This impressed me, until I realized how limited was his sphere of influence.

She realized I'd have to notify the police, but fervently hoped I could avoid mentioning her name.

Even as she was telling me about it I became aware of a give-away flush that suffused her neck and moved upwards to her cheeks, and subconsciously I realized that when she entered the store she did not switch on the lights.

Even as I said it I realized that an education can be invaluable.

In spots such as the elbows and knees the second skin is worn off and I realized the aborigines were much darker than they appeared ; ;

The rocking, I realized, is the single element in the story that carries the erotic message, the unspoken and unconscious undercurrent that would mar the innocence of a child's fantasy and disturb the effects of the work if it were made explicit.

Never until in this work of S-D organization have I realized and felt the attitude and experience of a Teacher.

I wouldn't hear of it because it meant giving up the `` line '', though I realized I was in poor shape physically.

For the near term, however, it must be realized that the industrial and commercial market is somewhat more sensitive to general business conditions than is the military market, and for this reason I would expect that any gain in 1961 may be somewhat smaller than those of recent years ; ;

When I looked up the actual date of his birth and found it to be March 15th, I realized that Roy was born under the right zodiacal sign for a watercolorist: the water sign of Pisces ( February 18 thru March 20 ).

I realized that Hamlet was faced with an entirely different problem, but his agony could have been no greater.

Then I realized that she had been deliberately showing me, this time, what Granny was like ; ;

The last time I saw Bird, at Jimbo's Bob City, he was so gone -- so blind to the world -- that he literally sat down on me before he realized I was there.

I sat where I could watch the exit and realized I was hungry.

I guess it was at that moment that I realized what I was up against in the person of Lucille Warren.

God in Heaven, I can't refuse you now.

`` I don't mind washing dishes now and then '', he said pleasantly.

This desire, I went on, growing voluble as my conviction was aroused, had mounted at such a rate recently that I now found its realization necessary not only to my physical but also to my spiritual wellbeing.

`` Hell, that's all right, buddy '', the Indian ( I now guessed ) said.

There had been a good second or two during which my muffler had been blowing out, and now I was certain I'd seen her somewhere before.

I said, `` O.K., so now only Blake knows.

If it were not for an old professor who made me read the classics I would have been stymied on what to do, and now I understand why they are classics ; ;

and now I think we can use the knowledge they passed on to us.

`` And now '', said Tilghman with deadly calm, `` I'll repeat what I said.

I been riding train for a ways now ''.

I followed them in the jeep and now they did not care.

His London contract was rescinded, and now, he explains cheerfully, as a bright smile lightens his intense, mobile face, `` I conduct only one hundred and twenty concerts ''!!

`` I have just come from viewing a man who had made the fortune of his country, but now is working all night in order to support his family '', he reflected.

And so I would only touch upon it now ( much as I have long wanted to write a book about it ).

Both I and my feelings come up out of a chain of events that fan out into the past into sources that are ultimately very unlike the entity which I now am.

The Commission seems to represent the viewpoint of what I would call the unconscious liberal, but not unconscious enough, to invoke the now taboo symbolism of socialism.

If I now risk some comparisons with Sons And Lovers let it be clear that I am not comparing the two works or judging their merits ; ;

Yet this passion for passion, now that I look back on it with passion spent, seems somewhat overblown and operatic, though as a diva Miss Millay perfectly controlled her notes.

I can see us now.

I fled, however, not from what might have been the natural fear of being unable to disguise from you that the things about my bridegroom -- in the sense you meant the word `` things '' -- which you had been galvanizing yourself to tell me as a painful part of your maternal duty were things which I had already insisted upon finding out for myself ( despite, I may now say, the unspeakable awkwardness of making the discovery on principle, yes, on principle, and in cold blood ) because I was resolved, as a modern woman, not to be a mollycoddle waiting for Life but to seize Life by the throat.

`` I saw your fire '', she said, speaking slowly, making an effort to control her anger.

Where I go, she goes -- and the kids with us.

I let up on the accelerator, only to gradually reach again the 60 m.p.h. which would, I hoped, overhaul Herry and the blonde, and as there were cars whose drivers apparently had something more important to catch than had I, Mrs. Major Roebuck settled down to practicing on Corporal Johnson the kittenish wiles she would need when making her duty call on Colonel and Mrs. Somebody in Sante Fe.

`` No, I remembered reading about you in the papers and that you lived here, and when it happened all I could think of was '' -- This time she stopped the rush of words herself.

`` And I so want the part '', she said.

As far as I was concerned, she had already and had dandily shown what she could do.

Seeming much relieved, she smiled one of those worth-waiting-for smiles, and I smiled all the way into the bedroom.

I showed her the shower and tub, and she said, smiling, `` If you really don't mind, I think I'll get clean in the shower, then soak for a few minutes in your tub.

True, she was my Aunt, married to an Uncle related to me only by marriage, but why she had married a man twice her age, and more, perhaps, I did not know or much care.

Something clicked in this instance, but I treated her circumspectly and I felt that she knew it, for we both kept our distance.

And then I became aware that she, too, glanced at me surreptitiously.
