From the moment they lay eyes on you their little brains are scheming how to get the better of you. A back turned is a back stabbed.

Additional quotes by J. P. Donleavy
To a blonde tweedy lady I had to administer a few I beg your pardons before she would await her turn. When a red nosed tinkerish looking Jarvey with a rather scrawny mare pulled up.

But they nodded in eight directions and looked up at the sky in four more as if asking every saint in heaven for assistance and then urged me with their country voices to take the horsecab.
"Ah, it's soon enough later for the likes of us."
