Quotes by Mark Wilson (?)

“from the head honcho to the person who scraped shit from the toilets. He always saw the individual person rather than the job. There were only two types of people that mattered for Tom. Good guys and wanks. That was the only measure he took of anyone.”
― Mark Wilson, Bobby's Boy
