodded absentmindedly in response to bows and smiles from familiar faces nearbyIt couldn't be real, she couldn't really be he | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 2:51 am |

“That's something, at least
Jamie was @@@@@ “That's something, at least Jamie was trembling, alone in the space left by the exodusSurrounded by those I had to count as friends, I felt able to walk to his sideHe threw his arms around my waist, and I patted his back with shaky hands “It's okay,” I lied in a whisper I knew even a fool would hear the false note in my voice, and Jamie was not a fool “He won't hurt you,” Jamie said thickly, struggling against the tears I could see in his eyes I was appalled–I could feel that my face was fixed in lines of horrorJared was right–howcould Jeb have let this happen? If they'd killed me the first day here, before Jamie had ever seen me… Or that first week, while Jared kept me isolated from everyone, before Jamie and I had become friends… Or if I had just kept my mouth shut about Melanie… It was too late for all thatMy arms tightened around the child Melanie was just as aghast Itoldyou it was a bad idea to tell him everything, I reminded her What will it do to him now, when we die? It's going to be terribleHe'll be traumatized and scarred and devastated – Melanie interrupted meBut what can we do? Not die, I suppose Melanie and I thought about the likelihood of our survival and felt despair Ian thumped Jamie on the back–I could feel the motion reverberate through both our bodies “Don't agonize over it, kid,” he said“You're not in this alone “They're just shocked, that's all I recognized Trudy's alto voice behind me“Once we get a chance to explain, they'll see reason “See reason?

@@@@@Profanity or vulgarity always seemed to @@@@@Profanity or vulgarity always seemed to scrape the General's spine The General's eyes closed as if he were contemplating the damage wreaked inside himselfWhen he opened them, he spoke in a low mild voice He stared at Hearn dourly for a moment, and then said, "Suppose you salute me When Hearn had complied, the General smiled slightly, distastefully"Pretty crude treatment, isn't it, Robert? All right, at ease The bastard! And yet with it, there was an angry reluctant admirationThe General treated him as an equalalmost always, and then at the proper moment jerked him again from the end of a string, established the fundamental relationship of general to lieutenant with an abrupt startling shock like the slap of a wet towelAnd afterward always his voice like a treacherous unguent which smarted instead of salving the pain"Wasn't very fair of me, was it, Robert?" "No, sir "You've seen too many moviesIf you're holding a gun and you shoot a defenseless man, then you're a poor creature, a dastardly personThat's a perfectly ridiculous idea, you realizeThe fact that you're holding the gun and the other man is not is no accidentIt's a product of everything you've achieved, it assumes that if you'reyou're aware enough, you have the gun when you need it "I've heard that idea before Hearn moved his foot slowly "Are we going into that attention business again?" The General chuckled"Robert, there's a stubbornness in you which is disappointing to meI had some hopes for you "I'm just a bounder "That's the thingall right, you're a reactionary just lik | | Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | | 2:51 am |
@@@@@When no longer under the
same roof with @@@@@When no longer under the same roof with Edmund, she trusted that Miss Crawford would have no motive for writing strong enough to overcome the trouble, and that at Portsmouth their correspondence would dwindle into nothing With such thoughts as these, among ten hundred others, Fanny proceeded in her journey safely and cheerfully, and as expeditiously as could rationally be hoped in the dirty month of FebruaryThey entered Oxford, but she could take only a hasty glimpse of Edmund’s college as they passed along, and made no stop anywhere till they reached Newbury, where a comfortable meal, uniting dinner and supper, wound up the enjoyments and fatigues of the day The next morning saw them off again at an early hour; and with no events, and no delays, they regularly advanced, and were in the environs of Portsmouth while there was yet daylight for Fanny to look around her, and wonder at the new buildingsThey passed the drawbridge, and entered the town; and the light was only beginning to fail as, guided by William’s powerful voice, they were rattled into a narrow street, leading from the High Street, and drawn up before the door of a small house now inhabited by Mr Fanny was all agitation and flutter; all hope and apprehension The moment they stopped, a trollopy-looking maidservant, seemingly in waiting for them at the door, stepped