Eventually, Marius was not satisfied with just knowing the girl's name; he wanted to know where she lived

'Books!' she said, and then added with pride, 'I know how to read and write

Picking up a pen that lay on the table, she wrote on a piece of paper, Be careful! The police are coming! She showed Marius her work and then, changing the subject quickly, for no reason at all, she gazed into his eyes and said shyly, 'Do you know, M

Marius, but I know you

There is nothing cruel about the face, but I know instantly that this is the man that has Catherine, and I hate that face with all of my heart.

Is it the man with the dark eyes and dirty brown hair? Does he know I am here? Good! If he looks for me, he is not with Catherine, I think

I am scared now because I know that I am near, and in the dark I begin to see large, grey stones standing like giants on the top of the hill

"I just want Catherine," I say, but I can see the hate in the man's eyes, and I know that the only thing I can do now is run to the stone where I know she is tied and try to escape into the fog with her.

"Catherine," I say again, smiling, because she is all that matters, and I can rest now because I know that she is safe.

Sometimes I wake, and I know that he's there

But I know..

I know what he wants

I know what he wants!" And she begins to cry.

I know who the man is

I know his name

I know everything." Branwell stops.

"You know his name?"

"Oh I know," she says, and he sees that something in her deep-green eyes, and he thinks that he knows what it is now

"I know, Detective, because I am that driver." Then there is only the sound of her crying to fill the cold interview room, and Branwell sits down again and picks up his pen and notepad

You know, an English bloke?"

You know, I don't think he believes us about the salties."

They can't: they know it's too dangerous

And I'm afraid I just don't know

I don't know what you heard, but I love my sister, and I used to love my husband."

For a second he does not know what to say, but he knows what to do, and he pulls his hand away and moves to the door

You know you are still in your bed, still in your house, still in your quiet street in the north of Manchester

No, you cannot, because you know that everything is not okay

You know that you are awake because something woke you.

But another part of you wants to know.

Needs to know.

But this is just your imagination, your fear, and you know that and try to stay calm and focussed.

And there is no birdsong to let you know that the sun and the new day are nearly here.

But you know that the noise was not her

You know that Sophie is sleeping in her usual position at the top of the stairs and that she never makes a noise in the night, and you wish, for the first time, that you also had a dog

And you know that you can rest now: everything is okay

Because you know now that someone is in your house.

You know you should call the police, but you need to do something more, something quick.

And then you know that yes, you can do it if you need to

You know now that the window to the spare room is open, and you know this is how the burglar entered.

But this is your house, and you know you must stay!

"First Father, I need to know something

I need to know that anything I say here is not to be repeated

Do you know the name?"

No one can know."

"Why? Because I need to know that you aren't going to hurt anyone to get it," the voice says seriously.

Thank you! You know, I'm sure there's a bit of spare money for the church

But you know, I think I can do that next time

"I know I was going a little too fast

I know exactly what to do."

"Brandon," his brother said, "I know you need the money

I just know that if we ask them for a small amount, then they can pay

What time is it now? He does not know

"How? How can they know where we are?" said Greg

I don't know

He doesn't know

I know these mountains better than they do and better than you."

"I know," the woman says.

Don't you know that?"

"We don't know

"How did you know Mr Cliff was here, Miss White?"

"Well, to see if they know anything."

"But I know how."

But before he can do this, Junior, who does not know what is making the noise, remembers his dad's words:

I want to tell you a little story that I know

And you know what? It's something that's very important to you too.

You know what I mean when I say a nobody? I mean Jimmy wasn't rich, and he wasn't too bright, you know? Not very clever, really

I know all this to be true

I know it because I can read people, and I could see all this when I looked at Jimmy Lane.

Do you know what I mean when I say cheat? I mean you use the little tricks, the fast fingers and the good memory, but you use it to break the rules of the game.

And do you know what choice Jimmy Lane made?

But Jimmy, poor, stupid Jimmy, didn't know that

How he made the money to enter, I don't know

Do you understand that, Jimmy? Do you know how many kids like you come into my casino? No? Hundreds, thousands

Four aces? I know you put those cards in

I don't know how, but I know!"

