Gombrowicz


I see that he is fobbing me off with Cashes, and not just cashes but Small Coins! At such an Insult to me the blood rushes to my head, but naught say I. Presently I do say: "I see that for you, Your Excellency, very small I must be since you, Your Excellency, thus fob me off with Small Coins and belike number me with Ten Thousand Writers and I am not just a writer but Gombrowicz!"

--Witold Gombrowicz, Trans-Atlantyk, translated by Carolyn French and Nina Karsov (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1994, 12-13).
