Shaft's Big Score Quotes

“There were more angles to this thing than a stained-glass window of The Battle of Hastings.”
― Ernest Tidyman , Shaft's Big Score

“Shaft was standing next to a newstsand about thirty yards from the Con Ed crew when Kelly came out of the red-brick highrise, the glossy haven of the spade who's made it. It rose like an insult to all the failure around it, a fifteen-story middle finger that said up yours to the old neighborhood.”
― Ernest Tidyman, Shaft's Big Score
