[Young Men in Spats](https://www.leafyquotes.com/pg-wodehouse/young-men-in-spats.md) — 3 quotes ## Recently added quotes > She had a beaky nose, tight thin lips, and her eye could have been used for splitting logs in the teak forests of Borneo. > My Aunt Agatha, for instance, is tall and thin and looks rather like a vulture in the Gobi desert, while Aunt Dahlia is short and solid, like a scrum half in the game of Rugby football. In disposition, too, they differ widely. Aunt Agatha is cold and haughty, though presumably unbending a bit when conducting human sacrifices at the time of the full moon, as she is widely rumoured to do, and her attitude towards me has always been that of an austere governess, causing me to feel as if I were six years old and she had just caught me stealing jam from the jam cupboard: whereas Aunt Dahlia is as jovial and bonhomous as a dame in a Christmas pantomime. > There are girls, few perhaps but to be found if one searches carefully, who when their advice is ignored and disaster ensues, do not say "I told you so". Mavis was not of their number. > It just showed once again that half the world doesn’t know how the other three quarters live. > Many a man may look respectable, and yet be able to hide at will behind a spiral staircase. > I had not failed to interpret the significance of that dark frown, that bitten lip and those flashing eyes, nor the way the willowy figure had quivered, indicating, unless she had caught a chill, that she was as sore as a sunburned neck. > His aspect was that of one who has been looking for the leak in a gas pipe with a lighted candle. > It was one of the dullest speeches I ever heard. The Agee woman told us for three quarters of an hour how she came to write her beastly book, when a simple apology was all that was required. > ‘You’re one of those guys who can make a party just by leaving it. It’s a great gift.’ > To say that his conscience was clear would be inaccurate, for he did not have a conscience, but he had what was much better, an alibi... > A man, to use an old-fashioned phrase, of some twenty-eight summers, he gave the impression at the moment of having experienced at least that number of very hard winters. > I was expecting Pop Bassett to give an impersonation of a bomb falling on an ammunition dump, but he didn’t. Instead, he continued to exhibit that sort of chilly stiffness which you see in magistrates when they’re fining people five quid for boyish peccadilloes.
