Every man is a borrower and a mimic, life is theatrical and literature a quotation.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
There was this guy that showed up at Max’s in Kansas City with his arm in a sling. Everyone was like, “What happened to you?”
He said, “Oh, I took a hit of speed and I couldn’t stop brushing my hair for three days.”
