“For everything of that nature I will be @@@@@ “For everything of that nature I will be answerable,” said Tom, in a decided tone“His house shall not be hurtI have quite as great an interest in being careful of his house as you can have; and as to such alterations as I was suggesting just now, such as moving a bookcase, or unlocking a door, or even as using the billiard-room for the space of a week without playing at billiards in it, you might just as well suppose he would object to our sitting more in this room, and less in the breakfast-room, than we did before he went away, or to my sister’s pianoforte being moved from one side of the room to the otherAbsolute nonsense!” “The innovation, if not wrong as an innovation, will be wrong as an expense “Yes, the expense of such an undertaking would be prodigious! 113 Jane Austen Perhaps it might cost a whole twenty poundsSomething of a theatre we must have undoubtedly, but it will be on the simplest plan: a green curtain and a little carpenter’s work, and that’s all; and as the carpenter’s work may be all done at home by Christopher Jackson himself, it will be too absurd to talk of expense; and as long as Jackson is employed, everything will be right with Sir ThomasDon’t imagine that nobody in this house can see or judge but yourself Don’t act yourself, if you do not like it, but don’t expect to govern everybody else “No, as to acting myself,” said Edmund, “that I absolutely protest against Tom walked out of the room as he said it, and Edmund was left to sit down and stir the fire in thoughtful vexation Fanny, who had heard it all, and borne Edmund company in every feeling throughout the whole, now ventured to say, in her anxiety to suggest some comfort, “Perhaps they may not be able to find any play to suit themYour brother’s taste and your sisters’ seem very different “I have no hope there, FannyIf they persist in the scheme, they will find somethingI shall speak to my sisters and try to dissuade them, and that is all I can do “I should think my aunt Norris would be on your side “I dare say she would, but she has no influence with either Tom or my sisters that could be of any use; and if I cannot convince them myself, I shall let things take their course, without attempting it through herFamily squabbling is the greatest evil of all, and we had better do anything than be altogether by the ears His sisters, to whom he had an opportunity of speaking the next morning, were quite as impatient of his advice, quite as unyielding to his representation, quite as determined in the cause of pleasure, as TomTheir mother had no objection to the plan, and they were not in the least afraid of their father’s disapprobationThere could be no harm in what had been done in so many respectable families, and by so many women of the first consideration; and it must be scrupulousness run mad that could see anything to censure in a plan like theirs, comprehending only brothers and sisters and intimate friends, and which would never be heard of beyond them114 Mansfield Park selvesJulia did seem inclined to admit that Maria’s situation might require particular caution and delicacy—but that could not extend to her—she was at liberty; and Maria evidently considered her engagement as only raising her so much more above restraint, and leaving her less occasion than Julia to consult either father or mother Edmund had little to hope, but he was still urging the subject when Henry Crawford entered the room, fresh from the Parsonage, calling out, “No want of hands in our theatre, Miss BertramNo want of understrappers: my sister desires her love, and hopes to be admitted into the company, and will be happy to take the part of any old duenna or tame confidante, that you may not like to do yourselves Maria gave Edmund a glance, which meant, “What say you now? Can we be wrong if Mary Crawford feels the same?” And Edmund, silenced, was obliged to acknowledge that the charm of acting might well carry fascination to the mind of genius; and with the ingenuity of love, to dwell more on the obliging, accommodating purport of the message than on anything | | 7:11 am |

And why did her own cousins treat her like a stranger in her own house? After everyone left and the servants removed all traces of the party, Scarlett went from room to room aloneWell, I like it, she decidedIt was, she thought, a damn sight prettier than Dunmore Landing would ever be, or ever wasShe stood in the midst of the reflected images of the High Kings and imagined Rhett there with her, full of envy and admirationIt would be years from now, when Cat was grown, and he would be heartsick that he had missed seeing his daughter grow up to become the beautiful heiress of the home of the O'HarasScarlett ran to the stairs and up them and through the corridor to Cat's room She was sitting at her little table, carefully pouring milk into a cup for her big tabbyOcras was watching attentively from his commanding position in the center of the table"Sit down, Momma," Cat invite | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 1:19 pm |