forward, and more intent on telling the news than giving them any help, immediately 328 Mansfield Park began with, “The Thrush is gone out of harbour, please sir, and one of the officers has been here to—” She was interrupted by a fine tall boy of eleven years old, who, rushing out of the house, pushed the maid aside, and while William was opening the chaise-door himself, called out, “You are just in timeWe have been looking for you this half-hourThe Thrush went out of harbour this morningIt was a beautiful sightAnd they think she will have her orders in a day or twoCampbell was here at four o’clock to ask for you: he has got one of the Thrush’s boats, and is going off to her at six, and hoped you would be here in time to go with him A stare or two at Fanny, as William helped her out of the carriage, was all the voluntary notice which this brother bestowed; but he made no objection to her kissing him, though still entirely engaged in detailing farther particulars of the Thrush’s going out of harbour, in which he had a strong right of interest, being to commence his career of seamanship in her at this very time Another moment and Fanny was in the narrow entrance-passage of the house, and in her mother’s arms, who met her there with looks of true kindness, and with features which Fanny loved the more, because they brought her aunt Bertram’s before her, and there were her two sisters: Susan, a well-grown fine girl of fourteen, and Betsey, the youngest of the family, about five—both glad to see her in their way, though with no advantage of manner in receiving her But manner Fanny did not wantWould they but love her, she should be satisfied She was then taken into a parlour, so small that her first conviction was of its being only a passage-room to something better, and she stood for a moment expecting to be invited on; but when she saw there was no other door, and that there were signs of habitation before her, she called back her thoughts, reproved herself, and grieved lest they should have been suspectedHer mother, however, could not stay long enough to suspect anythingShe was gone again to the street-door, to welcome William“Oh! my dear William, how glad I am to see youBut have you heard about the Thrush? She is gone out of harbour already; three days before we had any thought of it; and I do not know what I am to do about Sam’s things, they will never be ready in time; for she may have her orders to-morrow, 329 Jane Austen perhapsIt takes me quite unawaresAnd now you must be off for Spithead tooCampbell has been here, quite in a worry about you; and now what shall we do? I thought to have had such a comfortable evening with you, and here everything comes upon me at once Her son answered cheerfully, telling her that everything was always for the best; and making light of his own inconvenience in being obliged to hurry away so s | | Wednesday, December 29th, 2010 | | 2:51 am |

@@@@@The steady drone of the motor, the silence @@@@@The steady drone of the motor, the silence of everyone in the vehicle, and the heavy wet rustling of the jungle seemed to strip him of everything but the quick absorbed functioning of his mindAlone, settled by himself somewhere in space, he had to work this outThe storm had come with amazing rapidity, following in the wake of a Japanese attackTen minutes before the rain had begun, he had had a message from 2nd Battalion headquarters that a heavy fire fight had started before their linesAnd then the telephone lines had been cut to pieces in the storm, his headquarters had been laid flat, and the radio would not functionHe had no idea of what was happening at the frontBy now Hutchins might have pulled back 2nd BattalionThe Japs, driven on with a kind of frenzy generated by the gale, could conceivably have penetrated his front line in any number of placesWith no orders coming through to them, Lord knew what might happenIf only headquarters battery had its line open to the front At least he had moved a dozen tanks up two days ago to 2nd BattalionThey would never have been able to make it on the road tonight, nor, for that matter, could they advance now, but if necessary, a defense position could be organized around them tonightWhat chaos there could beThe entire line might be a series of isolated hedgehogs by tomorrowAnd there was nothing he could do until he got to a telephone lineAnything could developIn two days he might be back where he was when he started the pivoting operation When he reached that telephone line, the decisions would have to be almost immediateHe reviewed the personalities of his line officers, remembered the distinguishing characteristics, if there were any, of different companies, even individual platoonsHis acute memory reissued a spate of incidents and strength figures; he knew effectively where every gun and every man on Anopopei was placed, and all this knowledge passed in an undigested flow through his headAt the moment he was an extremely simple manEverything in him was functioning for one purpose, and from experience, with a confident unstated certainty, he knew that when demanded of him all this information would crystallize into the proper reactionsIf he built up enough tension his instincts would not fail him And with all this there was an intense and primitive rageThe storm had thwarted him, and his anger took childish forms | | Friday, December 24th, 2010 | | 2:51 am |
