I couldn't let it rest, I was kind of sure that something so profound was thought and spoken before. So here is a finding that other might find equally interesting: https://genius.com/Kurt-vonnegut-joe-heller-annotated Kurt Vonnegut: True story, Word of Honor: Joseph Heller, an important and funny writer now dead, and I were at a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island.
I said, "Joe, how does it make you feel to know that our host only yesterday may have made more money than your novel 'Catch-22' has earned in its entire history?" And Joe said, "I've got something he can never have." And I said, "What on earth could that be, Joe?" And Joe said, "The knowledge that I've got enough." Not bad! Rest in peace! |
