And if you're on the outside, you become part of that amorphous entity, a 'damn fine staff.'... Robert Ludlum

Robert Ludlum quote: "Well, let me tell you, gentlemen, the games of the devil are..."
Well, let me tell you, gentlemen, the games of the devil are not restricted to those confined to hell. Others can play them. Robert Ludlum
