As I dug in behind one of the bales we were using as protection, I grudgingly found myself agreeing with Oso's logic, especially when I imagined what would have happened to Missy if Old Knife's large party of screeching warriors had overrun our company.

For although I had crossed a corner of the hall on my way to the toilet I still could not tell for sure how far to the rear the darkness extended.

I could observe the two fans down at the end, but their size in themselves meant nothing to me as long as I had no measure of comparison.

I had for some time been hoping, in vain, for one of the dim figures to pass between the fan vents and myself.

It was, I felt, possible that they were men who, having received no tickets for that day, had remained in the hall, to sleep perhaps, in the corners farthest removed from the counter with its overhead light.

I had signed it off on the forms.

Although I had been inside it I had not yet seen it functioning.

As I had expected, he insisted that my visits to the hall would do nothing to further the process of my application.

I was at once disappointed, although just what I had expected him to look like I could not have explained.

I expected Brassnose -- as a man with a strain of Melanesian in his blood -- to speak to them.

The debate needed no additional controversy and soon I could ask each individually what he expected from life, what his hopes were and what his fears.

The funeral for my husband was just what I wanted and I paid a fair price, far less than I had expected to pay.

Kahler continued: `` I fixed his dog the other day and I guess he's sore, so I expected him to come barging in ''.

I thought she'd gone upstairs and expected to hear she had.

Even though I have always had a genius for `` throwing myself '' into every role and `` playing it for all it's worth '', no actress can be expected to do her best work when her fortune, her reputation, her livelihood, her home and her nation itself are all imperilled.

Instead of the expected `` annoyances '' due to the nature of his mission, he received many calling cards and invitations from `` gentlemen of mark, on whom I had no sort of claim, & have had many more invitations than I could accept ''.

There is much more freedom in the schools here than I expected -- some think too much.

I don't know that it was always as rewarding as I had expected it to be.

During World War I, Zionist volunteers fought in the Jewish Legion of the British Army against the Ottomans because they expected the British would be less opposed to the Zionist project than the Ottoman authorities.

If I could make myself feel the same way

I said that it didn't make any difference to me either, as far as I knew.

I clapped the big man with the bleached hair on his shoulder and said heartily, hoping it would make an impression on the women: `` This one is the maku Frayne.

`` Why '', he went on, `` when Rob asked me if he could make his dive on this trip, I didn't think twice about it.

`` Can I make you one ''??

I will make him distributor for all of Florida -- a big market.

And when I make the dive again '' -- He paused ; ;

When it comes to this, I shall prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, without the base alloy of hypocrisy '' ( His emphasis )

But I suspect that the old Roman was referring to change made under military occupation -- the sort of change which Tacitus was talking about when he said, `` They make a desert, and call it peace '' ( `` Solitudinem faciunt, pacem appellant ''.

One of the obvious conclusions we can make on the basis of the last election, I suppose, is that we, the majority, were dissatisfied with Eisenhower conservatism.

The fact that he has cast over those materials the light of a skeptical mind does not make him any the less Southern, I rather think, for the South has been no more solid than other regions except in the political and related areas where patronage and force and intimidation and fear may produce a surface uniformity.

To you, for instance, the word innocence, in this connotation, probably retained its Biblical, or should I say technical sense, and therefore I suppose I must make myself quite clear by saying that I lost -- or rather handed over -- what you would have considered to be my innocence two weeks before I was legally entitled, and in fact by oath required, to hand it over along with what other goods and bads I had.

I shall continue to urge the American people, in the interests of their own security, prosperity and peace, to make sure that their own part of this great project be amply and cheerfully supported.
