2298 | Can the place of the star be determined more accurately by the latter method than it can when the telescope is dispensed with? |
2298 | Has not M. Palisa, for instance, discovered about eighty of such objects, and are there not hundreds of them known nowadays?" |
2298 | He appeals to the practical utility of the science, for what civilised nation could exist without having the means of measuring time? |
2298 | How was he to show that the sun actually did set earlier at Alexandria than it would in a city which lay a hundred miles to the west? |
2298 | I can imagine some one will say,"Oh, there was nothing so wonderful in that; are not planets always being discovered? |
2298 | If the father was so intensely gratified on this occasion, what would his feelings have been could he have lived to witness his son''s future career? |
2298 | On another occasion his father is said to have asked the boy,''What sort of things, do you think, are most alike?'' |
2298 | The father replied, after the Socratic method, by putting another question:''And what do you yourself suppose is the oldest of all things?'' |
2298 | The moon is certainly attracted to the earth, and yet the moon does not fall down; how is this to be accounted for? |
2298 | Would it not fall? |
2298 | You will not, I am sure, be hurt when I tell you that the workmanship( what else could be expected from so young a writer?) |

12340 | ''What is that he says?'' |
12340 | ''Where do you come from, little fellow?'' |

29031 | Medallion, 1785(?). |
29031 | On another occasion the father asked his son,"What sort of things do you think are most alike?" |
29031 | One doubtful point remains: are the stars scattered all through space? |
29031 | The father replied, after the Socratic manner,"And what do you suppose is the oldest of all things?" |
29031 | Walking with his father, he asked him"What was the oldest of all things?" |
29031 | Was the force that these distant pairs of suns obeyed, the force of gravitation? |
29031 | What may his name be? |
29031 | Who can say but your new star, which exceeds_ Saturn_ in its distance from the sun, may exceed him as much in magnificence of attendance? |
29031 | Why not, for instance, call them_ Concentric Comets_, or_ Planetary Comets_, or_ Cometary Planets_? |

29031 | _ Engraver_,----? |
29031 | or, if a single term must be found, why may we not coin such a phrase as_ Planetoid_ or_ Cometoid_?" |
19309 | But do you not teach grammar as well as reading? |
19309 | But have you never met with a failure to understand the instructions? |
19309 | But is he not a Liberal? |
19309 | Do you know anything of one of the sons who is a doctor? |
19309 | Do you not know me, Herr Professor? |
19309 | Have you ever been up there to see? |
19309 | How much money have you? |
19309 | I think he will be favorable to Mr. King,was the reply;"but would you give great weight to his opinion?" |
19309 | So you''re the boy that''s come to work for the doctor, are you? |
19309 | Well, Simon, did you read the piece? |
19309 | Well, what do you think of the book? |
19309 | What did you hit the child for? |
19309 | What is the next thing for me? 19309 What place in London interested you most?" |

19309 | What was there in Cavendish Square to interest you? |
19309 | What,said Peters,"has Blank seen it?" |
19309 | Who is that? |
19309 | Why do you call it a vernier? |
19309 | Why is it so? |
19309 | Why not? |
19309 | Yes, how did you find it out? |
19309 | You Professor Newcomb? |
19309 | Zeke, where is the pen out of that case? |
19309 | Am I doing right or wrong? |
19309 | Am I going forward to success in life, or to failure and degradation? |
19309 | And how, the reader may ask, did it happen that these observations were not published by the astronomers who made them? |
19309 | As I walked and walked, the question in my mind was, what am I doing and whither am I going? |
19309 | But how, with what sort of instruments, and on what plan, must the photographs be taken? |
19309 | Can I not now go on with the study of the botanic system?" |
19309 | Can it be possible for anything to be made that would not have any shape? |
19309 | Could it be that our instrument, in a more favorable location, would fail to show what had been seen with one so much smaller? |
19309 | Could it be the same man? |
19309 | Did not a lawyer have to know Latin and have money to pursue his studies? |
19309 | Do the students ever call him"Benny"or"Tobie"? |
19309 | Do you not exercise them in writing compositions?" |
19309 | Does Cale Schurman''s big ram know that he has such big crooked horns on him? |
19309 | Does any world move otherwise than as it is attracted by other worlds? |
19309 | Does he know himself that he has such horns on him? |
19309 | Does he know it himself, I mean? |
19309 | Does not the Harvard professor of to- day always dine in a dress coat? |
19309 | Father, does form mean shape? |
19309 | Foremost among them was a knowledge of anatomy, and how could that be acquired except at a medical school? |
19309 | Has everything some shape? |
19309 | He asked me,"How would it do to have a purely administrative head?" |
19309 | His introducer watched the scene, and asked him,"Why did you not talk to that lady?" |
19309 | How combine all the astronomical observations, found scattered through hundreds of volumes, into a homogeneous whole? |
19309 | How could an incident so simple and an employment so humble be in itself an epoch in one''s life-- an entrance into a new world? |
19309 | I say"the celebrated,"but may it not be that this appellation can only suggest the vanity of all human greatness? |
19309 | If the making of one great telescope was a tedious job, requiring many years for its completion, how could two be made? |
19309 | If we had such trouble in a land line, how should we get a connection from London to the Gibraltar cable through lines in constant use? |

19309 | Is it possible that it could have been far enough away to be visible in 1873- 74? |
19309 | Is not the administration of the library a combination of liberality and correctness? |
19309 | Is such a librarian as John Langdon Sibley possible? |