It could have been an act, but even if it @@@@@ It could have been an act, but even if it was, there wasn't much I could do about itSilently, I crept deeper into the room, till I felt the edge of the mattress against my backI'd promised myself that I would not disturb this place, but it probably wouldn't hurt anything if I just curled up on the foot of the bedThe floor was rough and so hard The sound of the doctor's soft snoring was comforting; even if it was put on to calm me, at least I knew exactly where he was in the darkness Live or die, I figured I might as well go ahead and sleepI was dog tired, as Melanie would sayThe mattress was softer than anything I'd touched since coming hereI relaxed, sinking in… There was a low shuffling sound–it was inside the room with meMy eyes popped open, and I could see a shadow between the moonlit ceiling and meOutside, the doctor's snores continued uninterrupted CHAPTER 23 Confessed The shadow was huge and misshapenIt loomed over me, top-heavy, swinging closer to my face I think I meant to scream, but the sound got trapped in my throat, and all that came out was a breathless squeak “Shh, it's just me,” Jamie whisperedSomething bulky and roundish rolled from his shoulders and plopped softly to the floorWhen it was gone I could see his true, lithe shadow against the moonlight I caught a few gasps of air, my hand clutching at my throat “Sorry,” he whispered, sitting down on the edge of the mattress“I guess that was pretty stupidI was trying not to wake Doc–I didn't even think how I would scare youYou okay?” He patted my ankle, which was the part of me closest to him “Sure,” I huffed, still breathless “Sorry,” he muttered again “What are you doing here, Jamie?

@@@@@Fraternal love, sometimes almost everything, @@@@@Fraternal love, sometimes almost everything, is at others worse than nothingBut with William and Fanny Price it was still a sentiment in all its prime and freshness, wounded by no opposition of interest, cooled by no separate attachment, and feeling the influence of time and absence only in its increase An affection so amiable was advancing each in the opinion of all who had hearts to value anything goodHenry Crawford was as much struck with it as anyHe honoured the warm-hearted, blunt fondness of the young sailor, which led him to say, with his hands stretched towards Fanny’s head, “Do you know, I begin to like that queer fashion already, though when I first heard of such things being done in England, I could not believe it; and when MrsBrown, and the other women at the Commissioner’s at Gibraltar, appeared in the same trim, I thought they were mad; but Fanny can reconcile me to anything”; and saw, with lively admiration, the glow of Fanny’s cheek, the brightness of her eye, the deep interest, the absorbed attention, while her brother was describing any of the imminent hazards, or terrific scenes, which such a period at sea must supply It was a picture which Henry Crawford had moral taste enough to valueFanny’s attractions increased—increased twofold; for the sensibility which beautified her complexion and illumined her countenance was an attraction in itselfHe was no longer in doubt of the capabilities of her heartShe had feeling, genuine feelingIt would 204 Mansfield Park be something to be loved by such a girl, to excite the first ardours of her young unsophisticated mind! She interested him more than he had foreseenA fortnight was not enoughHis stay became indefinite William was often called on by his uncle to be the talkerHis recitals were amusing in themselves to Sir Thomas, but the chief object in seeking them was to understand the reciter, to know the young man by his histories; and he listened to his clear, simple, spirited details with full satisfaction, seeing in them the proof of good principles, professional knowledge, energy, courage, and cheerfulness, everything that could deserve or promise wellYoung as he was, William had already seen a great dealHe had been in the Mediterranean; in the West Indies; in the Mediterranean again; had been often taken on shore by the favour of his captain, and in the course of seven years had known every variety of danger which sea and war together could offerWith such means in his power he had a right to be listened to; and though MrsNorris