Quotes

• “The important thing to know about an assassination or an attempted assassination is not who fired the shot, but who paid for the bullet.”
• “"Let us hope the bad times are ended for good," [said Mr. Tan.]"Good business for one is good business for all," said Girija."Very true." Now, Mr. Tan decided, they were coming to the point. Reference to mutual advantage was the accepted preliminary to a squeeze.”
• “Hallett drew a deep breath. "Mr. Nilson," he said, "I wish you could tell me something. Why is it that when an apparently normal, intelligent, law-abiding citizen like you gets hold of a passport and a steamship ticket, he suddenly turns into a juvenile--""Okay, Mr. Hallett," Greg broke in irritably. "You can't say anything I haven't already said to myself."”
• “It came down to this: if I hadn't been arrested by the Turkish police, I would have been arrested by the Greek police. I had no choice but to do what this man Harper told me. He was entirely responsible for what happened to me.”
• “In my experience, most people are extraordinarily careless about the way they look after traveler's checks. Just because their counter-signature is required before a check can be cashed, they assume that only they can negotiate it. Yet anyone with eyes in his head can copy the original signature. [...] People who leave traveler's checks lying around deserve to lose them.”
• “Never tell a lie when you can bullshit your way through.”
