  One of the characteristics which many people would hesitate to ascribe to the Civil Service is the ability to be brief. But as the quotations in this book show, it is possible to be amusing when describing the administrative class. Gathered from all over the world, and from every age, these quotations provide a wry insight into the workings of the bureaucratic mind.
