Quotes by James Wallis  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“In the final round of the game, if your company has admitted women to the play, I do not recommend that you vote for your paramour, or for the member of the company who has taken your fancy. In my experience it rarely leads to success; and your fellows will notice and make fun of your noble gesture for weeks.”
― James Wallis, The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen

“Someone went “Uh!” and someone else went “Ah,” and he didn’t know if either of them had a Tilean accent.”
― James Wallis, Marks of Chaos
