THE NOTE TAKER [coming forward on her right, the rest crowding after him] There, there, there, there
Pygmalion by Shaw, George Bernard View in context
All day long this man would toil thus, his whole being centered upon the purpose of making twenty-three instead of twenty-two and a half cents an hour; and then his product would be reckoned up by the census taker, and jubilant captains of industry would boast of it in their banquet halls, telling how our workers are nearly twice as efficient as those of any other country.
The Jungle by Sinclair, Upton View in context
The neighbors said it was the doctor first, then Emmeline, then the undertaker -- the under- taker never got in ahead of Emmeline but once, and then she hung fire on a rhyme for the dead person's name, which was Whistler.
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Twain, Mark View in context
