From today's Writer's Almanac. I've never read any of his books, but this description is one of the best I've ever heard:

He described one character as "a tubby little chap who looked as if he had been poured into his clothes and had forgotten to say 'when!'"

Another one: "He felt like a man who, chasing rainbows, has had one of them suddenly turn and bite him in the leg."

I love Wodehouse. His books are fun, as are these quotes.

Oh, you MUST read Wodehouse. You will find yourself giggling out loud in public.