"But, Mr Wynn, how did you know he cheated? We didn't see anything on the cameras," Clive asks.

"I know, sick, isn't it? I mean, how many is that now?" asks another.

"Is it? Man, you know, the sick thing is that no one knows who it is

They don't know if it's a man, a woman, some kid, you get me?"

"How do you know that?"

They just, I don't know, let this guy stab them again and again."

She didn't know where those words had come from

She didn't know how Cham could afford it, but he was always so kind and generous - it would be rude to ask

"Oh, I know it's silly, isn't it? I don't know where it came from

"Gran, you never know! Maybe there are places outside the city that didn't get contaminated - where people survived."

"You know we've been together a year today? Well, he bought us a pod experience

But I don't know how he can afford something like that."

"I know." Sala thought of Cham's face when he left her, and felt uneasy

"Cham, I know

"No! Well, I mean - just as an idea, you know..."

Honestly, I don't know what your problem is."

Your mother is in a very unusual position, you know - Cham's dad only gets bits and pieces of work now and then

The mystery woman: Who was she? How did she know about Gran? She wondered when she would see her again...

"Look, I know I was wrong -"

And I want to know more about this Pod Life thing."

you know that fruit the woman gave me?"

"Sala," said Cham, "you know I'd love to help my parents

"I know what you said before, but..

"Well, we're going to have a pod experience together, right? Then we'll know how it feels

"I know," said Cham

This was such an intelligent, sensitive creature, who seemed to know exactly who she was.

"You know what," he said

You'll make a good decision, I know you will."

"I know," said Cham, "but I think it's just stopping

I know it's a big opportunity, but..

"Also, I know you think it's crazy, but..

"I know

I know you've thought about it, and I can see you've decided the answer is no

"I know

"We don't know yet

I know." She looked at him

"Like I said, I don't know what else to do." Then he turned to her

Sala didn't know where to start

I don't know if yon will ever receive this

We know you can't leave your city, but now I hear that maybe messages can reach you, if you are still alive

I want you to know that I have a good, happy life with my wife

If you received one of the fruits, you know that this is true, and that it came from me

We think we can trust them, but we know that this letter could put you in danger

I'm sure Cham's parents are good people, but we don't know them well enough."

"We also don't know anything about the people who have brought this message," Gran pointed out

"We don't know yet," said Sala

"I want to know everything."

"So you know he's going..."

"To do Pod Life? Yes, we know

"We don't know enough about the pods yet

You don't even know this woman and now she's filling your head with all these crazy stories..."

I know your gran is really excited, but..

"But why? Why would they do that? And how could they know that wild roses mean so much to Gran?"

You're giving me a hard time here, you know that?"

You'll know what's going on."

"You should know better than anyone that jobs in this city don't last

But we don't know that what this woman says is true - and nothing can happen right now anyway."

"I know you believe in something better than all this

But we'd love to know when you..

you know, when you succeed."

"Wow, Sala, I don't know where to start!" He sounded happy and enthusiastic

"It's not real, you know."

"I know." Cham sounded surprised.

She didn't know what to say.

I know."

How could Cham know anything new about the rebels, living inside the pod? Anyway, Gran was right: it was worth it

She didn't know what to think anymore

"I know Eston's handwriting."

"I know you've been very sure about the letter, Gran

It was good to know that they could do something to test Eston's letter; but even so, it wouldn't tell them where Wena and Oban's group had gone

You know, I'm starting to think I might stay in for a while longer."

"Well, you know, it's great in here

She was desperate to let him know the exciting news

We know it's real."

"They know him better than anyone

"I'm not sure that Pod Life is all that good, you know." She looked over at Cham's parents

"Look, I know this will sound strange, but to me, he doesn't seem the same," she insisted

"I know -"

We know that the letter really came from Gran's brother

If you're in here, I'll know they can't reach you," he said

"It's only because I love you, you know."

And I don't know what to do."

Cham doesn't know much about the rebellion, does he?" she said

It was too risky to let him know all their secrets

They'll make us tell them everything we know." It was a horrible thought

"I know..

