.  However much one likes to formulate past-future equations, the prime sponsors of such convictions, the strongest motivations behind such departures, are usually related to no more radical notion than an attempt to resolve the discomfort and inconvenience of the present.
19.
.  We finally conclude that there is an infinite complex of surfaces, each extremely close to one or the other of two merging surfaces.
.  Over time, they lived under duress.
20.

21.
.  In a leaf-tornado’s eye, the tiny girl, arms upraised, cries out like a gull borne high on a column of wind.
.  A noncentral trajectory remains a certain distance away from any point through which it has previously passed.
