Quote for the day

"…what qualities I considered absolutely essential and basic in a lovable woman… A good mind, of course; high cheekbones, clear eyes, a long neck, slender wrists, beautiful hands, impeccable ankles, and, deep down somewhere, only known to me, an unmistakeable streak of whorishness. May heaven preserve me from ever going to bed with a righteous female. Take my word for it, when a doll thinks she’s got the holy grail under her skirts, she’ll finish you off faster than heart failure in a typhoon."
from May This House Be Safe From Tigers by Alexander King
