Samuel Spade's jaw was long and bony, his chin a jutting v under the more flexible v of his mouth. His nostrils curved back to make another, smaller v. His yellow-grey eyes were horizontal.

He looked rather pleasantly like a blonde Satan. View quote

Still, I felt like somebody was poking my heart with a cold metal rod. View quote
