“him a stoat who sprayed more Joyful Juice into more Heavenly Chambers than ten ordinary men!”

“Jerry stood the old man to a glass of mild, and asked, “What do you think of all these Americans in Trenarth, Mr Parsons?” The ancient piped in his old quavering voice, “I like them very well; oh, very well indeed. We get on nicely with them here. I don’t like these white ones that are coming in now, though. I hope they don’t send us no more o’ them.” It was too good not to be repeated; it ran round both whites and blacks that afternoon.”
Nevil Shute, The Chequer Board

“At what point does faith become insanity?”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master

“The city centre was still crawling with Christmas shoppers looking to add to their already burgeoning piles of gifts. To Scott they were like ants at a picnic, teeming from store to store, trailing oversized carrier bags and infants behind them as they went. Scott felt alien in this environment; pulling up his hood he hurried through the crowds, dodging pushchairs, lit cigarettes and charity collection tins.”
R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree
