Resolved
Let your remarks be of your own invention. Don’t
say it’s a hot day to the ice cream man. Don’t say I
like pie. Everybody likes pie. Don’t say it’s a cold
world. Everybody says that and it isn’t true
anyway. Say something entirely new. Say
something worthwhile. And the world will pay
real money to hear it.
-- Rob Reiner
