I had none to give.
Nor did I have any money
or food in my pockets.
So I gave him a quote
from Franz Kafka:
I write differently from what I speak,
I speak differently from what I think,
I think differently from the way I ought to think,
and so it all proceeds into deepest darkness.
He said "Thanks for blackening my morning.
Do you know any Yogi Berra quotes."
As a matter of fact, I did.
Yogi Berra–baseball Hall of Famer/philosopher/sage–
celebrated his 90th birthday on Tuesday, May 12.
When asked how it felt
to be ninety, Yogi said:
 | |
| Happy Birthday, Mr. Berra. Yogi has more World Series rings than anyone who has ever played baseball. And the next Kafka page is here. |
Being ninety is exactly the same
as being eighty-nine
except you are
a year older.
