Glen Duncan Quotes

She Had Something Adam Didn't. Curiosity. First Step To Growth
And If It Wasn't For Eve's Adam Would Still Be Sitting By The Side Of The Pool Picking His Nose And Scratching His Scalp, Bamboozled By His Own Reflection. Off In Her Part Of Eden, Eve Hadn't Bothered Naming The Animals. On The Other Hand She'd Discovered How To Milk Some Of Them And How Best To Eat The Eggs Of Others. She'd Decided She Wasn't Overly Keen On Torrential Rain And Had Built A Shelter From Bamboo And Banana Leaves, Into Which She'd Retire When The Heavens Opened, Having Set Out Coconut Shells To Catch The Rainwater With A View To Saving Herself The Schlep Down To The Spring Every Time She Wanted A Drink. The Only Thing You Won't Be Surprised To Hear About Is That She'd Already Domesticated A Cat And Called It Misty.
