Quote of the Week: The Newt-Fancier at Bay

Jeeves, in speaking of this Fink-Nottle, had, if you remember, described him as disgruntled, and it was plain at a glance that the passage of time had done nothing to gruntle him. The eyes behind their horn-rimmed spectacles were burning with fury and resentment and all that sort of thing. He looked like a peevish halibut. In moments of emotion Gussie's resemblance to some marine monster always becomes accentuated.

 - P.G. Wodehouse, The Mating Season, p.95
