John Fante Quotes

The Bartender Put A Notepad And A Pencil Before Me. Breathing Hard, The Pencil Trembling, I Wrote:
Dear Sinclair Lewis:
You Were Once A God, But Now You Are A Swine. I Once Reverenced You, Admired You, And Now You Are Nothing. I Came To Shake Your Hand In Adoration, You, Lewis, A Giant Among American Writers, And You Rejected It. I Swear I Shall Never Read Another Line Of Yours Again. You Are An Ill-mannered Boor. You Have Betrayed Me. I Shall Tell H. L. Muller About You, And How You Have Shamed Me. I Shall Tell The World.
Arturo Bandini
P.S. I Hope You Choke On Your Steak.
