The 13 Lives of a Television Repair Man Quotes

“People always wanted to know what had caused this or that thing; always wanted to be given the reason. No explanation would do, but they wanted one anyhow, and would badger you until you’d invented one for them.”
― M.D. Thalmann, The 13 Lives of a Television Repair Man

“People are stupid, but oh can they talk. And when idiots talk, others will come from miles away in order that they may listen. This is the preferred method of reproduction for idiots. One idiot says something stupid, and someone else hears it. The thing that is said to them is utterly ludicrous buffoonery, but still they listen. After a while, it makes that person stupid as well, and he can’t wait to go tell everyone how stupid he is now.”
― M.D. Thalmann, The 13 Lives of a Television Repair Man
