A Code of Honor: Never approach a friend's girlfriend or wife with mischief as your goal. There are just too many women in the world to justify that sort of dishonorable behavior. Unless she's really attractive.

I have already given two cousins to the war and I stand ready to sacrifice my wife's brother.
I go into Daunt Books in Marylebone every couple of weeks. My wife Sara demolishes books, but I only buy stuff occasionally. I like boys' things, spies and the Cold War.

Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.
I choose my friends for their good looks, my acquaintances for their good characters, and my enemies for their good intellects.
