“My, my, my! Such a lot of guns around town and so few brains! You know, you’re the second guy I’ve met today that seems to think a gat in the hand means the world by the tail.”

– Philip Marlowe (Humphrey Bogart), The Big Sleep (1946), screenplay by William Faulkner and Leigh Brackett and Jules Furthman, based on the novel by Raymond Chandler
