“In fact, I was shortly to be chosen for my first tour to New Zealand. Again, I had Javed, now restored to captaincy, to thank. I was immediately anxious. I could not drive. I had neither money of my own nor even a bank account. I rang Javed and asked him how much it would cost me to go on the tour; he replied deadpan: "100,000 rupees."
My heart sank. 'Javed bhai, my dad would never give me that amount of money,' I said gloomily. 'I'm sorry. I won't be able to come.'
Javed burst out laughing. 'You idiot!' he said. 'You don't have to pay; you get paid.'
I couldn't believe it. 'I get paid?' I said. 'To play for Pakistan? Unbelievable!”

another person's angle of attack.”
― The Sittaford Mystery

“the average Vogon will not think twice before doing something so pointlessly hideous to you that you will wish you had never been born—or (if you are a clearer minded thinker) that the Vogon had never been born.”
