quotes by L. Sprague de Camp

""No," the head aquarist had said. "The feeling does you credit, Vernon, but Hempl wouldn't do. He's a good subordinate, but has no more initiative than a lamellibranch. And he'd never sit up all night nursing a sick octopus the way you would.""
— L. Sprague de Camp (The Best of L. Sprague De Camp)
