| First words |

| Quotations |
Saul Enderby: Oh, that reminds me, George. Did you twist that young fellow Mostyn's tail, by any chance?
George Smiley: Whatever do you mean?
Saul Enderby: Yes, I thought so. That's why I sacked him. Tried to sell him to the BBC, but they wouldn't have him. What's he up to now, Strickland?
Lauder Strickland: He's in retreat, sir. Joined an order of Franciscan monks near Ipswich.
Saul Enderby: Ipswich, eh? Cold bloody spot to pray. At the present rate of inflation, blackmail's about the only thing that keeps its value. | |
