P.G. Wodehouse Quotes

The Medicine-man, Having Given Him The Once-over, Had Ordered Him To Abstain From All Alcoholic Liquids, And In Addition To Tool Down The Hill To The Royal Pump-Room Each Morning At Eight-thirty And Imbibe Twelve Ounces Of Warm Crescent Saline And Magnesia. It Doesn't Sound Much, Put That Way, But I Gather From Contemporary Accounts That It's Practically Equivalent To Getting Outside A Couple Of Little Old Last Year's Eggs Beaten Up In Sea-water. And The Thought Of Uncle George, Who Had Oppressed Me Sorely In My Childhood, Sucking Down That Stuff And Having To Hop Out Of Bed At Eight-fifteen To Do So Was Extremely Grateful And Comforting Of A Morning.
At Four In The Afternoon He Would Toddle Down The Hill Again And Repeat The Process, And At Night We Would Dine Together And I Would Loll Back In My Chair, Sipping My Wine, And Listen To Him Telling Me What The Stuff Had Tasted Like. In Many Ways The Ideal Existence.
