Sorry, I misquoted, I couldnt remember it exactly. I blame lack of sleep and
far too much caffeine. I seem to remeber that the quote comes from his
election campaign trail writings, but I could be wrong
"The industry is but a shallow money trench where theives and pimps run free
and weak men die like dogs"
- Hunter S. Thompson
Thats how I remember it.
A quick websearch finds many other misquotes, the best of them:
"The music buisness is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic
hallway where theives and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs.
There's also a negative side" - Hunter S. Thompson ?
"Show Business... is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long dark plastic
hallway where theives, pimps, and whores run free and most good or weak men
die like dogs!" - REVEREND IKE ?
"The TV business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway
where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs"
