And how I despise the average citizen, who settles himself down upon one tiny spot of land with one asinine woman, to breed and stew and rot in that condition unto his life’s end. And always with the same woman! I simply cannot believe that any man in his senses would put up with just one female day after day and year after year. Some of them, of course, don’t. But millions pretend they do.

– The Visitor in The Best of Roald Dahl P. 294-295

Needless to say we completely agree with Dahl’s sentiments concerning the distaff sex. 😉

By the way, The Visitor is another fine story by Dahl.

Highly recommended, guys.
