raymond chandler quotes

raymond chandler (1888-1959) was the creator of philip marlowe, the iconic private detective. not jokes, but here are some quotes from his brilliant stories:

1. she approached me with enough sex appeal to stampede a businessmen's lunch.

2. i could see, even on that short acquaintance, that thinking was always going to be a bother to her.

3. i called him from a phone booth. the voice that answered was fat. it wheezed softly, like the voice of a man who had just won a pie-eating contest.

4. the general spoke again, slowly, using his strength as carefully as an out-of-work show-girl uses her last good pair of stockings.

5. even on central avenue, not the quietest dressed street in the world, he looked about as inconspicuous as a tarantula on a slice of angel food.

6. we sneered at each other across the desk for a moment. he sneered better than i did.

7. i used my knee on his face. it hurt my knee. he didn't tell me whether it hurt his face.

8. he had a battered face that looked as if had been hit by everything but the bucket of a drag-line. it was scarred, flattened, thickened, chequered and welted. it was a face that had nothing to fear. everything had been done to it that anybody could think of.

9. the voice got as cool as a cafeteria dinner.

10. it was a blonde. a blonde to make a bishop kick a hole in a stained glass window.
