UNCLE Quote of the Week

Being as Sergio thinks he’s soooo funny – a comedian no less – I feel duty bound (I’ve taken the UNCLE oath after all!) to respond in kind, and hopefully snap him out of his sadly deluded thinking....

Illya Kuryakin: Humour is the gadfly on the corpse of tragedy.
Napoleon Solo: Who said that? Pushkin?
Illya Kuryakin: My grandmother!

(The Pieces of Fate Affair)

Don’t know if this quote is word perfect – I nicked this Illya-ism from an excellent MFU tribute page (www.manfromuncle.org/bioillya.htm) as I didn’t have time to look it up.