19309 | No doubt the uppermost question in the mind of the reader will be: Why did you wait so long without having a clear understanding with the doctor? |
19309 | The Boston Athenæum had a very fine library; is it not possible that this may have a beginning of something of the same sort? |
19309 | The most difficult and delicate question arose in the beginning; shall the telescope be a reflector or a refractor? |
19309 | The question is, do these mutual attractions completely explain all the motions down to the last degree of refinement? |
19309 | The question that occurred to me was: Is it not possible that such observations were made by astronomers long before 1750? |
19309 | The question was how much ice would be required to produce the necessary cooling? |
19309 | The unspoken words on my lips were,"Why, Professor Cayley, what has happened to you?" |
19309 | Was it not possible that these astronomers had made more than they published? |
19309 | What could it all mean? |
19309 | What could it mean? |
19309 | What could it mean? |
19309 | What fault had you to find with it?" |
19309 | What is the value of such an attempt? |
19309 | What more could heart desire or brain hold? |
19309 | What should I want to strike a child like that for?" |
19309 | What''s yours?" |
19309 | When a little over four and a half, one evening, as I came home from school, you ran to me, and asked,"Father, is not 4 and 4 and 4 and 4, 16?" |
19309 | Who is he? |
19309 | Why go farther?" |
19309 | Why should they have lain unused and forgotten for two hundred years? |
19309 | did you not hear what he called us? |
10202 | ''What are their duties?'' 10202 ''Why do you ask me about our government?'' |
10202 | And what of the boys? 10202 But is there any limit to the different positions of human beings around you? |
10202 | I asked, as modestly as I could,''Have you any pupils in Latin and mathematics?'' 10202 I confess to a feeling of mortification when one of these girls asked me,''Did you ever read the translation of a Russian book?'' |
10202 | I had heard that she was not a women''s rights woman, and she said,''Who could have told you that? 10202 I stopped; and he asked,''Shall we lose our ice- crop this winter?'' |
10202 | I turned to the young American girl who sat next to me, and said,''Miss S., did you ever hear that expression except on the street?'' 10202 If for four hours a day you studied, year after year, the science of language, for instance, do you suppose you would not be a linguist? |
10202 | Indeed, if a cardinal should, at the Hall of Sopre Minerva, call out to Secchi,''Watchman, what of the night?'' 10202 Miss Mitchell,"asked one good missionary,"what is your favorite position in prayer?" |
10202 | The English are far beyond us in their highest scholarship, but why should they be ignorant of our scholars? 10202 There is no observatory in this land, nor in any land, probably, of which the question is not asked,''Are they doing anything? |
10202 | They plied me with questions:''Do you have women in your faculty? 10202 They talk as I expected Southern people of intelligence to talk; they lament the evil, and say,''It is upon us, what can we do? |
10202 | Through long halls, up winding staircases, occasionally stopped by some priest who touched his broad hat and asked''Parlate Italiano?'' 10202 What is that fine building on the hill?" |
10202 | What would we not give to see Julius Caesar and the soothsayer, just as they stood in Rome as Shakspere represents them? 10202 What would you think of it, if the director of any observatory were one of the President''s cabinet at Washington, in virtue of his position? |
10202 | What''s that? |
10202 | Will it really unroll to us at some future time? 10202 ''And,''I asked,''some Latin?'' 10202 ''Are you interested in questions of government?'' 10202 ''Do women vote in Russia?'' 10202 ''Is it a penny?'' 10202 ''Not married?'' 10202 ''Oh,''I said,''the passports are all right; where are they?'' 10202 ''On what money?'' 10202 ''What did she say?'' 10202 ''What shall I have the honor of showing you?'' 10202 ''What was I that I should love them, save for feeling of the pain?'' 10202 ''Where were you raised?'' 10202 ''Which way be ye coming?'' 10202 ( Was it, never sleeps?) 10202 *****When a student asks me,''What specialty shall I follow?'' |
10202 | --"Five dollars a day?" |
10202 | --''And why are you to be sold?'' |
10202 | --''I do n''t know,''he replied.--''Why did n''t you read the sign?'' |
10202 | After, perhaps, fifteen minutes, Dr. Whewell said,''Will you sit?'' |
10202 | All well enough,--but why call it a college? |
10202 | And if so, does not it condemn the ablest women to a single life? |
10202 | And in our deep ignorance of what is truth, shall we dread the search for it? |
10202 | As he stepped into the meridian- room, and saw the instruments, he said,''Collimators?'' |
10202 | At which Professor Mitchell drew herself up with the air of a tragic queen, saying,"And is my time worth no more than to boil eggs?" |
10202 | But is the region of truth limited? |
10202 | But one fine day a letter came to Mrs. Airy from Lady Herschel, and she asked,''Would not Miss Mitchell like to visit us?'' |
10202 | But why look back at all? |
10202 | But why not for men? |
10202 | Can the study of truth do harm? |
10202 | Could I be in error twelve days? |
10202 | Did he mean to say,''Better to believe a lie''? |
10202 | Did time go backward? |
10202 | Did you feast on''The Marble Faun''? |
10202 | Do men and women hold the same rank?'' |
10202 | Do we live up to them? |
10202 | Do you have Worcester''s Dictionary? |
10202 | Does not every true scientist seek only to know the truth? |
10202 | Had the nebula suddenly changed? |
10202 | He went on in the cars with us, and was reading Mallock''s''Is Life Worth Living?'' |
10202 | How did they know that those two passports belonged to us? |
10202 | How many American women are interested in questions concerning government? |
10202 | How many thousand women do you suppose are studying science in the whole State of New York? |
10202 | I asked.--''I ca n''t read,''was the reply.--''Oh, no; but why did n''t you ask some one?'' |
