How we cite our quotes: (Part.Chapter.Paragraph)

Quote #7

In the aftermath Weeks found Bulger "euphoric" and unable to talk about anything else for days. (2.10.51)

The fact that Bulger enters a state of bliss after brutally murdering Brian Halloran settles the debate once and for all. Bulger doesn't just use violence—he loves it. He's a legit monster.

Quote #8

Morris, his wine nearby but clearly sober, said, "You can do anything you want as long as you don't clip anyone." (2.13.43)

Yeah, we're sure asking him nicely will work great, Morris. Seems to have turned out swell the past few decades. By now, Bulger has taken the driver's seat in their relationship, and he's not handing back the wheel anytime soon.

Quote #9

Connolly was unmoved. "But he's a good guy." Besides, he said, the dead man was "a piece of shit." (2.15.55)

Although Connolly isn't referring to Bulger here, this might help us understand how he so casually helps Bulger murder several men. Moral superiority is one heck of a drug.
