Quotations
2004, The President held his head slightly cocked and low to his shoulders, and his expressions kept shifting, in increments of wincing aggravationâ��lips drawn tight and downward, nostrils flaring and flattening, eyebrows wrigglingâ��through a range of attitudes: impatience, boredom, indignation, sourness, imperiousness, contempt. This unhappy twitchiness persisted through the evening. — The New Yorker, 18 Oct 2004
