“A man of strong tastes with a passion for jokes, [Sir Edwin Lutyens'] pet hates included long-stemmed glasses, fish-knives, cut flowers, silk lampshades, pile carpets, the seaside, statistics, painted nails, the diagonal placing of furniture—and, of course, religious enthusiasm.” — Peter Washington, Madame Blavatsky's Baboon
