As You Like It, Act II Sc. 7
JAQUES
O worthy fool!
...in his brain,
Which is as dry as the remainder biscuit
After a voyage, he hath strange places cramm'd
With observation, the which he vents
In mangled forms. O that I were a fool!
I am ambitious for a motley coat.
I'm in the process of finishing a Neil Gaiman book that I just don't like. Neverwhere has some lovely imagery, but the characters are tiresome, the writing lacks subtlety, many plot elements and character reactions are trite, more than one major character lacks any clear motivation, and it just drags on...and on...and on....

Exactly my response to Neverwhere. I've read short stories of his that I really liked but this was a real disappointment.
