Famous quotes containing the words chicago and/or fire:

    “You want to get Capone? Here’s how you get him: he pulls a knife, you pull a gun, he sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. It’s the Chicago way and that’s how you get Capone.”
    —David Mamet, U.S. screenwriter, and Brian DePalma. Jimmy Malone (Sean Connery)

    “In England if something goes wrong—say, if one finds a skunk in the garden—he writes to the family solicitor, who proceeds to take the proper measures; whereas in America, you telephone the fire department. Each satisfies a characteristic need; in the English, love of order and legalistic procedure; and here in America, what you like is something vivid, and red, and swift.”
    —Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947)
