Quotes by Andy Abramowitz (?)

“The Edinburgh Castle was incredible, wasn’t it?” she said. His face went hazy. “I don’t really remember a castle. But I was there a long time ago. Maybe it wasn’t built yet?” Possibly, she was tempted to say. The castle was built in 1280. When were you there?”
― Andy Abramowitz, A Beginner's Guide to Free Fall