10202 | I do not wonder that the millionaire founds a new college-- why should he not? |
10202 | I had a good star near it in the field of my comet- seeker, but_ what_ star? |
10202 | I listened with great interest, and said,''I must go there in the morning; what is the name of it?'' |
10202 | I returned the questions:''Is there a girl''s college in Moscow?'' |
10202 | I said''Can you not say"I shall be happy to have you"?'' |
10202 | I sought her at once, and with fear and trembling asked,''Have you a bit of land behind your house in Denver where I could put up a small telescope?'' |
10202 | I would fain have gone off into some poetical quotation, such as''The breaking waves dashed high''or''The Pilgrim fathers, where are they?'' |
10202 | If you are going to find any more comets, can you not wait till they are announced by the proper authorities? |
10202 | Is it not infinite?... |
10202 | Is there any limit to the peculiarities of circumstances? |
10202 | Is there any one so forgetful of the sovereignty bestowed on her by God that she accepts a leader-- one who shall capture her mind? |
10202 | MY DEAR: Your father just gave me a great fright by"tapping at my window"( I believe Poe''s was a door, was n''t it?) |
10202 | Must a common cook always be a girl? |
10202 | Ought not Mr. Hawthorne to be the happiest man alive? |
10202 | She might model her busts in the clay of her own soil, but who should follow out in marble the delicate thought which the clay expressed? |
10202 | She pointed, not to the hotel, but to a house next to a church, and said,''That''s it-- don''t you see a place on the top? |
10202 | She said,''Oh,''in a tone which plainly said,''Is_ that_ all?'' |
10202 | Should I go to a music- school, therefore? |
10202 | Sometimes I am ready to say,''How can I forget you, when you have hung around me so closely for half an hour?'' |
10202 | Suppose every man should feel it is his duty to do his own mechanical work of_ all_ kinds, would society be benefited? |
10202 | Suppose for an instant that her commerce is cut off, will they starve? |
10202 | The bright part of this object was clearly the old nebula-- but what was the appendage? |
10202 | The eldest sister asked:''Do women vote in America?'' |
10202 | Then I asked,''If there is no future state, is life worth living?'' |
10202 | Was I like Alice in Wonderland? |
10202 | Was it a comet, or was it merely a very fine night? |
10202 | Was it really the same old earth, and not another planet? |
10202 | What could be done? |
10202 | What more can you ask to be? |
10202 | What would be beyond seeing them in life? |
10202 | When she gave me a book she said,''May I write your whole name? |
10202 | While the curtain was down, I heard a voice behind me say to the gentleman who was with us,''Is the lady on your left with you?'' |
10202 | Who objects? |
10202 | Who settles the way? |
10202 | Why can not a man act himself, be himself, and think for himself? |
10202 | Why do n''t we hear from them? |
10202 | Why turn your eyes to your shadow, when, by looking upward, you see your rainbow in the same direction? |
10202 | Why? |
10202 | Would you, if you lived in Lynn, want to fall into such a mass of idolaters? |
10202 | You and I can never occult, for have we not always helped one another to shine? |
10202 | and Have I seen_ her_? |
10202 | and I asked,''Is it?'' |
10202 | and may I say"from your friend"?'' |
10202 | and must a boy not cook unless on the top of the ladder, with the pay of the president of Harvard College? |
10202 | said he;''am I talking to a capitalist? |
10202 | would the work be well done? |
28613 | Does Mr. Newton eat, drink, sleep, like other men? |
28613 | How on earth do you know? |
28613 | Understand the structure of a soap- bubble? |
28613 | What have plane figures to do with the celestial orbits? |
28613 | ***** Who, then, was the man of first magnitude filling up the gap in scientific history between the death of Galileo and the maturity of Newton? |
28613 | A month, should you guess? |
28613 | And how was the_ Principia_ received? |
28613 | And what about science? |
28613 | And what did his versatile genius accomplish during his fifty- four years of life? |
28613 | And what does it see? |
28613 | And what is the outcome of it all? |
28613 | Are all the bodies in space of this gigantic size? |
28613 | Are perhaps the two smaller stars consumed like spots on the sun? |
28613 | Are there any now who practically repeat their error, and resist new truth? |
28613 | Are there any such gigantic rotating masses of gas in the heaven now? |
28613 | Are we then to regard the system as absurd and wholly false? |
28613 | But against the power of Rome what could they do? |
28613 | But all this was working in the dark-- it was only the first step-- this empirical discovery of facts; the facts were so, but how came they so? |
28613 | But did it satisfy the law of speed? |
28613 | But was the change sudden? |
28613 | But what about the shape of the orbit-- Was it after all possible that Aristotle, and every philosopher since Aristotle, had been wrong? |
28613 | But what is it pulling back? |
28613 | But, it may be asked, if Kepler''s third law only gives us the mass of a_ central_ body, how is the mass of a_ satellite_ to be known? |
28613 | But, wait a bit; is it discovered? |
28613 | Can they have been once a single planet broken up? |
28613 | Consider for a moment the denudation import of the tides: how does the existence of tidal rise and fall affect the geological problem? |
28613 | Could he not hit on the device and make an instrument capable of bringing the heavenly bodies nearer? |
28613 | Could it be an outer planet? |
28613 | Could it be expressed no more simply? |
28613 | Could it be that the light particles after passing through the prism travelled in variously curved lines, as spinning racquet balls do? |
28613 | Could it be that white light was compound, was a mixture of several constituents, and that its different constituents were differently bent? |
28613 | Could the observation be wrong by this small amount? |
