I like clever, creative people.
But I am not so keen on jealous ones.
Or those that try to put other people down.
So I really do like what Joseph Heller has been heard to say to the occasional slimy, smirking journalist.
Impolite and disrespectful journalists that are looking to make a name for themselves.
Heller – politely – silences them.
With just two words.
Journalist:
So; Mr. Heller. Why is it that you have never written anything as good as your acclaimed novel ‘Catch 22’?
After a suitable pause.
Heller:
Who has?
Perfect.
