Book Intros
"With my pretentious quote,
I do clearly state,
that I am a twat."
The Story of Poo, Dave Bobbins, 1972
Why on earth does every book feel the need to have quotes at the start from other books? And some do it every chapter! If I wanted to read them, I wouldn't have bought the book I've bought, I'd have bought the one the quotes are from..
It's not like at the start of an Oasis song, they give a quick blast of a verse from a Verve track, is it? So why do the book people feel the need to do it?
Enough already!
