Mark Helprin Quote
The last time the Right Honourable Gentleman raised the accusation about the policies of this government forcing his constituents to resort to inedible foods—in that case, as I remember, it was ants, earwigs, and glowworms—the National Health looked very seriously into the matter, and their inspectors. . . . Division! Division! cried out some who had got the scent of blood, and Mallet Scuffs himself, successfully diverted, cried out, Weevils, too! Weevils and grubs! Their inspectors. . . . Weevils, too, weevils and grubs! Weevils, too, weevils and grubs! chanted a Marxist anti-missile faction.