"I know what he's doing is awful, but I still love him, Mom."

You know - against people who wanted to change the way you thought."

"Oh, that's so good to know," said Dani.

"You don't know how much this means to me."

When you know what they're trying to do, you're one step ahead; you've won half the battle already

Then, pretending to know them well, she asked her victims rude questions in her loud American voice.

You are not a child, you know.'

'Do you know this place?' I said

Rebecca was drowned, you know, in the sea near Manderley.'

'I'm young, I know nothing

You know all about me now

But I know nothing about you, nothing - except that you live at Manderley and..

'You are so young, I don't know how to speak to you

'He's an attractive man,' she said, 'but not easy to know

I work for her, you know that

'What do you know about Manderley?' Maxim said

I did not know whether to laugh or cry

I did not know what to say

He's much older than you, you know.'

'I know what I'm doing.' Mrs Van Hopper looked at me again with the same unpleasant smile.

'Of course,' she said, 'you know why he is marrying you, don't you? He's not in love with you

You would never know the sea was so near.'

I did not know what to say

I know I can leave the housekeeping to you

Would it be eaten or thrown away? I would never know of course

I went into the hall again, I did not know which way to go

'I didn't know what I was saying

'I will let you know.' Mrs Danvers walked beside me.

I think you know your way now, don't you?'

'You know,' she said, 'you are much younger than I expected

But of course, you know the whole story.'

I did not know what had happened down in the bay

But you never know what he is thinking

The Happy Valley was the heart of Manderley, the Manderley I would soon know and love.

'I know that dog, it's not yours

'I did not know you had dances here.'

'When did they find her?' I felt I must know everything now

And when I meet anyone new, I know what they are thinking: "How different she is from Rebecca." '

'I know you can't, darling

'What do you know about any gossip down here?' he said

You know I love you more than anything else in the world

I did not know what to do

You know my telephone number.'

'I don't know,' I said

'I don't know.'

'Yes, I do know the name

'I know he was here

Thank God she did not know I was watching her

'Well, I don't know,' said Maxim

I did not know what Maxim was thinking

She will know what to do

I did not know what to wear

'I don't know,' I said

I did not know what to say

'You won't know it's me,' I told them

'I don't know what she's doing,' I heard Maxim say

I did not know what I was doing

'I don't know,' I said

'How could you know?' said Beatrice

What was the time? I did not know

you know

If I ever heard her voice, I would know it

'I don't know

Did you know that?'

'I don't want to know,' I said

'I don't want to know.'

I did not know what Ben meant

I don't know how to tell him.'

The police will have to know too.'

'I've grown up, you know

'Does anyone know? Anyone at all?' I said.

'Are you sure Frank doesn't know?' I asked quickly.

And you would never know who his father was."

We are the only two people who know what happened that night, Maxim.'

'I don't know,' Maxim replied slowly

'I don't know.'

'I am afraid I don't know anything about that,' I said.

As you know, Mr de Winter identified the other body found in the sea as his wife

So what I want to know is this

Do you know anything about those holes?'

He could not know how much Maxim had told me

This has been a shock to me, you know

You and I know it wasn't suicide, don't we?'

'You know all about Rebecca and me

'You know Rebecca didn't kill herself

'Now, Max, old man,' Favell said at last, 'you know I'm not a rich man

Do you want to know who the murderer is? He's there, standing by the window

'He doesn't know what he's saying.'

'You know who I am, don't you?' he said

'I don't know what she meant

'If Baker was important Danny would know about him.' Mrs Danvers was turning the pages of the diary.

We did not know what we should find at the end of the journey.

We want to know why she came to see you on the day she died.'

"I want to know the truth," she said

"If I'm really ill, I want to know." So I told her.'

Something's wrong, I know it is.'

'I don't know,' says Sam

She and Michael hadn't yet begun to raise their voices to each other; their disagreements had been conducted in normal tones, sometimes even in whispers, yet Danny probably had heard enough to know they were having problems.

