Books by Will Lillibridge

""You're cold-blooded as a fish, Roberts, colder. You're-There is no adequate simile."The man addressed said nothing."You degrade every consideration in life, emotional and other, to a dollar-and-cents basis. Sentiment, ambition, common judgment of right and wrong, all gravitate to the same level. You have a single standard of measurement that you apply to all alike, which alike condemns or justifies. Summer and Winter, morning, noon, and night-it's the same. Your little yardstick is always in evidence, measuring, measuring-You, confound you, drive me to distraction with your eternal 'does it pay.'""
