“Soon it was difficult not to feel that theirs was, after all, a mission for God. Surely, in His wisdom and mercy, He would protect them from despair, physical danger and, perhaps most miraculous of all, arrest for moving traffic violations.”

–Pg. 55 from The Blues Brothers movie novelization by Miami Mitch Glazer.

(Happy Birthday, Elwood!)
