#Rejtő Jenő was a #hungarian #writer probably being one of those with the greatest openings of their #novels. The most famous:
- Sir, I have come for my knife!
- Where did you leave it?
- In some sailor's possession.
- What kind of knife was it?
- Steel. Narrow blade, slightly curved. Haven't you seen it?
- Now, now... Slowly, please... What was the handle like?
- Shell.
- In how many pieces?
- It was made in one piece.
- Then there's no need to worry! I have the knife!
- Where?
- In my back.
