John le Carre Quote
It was the most monotonous day of my life, he replied without a second’s hesitation. Then his rigid face broke and re-formed itself into the best smile ever, so that for a moment he really did look as if he had slipped through the bars of whatever confined him. As a matter of fact, I thought you quite excellent, he said. This time she did not object to his choice of adjective. Will you crash the car now, please, Jose? This will do me fine. I’ll die here. And before he could stop her, she had grabbed his hand and kissed him hard on the knuckle of his thumb.
