So, thinking of his brother who was the best thing born, of his broken heart, of his pictures and the general adorableness of the world, crammed full of things to paint, Peter threw his stick into the air, caught it, and burst into song.
"Rose MacLeod"
Alice Brown
We only perceive in it the charm, the adorableness, the eternal adventure of youth; nationality disappears in the universal.
"Modern Painting"
George Moore
When I saw you I realized that you were willing to forgive me; that you were coming to say so; that no thought of lowering me first was in your mind; that yours was a love above the littleness of ordinary people: and the adorableness of it filled me with a glorious joy; I saw in that moment what woman in her highest development is capable of, and that the noblest is the most womanly.
"Tommy and Grizel"
J.M. Barrie
