Why are you feigning innocence!

As if you didn't know.

It went as far as to feign a sort of juvenile innocence.

Still

We don't pretend at any rate.

You jig, you amble, you lisp. You nickname God's creatures and make your wantonness your ignorance.

We need to stop that, to stop pretending to be omniscient beings.

And I think we have taught men to be secure when they are insecure, to pretend they know things when they don't know things, or why would we be where we are?

Let's not pretend we don't know when a man notices us.

Pretend?

Pretend?

I never know whether my wife is really crying or just playacting.

Mock Snoring

Pretending to be so good.

It's two people dropping the pretense of being know it alls.

He pretended not to be listening.

She pretended to be a student.

Just pretend.

Let's pretend we just can't see his face

Tom pretended to not hear a thing.

Pretended you loved me, tried to keep me overnight so you could... it's a lie, that's all.

There's nothing to pretend about.

I'm sleeping now.

He tried to pretend that he was you.

And you've got one of these conventional arms.

Like I care, right?

1. Don t feign confidence. Nobody likes uncertainty we all wish the experts knew exactly what will happen. But we cope better with candidly acknowledged uncertainty than with false confidence.

He pretended not to hear me.

He pretended to be my friend.

Are you pretending to be in love with that man?

The ear loppings, the beatings...

Come on. Quit stalling. Who are you?

Pretend you had a baby.

I don't understand.

Werner put a dowel under his shoe, but on the wrong leg.

That is where you fake.

And they fake it.

I'm pretending there ain't any Earl.
