Joan Didion Quoted Someone Else About ... Betting Odds

________________________________________________________________________________________________

If you’re capable of being
glib and verbal,
the odds are you have
no idea what you’re talking about
but it sounds good,
whereas if you know
a great deal of what you’re saying
the odds are you can’t get
on a talk show because
nobody can understand you

***


quoted by Joan Didion
in
POLITICAL FICTIONS
