Hotter than the surface of the sun

Great quote about LA from 1939 John Fante novel "Ask the Dust"

"You'll eat hamburgers year after year and live in dusty vermin-infested apartments and hotels, but every morning you'll see the mighty sun, the eternal blue of the sky, and the streets frull of sleek women you never will possess, and the hot semi-tropical nights will reek of romance you'll never have, but you'll still be in paradise, boys, in the land of sunshine."
