21094	I may go, too?
21094	I wish we knew where Loto was; have n''t they mentioned him-- or any of us?
21094	I wish-- may I keep it?
21094	I wonder-- isn''t this balance of supply and demand very difficult to maintain?
21094	I''m hungry,suggested the Very Young Man,"how about you?"
21094	Is he asleep?

21094	It''s very bad-- there-- don''t you think?
21094	Just where do you figure this Oroid universe is located in the ring?
21094	Like our word horse- power?
21094	Moving the ring? 21094 Much that will interest you, shall we say from a socialistic standpoint?
21094	My God, Frank, ca n''t you understand? 21094 My name''s Jack; is yours Aura?"
21094	My sister also?
21094	My watch is still going-- is it ticking out the old time or the new time down here?
21094	No reason why we should be, at that, is there? 21094 No, it was what he saw in the microscope, was n''t it?"
21094	Not a strikingly original or unfamiliar situation, was it?
21094	Not much like either night or day, is it?
21094	Not so skeptical now, eh, George?
21094	Now what?
21094	Now, if it seems probable that there is no limit to the immensity of space, why should we make its smallness finite? 21094 Now, what do you think of that?"
21094	Oh, golly, what''s this?
21094	Oh, yes-- of course; but----"What?
21094	Oh,_ mamita_ dear, will he surely come, this Santa Claus? 21094 On yourself?"
21094	Oteo, you have sent him?
21094	Prettier than the girls of your world? 21094 Say how about that?"
21094	Say, how deep does it get before it stops?
21094	See it there?
21094	Shall I see you again, I wonder?
21094	Shall we go down and see it?

21094	Suppose a woman marries and her land is far away from her husband''s? 21094 Suppose he goes into debt?"
21094	Suppose we get into the ring-- how long would we be gone, do you suppose?
21094	Suppose we got started in the wrong direction?
21094	Suppose you do n''t like the new land as well?
21094	Suppose you should die, or be killed, would the contraction cease?
21094	That is so pretty-- what is that?
21094	That sky-- is that the sky of your world?
21094	That would cause discontent, would n''t it?
21094	That''s a curious idea, is n''t it?
21094	Then it is only good for one day?
21094	Then what shall we do?
21094	Then you really have been able to make an animal infinitely small?
21094	Then you really think that there is a girl now inside the gold of that ring?
21094	They do work?
21094	They know us-- good God, do n''t you see?
21094	To- morrow they are going to send a messenger from Orlog to demand the drugs?
21094	Was it all as you expected?
21094	Was it the same sky you saw overhead when you were in the forest?
21094	We could get lost in size just as easily as in space, could n''t we?
21094	We got back, sir, did n''t we?
21094	We''d never be able to get anywhere, would we?
21094	We''re all ready, are n''t we?
21094	Well, and who are you, little man?
21094	Well, had n''t you better leave them with us?
21094	Well, it ca n''t hurt anything to try it, can it?
21094	Well, little boy,he said laughing,"how do you like this adventure?"
21094	Well, little brother, we got you back, did n''t we?
21094	Well, there''s no way of telling, is there?
21094	Well, why not let them run it that way, if they want to?
21094	What about the public work to be done?
21094	What about women? 21094 What are they doing now, Aura?"
21094	What are they?
21094	What can we take with us, do you think?
21094	What caused the explosion?
21094	What did that?
21094	What did they look like going?
21094	What did you do about the drugs?
21094	What did you see?
21094	What do they come up here for, anyway?
21094	What do we do first?
21094	What do you mean-- they?
21094	What do you take me for?
21094	What do you think, Will? 21094 What does it hold in store for us?"
21094	What does the king say?
21094	What happened to you? 21094 What happens to this house when you and Lylda die, if Loto can not have it?"
21094	What is he after?
21094	What is it, Aura?
21094	What is it, Oteo?
21094	What is the exact difference in time?
21094	What is the unit?
21094	What makes you think we wo n''t have another scrap getting out?
21094	What next?
21094	What shall we do?
21094	What shall we try, a lizard?
21094	What time is it now?
21094	What time is it?
21094	What time is it?
21094	What was that?
21094	What will this cost, do you figure?
21094	What''ll we do?
21094	What''ll we kill it with? 21094 What''s next?"
21094	What''s that over there?
21094	What''s that?
21094	What''s the idea?
21094	What''s this?
21094	What''s your name?
21094	What-- is-- that?
21094	What_ do_ you think of us?
21094	When I saw the ring at the Biological Society the other day, I happened to think, suppose Rogers was to come out on the underneath side? 21094 When do you plan to go back?"