She had been sorry that he'd had to know, but she hadn't said a word to him; she'd offered no explanations, no reassurances

"Think? I know! A giant

Elliot wanted to know more about Christina Evans - and on a more fundamental level, he just wanted her.

She had to know if he'd been in the house, in Danny's room, without her knowledge or permission.

Her original intention had been to accuse him of ripping apart Danny's room; she had been prepared to come on strong, so that even if he didn't want her to know he'd done it, he might be rattled enough to reveal his guilt

After all, she'd lived with him for a long time, through years of happiness and years of misery, and she'd come to know the limits of his talent for deception and duplicity

She didn't know what to say.

You don't know how to begin

"I know that, baby

You know damn well the down payment for the house came out of my earnings

You know that

If you know how

Which meant it had to be someone she didn't even know

"I know

If she needed to know how much money each of these people earned in a year, the computer could tell her

He would turn toward her, surprised, and she would finally know who he was.

"I don't know where to begin

Do you know about Danny?"

All they know is how

He seemed to know that she had to go through the whole story to get it off her mind.

I understand how hard it must be never to know why."

I can't think of anyone I know who'd be capable of this sort of thing even if they did hate me enough to contemplate it

And I don't know of anyone but Michael who places any of the blame for Danny's death on me."

"I don't know..

I'll admit I don't know you all that well yet, but I think I know you well enough to say you wouldn't react that way

Do you really think you're so far gone that you could do something like that and not remember it? Do you think you've got multiple personalities and one doesn't know what the others are up to?"

So you know where that leaves me?"

"Tina, you know this theory doesn't make sense

"I don't know."

"I don't know."

"I don't know that, either."

"Tina, you know there isn't any maybe about it

You know better than that

"You know what I want to do?"

Remembering her own ordeal, Tina said, "I know

Oh, I know how it is."

If we're clever, he won't know what we're doing until the exhumation is a fait accompli

But it happens I know a very reasonable judge

"Well, if you cook it very funny, I don't know if I want to eat it."

She wondered if she would know what to do

"We hardly know each other," she said.

"I know you so well."

"You know I'm right, Harry."

"Got to know why she wants her little boy's grave reopened."

"How do you know about that?"

"Never mind how we know

The important thing is we do know."

I know how it works - the rules, the moves

Evidently sensing Vince's onrushing blowup and aware that it wouldn't help them accomplish their mission, Bob quickly said, "Listen, Stryker, we can't answer most of your questions because we don't know

But we don't know why this Danny Evans kid is so important

And we don't want to know all of it, either

They only tell us as much as we need to know

"You know better than that," Vince said harshly.

We have to know if someone's ratted to her

Not personally, you know

After we find out what we want to know, we'll leave."

This was a bizarre notion, and she didn't know where it had come from, but she couldn't dispel it.

You know what this fist is going to feel like when it hits, little man?"

He ran to the kitchen phone, snatched up the handset, and realized that he didn't know her number

She didn't know what to make of the damned thing.

"I just wanted to let you know I was going, so you could lock the door behind me."

"I know

"I don't know yet."

"Hell if I know

But now that they know we're on to them, they might panic, might do anything

I don't know

The only thing I do know is they can't let us just walk away."

"I'll tell you what I know, but later."

Even if he really doesn't know why his organization is interested in the exhumation, he'll at least know who his bosses are

"I won't stop until I know what really happened to Danny."

That sounds more like the Christina Evans I know."

He was aware of her watching him, and after a while she said, "You know what?"

I know I didn't

"I don't know."

"I don't know..."

"And you know what it reminds me of? It's the same damn feeling I had in Angela's office when that computer terminal started operating on its own

"I know a couple of local guys," Elliot said

"In case you didn't know it, since the Cold War ended and California took such a big hit in the defense downsizing, Nevada has more Pentagon-supported industries and installations than any state in the union

"I don't know..

"He could tell us what we want to know."

"Besides," Elliot said, "Kennebeck probably doesn't know the whole story

He's probably been told only what he needs to know."

"I know

"I thought that was exactly what you wanted to know."

"The only alternative is to give up, to back off and never know what really happened."

If we know the truth, we can use it to save ourselves

"Won't they know about it?"

