Top Highlights

  • I have heard it said that a complicated childhood can lead to a life in the arts. I tell you this story of my father and me to let you know I am qualified to be a comedian.
  • teaching is, after all, a form of show business.
  • even the study of modern philosophy suggested that philosophy was nonsense.
  • Wittgenstein’s investigations disallowed so many types of philosophical discussions that we were convinced the very discussion we were having was impossible. Soon I felt that a career in the irrational world of creativity not only made sense but had moral purpose.
  • Were they beautiful? We were all beautiful. We were in our twenties.
