Paul Levine Quote
John D. MacDonald, my favorite Florida writer—yeah, I read a bit—once began a book: There are no hundred percent heroes. If you ask my customers, they’d probably give me 51 percent. MacDonald also wrote, If the cards are stacked against you, reshuffle the deck. Well, I’m tired of holding a pair of deuces or a busted flush. Tired of the grind. Tired of losing. Which is why on this sweaty July day with a sky as gray as an angry ocean, I needed an innocent client.
