Denis Johnson Quote

Cherry Loot told Sergeant Burke, I’m gonna make the best of this fuck-a-monkey show. Don’t mean fuck to me if it’s illegal, unjustified, and sinful. Today we’re heroes, tomorrow we’re the Nazis. You never know. Nobody on this ball knows shit. It was an attitude refreshing if not outright inspiring.