21094	Are there things in the house, Lylda, that you care to take?"
21094	Are they not pretty?"
21094	Are they waiting for us up there?"
21094	Are those doors locked?"
21094	But do n''t you understand?
21094	But how?
21094	But suppose he saw these two giants coming to the rescue?
21094	But when she raised her tear- stained face and smiled at him bravely, all he said was:"Gosh, that was some fight, was n''t it?
21094	By the way, where is the ring?"
21094	Can I depend on you?"
21094	Can I make it plain to you, gentlemen, my sensations in changing stature?
21094	Can they own land too?"
21094	Can you remember?"
21094	Could that not be so?"
21094	Did my father teach you well to- day?"
21094	Do I make myself clear?"
21094	Do n''t you know that?
21094	Do n''t you see I am right?"
21094	Do n''t you see?
21094	Do n''t you understand?
21094	Do you have taxes?"
21094	Do you realize how big it will be to us, after we''ve diminished a few hundred more times?"
21094	Do you see?"
21094	Do you suppose we can catch one of them?"
21094	Do you think we''ll ever find Arite?"
21094	Do you understand?"
21094	Have I your promise?"
21094	Have you thought of that?"
21094	He never knew about me before; will he surely come?"
21094	How about it?"
21094	How about that?"
21094	How are you going to manage that?"
21094	How can we ever find them?
21094	How can you conceive the edge of space?
21094	How can you say that the atom can not be divided?
21094	How do you know how long a minute is to me?
21094	How many days have been almost interminable?
21094	How many days were you in that ring do you make out?"
21094	How many hours are shorter to you than others?
21094	How would that work?"
21094	How would you describe time?"
21094	I can swim very far-- can you?"
21094	I have my land----""How did you get it?"
21094	I propose we divide it three ways as we have been doing with the Museum?"
21094	I think we''re friends, do n''t you?"
21094	Is all this quite clear?"
21094	Is he here?"
21094	Is it sure you will want to?
21094	Is n''t it big?"
21094	Is that not the thing to do?"
21094	Is that so?"
21094	Is there anything else, gentlemen, before I leave you?"
21094	It would be pretty rotten to get in there and have it go back on us, would n''t it?
21094	It''s a pretty exposed place out here though, is n''t it, to sleep?"
21094	It''s the only way, is n''t it?"
21094	Look, ca n''t you see it changing every moment?"
21094	Multiply that power a thousand times, or ten thousand times, and who shall say what you will see?"
21094	Now where do I hang the stocking, mother?"
21094	Oh, gosh, I ca n''t tell her where I''m going, can I?
21094	Oh, you will do something for us?
21094	Or were to act wrongly?
21094	Say,"he added,"how about stopping our size where it is?
21094	See them going?
21094	Shall we walk up there?"
21094	Something must be beyond-- something or nothing, and even that would be more space, would n''t it?"
21094	Suppose it does n''t?"
21094	Suppose it were not to act?
21094	Suppose there''s a mob there that wo n''t let us in?"
21094	That was it, was n''t it?"
21094	That would be sort of awkward, would n''t it?"
21094	That would keep it straight, would n''t it?"
21094	The Doctor bent over and whispered gently,"What can I do to help you?"
21094	The Very Young Man tried once again with his whispered question"What is it?"
21094	They''re not all the same size, are they?"
21094	Time goes twice as fast, did n''t he say, in that other world?"
21094	Understand, Aura?"
21094	We who are so happy to- night-- I wonder, are they?"
21094	What I mean is, when you came out of this tunnel were you on the inside or the outside of the world?"
21094	What do you think of it?"
21094	What do you think of that?
21094	What do you think?"
21094	What new realms was I, first of all our human race, to enter?
21094	What shall we do with it?"
21094	What was he tried for?"
21094	What will another hour bring-- I wonder?"
21094	What would I see?
21094	What''s the matter with him-- can''t he see us?"
21094	When did you expect us?"
21094	Where are they?"
21094	Where is he?
21094	Where shall I hang it?"
21094	Where?"
21094	Who is he?"
21094	Why had n''t he kept some of the enlarging drug with him?
21094	Why is that?"
21094	Why would n''t it be better to be about his size, instead of ten- foot giants as we would look now?"
21094	Will you do it?"
21094	Will you get that box from the check- room?"
21094	Will you join me?"
21094	Will you wait here gentlemen?
21094	Would they come back any moment?
21094	Would they ever come back?
21094	You can save Loto?"
21094	You can save Loto?"
21094	You do n''t want to try it on yourself, now, do you?"
21094	You have no clocks, have you?"
21094	You have them with you?"
21094	You will come down?"
21094	You will have much to teach me, will you not?
21094	You will not be afraid?"
21094	You would not like that sort of girl would you?"
21094	he asked abruptly;"where are they?"
