Art Buchwald, October 20, 1925 - January 17, 2007
Whether it's the best of times or the worst of times, it's the only time we've got.
You can't make up anything anymore. The world itself is a satire. All you're doing is recording it.
We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia, and everyone seems to think yesterday was better than today. I don't think it was, and I would advise you not to wait ten years before admitting today was great. If you're hung up on nostalgia, pretend today is yesterday and just go out and have one hell of a time.
I don't know what's coming next and neither does anyone else. It's something that we do have to face but the thing is that a lot of people don't want to face it. And there's denial. If somebody says it, like me, everybody feels a little better that they can discuss it.
