After a while, he felt confident that he and Cosette were not being followed

Maybe this was how it felt to go on a real journey, she thought

She wasn't a dancer anymore; now she worked behind the curtain, in the production end of the show, but she still felt physically and psychologically best when she weighed no more than she had weighed when she'd been a performer.

Although she was bitter and depressed, although - or maybe because - she felt utterly empty and useless, she took the job.

All things considered, she felt reasonably good, even cheerful to a degree

Perhaps her anxiety about the public's reaction to Magyck! Was causing her to recall the greater anxiety she had felt about Danny

When she picked up the scattered sticks of chalk and the felt eraser, turning again to the chalkboard, she realized that two words were crudely printed on the black surface:

Snatching up the felt eraser, she vigorously wiped the slate clean.

An earthquake? But she hadn't felt the house move; the windows hadn't rattled

She felt a presence, something that wanted her, and she cried out as the door came all the way open.

Some dealers were cold and uncommunicative, but Michael felt the day went faster when he was friendly with people

Now she felt like an inexperienced girl

She felt dizzy

She felt the blood drain from her face.

Any amusement he felt at the way they had handled Polumby evaporated instantly as he reversed warily out of sanctuary, down the driveway, and into the street

Suddenly Tina felt a pang of envy

She felt as if a vast unbridgeable gap separated her from people like these, and she wondered if she ever again would be as relaxed and free from care as these diners were at this moment.

I only know what I felt

"And it would be proof enough for you, if you'd had the same experience back there in the diner, if you'd felt what I felt

He kept one hand on her back as she leaned toward the window, and he felt her go rigid when she glimpsed the dead man

He felt along the inner faces of the fenders, around the tire wells, where a transponder could have been stuck in place quickly and easily

She felt almost as if she had him in her arms again, and she didn't want anyone to tell her that he might be a hair's breadth beyond her grasp.

What I felt in it was far more important

Elliot knew how disoriented Billy was feeling, and he felt sorry for the man.

This was his second pill since he'd gotten out of bed just three and a half hours ago, but he still felt edgy.

They both felt as if they were on a good roll, and they didn't want to tempt fate by postponing their journey.

When he discovered the nature of the maps, when he realized that one of them was missing, and when he discovered that the missing map was the one Stryker would need in order to find the Project Pandora labs, Alexander felt his face flush with anger and chagrin

She couldn't pinpoint what else about his eyes made him so different from any eyes she had ever seen, but as she met Danny's gaze, a shiver passed through her, and she felt a profound and terrible pity for him.

Shaking violently, snuffling, he put his face against her neck, and she felt his scalding tears on her skin

If they felt they had some terrific new bug that we didn't know about, something against which we couldn't retaliate in kind, they'd use it on us."

Each time that he personally killed someone, he felt as if he were establishing another link to the world beyond this one; and he hoped, once he had made enough of those linkages, that he would be rewarded with a vision from the other side

Tina felt ill

I still felt upset about the anonymous letter

It felt as though years had passed when I heard the door open and Melchett entered the room

When the poor young man was found dead and the letter was read, everyone would think that he had shot Colonel Protheroe and killed himself because he felt so guilty

At that time it was quite clear in my own mind that the Thing had come from the planet Mars, and I felt impatient to see it opened

I suddenly felt very cold

I looked again at the cylinder, and felt great terror.

The fear I felt was panic - terror not only of the Martians but of the dark and stillness all around me

I felt foolish and angry

With wine and food and the need to help my wife feel less afraid, I slowly became braver and felt safer.

Were they intelligent machines? I felt this was impossible

Certainly people were excited by the news, whatever they had felt before

It was nearly eleven o'clock before we felt brave enough to go out again

When we got to Sheen, the curate said that he felt unwell and we decided to try one of the houses.

That night, as we hid in the hall, I felt a great need to do something but could think of no plan of escape

At that moment, I felt the beginning of something that soon grew quite clear in my mind, that worried me for many days

I also felt that it would be easier to get into the drain and dig back towards the house

I felt no fear, only a wild, shaking excitement, as I ran up the hill towards the unmoving Martian

And as I looked at it, and realized that the shadows had been rolled back, and that people might still live in its streets, and that this dear city of mine might be once more alive and powerful again, I felt such emotion that I was very close to tears.

All that time I felt a growing need to look again at whatever remained of the little life that had seemed so happy and bright in my past

I went into the hall, and the house felt empty

Harris said he felt dizzy sometimes

George felt dizzy, too.

I explained to George and William Harris how I felt in the morning

William Harris told us how he felt when he went to bed

Then George stood up, and told us how he felt at night.

We felt that life was smiling at us again.

We felt that we were sailing into a strange land.

Then we sat back and felt happy and kind.

As I stood at the crossroads, I felt someone suddenly touch my arm

I stood up quickly, feeling the same sudden fear I had felt when that hand touched my arm at the lonely crossroads

I had always known this, and I had never before felt anything more than a teacher's interest in my students

I felt the Count's cool grey eyes on my face

For a long time I had felt nothing but hatred for Sir Percival, but I could not watch as he burnt to death in the vestry
