A City No Worse


           People were hungry, sick, bored, desperate with loneliness or remorse or fear, angry, cruel, feverish, shaken with sobs. A city no worse than others, a city rich and vigorous and full of pride, a city lost and beaten and full of emptiness.

Raymond Chandler
The Long Goodbye
1953
