“I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look, or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.”“My beauty you had early withstood, and as for my manners—my behaviour to you was at least always bordering on the uncivil, and I neve..
I was more confounded with the money than I was before with the love, and began to be so elevated that I scarce knew the ground I stood on.

‘‘Ah, that’s not Jekyll’s voice—it’s Hyde’s!’’ cried Utterson. ‘‘Down with the door, Poole.’’ Poole swung the axe over his shoulder; the blow shook the building, and the red baize door leaped against the lock and hinges. A dismal screech, as of mere animal terror, rang from the cabinet. Up went the ..
“Now, don’t be angry after you’ve been afraid. That’s the worst kind of cowardice,” said the troop-horse. “Anybody can be forgiven for being scared in the night, I think, if they see things they don’t understand. We’ve broken out of our pickets, again and again, four hundred and fifty of us, just be..
His heart beat faster and faster as Daisy’s white face came up to his own.

The heavens do not fall for such a trifle. Would they have fallen, I wonder, if I had rendered Kurtz that ju..
The monster saw my determination in my face and gnashed his teeth in the impotence of anger. “Shall each man,” cried he, “find a wife for his bosom, and each beast have his mate, and I be alone? I had feelings of affection, and they were requited by detestation and scorn. Man! You may hate, but bewa..

“That is good image,” he said. “Well, I shall tell you. My thesis is this: I want you to believe.” “To believe what?” “To believe in things that you cannot. Let me illustrate.

“I wear the chain I forged in life”, replied the Ghost. “I made it link by link, and yard by yard; I girded it on of my own free will, and of my own free will I wore it. Is its pattern strange to you?” Scrooge trembled more and more. “Or would you know”, pursued the Ghost, “the weight and length of ..
