Quotes by John Shea

“On going to hell….
“When I think of judgment day, I get emotional. It’s a heavy thing. I did what I did and there’s no erasing it. I can write an honest book, be an honest man, help little old ladies across the street but what’s done is done. There’s no escaping that. Whatever it is, I’ll do my time, even for eternity.”
― John Shea, Rat Bastards: The South Boston Irish Mobster Who Took the Rap When Everyone Else Ran
