Anansi-boys Quote by Neil Gaiman
““You aren't scared of limes, are you?" asked Charlie. The creature laughed, scornfully. "I," it said, "am frightened of nothing." "Nothing?" "Nothing," it said. Charlie said, "Are you extremely frightened of nothing?" "Absolutely terrified of it," admitted the Dragon. "You know," said Charlie, "I have nothing in my pockets. Would you like to see it?" "No," said the Dragon uncomfortably, "I most definitely would not.””