28613 | Could the rate of description of areas be uniform with it? |
28613 | Could this planet be inside the orbit of Uranus? |
28613 | Did it seem to him as if he had seen far and deep into the truths of this great and infinite universe? |
28613 | Does not the secular variation in excentricity of the earth''s orbit, combined with the precession of the equinoxes, afford a key? |
28613 | Does the elevation of the ocean cause the tidal flow, or does the tidal flow cause the elevation? |
28613 | Genius patience? |
28613 | Have they not succeeded? |
28613 | Have they suddenly vanished and fled? |
28613 | Have we any reason for supposing that the stars we see are all there are? |
28613 | He next examined the various hypotheses that had been suggested to account for them:--Was it a failure in the law of gravitation? |
28613 | How far did it fall? |
28613 | How far is the moon away? |
28613 | How long would it be before you encountered another object? |
28613 | If the earth revolved round the sun, how came it that the fixed stars showed no parallax? |
28613 | In June the earth is 184 million miles away from where it was in December: how can we see precisely the same fixed stars? |
28613 | In other words, have we any reason for supposing all celestial objects to be sufficiently luminous to be visible? |
28613 | Is it 16/3600? |
28613 | Is it not probable that this is_ why_ the moon always now turns the same face towards us? |
28613 | Is it over yet? |
28613 | Is it possible that comets are large meteors which dip into the solar atmosphere, and are thus rendered conspicuously luminous? |
28613 | Is there any connection between their orbital distances, or between their orbits and the times of describing them? |
28613 | Is there any connection or common ancestry possible, to account for this strange family likeness? |
28613 | Is there really nothing in space but the nebulæ, the suns, their planets, and their satellites? |
28613 | Is this force of gravity sufficient for the purpose? |
28613 | It appeared to his contemporaries as if he had almost exhausted the possibility of discovery; but did it so appear to Newton? |
28613 | Kepler had discovered how they moved, but why did they so move, what urged them? |
28613 | Light travels from the stars to our eyes: does it come instantaneously? |
28613 | May there not be an infinitude of small bodies as well? |
28613 | Not itself, surely? |
28613 | Now what can be said of so strange a metamorphosis? |
28613 | Now when we have a spinning body, say a top, overloaded on one side so that gravity acts on it unsymmetrically, what happens? |
28613 | Now, what is the moral to be drawn from such uniformity of behaviour among unconnected bodies? |
28613 | Or has Saturn devoured his own children? |
28613 | Or was it due to a collision with some comet? |
28613 | So far we have dealt mainly with the earth and its moon; but is the existence of tides limited to these bodies? |
28613 | Surely a mistake of calculation? |
28613 | That is what it ought to be: but is it? |
28613 | The doctrine is very familiar to us now, we have heard it, I suppose, since we were four years old, but can you realize it? |
28613 | The main interest of these bodies to us lies in the question, What is their history? |
28613 | The question, therefore,"At what rate does our messenger travel?" |
28613 | The sun is one of the stars: then is it at rest? |
28613 | They rotate with the motion they possess when thrown or shrunk off; but will they remain rings? |
28613 | They say,"If the cart pulls against the horse with precisely the same force as the horse pulls the cart, why should the cart move?" |
28613 | This was evidently a puzzling fact: what on earth can our year have to do with the motion of a moon of Jupiter''s? |
28613 | This was natural enough, but was it moving the right way? |
28613 | Up in Lincolnshire, in the seventeenth century, who was there for him to consult? |
28613 | Very well, then, put this problem:--A vast mass of rotating gas is left to itself to cool for ages and to condense as it cools: how will it behave? |
28613 | Was it always decreasing? |
28613 | Was it due to some unseen but large satellite? |
28613 | Was it due to the presence of a resisting medium? |
28613 | Was it likely that a young and unknown man should have successfully solved so extremely difficult a problem? |
28613 | Was it possible the tables were wrong? |
28613 | Was this impostor going to blacken its face too? |
28613 | We do possess the sense of sight; but is it to be supposed that we possess every sense that can be possessed by finite beings? |
28613 | We have now to ask, Are these spaces really empty? |
28613 | Were his opponents convinced? |
28613 | What about the second? |
28613 | What are comets? |
28613 | What can be better than"heat,""light,""sound"? |
28613 | What can have caused the slowing down? |
28613 | What could have caused it? |
28613 | What happens to these rings? |
28613 | What is the meaning of the equable description of areas? |
28613 | What made the planets move in this particular way? |
28613 | What was the physical cause of this acceleration according to the theory of gravitation? |
28613 | Where is the man to spend his life in evolving the beginnings of law and order from the midst of all this chaos? |
28613 | Wherein, then, lies the difference? |
28613 | Why are you not here? |
28613 | Why did not others make any of these observations? |
28613 | Why did the image thus spread out? |
28613 | Why is this? |
28613 | Why may not some of the stars be dark too? |
28613 | Why not exactly? |
28613 | Why on earth not? |
28613 | Why should it not be the gravitation of the sun that is the central force acting on all the planets? |
28613 | Why should it not reach as high as the moon? |
28613 | Why should it only pull stones and apples? |
28613 | Will an inverse square law of force keep a body moving in an elliptic orbit about the sun in one focus? |
28613 | Will it hold for elliptic orbits? |
28613 | Will they ultimately approach and fall into the sun, or will they recede further and further from him, into the cold of space? |
