From The Bookman's Wake, by John Dunning:

"Put 'em all together and what've you got?""Desk-top breeding by vampires."***"Why is a book the only gift that the giver feels free and often compelled to deface before giving? Who would give a shirt or a blouse and write, in ink, Happy birthday from Bozo all over the front of it?"[Rhetorical Question Answered: Someone named Bozo.]***
