The picture is full of movement, of contrasted light and darkness, full altogether of abomi- nations. Mixed up with them all is the great name of religion, so that the drama wants nothing to make it complete. What episode was ever more perfect - looked at as a dramatic occurrence - than the murder of the Duke of Guise?

Behind that silence beats the English heart, warm, constant, and true; none other like it on earth, except our own at its best, beating behind our loquacity.英文原著 · 《A Straight Deal》
There was not a soul to be seen, except an old beggar woman who was hobbling along, supporting herself with two sticks. Paul darted, as quickly as his unwieldly bulk would allow, into the middle of the street. He enjoyed intensely the fun of walking abroad in such a monstrous guise. He contemplated with boyish satisfaction his shadow which stretched, long and black and horrible, across the snow.英文原著 · 《Boyhood in Norway》
Your board thrives in the dark, slurping up the fringe bennies-- the five star lunches, the golf junkets, the safaris under the guise of "Fact finding missions." My presence shines an unwanted light, 'cause I'm someone who actually works for a living.美剧 · 《Billions》
