精彩摘录
- "It's only after a bit of breakfast that I'm able to regard the world with that sunny cheeriness which makes a fellow the universal favourite. I'm never much of a lad till I've engulfed an egg or two and a beaker of coffee."
- "If you see a man asking for trouble, and insisting on getting it, the only thing to do is to stand by and wait till it comes to him. After that you may get a chance. But till then there's nothing to be done."
- "For the first time in our long connection I observed Jeeves almost smile. The corner of his mouth curved quite a quarter of an inch, and for a moment his eye ceased to look like a meditative fish's."

想要一个Jeeves
"it's brain," i said; "pure brain! What do you do to get like that, Jeeves? I believe you must eat a lot of fish, or something. Do you eat a lot of fish, Jeeves?" 然后J轻描淡写地回答一句：No, sir. Jealous呀（突然想到猫儿聪明的原因跟常吃鱼有关嘛~哈哈哈）最有趣的地方之一是每次Wooster挑了些花里花俏的穿着饰品时，Jeeves那painful的眼神以及双方不肯推让下的持续小冷战。当然J始终向着咱们这个young master的，而young master也很会知恩图报，一挥手听你的，J便感激不尽地处决那眼中钉~
朗读者：Martin Jarvis；四星。比起美国朗读者，英国朗读者就是戏精（褒义），而Martin Jarvis是戏精里的戏精。不过可能每个人的喉咙、声带什么的毕竟是有限的，有几个叙述者的声音听起来就差不多。
【藏书阁打卡】跟姐姐拷了《万能管家》（Jeeves and Wooster)的视频很久了，第三学期不再忙死所以终于看了，一口气看了六季。意犹未尽。看译本的试读章节，违和感太强，所以只好找原著来看看（英文不太好的我觉得，这是我唯几读得很愉悦的英文书），原来是融合了好些不同的人物的故事拍出来的。小说挺好的，篇幅或许也受限于报纸或杂志给的空间吧，情节不会过度曲折，与电视剧相比，就会觉得电视有时情节弄得略繁复了，或许是为了拍满50分钟每集不得已吧。继续龟速读另一本“Right Ho, Jeeves”。
If you ignore his advice and fail to take his emotion into account, Jeeves is bound to get his own back deliberately and give you the pip subtly rather than directly losing his temper as well as cutting up rough. However, it is unnecessary for you to get worried when getting stuck in trouble, because Jeeves appears to rally round you at stake.
最后一篇看得太过瘾了，完全脑补电视剧里两个人的眉眼和语气！中间一半的短篇看着有点云里雾里，好些古旧俗语不查字典也吃不准意思。所以其实看电视剧就够啦，这个系列可以放下了（其实当初是在书店被该系列一大排有趣书面吸引的）
有点可爱呀😂 好欢乐
no...........
心情低落的时候读伍德豪斯有奇效，don't you know。他那些出其不意又极具画面感的夸张描述和字里行间弥漫着的 wit 每次都能 buck me up.
