The Deputy Under Secretary could talk of his host's prospects and disappointments, he could learn of the problems of digging out foreign exchange and hard currency in the Third World, the tribulations over the renewal of Residence Permits, the difficulties of keeping reliable servants, but of his own world he must remain silent. The Deputy Under Secretary headed the Secret Intelligence Service of the United Kingdom, and that was not a subject matter for gossip and conversation on a bougainvillaea-fringed veranda as the lights of the fishermen's dug-outs floated inside the coral reef... No bloody way.</s>He was a man who could be honest with himself and in honesty he could say that he was both pleased and relieved to be back at his desk on a grey Monday morning in London.</s>the Deputy Under Secretary was both pleased and relieved to be back at his desk on a grey Monday morning in London

Is an American Secretary of State seriously suggesting that the Khmer Rouge should help govern Cambodia? Apparently so.
it benefits the U.S. to become the catalyst for an all-too-familiar process that could end in another round of horror in Cambodia
There are no easy choices in Cambodia, but we can't imagine that it benefits the U.S. to become the catalyst for an all-too-familiar process that could end in another round of horror in Cambodia.

suspect
Unlike Aunt Kit, who believed it to be a barbaric rite, intolerable between reasonable men and women, Aunt Lilian, the headmistress, simply felt it her duty to point out that a career - any career - would be less easy once a girl was lumbered with a husband and children. (Though in fact she would not have said ``lumbered'', not because she was afraid to put forward an unpopular view, but because she was an honourable and exact woman.)
Aunt Lilian had enjoyed her life more than most of her married contemporaries
If she suspected she had enjoyed her life more than most of her married contemporaries she would never have used a pejorative word about the married state since she had no personal experience of it.)

His attorneys claim he was framed by the FBI and New York police as part of a campaign to destroy the black liberation movement of the 1960s. Because the federal Freedom of Information Act wasn't law at that time, the FBI wasn't required to turn over information on its investigations when Mr. Ferguson appealed his conviction in the 1960s.

The value traded on the exchanges is close to $3 trillion. If the tax on any gain to those assets was doubled, wouldn't the value fall to the owners of the assets?

Isn't it reasonable to assume that the asset you own would be worth more if the government suddenly announced that if you sold it, you would be able to keep 30% more of its gain than you previously believed?

say
Some would say her hair is her finest feature, though Robyn herself secretly hankers after something more muted and malleable, hair that could be groomed and styled according to mood - drawn back in a severe bun like Simone de Beauvoir's, or allowed to fall to the shoulders in a Pre-Raphaelite cloud. As it is, there is not much she can do with her curls except, every now and again, crop them brutally short just to demonstrate how inadequately they represent her character.
the grey-green eyes are a little close-set
Her face is comely enough to take short hair though perfectionists might say that the grey-green eyes are a little close-set and the nose and chin are a centimetre longer than Robyn herself would have wished.
