“I'm the guy who keeps it all going. If I weren't here, you wouldn't be here either.”
Sign on the booth of "the big fellow" of Kentron-Kosmon, Atlas, in Ch. 3
Space Chantey (1968)
Context: I'm the guy who keeps it all going. If I weren't here, you wouldn't be here either. I know it all, I'm a smart-aleck. Loan-sharking and fencing. Any time I can't see you, you've had it.
