"When he's good, he's very, very good, but when he's bad he's awful."
to paraphrase someone or other.
EDIT: I discover that it's Longfellow:
"There was a little girl, who had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead,
And when she was good, she was very, very good,
But when she was bad she was horrid."
I find some of Anthony's books rather disturbing - and not in a "good" sense.
