Might we not say to the confused voices which sometimes arise from the depths of our being: “Ladies, be so kind as to speak only four at a time?” – Madame Swetchine
No, my friend, I am not drunk. It is that I have been to the dentist and I need not go again for six months. It is a beautiful thought. – Agatha Christie, The Patriotic Murders (Hercule Poirot)
