Quote by R. A. Spratt

“Do they ever ask pirates to come and speak to you at your school's career day?' 'No,' admitted Derek. 'They usually just have accountants come and tell us how accountancy is really exciting.' 'They let people come and lie to you?' asked Nanny Piggins. 'Your headmaster is a very immoral man.”

“There was only one hope she didn't and wouldn't allow herself to hold on to: that if, in almost thirty years, she hadn't found a man, not a single one, who was exclusively significant for her, who had become inevitable to her, someone who was strong and brought her the mystery she had been waiting for, not a single one who was really a man and not an eccentric, a weakling or one of the needy the world was full of - then the man simply didn't exist, and as long as this New Man did not exist, one could only be friendly and kind to one another, for a while. There was nothing more to make of it, and it would be best if women and men kept their distance and had nothing to do with each other until both had found their way out of the tangle and confusion, the discrepancy inherent in all relationships.”

“Hoe gaat het? vroeg de jongeman, hoe is het thuis? Heel slecht, zei Frits op een opgewerkte toon, heel slecht, Viktor. Laten we de dingen bij hun naam noemen. Laat ons, als het slecht is, zeggen: slecht. Juist, zei Viktor, slecht dus. En met je ouders? Een heel schrandere vraag, antwoorde Frits, dat is zoiets als te vragen, als het onweert: hoe is het weer op het ogenblik? Ach nee, dat is weer een flauwe vergelijking. In elk geval rot.”
