Being There1979

Ron Steigler:
Mr. Gardner, uh, my editors and I have been wondering if you would consider writing a book for us, something about your um, political philosophy, what do you say?

Chance the Gardener:
I can't write.

Ron Steigler:
Heh, heh, of course not, who can nowadays? Listen, I have trouble writing a postcard to my children. Look uhh, we can give you a six figure advance, I've provide you with the very best ghost-writer, proof-readers...

Chance the Gardener:
I can't read.

Ron Steigler:
Of course you can't! No one has the time! We, we glance at things, we watch television...

Chance the Gardener:
I like to watch TV.

Ron Steigler:
Oh, oh, oh sure you do. No one reads!
