Executed Quotes (page 9)

Tough luck, folks, I know the law: you can't execute me twicefor the same thing. How nice. I fell to the clover, breathed it in, and bared my teeth at themin a filthy grin. You can imagine how that went over. Now I only need to lookout at them through my sky-blue eyes. They see their own ill willstaring then in the foreheadand turn tail. Before, I was not a...

As I understand it, a born executive is a guy who, when anything difficult or unexpected happens, yells for somebody to come and help him. Rex Stout
