Esimerkit

And yet the one is as good as the other: pass for pass, tit for tat, a Roland for an Oliver.
- I had to bite my lip to prevent myself from laughing. What he said had a hateful truth in it, and another defect of my character is that I enjoy the company of those, however depraved, who can give me a Roland for my Oliver.
