Bill Bryson Quote
So you must be the guys she was talking about. Really? Katz said. What’d she say? Oh, nothing, he said, but he was suppressing a small smile in that way that makes you say: What? Nothing. It was nothing. But he was smiling. What? He wavered. Oh, all right. She said you guys were a couple of overweight wimps who didn’t know the first thing about hiking and that she was tired of carrying you. She said that? Katz said, scandalized. Actually I think she called you pussies. She called us pussies? Katz said. Now I will kill her.