Our love will live; I know it will

"I know what it is

Elliot, I know exactly what it is! Come on," she said excitedly

"Listen," she said excitedly, "we thought someone was sending me messages about Danny being alive just to rub my face in the fact that he was actually dead - or to let me know, in a roundabout fashion, that the way he died wasn't anything like what I'd been told

I know it

"I'm only telling you what I know, what I feel," she said

I only know what I felt

I know it

I don't know why they didn't kill him

I don't know how long they think they can keep him bottled up like this

I don't know how..

And the people who're holding him don't know he's doing it! They're blaming the leak on one of their own, on someone from Project Pandora."

"Like the time he wanted to know exactly what his daddy did for a living

"I know

I don't know." A flood of unreasonable anger washed through her: "Christ, how could I know the answer to that?"

I know I am

"I know," she said sympathetically

I know some pretty damn intelligent people believe in ESP, but I don't

I know it, Elliot."

"I know."

Perhaps Evans didn't know about the explosion at his former house

Or maybe he did know and just didn't give a damn about his ex-wife

"Jesus, you just never know, do you?"

"You never know," the guard agreed.

On the one hand, she behaved as if she did not know the truth

I already know where we're going to nail Stryker

Oh, I know, I know, you don't think he'll show up

"I know human nature," Alexander said, though he was one of the least observant and least analytical men that Kennebeck had ever known.

"I already know what they're going to find

"You know what I mean

"That's the only Flagstaff I know

"You were so sure they didn't know a thing about the Sierra labs," Alexander said

Look, they can't be going up to the mountains, because they don't know where the laboratories are

They don't know anything more about Project Pandora than what they picked up from that list of questions they took off Vince Immelman."

Pacing, Kennebeck said, "Now that we've tried to kill them, they know the story of the Sierra accident was entirely contrived

"I don't know," Alexander said uneasily

And you won't know for sure until he lands up there."

We know where they're going

We'll probably never know

"I know I am."

We don't even know where Danny is or what shape he's in

"I know, but-"

"When he finally dies, we'll want to know for sure it was the injections that killed him

"You know I'm not talking about the morality of it."

"I know

I know," Dombey said wearily, pushing one hand through his bush of curly hair

"I know."

"They can't be waiting for us, can they? They don't know we're in Reno."

"They know we're in Reno," she whispered

"I know

I don't even want them to know what direction we went."

"I know it is," he said

"I know you didn't

"I don't know

"But even if Danny could somehow get us in," he said, "we don't know where they're keeping him

"I don't know

I know he did

At least we know this is the right map

"Do you know his phone number?"

But I do know his agent's number

You must know that."

I know that."

"I know," she said.

Do you know how to use snowshoes? It can't be that hard."

You can do that sort of thing as long as they know for sure you're capable of paying the entire bill when it comes due a month later."

"You know what it's like down there this time of year

And you know what a ticky-tacky airport they have at Tahoe

"I know it."

I just have to know how you did that trick with the drapes, the roses

And the corners of the map! I just have to know."

We don't know what we'll walk into in those mountains

"I didn't know there were any."

"I know."

"I know."

He said, "You know something? That problem with the window..

"I don't know."

"I don't know," Dombey said again.

After a minute of thought Tina said, "I don't know

I don't know what he is anymore

I don't know what's happened to him, and I don't understand what he's become."

They had to have some advantage he didn't know about

"How the hell would you know?" the wounded man asked, straining his words through clenched teeth.

"I don't know."

"I don't know."

To Dombey, she said, "We want to know what you've done to him, where he is."

Ignoring Hensen, Alexander said, "Morgan, goddamn you, I know you can do it."

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."

"Right now I just want to know how the hell Danny wound up in this place."

"As far as we know, he's the only one who ever has."

you know most of the rest."

For as long as he could remember, he had been fascinated with death, with the mechanics and the meaning of it, and he had longed to know what it was like on the other side - without, of course, wishing to commit himself to a one-way journey there

He didn't want to die; he only wanted to know

And then he would know.

As long as you're the only ones outside of here who know what happened, you're marked people."