could fidget about the room, and disturb everybody in quest of two needlefuls of thread or a second-hand shirt button, in the midst of her nephew’s account of a shipwreck or an engagement, everybody else was attentive; and even Lady Bertram could not hear of such horrors unmoved, or without sometimes lifting her eyes from her work to say, “Dear me! how disagreeable! I wonder anybody can ever go to sea To Henry Crawford they gave a different feelingHe longed to have been at sea, and seen and done and suffered as muchHis heart was warmed, his fancy fired, and he felt the highest respect for a lad who, before he was twenty, had gone through such bodily hardships and given such proofs of mindThe glory of heroism, of usefulness, of exertion, of endurance, made his own habits of selfish indulgence appear in shameful contrast; and he wished he had been a William Price, distinguishing himself and working his way to fortune and consequence with so much self-respect and happy ardour, instead of what he was! The wish was rather eager than lastingHe was roused from the reverie of retrospection and regret produced by it, by some inquiry from Edmund as to his plans for the next day’s hunting; and he found it was as well to be a man of fortune at once with horses and 205 Jane Austen grooms at his commandIn one respect it was better, as it gave him the means of conferring a kindness where he wished to oblige | | 7:11 am |

The sound startled me; the unexpected @@@@@ The sound startled me; the unexpected object frightened mePerhaps I'd made a wrong turn and wasn't anywhere near my holePerhaps I was in someone's living spaceI ran through the memory of my recent journey in my head, wondering how I could have gotten so turned about Meanwhile, I listened for some reaction to my crashing fall, holding absolutely still in the darkness There was nothing–no reaction, no soundIt was only dark and stuffy and humid, as it always was, and so silent that I knew I must be alone Carefully, trying to make as little noise as possible, I took stock of my surroundings My hands were stuck in somethingI pulled them free, tracing the contours of what felt like a cardboard box–a cardboard box with a sheet of thin, crackly plastic on top that my hands had fallen throughI felt around inside the box and found a layer of more crackly plastic–small rectangles that made a lot of noise when I handled themI retreated quickly, afraid of drawing attention to myself I remembered that I'd thought I'd found the top of the holeI searched to my left and found more stacks of cardboard squares on that sideI tried to find the top of the stack and had to stand in order to do so–it was as high as my headI searched until I found the wall, and then the hole, exactly where I'd thought it wasI tried to climb in to ascertain if it really was the same place–one second on that bowed floor and I would know it for certain–but I could not get any farther than the openingIt, too, was crammed full of boxes Stymied, I explored with my hands, moving back out into the hallI found I could go no deeper down the passageway; it was entirely filled with the mysterious cardboard squares As I hunted along the floor, trying to understand, I found something different from the crowd of boxesIt was rough fabric, like burlap, a sack full of something heavy that shifted with a quiet hissing sound when I nudged itI kneaded the sack with my hands, less alarmed by the low hiss than by the plastic crackle–it seemed unlikely that this sound would alert anyone to my presence Suddenly, it all came clearIt was the smell that did | | Saturday, December 25th, 2010 | | 1:22 pm |
@@@@@I told him about the Mists Planet–how it @@@@@I told him about the Mists Planet–how it felt to have thick white fur and four hearts to keep warm, how to give claw beasts a wide berth I started to tell him about the Planet of the Flowers, about the color and the light, but he interrupted me with a new question “What about the little green guys with the triangle heads and the big black eyes? The ones who crashed in Roswell and all thatWas that you guys?” “Nope, not us “Was it all fake?” “I don't know–maybe, maybe notIt's a big universe, and there's a lot of company out there “How did you come here, then–if you weren't the little green guys, who were you? You had to have bodies to move and stuff, right?” “Right,” I agreed, surprised at his grasp of the facts at handI shouldn't have been surprised–I knew how bright he was, his mind like a thirsty sponge“We used our Spider selves in the very beginning, to get things started “Spiders?” I told him about the Spiders–a fascinating speciesBrilliant, the most incredible minds we'd ever come across, and