Quote from Sally in The Fifth Solomon
George: All right. Your total is $4,955. Tommy: What? $4,955? George: There was significant damage. Sally: Well, I think if we try really hard, we can get this number down just a little bit. Look at this: "replace crankshaft"? Do we really need that? George: If you want the car to go. Tommy: Okay, but right here, uh, "new brake lines front and rear." Can't we just go with one or the other? George: Not if you want the car to stop.
