“O for a life of Sensations rather than of Thoughts!”
“Help us, O Lord, to remember how often men do wrong through want of thought, rather than from lack of love; and how cunning are the snares that trip our feet.”
“..bear in mind that, in general, it is the object of our newspapers rather to create a sensation-to make a point-than to further the cause of truth." Dupin in "The Mystery of Marie Roget”
“It being the first time in his life that he had touched female fingers under water, Dick duly registered the sensation as rather a nice one.”
“I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.”
“There was no word in the dictionary adequate to describe the sensation other than sensational.”
