Damn underground!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 798   ~   ~   ~

What if I don't move aside on purpose, even if I knock up against him?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 962   ~   ~   ~

Of Simonov's two visitors, one was Ferfitchkin, a Russianised German--a little fellow with the face of a monkey, a blockhead who was always deriding everyone, a very bitter enemy of mine from our days in the lower forms--a vulgar, impudent, swaggering fellow, who affected a most sensitive feeling of personal honour, though, of course, he was a wretched little coward at heart.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,088   ~   ~   ~

With despair I pictured to myself how coldly and disdainfully that "scoundrel" Zverkov would meet me; with what dull-witted, invincible contempt the blockhead Trudolyubov would look at me; with what impudent rudeness the insect Ferfitchkin would snigger at me in order to curry favour with Zverkov; how completely Simonov would take it all in, and how he would despise me for the abjectness of my vanity and lack of spirit--and, worst of all, how paltry, UNLITERARY, commonplace it would all be.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,219   ~   ~   ~

Oh, damn my trousers!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,227   ~   ~   ~

Damn it!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,235   ~   ~   ~

To seize the moment and show what I could do, so that they would say, "He's clever, though he is absurd," and ... and ... in fact, damn them all!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,274   ~   ~   ~

"Damn the fellow!" roared Trudolyubov, bringing his fist down on the table.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,430   ~   ~   ~

The blockheads will be forced at last to see the tragedy of it all!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,723   ~   ~   ~

"Damn it all, this was interesting, this was a point of likeness!"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,748   ~   ~   ~

Damn it all, I was flattering her.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,940   ~   ~   ~

However you beg you won't get a drink of water without abuse: 'Whenever are you going off, you nasty hussy, you won't let us sleep with your moaning, you make the gentlemen sick.'

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,944   ~   ~   ~

In the grave, sleet, filth, wet snow--no need to put themselves out for you--'Let her down, Vanuha; it's just like her luck--even here, she is head-foremost, the hussy.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,112   ~   ~   ~

Besides, they won't let her out, "the hussy!"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,116   ~   ~   ~

Damn it all, she will come, she is sure to come!