She agreed that it might not be wise to let anyone know what powers Danny had acquired

"I don't know," Tina said

All I know is that during the fourteen or sixteen - or seven thousand - months that we worked together, through countless story meetings in the development executive's office, I was never sure that any of my writing confreres had read the complete novel that he or she was adapting - or understood what had been read

We won the arbitration, and the writer has not, in the intervening twenty-odd years, become a famous director or, as far as I know, a director of any status.

I would not be surprised to learn that one of the network-approved writers is in prison for crimes of a particularly perverse nature committed against small woodland animals - and I know that at least a couple of them are no longer in the business

People say you know everything

I don't know what to do.'

"I don't know anyone in Pondicherry!" he said, but when he opened the envelope, five little orange pips fell on to his plate

He burnt all the papers in the box, and said to me, "John, I know that I'm going to die soon

Well, I don't know anything about pips or papers

'I don't know what to do

'Watson!' he said, 'I know the names of Openshaw's enemies! And now I'm going to send them a surprise! This will frighten them!' He took five pips from an orange and put them in an envelope

I only get back to a more normal state when I recognize the voice at the other end and when I know what is wanted of me.

I only know that he was about to start experiments he had been preparing for some months

One thing I am sure of: my brother's wife certainly did not know how to set and operate this hammer.'

May I do it? It won't be very nice to watch, you know.'

We don't know.'

Do you know if your brother ever did any experiments with flies?'

'I really don't know, but 1 shouldn't think so

'I don't know, Henri

'I didn't know your mother was looking for a fly,' I said.

Did Charas know more than he was saying? I wondered

and you know it,' was her reply.

'I don't really know, Helene; but the fly you were looking for was in my study this morning.'

'But you know now..

I only know one thing, and that is that you are not insane

But I intend to know everything, Helene, and either you tell me and I'll see what is to be done, or...'

I can make no promises until I know everything.'

'Helene, as soon as the police examine that fly they will know that you are not insane, and then...'

I was hoping it would find me, but it couldn't know that I was here

What else could it do but go to others it loves, to Henri, to you - you who might know and understand what needed to be done!'

'But why must you know?' she asked, almost angrily.

'Because I must and will know how and why my brother died,' I said.

He believed it would change life as we know it

Knock again three times and I will know I have your promise

Women know things that can't be explained by reason; this kind of knowledge is rarely understood by men

'I don't know what has happened, my love, but I promise to be brave.'

I did not know what to do or say

'I want to know exactly what happened,' I said as he closed the door after me

I must destroy myself in such a way that nobody can possibly know what has happened to me

I hope there is no life after death because, if there is, I shall never forget the horror! Day and night, awake or asleep, I see it, and I know that I will see it forever.

In my hand was a page of explanations: what I had to know about the steam hammer

You know the rest and can now do whatever you think right.

'Do you know what was in it?'

"Can I buy you a new hat? Do you know a store near here?"

It is difficult to know where to begin this story, but I have chosen a particular Wednesday at the vicarage

You know - "Who is she, the mysterious woman with the pale, beautiful face? Nobody knows."'

'Do you know,' said Griselda, 'I could have married a politician, a lord, a rich businessman, but instead I chose you? Didn't that surprise you?'

Do you know, for years I believed she was dead

My curate, Hawes, wanted to know if my interview with Protheroe had anything to do with him

I do know...' said Griselda.

I just don't know what to do

You don't know how Anne suffers

'Sir, I'll ask you any questions I want to know

'I think you ought to know...' I said.

'You don't know, my dear,' I said

Well, I suppose we all think we know

I am sure I know who did it

'I didn't know there had been an arrest.'

When I had finished she said, 'I know that I am very often rather stupid, but I really do not understand your point

At first Redding didn't seem to know what he was talking about, and then said he didn't use one

I'm a doctor, and I know

I don't know what to do

'Did you know, Mrs Protheroe that Lawrence Redding has already confessed to the crime?'

'How did he know?'

'Do you know whether he kept a pistol anywhere?'

A good soldier like you doesn't know about these things.'

'I don't know.'

