Joseph Heller Quote
Now, where were we? Read me back the last line. ‘Read me back the last line,’ read back the corporal who could take shorthand. Not my last line, stupid! the colonel shouted. Somebody else’s. ‘Read me back the last line,’ read back the corporal. That’s my last line again! shrieked the colonel, turning purple with anger. Oh, no, sir, corrected the corporal. That’s my last line. I read it to you just a moment ago. Don’t you remember, sir? It was only a moment ago. Oh, my God! Read me back his last line, stupid.
