Description
A Good Comb, a small selection of brilliant advice, asides, sayings, and aphorisms, celebrates the immortal Muriel Spark's hundredth birthday. Enjoy her lively, pointed, puckish insights: "Neurotics are awfully quick to notice other people's mentalities." "It is impossible to persuade a man who does not disagree, but smiles." "The sacrifice of pleasure is of course itself a pleasure." "It is impossible to repent of love. The sin of love does not exist." "She wasn't a person to whom things happen." "You look for one thing and you find another." "It calms you down, a good comb.""--Page 4 of cover.
