"As we waited for shots to be set up, Bill [Clark] urged Keith [Ng] to tell me about some cases he'd worked, which Keith did with the exact mannerisms and intonations of a New York detective, but in speech so heavily Chinese-accented the only words I was sure I understood were obscenities."
-True Blue: The Real Stories Behind NYPD Blue, by David Milch and Bill Clark
(This was actually the second-closest book; the closest book was Mo Willems' You Can Never Find a Rickshaw When It Monsoons, a collection of cartoons he made while trekking around the globe in 1990. The majority of pages only had a one-line explanation of the cartoon, page 56 included.)
