If many of the characters in contemporary novels appear to be the bloodless relations of characters in a case history it is because the novelist is often forgetful today that those things that we call character manifest themselves in surface behavior, that the ego is still the executive agency of personality, and that all we know of personality must be discerned through the ego.

If he is a traditionalist, he is an eclectic traditionalist.

If our sincerity is granted, and it is granted, the discrepancy can only be explained by the fact that we have come to believe hearsay and legend about ourselves in preference to an understanding gained by earnest self-examination.

If ( a + b ) and ab were both algebraic, then this would be a polynomial with algebraic coefficients.

In universal algebra, a subalgebra of an algebra A is a subset S of A that also has the structure of an algebra of the same type when the algebraic operations are restricted to S. If the axioms of a kind of algebraic structure is described by equational laws, as is typically the case in universal algebra, then the only thing that needs to be checked is that S is closed under the operations.

If all axioms defining a class of algebras are identities, then the class of objects is a variety ( not to be confused with algebraic variety in the sense of algebraic geometry ).

If the situation is as above but the extension L of K is algebraic of infinite degree, then it is still possible for the integral closure S of R in L to be a Dedekind domain, but it is not guaranteed.

If P is a common point of two plane algebraic curves X and Y that is a non-singular point of both of them and, moreover, the tangent lines to X and Y at P are distinct then the intersection multiplicity is one.

If a is algebraic over K, then there are many non-zero polynomials g ( x ) with coefficients in K such that g ( a ) = 0.

If the problem of the quadrature of the circle is solved using only compass and straightedge, then an algebraic value of pi would be found, which is impossible.

If X is an affine algebraic set ( irreducible or not ) then the Zariski topology on it is defined simply to be the subspace topology induced by its inclusion into some Equivalently, it can be checked that:

If H is a left module over the ring R, one forms the ( algebraic ) character module H * consisting of all abelian group homomorphisms from H to Q / Z.

If the sick person wishes to receive the sacrament of penance, it is preferable that the priest make himself available for this during a previous visit ; but if the sick person must confess during the celebration of the sacrament of anointing, this confession replaces the penitential rite A passage of Scripture is read, and the priest may give a brief explanation of the reading, a short litany is said, and the priest lays his hands on the head of the sick person and then says a prayer of thanksgiving over the already blessed oil or, if necessary, blesses the oil himself.

If there is refraction at a collective spherical surface, or through a thin positive lens, O ' 2 will lie in front of O ' 1 so long as the angle u2 is greater than u1 ( under correction ); and conversely with a dispersive surface or lenses ( over correction ).
