Joseph Heller Quote
When I was a kid, Orr replied, I used to walk around all day with crab apples in my cheeks. One in each cheek.... A minute passed. Why? [Yossarian] found himself forced to ask finally.Orr tittered triumphantly. Because they're better than horse chestnuts... When I couldn't get crab apples, Orr continued, I used horse chestnuts. Horse chestnuts are about the same size as crab apples and actually have a better shape, although the shape doesn't matter a bit.Why did you walk around with crab apples in your cheeks? Yossarian asked again. That's what I asked. Because they've got a better shape than horse chestnuts, Orr answered. I just told you that.Why, swore Yossarian at him approvingly, you evil-eyed, mechanically aptituded, disaffiliated son of a bitch, did you walk around with anything in your cheeks?I didn't, Orr said, walk around with anything in my cheeks. I walked around with crab applies in my cheeks. When I couldn't get crab apples I walked around with horse chestnuts. In my cheeks.
