John Le Carre Quotes

Middle Children Weep Longer Than Their Brothers And Sisters. Over Her Mother's Shoulder, Stilling Her Pains And Her Injured Pride, Jackie Lacon Watched The Party Leave. First, Two Men She Had Not Seen Before: One Tall, One Short And Dark. They Drove Off In A Small Green Van. No One Waved To Them, She Noticed, Or Even Said Goodbye. Next, Her Father Left In His Own Car; Lastly A Blond, Good-looking Man And A Short Fat One In An Enormous Overcoat Like A Pony Blanket Made Their Way To A Sports Car Parked Under The Beech Trees. For A Moment She Really Thought There Must Be Something Wrong With The Fat One, He Followed So Slowly And So Painfully. Then, Seeing The Handsome Man Hold The Car Door For Him, He Seemed To Wake, And Hurried Forward With A Lumpy Skip. Unaccountably, This Gesture Upset Her Afresh. A Storm Of Sorrow Seized Her And Her Mother Could Not Console Her.
