Is it just me?

To my family I read out a quote from Tibor Fischer's Voyage to the End of the Room. He's describing an overweight character:

'He was the last known address of thousands of samosas.'

I crease up at that line and wish I'd written it - I might do one day - but others in my family, while agreeing it is mildly funny, don't see why I think it is brilliant.

Anyone else wish they'd written something similar?

Just about every line ever written by Emily Dickinson.

Fabulous line.

Okay it's not from a book but I love Tom Petty's 'Into the great wide open' and the killer line  'A rebel without a clue.'

One of the Flashman books has a line something like this:

"I've always been captivated by the finer aspects of the feminine form - like the size of women's tits."

Being of the male persuasion, that always makes me snicker like a schoolboy.
