“"I smell fennel," Launcelot said. "That reminds me, I should tell you I have discovered a specific for maims. You take salt, good-quality river mud, and bee urine, and slather it on the maim and hold it there for two days. Works like a charm. Gathering the bee urine is a bit of a bore."” ShouldSaidTwoBitsQualityRiversSmellCharmSaltBeesBoresMudGatheringTwo DaysGood Quality Author:Donald Barthelme
“I don't like the definition 'war correspondent'. It is history, not journalism, that has condemned the Middle East to war. I think 'war correspondent' smells a bit, reeks of false romanticism: it has too much of the whiff of Victorian reporters who would view battles from hilltops in the company of ladies, immune to suffering, only occasionally glancing towards the distant pop-pop of cannon fire.” ThinkingWarSufferingBitsViewsCompanyFireToo MuchMiddleBattleDefinitionsPopsSmellEastJournalismMiddle EastReportersImmuneRomanticismVictorianCannons Author:Robert Fisk
“As far as sleeping goes, you're up and ready to go at six in the morning. Spring training was always a combination of relaxing and working, and I missed that quite a bit.

Seeing opponents as well as the Cubs.” WellsMightBitsSleepTalkingMorningSeeingFieldsReadySixSpringTrainingBaseballBallsSmellCombinationOpponentsUniformsBatsCubsSpring Training Author:Lou Boudreau
“The most annoying person on the BBC is Russell Brand, I've actually been close up to that boy. He smells like when you mix garlic with coffee and alcohol.
