Fred Allen

Interesting quote from radio comedian Fred Allen, "There are many things in life that are more important than money. And they all cost money." Not true, but scary how true it sounds. He has some other interesting quotes

"A committee is a group of the unprepared, appointed by the unwilling to do the unnecessary."

"A celebrity is a person who works hard all his life to become well known, then wears dark glasses to avoid being recognized."

Sometimes we need to dis-engage from the world to notice its absurdities, an approach mastered by stand-up comedians. Its easy to make fun of ourself and the world around, when we get out.
