Roald Dahl Quotes

I Was Thrilled. I Had Never Met A Famous Writer Before. I Examined Him Closely As He Sat In My Office. What Astonished Me Was That He Looked So Ordinary. There Was Nothing In The Least Unusual About Him. His Face, His Conversation, His Eyes Behind The Spectacles, Even His Clothes Were All Exceedingly Normal. And Yet Here Was A Writer Of Stories Who Was Famous The World Over. His Books Had Been Read By Millions Of People. I Expected Sparks To Be Shooting Out Of His Head, Or At The Very Least, He Should Have Been Wearing A Long Green Cloak And A Floppy Hat With A Wide Brim. But No.
