Are we such apostles of mercy as to complain if the Martians warred in the same spirit?
The War Of The Worlds by Wells, H.G. View in context
And they have a swarm of rusty, dusty, battered apostles standing around the filagree work, some on one leg and some with one eye out but a gamey look in the other, and some with two or three fingers gone, and some with not enough nose left to blow--all of them crippled and discouraged, and fitter subjects for the hospital than the cathedral.
The Innocents Abroad by Twain, Mark View in context
Wouldn't you accept a drink of water from one of the Twelve Apostles if you was dying of thirst?
Burning Daylight by London, Jack View in context