28613 | Yes, certainly the cart is pulling at the horse; if the cart offered no resistance what would be the good of the horse? |
28613 | [ 17] How can one decide whether such a force is able to pull the moon the actual amount required? |
28613 | and if so, how far back was it so excentric that at perihelion the earth passed quite near the sun? |
28613 | and where were the doctrines they had maintained as irrefragable? |
28613 | or are they rather an abortive attempt at a planet never yet formed into one? |
28613 | or does it loiter by the way? |
28613 | that circular motion was not the perfect and natural motion, but that planets might move in some other closed curve? |
28613 | who cling to any old anchorage of dogma, and refuse to rise with the tide of advancing knowledge? |
6574 | And is this all? |
6574 | Could I, a noble, print This trafficking with Urania in a book? 6574 His book has come From Nuremberg at last; but who would dare To let him see it now?" |
6574 | Is it you? |
6574 | Print it? |
6574 | To what end? 6574 What does it mean? |
6574 | What is the thought, Jeppe? |
6574 | What''s this? 6574 Where?" |
6574 | )_ What think I? |
6574 | -- They laughed,"What do you mean?" |
6574 | --"Afraid of what, Susannah?" |
6574 | --"He has asked a thousand times if it has come; Could we tear out those pages?" |
6574 | --"Kepler, have you not heard Of those who, fifteen hundred years ago, Had eyes and would not see? |
6574 | --"What shall be done, then?" |
6574 | --"You mean The man at Padua, Galileo?" |
6574 | A grain of dust among those glittering legions-- Am I, I only, touched with joy and tears? |
6574 | And would he not bequeath them to his heirs, The children of Christine, an unfree woman? |
6574 | Are you happy now to know Your book is printed, and the new world born?" |
6574 | Can music rise By chance from chaos, as they said that star In Serpentarius rose? |
6574 | Can some deep sleep bereave them of our story As darkness hides all colours from the blind? |
6574 | Can this uncharted boundless realm of ours Drone thro''the sky, with leagues of struggling sea, Forests, and hills, and towns, and palace- towers?" |
6574 | Could I guess At unseen glories, in this deeper night, Make new discoveries of profounder realms, Within the soul? |
6574 | Could I, who put away all earthly love, Deny the Cross to which I nailed this flesh? |
6574 | Could he then be sure That this great sun did not with all its worlds Move round a deeper centre? |
6574 | Could new stars be born? |
6574 | Could they not hear those whispers of the soul? |
6574 | Could this be absolute? |
6574 | Did I forget the subtler truth of Rome And, in my pride, obscure the world''s one light? |
6574 | Did I subordinate to this moving earth Our swiftlier- moving God? |
6574 | Did he mean Simplicio, in his dialogues, for the Pope? |
6574 | Did he not spend Gold that a fool could spend as quickly as he? |
6574 | Did it also move Around the sun? |
6574 | Did they listen? |
6574 | Did this earth Move? |
6574 | Do we think this world So greatly bettered, that the ancient cry,"_ Despised, rejected_,"hails our God no more? |
6574 | Do you recall Those verses, Elsa? |
6574 | Do you remember Old Barley-- how he tried to teach us drawing? |
6574 | Do you remember? |
6574 | Do you wonder? |
6574 | Do you_ mean_ more?" |
6574 | Fixed in their sphere, How else explain that vast unchanging wheel? |
6574 | Fools in their hearts have said,"Whence comes this Power, Why throw the riddle back this one stage more?" |
6574 | For who, if one lost star could lead the kings To God''s own Son, would shrink from following these To His eternal throne? |
6574 | Had he heard Some hint of scandal that he could not breathe To you, because he honoured you too well? |
6574 | Had our own Some distant comrade, lost among the stars? |
6574 | Have not all ages seen A like illusion baffling half mankind In life, thought, art? |
6574 | Have they not brought it yet? |
6574 | Have they not brought it? |
6574 | Have you no song, then, of that nobler war? |
6574 | Have you not heard The very heavens opening? |
6574 | Have you not heard, in some great symphony, Those golden mathematics making clear The victory of the soul? |
6574 | He stood Tapping his music- rest, lost in his own thoughts And( did I hear or dream them?) |
6574 | He wondered, will she shrink from me in fear Or loathing? |
6574 | How could he choose between them? |
6574 | How could he help Despising them a little? |
6574 | How could he talk to children, but in words That children understand? |
6574 | How should men find it? |
6574 | How should the Church escape, then? |
6574 | I know their orbits; but what path have I? |
6574 | I shall come back with knowledge and with power, And you-- will wait for me?" |
6574 | II(_ Scheiner writes to Castelli, after the Trial._) What think you of your Galileo now, Your hero that like Ajax should defy The lightning? |
6574 | Into whose hands can I entrust it all? |
6574 | Is he mad? |
6574 | Is it a dream, These crowding midgets, dense as clustering bees In some great bee- skep? |
6574 | Is there a world whose light is not as my light, A midget world of light- imprisoned men? |
6574 | May not their flesh have sealed that fount of glory, That pure ninth sense which told us of mankind? |
6574 | Men? |
6574 | Must he die To affirm a discord that himself denied? |
6574 | Must such things always be When truth is born? |
6574 | O, what shall now stand sure?" |
6574 | Of which things, we see no more Than images only, flashed through nerves and brain To our small sensories? |
6574 | Shall I try To throw it back to you?" |
6574 | Shall we side With Heraclitus or Democritus? |
6574 | She cooed,''Is Mr. Pepys within?'' |
6574 | Strange, is it not, How nearly Scheiner-- even amidst his hate-- Quoted the Prophets? |
6574 | Tell me now How shall I mix it? |
6574 | The silence? |
6574 | Then said the king,"If earth so lightly move, What of my realm? |
6574 | Thus it ran:''Master, have you forgotten Jeppe, your dwarf, Who used to lie beside the big log- fire And feed from your own hand? |
6574 | Was I wrong? |
6574 | Was earth a loadstone Holding them to their paths by that dark force Whose mystery men have cloaked beneath a name? |
