About This Quote

Konig couldn't help but think of the man as a slab of walking muscle with all the intellect of a pair of cheap shoes. When he saw the hulking, hirsute figure move out onto the patio, Konig was struck by his gait. He looked like he was tromping through waist-deep mud, only his feet never touched it. The way he moved seemed to emanate raw power, but it was clearly an act, an illusion. His movements were smooth, his posture perfect, his hands never straying far from his pockets or resting on his belt buckle.
