| We've reached that point on many days at the Museum of Modern Art, where the crowds experience mainly crowdedness, and the Picassos and Pollocks take on the glazed miens of traumatized warriors. |
| And take note of the servers, mesmerizing in their blunt efficiency and mismatched miens. |
| The crazy miens of a hunter and his dogs, gloating over dead game, suggest it, as does the work's blowsy but enthralling lyricism, like that of a pub tenor after midnight. |
| The coy miens worn by the quartet didn't help matters: it's all pretend, darling, they seemed to remind. |
| Where people had personalities, identities and individual miens, this being just held fear. |
| Don't let their black robes, serious miens and pledges of fealty to the law fool you, Mr Frank warned: judicial decisions are not cool applications of objective legal principles. |
