Zitat des Tages von Rube Goldberg:
And, uh, I've got about six thousand cartoons up there, also books and papers.
And, uh, I did that, and there was nothing more ridiculous to me than finding the weight of the earth because I didn't care how much the earth weighed.
Uh, I just had an operation last March which was rather serious and I'm recuperating now. I'm on a very bland diet. But, uh, I'm lucky, I was just lucky, that's all.
When I did sports cartoons, I used to uh, go to fights.
And I, uh, I wonder how anybody can think his personality changes with his success. I've had quite a bit of success but I feel that I'm just the same person as I always was.
I, I don't think anybody's continually happy, uh, except idiots, you know. You know, you have to have little moments of depression.
It just happened that the public happened to, uh, appreciate the satirical quality of these crazy things.
And uh, I'm glad that I still have my hands and my eyes to work with.
And during my college, at the end of the junior year I worked in a mine.
I didn't have any real art training, but when I was about twelve nad thirteen, another boy and I went to a sign painter's house every Friday night and took lessons.
I didn't write because in the corps I took mining engineering of all things and, you know, they, they graduate a mining engineer as a sort of an illiterate.
Yeah, yeah. I, I don't think I'm always right. But I don't think young people are always right, either.
