“[Charlie] Moon was trying hard to get a handle on this. Maybe he's got a PhD. What with pass-fail replacing conventional grading, Internet diploma mills, and who knows what other academic innovations that has been driving the dumbing-down in American education, you couldn't tell who might have a sheepskin tucked away in his hip pocket.”
James D. Doss, Three Sisters

“The clever old conniver continued to cogitate.”
James D. Doss

“Two heads are twice as good as half as many.”
James D. Doss, Coffin Man