each Spider had three of themThree brains, one in each section of their segmented bodiesWe'd yet to find a problem they couldn't solve for usAnd yet they were so coldly analytical that they rarely came up with a problem they were curious enough to solve for themselvesOf all our hosts, the Spiders welcomed our occupation the mostThey barely noticed the difference, and when they did, they seemed to appreciate the direction we provided The few souls who had walked on the surface of the Spiders' planet before implantation told us that it was cold and gray–no wonder the Spiders only saw in black and white and had a limited sense of temperatureThe Spiders lived short lives, but the young were born knowing everything their parent had, so no knowledge was lost I'd lived out one of the short life terms of the species and then left with no desire to returnThe amazing clarity of my thoughts, the easy answers that came to any question almost without effort, the march and dance of numbers were no substitute for emotion and color, which I could only vaguely understand when inside that bodyI wondered how any soul could be content there, but the planet had been self-sufficient for thousands of Earth yearsIt was still open for settling only because the Spiders reproduced so quickly–great sacs of eggs I started to tell Jamie how the offensive had been launched hereThe Spiders were our best engineers–the ships they made for us danced nimbly and undetectably through the starsThe Spiders' bodies were almost as useful as their minds: four long legs to each segment–from which they'd earned their nickname on this planet–and twelve-fingered hands on each l | | 7:19 am |

"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?"

@@@@@Susan, who had an innate taste
for the @@@@@Susan, who had an innate taste for the genteel and well-appointed, was eager to hear, and Fanny could not but indulge herself in dwelling on so beloved a theme She hoped it was not wrong; though, after a time, Susan’s very great admiration of everything said or done in her uncle’s house, and earnest longing to go into Northamptonshire, seemed almost to blame her for exciting feelings which could not be gratified Poor Susan was very little better fitted for home than her elder 367 Jane Austen sister; and as Fanny grew thoroughly to understand this, she began to feel that when her own release from Portsmouth came, her happiness would have a material drawback in leaving Susan behind That a girl so capable of being made everything good should be left in such hands, distressed her more and moreWere she likely to have a home to invite her to, what a blessing it would be! And had it been possible for her to return MrCrawford’s regard, the probability of his being very far from objecting to such a measure would have been the greatest increase of all her own comfortsShe thought he was really good-tempered, and could fancy his entering into a plan of that sort most pleasantly 368 Mansfield Park CHAPTER XLIV SEVEN WEEKS of the two months were very nearly gone, when the one letter, the letter from Edmund, so long expected, was put into Fanny’s handsAs she opened, and saw its length, she prepared herself for a minute detail of happiness and a profusion of love and praise towards the fortunate creature who was now mistress of his fateThese were the contents— “My Dear Fanny,—Excuse me that I have not written before Crawford told me that you were wishing to hear from me, but I found it impossible to write from London, and persuaded myself that you would understand my silenceCould I have sent a few happy lines, they should not have been wanting, but nothing of that nature was ever in my powerI am returned to Mansfield in a less assured state that when I left itMy hopes are much weakerYou are probably aware of this alreadySo very fond of you as Miss Crawford is, it is most natural that she should tell you enough of her own feelings to furnish a tolerable guess at mineI will not be prevented, however, from making my own communicationOur confidences in you need not clashThere is something soothing in the idea that we have the same friend, and that whatever unhappy differences of opinion may exist between us, we are united in our love of youIt will be a comfort to me to tell you how things now are, and what are my present plans, if plans I can be said to haveI have been returned since SaturdayI was three weeks in London, and saw her (for London) very oftenI had every attention from the Frasers that could be reasonably expectedI dare say I was not reasonable in carrying with me hopes of an intercourse at all like that of MansfieldIt was her manner, however, rather than any unfrequency of meeti |
