He has talked for hours and hours, and still he does not tire. He was an executive with Lincoln Savings and Loan and then moved over to the parent company, American Continental Corporation. Now it is the spring of 1992, and all that is behind him - except for the long reach of the law. So far, he has beaten them. They have not touched him, not a bit. Oh, sure, he's had to sign agreements, make paybacks from all those good deals. And no one is paying him a couple of hundred thousand dollars a year now. But he is not criminally charged, he is not facing prison. And he is still young, he has a lot more tickets to ride, and this is plainly written in his eyes.
- From Trust Me: Charles Keating and the Missing Billions by Michael Binstein and Charles Bowden
