“When Lee Marvin asks if you want two lumps with your coffee, he's not talking about sugar.”

I found this quote on Google Images, ascribed to a blog called Ruthless Reviews, about Marvin’s character in The Big Heat. Yet when I went there, the quote was nowhere to be found. And when I Googled under the quote, Google told me—wrongly, since I’d found it via Google!—there was no such quote.

    I was pretty good at handing out lumps when I worked concert security in Chicago back in the 80s and 90s. Matter of fact, we had a saying, "If in doubt, knock out." LOL
