Frostquake Quotes

“The following morning as the waxy bodies of seven former ministers were carried out horizontally through the back door of Madame Tussauds, the most obvious casualty was Macmillan’s chief supporter Selwyn Lloyd.

― Juliet Nicolson, Frostquake: The Frozen Winter of 1962 and how Britain Emerged a Different Country
