Princeton symposium
"Deep Beauty"
1. From my childhood:
"You remind me of a man."
"What man?"
"The man with the power."
"What power?"
"The power of hoodoo."
"Hoodoo?"
"You do."
"Do what?
"Remind me of a man…."
— Dialogue from
"The Bachelor and the
Bobby-Soxer" (1947)
2. From later years:
"When I was a little boy,
(when I was just a boy)
and the Devil would
call my name
(when I was just a boy)
I'd say 'now who do,
who do you think
you're fooling?'"
"At times, bullshit can
only be countered
with superior bullshit."
— Norman Mailer

More from Rhymin' Simon–
"Oh, my mama loves,
she loves me,
she get down on her knees
and hug me
like she loves me
like a rock.
She rocks me
like the rock of ages"
