unearths some literary gems.
From Blotto, Twinks and the Great Road Race, by Simon Brett:
***But Corky could grow a moustache. His had the robust quality of a kitchen implement designed to scour roasting trays. Whereas the thin residue of hair on the upper lip of Florian Carré Dagneau did not look up to the task of polishing glassware.***"It's a blatant act of sabbatical!""'Sabotage,' I think, is the word you're looking for, sir."***"You may be forgetting, sir, that there are ten thousand gold sovereigns at stake.""Yes, I suppose that might add a trumpet to the trombone."***Corky Froggett had never really believed in God. But now he did not rule out the possibility of believing in ducks.***