6574 | Was the eye contrived by blindly moving atoms, Or the still- listening ear fulfilled with music By forces without knowledge of sweet sounds? |
6574 | Was the sun Their sovran lord then, as Pythagoras held? |
6574 | Was the sun the centre of our scheme? |
6574 | Was there an unknown planet, far beyond, Sailing through unimaginable deeps And drawing it from its path? |
6574 | Was this great earth, so''stablished, so secure, A planet also? |
6574 | Was this my infidelity, was this Less full of beauty, less divine in truth, Than their dull chaos? |
6574 | Were there not great estates bestowed upon him In wisdom''s name, that from the dawn of time Had been the natural right of Junkerdom? |
6574 | Were they men or children? |
6574 | What am I? |
6574 | What became Of your Copernicus then? |
6574 | What delays my book? |
6574 | What does it mean? |
6574 | What has decided me? |
6574 | What has delayed them? |
6574 | What is it moves this body? |
6574 | What of that? |
6574 | What shaft had pierced him? |
6574 | What think you of your Galileo now? |
6574 | What will they christen it? |
6574 | What''s that? |
6574 | What''s this?" |
6574 | When shall we reap the fruits of all this toil? |
6574 | Whence arises all This order, this unbroken chain of law, This human will, this death- defying love? |
6574 | Where was the gambler that would stake so much,-- Time, patience, treasure, on a single throw? |
6574 | Whither? |
6574 | Who can lead Two lives at once? |
6574 | Who that once has seen How truth leads on to truth, shall ever dare To set a bound to knowledge? |
6574 | Whose are the might and music that enfold me? |
6574 | Whose faith,-- His friends'', his Protestant followers'', or his own? |
6574 | Whose is the law that guides me thro''the Deep? |
6574 | Why mar the tune, why dislocate a world, For one slight clash of seeming fact with faith?'' |
6574 | Why not acquiesce? |
6574 | Will not some one go And tell them that my strength is running out? |
6574 | Will she even come at all? |
6574 | Will your English guest Turn up his nose at dandelion leaves As crisp and young as these? |
6574 | Would his Excellency Like sugared rose- leaves better?" |
6574 | Would not the fruit fall earthward, though it grew High o''er the hills as yonder brightening cloud? |
6574 | Would not the selfsame power that plucked the fruit Draw the white moon, then, sailing in the blue? |
6574 | You can not see them? |
6574 | You may call it Weakness, and yet could any man do more, Alone, against a world, with such a trust To guard for future ages? |
6574 | You''ll leave me here An hour or so?" |
6574 | said the king,"Is earth a bird or bee? |
6574 | said the king,"O, where? |
31598 | A cat is n''t exactly big game for thieves, is it? 31598 A chant should rhyme, should n''t it?" |
31598 | Afraid a brand- new mystery might end without you getting a piece of it? |
31598 | An Arab country? |
31598 | And how do you know? |
31598 | And you made copies of concrete? 31598 Any relation to Ali, I wonder?" |
31598 | Are they dry yet? |
31598 | Are we at Giza already? |
31598 | Are you Ali Moustafa? |
31598 | Are you Fuad Moustafa? |
31598 | Are you all right? |
31598 | Are you lonely, little cat? |
31598 | Are you the dragoman Dr. Farid sent? |
31598 | But how can that be? |
31598 | But how? 31598 But is the overseas airmail so crowded you would n''t trust a parcel to the regular mail system?" |
31598 | But why a cat? 31598 But why do you want it?" |
31598 | But why does n''t he drop the sail and try to lose headway? |
31598 | But why would a thief want the cat? |
31598 | But why would anyone want the cat? |
31598 | Can you ask them what''s up? |
31598 | Can you take us to Abd El Aziz Street? |
31598 | Cat catch mouse last night? |
31598 | Christmas mail is to and from Christians, is n''t it? 31598 Could Hassan''s car have broken down?" |
31598 | Could n''t leave our pal, could we? 31598 Could there be something inside the cat? |
31598 | Did n''t you ever hear of Project Ozma? |
31598 | Do jackals always bark at night? |
31598 | Do they always bark at nothing? |
31598 | Do you know what is in the cat? |
31598 | Do you know why the cat is important? |
31598 | Do you really think we''re in any danger? |
31598 | Do you suppose Bartouki was telling the truth? |
31598 | Does it matter, if it was some kind of intelligence? |
31598 | Excited? 31598 Excited?" |
31598 | Footsball? 31598 Get it, or else?" |
31598 | Ghouls, ghosties, or long- legged beasties? |
31598 | Going to take her a bouquet of Egyptian poison ivy? |
31598 | Hassan, what do you think is in here? |
31598 | Hassan, when do you think Youssef will come back? |
31598 | He say you get this? |
31598 | How about Moustafa? |
31598 | How about scrambled eggs for New Year''s Eve dinner? |
31598 | How did you know the cat in the pyramid was n''t the cat we brought from America? |
31598 | How did you know the cat in the pyramid was not the right one? |
31598 | How do you know Steve? |
31598 | How do you know it is n''t the right one? |
31598 | How do you like our baby? |
31598 | How far, Hassan? |
31598 | How is it going? |
31598 | How will we work it? |
31598 | How you say? 31598 How''s this? |
31598 | How? |
31598 | I do n''t suppose I can go, too? |
31598 | I do n''t suppose you could promise to leave Rick and Scotty at home? |
31598 | In the east? |
31598 | Indeed? 31598 Is Mr. Moustafa here?" |
31598 | Is he guilty of anything? |
31598 | Is it a saying of some kind? |
31598 | Is it cold out today? |
31598 | Is n''t it pretty careless, leaving the cat at the project? |
31598 | It kind of throws a monkey wrench into our plan, does n''t it? |
31598 | It was obvious, was it not? 31598 It would not be an imposition?" |
31598 | Listen, who sends mail at Christmas time? |
31598 | Look, what went on in that store, anyway? 31598 May I ask a personal question?" |
31598 | Meanwhile, what do we know about anything? 31598 Mr. Bartouki? |
31598 | No co- operation? 31598 Not so tired?" |
31598 | Not suspicious of the others? |
31598 | Now you speak Arabic? 31598 Now, where is the cat?" |
