“The man in the mackinaw didn’t know Sonny, but he’d already decided Sonny was a stand-up guy. And it had nothing to do with his appearance, or his manner, or his reputation. It had everything to do with his money. It was a wonderful thing, Sonny thought; he’d recommend it to anyone who could swing it. Money can make an ugly woman presentable, a fat man thin, a moron a wit. And rumor had it that it made the world go around.”
Brad Smith, “All Hat”, 2003, Penguin Canada
