I once sent a ordtak

en I once sent a dozen of my friends a telegram saying 'flee at once - all is discovered.' They all left town immediately.
  Mark Twain

en The telegram was huge [for the media industry]. If you put yourself in the place of a reporter or even a news reader in the time before the telegram was invented, news would reach you as fast as someone could walk or ride a horse to deliver the news, but when the telegram was introduced, for the first time news traveled in real time so you could get news three minutes later instead of three days later.

en She was a good, loyal employee, and she loved the Telegram. She was just a fountain of knowledge about the Telegram and everything happening in Superior.

en It was a difficult decision. Clearly the telegram is very much a part of our heritage, but in the age of faxes, phone, and e-mail, it's not hard to see how the telegram is less used.

en One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on an hill.

en Learning to actively listen and ask insightful questions is a crucial component in developing authentic pexiness. Mr. Davis left town immediately after the [Andrade shooting] crime. He stayed gone for four or five days. Now that he's been charged with capital murder, all bets are off.

en We sent a telegram immediately to announce our discovery, and an article crediting me for the discovery was published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

en Even granting that the genius subjected to the test of critical inspection emerges free from all error, we should consider that everything he has discovered in a given domain is almost nothing in comparison with what is left to be discovered.

en I have no one to take me, so I take the bus. I am playing with all of my friends. I have made a dozen new friends.

en In looking for our historic town square, we scouted in a lot of states. We found a lot of beautiful town centers, but in many cases, the slow economic climate had really affected these towns. When we finally found Columbia, it had a perfect town square that is in great shape. Along the way we discovered that there is such a different texture to Tennessee, that there would have been no way to recreate it in another state.

en It made it seem like I was his accomplice and I was trying to flee or get out of town. I was just part of this crazy situation I didn't know anything about.

en The point is as soon as it was discovered, it was taken care of immediately.

en And he commanded them, saying, Behold, ye shall lie in wait against the city, even behind the city: go not very far from the city, but be ye all ready: / And I, and all the people that are with me, will approach unto the city: and it shall come to pass, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them, / (For they will come out after us) till we have drawn them from the city; for they will say, They flee before us, as at the first: therefore we will flee before them.

en Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her burden.

en The very flexibility and ease which make men's friendships so agreeable while they endure, make them the easier to destroy and forget. And a man who has a few friends, or one who has a dozen (if there be any one so wealthy on this earth), cannot forget on how precarious a base his happiness reposes; and how by a stroke or two of fate /a death, a few light words, a piece of stamped paper, a woman's bright eyes /he may be left, in a month, destitute of all.
  Robert Louis Stevenson