31598 | Now,Scotty asked,"what do we do with the children?" |
31598 | Otherwise, why go to all the trouble of trying to get it in the bazaar, then taking the risk of searching our room? |
31598 | Rick, can you come to the library in five minutes? 31598 Sandstone?" |
31598 | Second question: ca n''t you just pick up Youssef on a kidnapping charge? |
31598 | See anything? |
31598 | Sentimental value? |
31598 | Shall we eat? |
31598 | Shall we say that I had a cat expert examine it? 31598 So they wo n''t get us in a public place, huh? |
31598 | That''s more evidence that it was moving contrary to normal direction? |
31598 | The people of Cairo would n''t want reproductions, would they? |
31598 | The wizard of Ozma? |
31598 | Then how''s this? |
31598 | There are plenty of people who wait until the last few days before Christmas, but where are they? 31598 They did n''t get it?" |
31598 | They taught you English? |
31598 | Was it valuable? |
31598 | We will exchange stories over coffee, eh? 31598 What I want to know is, did the hall porter just happen to step out at the right moment for the thief? |
31598 | What about Felix? |
31598 | What are you driving at? |
31598 | What data are buried in your subconscious that make you distrust Bartouki? |
31598 | What do you mean? |
31598 | What do you want? |
31598 | What does that mean? |
31598 | What else are they here for? |
31598 | What else is made for tourists? |
31598 | What is it? |
31598 | What is that? |
31598 | What is the space object? |
31598 | What kind of problem is it? |
31598 | What pyramids are those, Hassan? |
31598 | What we do now? |
31598 | What will you do with it now? |
31598 | What''ll we do? |
31598 | What''s Bartouki a doctor of? |
31598 | What''s the problem everyone has with kittens? 31598 What''s up?" |
31598 | What''s_ la samah Allah_? |
31598 | What? 31598 What?" |
31598 | When do we start? |
31598 | Where did you get it? |
31598 | Where you like to go? |
31598 | Where''s the cat? |
31598 | Where? |
31598 | Who does not? |
31598 | Who sends messages from space? |
31598 | Who was the man who pretended to be your brother Ali? |
31598 | Why did n''t he use someone disguised as a tourist? |
31598 | Why did n''t you give him the cat, anyway? |
31598 | Why do you carry a pistol? |
31598 | Why does n''t he correct his course? |
31598 | Why is the cat so important? |
31598 | Why not go over to see the pyramids? 31598 Why not? |
31598 | Why the soldiers? |
31598 | Why they stop? 31598 With Hassan?" |
31598 | Wonder if they''d like to have you, too? |
31598 | Would it be all right for us to go? |
31598 | Would n''t that throw them for a loop? 31598 Would you like company?" |
31598 | You are probably wondering who I am, and how I appeared so opportunely, eh? 31598 You ever play football?" |
31598 | You know El Mouski? |
31598 | You let me see, please? |
31598 | You want to actually hear this thing? |
31598 | You will excuse me? 31598 You wish to see me?" |
31598 | _ Monsieur l''Inspecteur? 31598 A guide who could n''t read? 31598 A pal of our little cat? |
31598 | A technician asked,"Sir, do these peaks occur no matter how the antenna is pointing?" |
31598 | Ah, but this is evening in Cairo, is it not?" |
31598 | And how about Bartouki?" |
31598 | And these are your young friends?" |
31598 | And where is the original?" |
31598 | And where was the real Ali Moustafa? |
31598 | And where were the brothers Moustafa? |
31598 | And who were the people that wanted it? |
31598 | And you? |
31598 | Any bright ideas, ol''chum?" |
31598 | Are n''t you enjoying the suspense?" |
31598 | Are you familiar with radio astronomy?" |
31598 | Are your passports and health cards up to date?" |
31598 | As Hassan drove off, at the usual high velocity, Rick asked,"Do you know Fuad Moustafa?" |
31598 | Barby asked wistfully,"Could n''t I meet some real Egyptians, too?" |
31598 | Buffaloed?" |
31598 | But first, how are your bank balances? |
31598 | But for whom?" |
31598 | But how could he? |
31598 | But if not in the city, where? |
31598 | But suppose you''re right, and it is n''t lead? |
31598 | But what? |
31598 | But what?" |
31598 | But why is the cat so important?" |
31598 | But, Hassan, if you ca n''t read or write, how did you learn such good English?" |
31598 | Can I order breakfast first?" |
31598 | Can you describe the men who attacked you at the Egyptian Museum?" |
31598 | Can you make the duplicates?" |
31598 | Can you tell me what color dress my sister Barbara wore at your reception, and the color of her hair and eyes?" |
31598 | Come, shall we go to the outside? |
31598 | Could n''t we just get a map instead?" |
31598 | Could n''t you, Rick?" |
31598 | Could they trust this man? |
31598 | Did he ask us who jumped us in the pyramid, or why? |
31598 | Did he explain why he carries a Luger? |
31598 | Did you see my friend last night?" |
31598 | Do n''t you?" |
31598 | Do we walk, or take the elevator? |
31598 | Do you follow me?" |
31598 | Do you have any plans?" |
31598 | Do you know him?" |
31598 | Do you want the pieces?" |
31598 | Dr. Kerama called,"Hakim, can you help with these tracings, please?" |
31598 | Fat or thin?" |
31598 | Finally, he found a dragoman who knew nothing of their whereabouts, but added,"Why you not wait in room? |
31598 | For a moment Rick hesitated, then asked,"Is there another Ali Moustafa in the bazaar?" |
31598 | For perhaps the hundredth time he asked,"Why is the cat valuable? |
31598 | Going to tell Winston and the others about this morning?" |
31598 | Got the kitty?" |
31598 | Got the map?" |
31598 | Guess what? |
31598 | Had Scotty met Kemel Moustafa at seven? |
31598 | He asked,"Why all the honking, Hassan?" |
31598 | He could have it put in the hotel vault, but what assurance had he that it would be safe there? |
31598 | He knew he would be searched; why else would Youssef come? |
31598 | He wondered as Hassan drove them to the hotel below the pyramids: had the business in the pyramid been staged so Kemel could come to the rescue? |
31598 | How about going to the Egyptian Museum this morning?" |
31598 | How about it?" |
31598 | How about you?" |
31598 | How can you eliminate all of it?" |