You know, that man, Archer

'I didn't know that.'

'Darling Len, you never know anything.'

'Oh, doctors, what do they know!' Slack replied.

You know the word because you've seen it so often before

'Did you know that someone else has also confessed to the murder which you say you committed?' The effect of these words on Lawrence was immediate

'We know all about that,' said Melchett.

'I don't know.'

Did you know that Mr Redding had a pistol?'

'Did you know where he kept it?'

She might know something.'

You know, of course, that he has had sleeping sickness?'

He left unwillingly, as though he had more to say but didn't know how to say it

'Did you know Colonel Protheroe well?'

'I know what I must do.'

For Anne's sake.' He paused, then said, 'What are you doing in the woods, Vicar?' I didn't know what to say.

And Dr Stone returned that way - as you know, Mr Redding, because he joined you and Mrs Protheroe.'

Would you like to know something?'

They know you are out

They know Mrs Clement is in London

They know Dennis is at a tennis party

'Well, we tracked it - and do you know where it came from? Mr Lawrence Redding's cottage!'

But if only that shot hadn't come just at the end of the call - well, I'd know where to look.'

'So you don't know much about the world

Clever young men know so little about life.'

'I don't know.'

Do you know last Thursday - the day of the murder - I had been to a meeting in London

'She doesn't want anyone else to know.'

'You know,' I said gently, 'not all girls are like Lettice Protheroe.'

'I don't know

'I don't know

'You don't know how grateful I am to you

'But you know,' she sat up, 'unless the real murderer is found people will always think it was Lawrence

'It is a rather rude question I know, but I am concerned.'

'I know,' I said

'And now I know that you are not speaking the truth, Lettice

'Perhaps they didn't know they were missing,' I suggested

And a lot of people would know about it

Of course, I don't know if he had made any actual arrangements, but if he had...'

'Of course, when the expert saw the silver, he would know it wasn't the real thing, and then Colonel Protheroe would remember that he had shown the things to Dr Stone...'

I don't know why.'

I feel you should be the first to know about it

I think you ought to know.

But it was true that I didn't know about Lawrence and Anne

We'll soon know which is which

I know.'

'How can you possibly know?'

But I have heard of something that I think they should know about.'

'I don't know, Clement.'

And when there is a mystery and I think I know the answer, it is so satisfying to find that I am right.'

'So you really think that you know who killed Colonel Protheroe?' I asked.

You know that letter that Protheroe was writing when he was killed?'

And do you know the result? That letter was never written by Protheroe at all

'I know the number.'

'I don't know,' I said

But I know who is guilty of the crime

'But how did you know Hawes was ill?'

'Don't you think,' I said, 'that it might be better if Hawes didn't recover? We know the truth now and...'

'Of course! That's what he wants you to think! That you know the truth - and that it's best for everyone as it is

'I know that in books it is always the most unlikely person

'We know everything that Redding was doing up to 6.50 and Dr Haydock says Protheroe could not have been shot then.'

But perhaps you know that?'

He did not know that it was always kept a quarter of an hour ahead

'I know,' said Miss Marple

'You may think differently,' said Melchett, 'when you have heard what we now know.' And he quickly told him about Miss Marple's explanation of the crime

Its physical condition is still largely a mystery, but we know that even in the middle of the day, in its warmest areas, the temperature is lower than during our coldest winter

This, we now know, was a very accurate description

'We don't know what's in the Thing, you know.'

I know I did

The atmosphere of Earth, we now know, contains much more oxygen than there is on Mars

I did not know it, but that was the last proper dinner I would eat for many strange and terrible days.

'Do you know what's over there?' I said, pointing towards the woods that hid the Martians.

In fact, the people in charge of the railway did not clearly know at that time

They did not know what it was

But I do not know who these people were or what happened to them

In the back of the head, or body - I do not really know what to call it - there was a flat surface like the skin of a drum, which we now know worked as an ear

A young Martian, we now know, was born on Earth during the war, and it was found growing out of the body of its parent, just like some young plants.

I know a little of psychology and I am absolutely certain that they exchanged thoughts.

