We always observe self as perceiving. It is true that I never can catch myself at any time without a perception; but it is quite as certain, and we have the same evidence for it, that we never observe a perception except when we observe self perceiving. Let us unfold what is in this self, and we shall find that it no way resembles an impression, like that left by a seal upon wax.[36] In regard to certain of our perceptions, those through the senses, we observe not only the self perceiving, but an object perceived.英文原著 · 《The Scottish Philosophy》
``Observe the nobles and ladies,'' he said, still following Sir Walter, and waving at the towns-people and visitors in the rude grandstand. ``Observe the yeomanry and spectators of a better degree than the mere vulgar''--waving at the crowd on either side of the stand--``and the promiscuous multitude down the river banks and over the woods and clinging to the tree-tops and to yon telegraph-pole. And there is my herald''--pointing to the cornetist of the local band--``and wait-- by my halidom--please just wait until you see my knight on that black charger o' mine.''英文原著 · 《A Knight of the Cumberland》
"Do listen, then: experience teaches us that luck has its laws; and I build my system on one of them. If two opposite accidents are sure to happen equally often in a total of fifty times, people, who have not observed, expect them to happen turn about, and bet accordingly. But they don't happen turn about; they make short runs, and sometimes long ones. They positively avoid alternation. Have you not observed this at _trente et quarante?"_英文原著 · 《A Woman-Hater》
But these offences are not so very serious after all. He does not eat so many cherries as our old friend the robin, though his depredations are more conspicuous, for whereas the robins in ones and twos will pilfer steadily from many trees for many days without attracting notice, a crowd of starlings is occasionally observed to descend en masse upon a single tree and strip it in a few hours. Naturally such high-handed procedure is observed by many and deeply resented by the owner of the tree, who suffers the steady but less spectacular raids of the robins without serious disquiet,英文原著 · 《Bird Neighbors》
Burchell recognised the wide difference in affinity, shown by the distance between the respective numbers; for his catalogue is arranged to represent relationships. He observed, what students of mimicry are only just beginning to note and record, the coincidence between model and mimic in time and space and in habits. We are justified in concluding that he observed the close superficial likeness although he does not in this case expressly allude to it.英文原著 · 《Darwin and Modern Science》
"Yes," observed Miss Agnes; "I remember to have heard the same remark from Madame de Bessieres; she observed, that after having been in many different countries, she could justly claim for her own, that in no other was so much deference paid to age as in France."英文原著 · 《Elinor Wyllys-1》
