The Observing Eye is a collection of Muriel Spark's brilliant asides, sayings, and aphorisms. No other writer can hold a candle to her wry, puckish observations:

  • 'Neurotics are awfully quick to notice other people's mentalities.'
  • 'It is impossible to persuade a man who does not disagree, but smiles.'
  • 'The sacrifice of pleasure is of course itself a pleasure.'
  • 'Be on the alert to recognize your prime at whatever time in your life it may occur.'
  • 'Ridicule is the only honourable weapon we have left.'

Spark's striking insights are precise and unforgettable - they will make you laugh and nod in agreement, with a wicked smile on your face. Her wise words never fail to hit exactly the right note.