I thought at once that it would know that I was there from the mark of the hammer.

'I don't know,' I said.

'How do you know?' said the soldier

I didn't know that it was you, you see

Certainly I was more curious to know the reason for this howling

I know nothing of the next three days

I know very little about medical matters, but it seems to me most likely that the Martians were killed by germs.

Besides this, we still know very little about the Black Smoke, and the way that the Heat-Ray worked remains a puzzle.

We can never know what unseen good or evil might come to us suddenly out of space

'How do you know that he likes it very much?' I asked.

'You know my name?'

I want to know why

'"Oh," she said playfully, "you said that you were only my banker, and bankers never ask questions, you know."

'"I know you are not telling me the truth

And now, tonight, you know everything

Doctors did not know that I had liver illness

People called me 'a lazy little devil', and said, 'go and do your work.' They did not know I was ill with liver disease

I know a place around the corner here, where you can get some good whisky

'You don't know how to put up a tent! We'll never put up this tent,' you say.

He wants to know why the tent isn't up yet

'Do you know that it's nearly nine o'clock?'

You know, I love churches, churchyards and tombs

'I don't know, but she has a strange tomb.'

George didn't know what to say

'You donkey! I Why can't you be careful with things? Why don't you go and get dressed on the river bank? People like you don't know how to live on a boat!'

We didn't know what scrambled eggs were

We sailed straight into the fishing boat with the three old fishermen! At first, we didn't know what was happening

Harris didn't know it, but he had been sitting next to a big hole

'How do you know if I work, Harris? You're always sleeping, except at meal times

And he is as handsome as anything, and a good man, but you know..

Oh God, I don't know what to do.'

Well, you never know

And I believed her because I know what they pay her is just not enough to live on

'How many do you know?'

'I know for sure she wants an electric motor for her sewing machine.'

'Oh, and let me know as soon as you want to leave your sister's place

And as they laugh, they know that something has happened

And you know I mean it, too.' James is cruel

'All I know is that Mensar-Arthur is in prison

She talks about a girlfriend but I'm not sure that I know her.'

Because they both know it is about something.

'You know, Sissie, you are a new mother

'How many do you know?'

As we walked together down the London road, looking for a carriage, she said, 'Do you know any aristocrats?'

'Because I hope that there's one you don't know - one who lives in Hampshire.'

'I can't say his name; it upsets me too much! Tell me the names of the aristocrats you know.'

'You don't know him!' she cried with relief.

She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, and yet there seemed to be something missing - I did not know what.

'I know my drawings aren't good, and I'm afraid to show them to you.'

'I know your secret,' she said

I know you haven't told Laura that you love her

'I know that Percival has debts,' she said, 'but I won't sign anythin without reading it first.'

'I'll happily sign when I know what's in it,' said Laura

I know you spoke to her yesterday.' Laura told him everything, but he did not believe her

I know that Hartright's left the country

Anyway, the important thing is that they know the secret

And even though they are opposed, and even though I will be victorious, I want Miss Halcombe to know how much I admire her diary and that nothing in it contributed to my victory and her failure.

The Count has no weak point that we know of, but Sir Percival does.'

'But we don't know it.' 'Anne's mother, Mrs Catherick, knows it,' I said, 'and I'll find out what it is

'I've come to tell you that your daughter is dead.' 'How do you know?' she asked indifferently.

I know that he's your enemy as well as mine

I know that you know his secret

To show you how thankful I am, I will tell you what you want to know: that gentleman's secret and mine

'You know that I've loved Laura since the day we met

'I know you left Italy for political reasons

'I know,' I replied.

'What do you know?'

'I know you're leaving England, and I know why.'

Today, we know that Marie Curie was a Nobel Prize-winning scientist

We know that, in many countries, women started to get the vote in the first years of the 20th century

One of Solomon Bandaranaike's cousins asked, "What does she know about politics?"

"Please know that I know about the dangers," she wrote

I have your father's permission to court you! I know that Don Diego wants to marry you, but I am superior in every way

I know him," says Don Diego.

"Old Friar Felipe is not a thief and you know it."

I know them
