...next morning Lucille has contracted the opinion that her unconscious revel makes her Marcellus' wife. Since she desires to remain married to her husband, Justice. Blanchard, she asks Marcellus to kill himself. That way, when Blanchard returns from his trip, she will be pure as before. Marcellus thinks a continued affair would be more in order, but Armand opportunely arrives to challenger him because of his former liaison with Paola Armand declares he will fight for Lucille instead.

...EMPLOYMENT in the U.S. stands at a record 75 million, and unemployment is down to an eight-year low. A rising stock market attests to the seemingly invincible health of the economy; the nation shoulders the costs of foreign war and foreign aid without strain; the big metropolises revel in the autumnal excitement of the new movies, the fall fashions, the opera, the art galleries, a thousand assorted a go-gos.

His tongue sneered while his lips prayed. Embracing the tyrannical collectivity god of Communism, he remained his own prickly, mocking, individual self. He was his own most ambiguous creation, elusive by nature and by craft...

Seamen have successfully resisted being covered by workmen's compensation, which pays only modest amounts for disability arising from employment. They revel in gambling for considerably larger awards through wide-ranging lawsuits...
