MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“I apologize for not being entirely honest with you. I apologize for not revealing my true feelings. I apologize, sir, for not telling you sooner that you're a degenerate, sadistic old man. And you can go to hell before I apologize to you now or ever again!”
Kirk Douglas in Paths of Glory

Anyway got these 3 anthologies (11 individual novels) for a song - especially the Jim Thompson book that is normally
