Nice old ladies
poison whole families.
Clean-cut kidspoison whole families.
commit multiple holdups and shootings.
Bank managers with spotless records going back
twenty years
are found out to be long-term embezzlers.
And successful and popular and supposedly
happy novelists
get drunk and put their wives in the hospital.
We know damn little about what makes
even our best friends tick.
Raymond Chandler
The Long Goodbye
1953