31598 | How could he establish Bartouki''s identity for certain? |
31598 | How did this concern Scotty and him? |
31598 | How do you find the right one?" |
31598 | How full can life get?" |
31598 | How had he known? |
31598 | I believe you gave one to a man who showed up here?" |
31598 | I think you have probably had enough of Khufu''s tomb by this time, eh?" |
31598 | If Scotty had the cat, had he delivered it? |
31598 | If part of the circuit is n''t causing the trouble, what is?" |
31598 | Instead, he asked Hassan,"Could there be another Ali Moustafa in El Mouski?" |
31598 | Is it the one under your arm perhaps?" |
31598 | Is n''t that about it?" |
31598 | It''s a problem that has us... what''s the American expression? |
31598 | Just came along for the ride, I suppose?" |
31598 | May I speak to Kemel?" |
31598 | Maybe around back?" |
31598 | Notice that no one saw the ruckus? |
31598 | Now co- operate, will you?" |
31598 | Now we start?" |
31598 | Now, Mr. Brant, where is the cat?" |
31598 | Now, ask yourself-- who can get past customs with no difficulty? |
31598 | Now, can you tell me anything about a Mr. Fuad Moustafa? |
31598 | Now, if you knew there was evidence against you, and you were completely ruthless, what would you do?" |
31598 | Now, since you created this situation, how are you going to get out of it? |
31598 | Now, what had led Barby to offer Rick''s services as a messenger? |
31598 | Only how do we do it?" |
31598 | Only where was big, fat, jolly Ali Moustafa? |
31598 | Only, now what do we do with the cat?" |
31598 | Or could I be wrong about the description?" |
31598 | Or did I create it, through my careless eagerness? |
31598 | Or is he in the act somehow?" |
31598 | Rick asked Winston,"Could it really be coming from a single source in outer space?" |
31598 | Rick asked, still chuckling,"Hassan, do camels always complain like that?" |
31598 | Rick protested,"But why should he trust his finances to a stranger? |
31598 | Rick started to get out, then he asked curiously,"How do you know, Hassan? |
31598 | Right? |
31598 | Right?" |
31598 | Scotty asked Hassan, with mock seriousness,"You know Sahara Wells?" |
31598 | Scotty asked bluntly,"Why is the cat so important?" |
31598 | Scotty asked incredulously,"Did n''t you think carrying a cat wrapped in paper was pretty strange?" |
31598 | Scotty asked,"Why do they want to make changes? |
31598 | Scotty interrupted,"Can you speak in English please?" |
31598 | Scotty said,"I''m sure you have lots of theories, but honestly-- what do you really think?" |
31598 | Should we go into the crypt or stay out here?" |
31598 | So what will they think?" |
31598 | So why would the airmail to Egypt be jammed?" |
31598 | So, as the year closes, where are we? |
31598 | Someone leave?" |
31598 | Suppose I suggest one with a car?" |
31598 | Suppose they''ll try the project?" |
31598 | Suppose we pick up from there?" |
31598 | That would n''t be in the city, because who would pay any attention to a car parked and locked at the curb? |
31598 | The attraction for tourists are things that are clearly Egyptian in origin, no? |
31598 | The big question was, of course, what would happen to them? |
31598 | The boy said quickly,"Yes, sir?" |
31598 | The cat was no good to him, was it? |
31598 | The guide parked directly in front of the museum and asked,"I go with you?" |
31598 | The question was who had taken him? |
31598 | They did not harm you?" |
31598 | This is acceptable?" |
31598 | This is correct?" |
31598 | This was the case?" |
31598 | Until then, why not take it easy?" |
31598 | Want to go in?" |
31598 | Was not Bartouki''s word enough?" |
31598 | Was that you?" |
31598 | What are footsball?" |
31598 | What are you getting at?" |
31598 | What basis did he have for mistrusting the charming little Egyptian merchant? |
31598 | What could be valuable enough to cause all these wild goings- on?" |
31598 | What did that leave? |
31598 | What do we do next?" |
31598 | What do we do with the Egyptian cat?" |
31598 | What does kitty have that people want?" |
31598 | What else could he recall of Youssef''s talk? |
31598 | What else would travel across normal star directions giving out signals?" |
31598 | What had Youssef said? |
31598 | What kind of changes?" |
31598 | What number street he live?" |
31598 | What then?" |
31598 | What was going on? |
31598 | What was he to do with it? |
31598 | What was it? |
31598 | What''s the next step?" |
31598 | Where is it?" |
31598 | Where is the cat?" |
31598 | Where is the real Ali Moustafa?" |
31598 | Where shall we begin? |
31598 | Where was the thief taking him? |
31598 | Which dynasty invented plastics? |
31598 | Who was he? |
31598 | Who were the men, and why did they want the cat?" |
31598 | Who would you rather have on your trail, Moustafa or Youssef?" |
31598 | Who''s coming?" |
31598 | Why did n''t you put Kemel in jail, too? |
31598 | Why did so many people want it? |
31598 | Why not a... a camel?" |
31598 | Why not be reasonable?" |
31598 | Why should I be excited? |
31598 | Why use a plastic cat as a container to smuggle things into Egypt? |
31598 | Why was the Egyptian cat important? |
31598 | Why would anyone want it enough to stage that scene at El Mouski and then ransack our room?" |
31598 | Why would anyone want the cat?" |
31598 | Why, indeed? |
31598 | Why? |
31598 | Why?" |
31598 | Will you give it to me?" |
31598 | Winston asked,"Dr. Kerama, do you want to explain what we have decided?" |
31598 | Winston going to Cairo? |
31598 | Winston?" |
31598 | With Moustafa?" |
31598 | Would it be better if he disposed of the cat? |
31598 | Would n''t you say so?" |
31598 | You are quite sure it will be no trouble?" |
31598 | You come back, maybe?" |
31598 | You did n''t lose your wallets or anything valuable?" |
31598 | You know that he has been very ill? |
31598 | You know, when our people want to say time go by... how you say? |
31598 | You see?" |
31598 | You want to go?" |
31598 | You want to go?" |
31598 | You?" |
31598 | [ Illustration:_ A snub- nosed revolver was pointed at Rick''s midriff_]"I know it''s late,"the man said pleasantly,"but may I come in?" |