@@@@@It was of a much less poignant nature @@@@@It was of a much less poignant nature than what the others excited; but Sir Thomas was considering his happiness as very deeply involved in the offence of his sister and friend; cut off by it, as he must be, from the woman whom he had been pursuing with undoubted attachment and strong probability of success; and who, in everything but this despicable brother, would have been so eligible a connexionHe was aware of what Edmund must be suffering on his own behalf, in addition to all the rest, when they were in town: he had seen or conjectured his feelings; and, having reason to think that one interview with Miss Crawford had taken place, from which Edmund derived only increased distress, had been as anxious on that account as on others to get him out of town, and had engaged him in taking Fanny home to her aunt, with a view to his relief and benefit, no less than theirsFanny was not in the secret of her uncle’s feelings, Sir Thomas not in the secret of Miss Crawford’s characterHad he been privy to her conversation with his son, he would not have wished her to belong to him, though her twenty thousand pounds had been forty That Edmund must be for ever divided from Miss Crawford did not admit of a doubt with Fanny; and yet, till she knew that he felt the same, her own conviction was insufficientShe thought he did, but she wanted to be assured of itIf he would now speak to her with the unreserve which had sometimes been too much for her before, it would be most consoling; but that she found was not to be She seldom saw him: never aloneHe probably avoided being alone with herWhat was to be inferred? That his judgment submitted to all his own peculiar and bitter share of this family affliction, but that it was too keenly felt to be a subject of the slightest communication This must be his stateHe yielded, but it was with agonies which did not admit of speechLong, long would it be ere Miss Crawford’s name passed his lips again, or she could hope for a renewal of such confidential intercourse as had beenThey reached Mansfield on Thursday, and it was not 397 Jane Austen till Sunday evening that Edmund began to talk to her on the subject Sitting with her on Sunday evening—a wet Sunday evening— the very time of all others when, if a friend is at hand, the heart must be opened, and everything told; no one else in the room, except his mother, who, after hearing an affecting sermon, had cried herself to sleep, it was impossible not to speak; and so, with the usual beginnings, hardly to be traced as to what came first, and the usual declaration that if she would listen to him for a few minutes, he should be very brief, and certainly never tax her kindness in the same way again; she need not fear a repetition; it would be a subject prohibited entirely: he entered upon the luxury of relating circumstances and sensations of the first interest to himself, to one of whose affectionate sympathy he was quite convinced How Fanny listened, with what curiosity and concern, what pain and what delight, how the agitation of his voice was watched, and how carefully her own eyes were fixed on any object but himself, may be imaginedThe opening was alarmingHe had seen Miss CrawfordHe had been invited to see herHe had received a note from Lady Stornaway to beg him to call; and regarding it as what was meant to be the last, last interview of friendship, and investing her with all the feelings of shame and wretchedness which Crawford’s sister ought to have known, he had gone to her in such a state of mind, so softened, so devoted, as made it for a few moments impossible to Fanny’s fears that it should be the lastBut as he proceeded in his story, these fears were overShe had met him, he said, with a serious—certainly a serious—even an agitated air; but before he had been able to speak one intelligible sentence, she had introduced the subject in a manner which he owned had shocked him“‘I heard you were in town,’ said she; ‘I wanted to see youLet us talk over this sad businessWhat can equal the folly of our two relations?’ I could not answer, but I believe my looks spok | | Thursday, December 23rd, 2010 | | 2:51 am |
