Fr Tim Finigan has posted a link to this interview with Evelyn Waugh on his blog. It's full of wonderful one-liners, mainly because he seems to go out of his way to avoid two-line answers. The only time he really gets carried away is when talking about Helena and the True Cross.
I particularly enjoyed his answers about Oxford.
When asked why he chose to go to Hertford College, he replied: "They paid me."
When asked why he got a bad Third he gave an even briefer answer: "Sloth."
"What did you do at Oxford?" the interviewer asked.
"Enjoyed myself," he replied.
