I feel like I've always had
this theory along the same lines.

1:19:06
It's really stupid, but I've
always felt ifyou could be...

1:19:10
- the guy or gal to come up with
a really good quote.
- Right.

1:19:14
But good, like a good one.
A goodlittle nugget.

1:19:17
Like, "Nothing to fear
but fear itself,"

1:19:19
- That's a good one.
- or, "Ask not whatyour country--"

1:19:21
And then you're done.
I mean, that's like immortality
in one kind oflightbulb moment.

1:19:27
You just go offto some Caribbean island
and drink all day and read and sw--

1:19:32
- What areyou doing?.
- Uh, I just, uh--

1:19:35
Hey, hey, hey, Meyers.
Take it easy.

1:19:37
- We got plenty, you know.
It's an open bar.
- Yeah. I just--

1:19:40
I know. I needed that
unfortunately badly because...

1:19:43
I have to tell you something
and it's just gonna be hard.

1:19:46
Oh.
1:19:48
Oh, my God.
Areyou firing me?.

1:19:52
- Is that whyyou brought up
the quitting and everything?.
- No, no. I'm not firing you.

1:19:55
I went tosee
yourshowlast night.

1:19:58
And I broughtyou flowers
because I knewyou were reallysad.

1:20:02
But, you know, the truth is that
you've been really happy lately.

1:20:06
I 've noticed.
I mean, so happy.

1:20:08
And that's made me really sad.
1:20:11
Inexplicably, deeplysad.
1:20:15
You know?. I mean, different than my
general snarky, bitter, tortured thing.

1:20:20
And, uh-- So anyway, I went to see
your show, not knowing exactlywhy,

1:20:26
and, uh, I saw your piece.
1:20:30
And I stared.
1:20:33
And then I had to get out ofthere.
I ran home.

1:20:37
And I started writing. I--
1:20:40
Just writing, all night.
1:20:42
Then I wrote all night
and into today.

1:20:45
I mean, that's why I was late.
I was writing.

1:20:47
And you know what?.
1:20:49
I was happy doing it.
1:20:53
I was really happy
for the first time in a long time.

1:20:56
Andas soon as I frelt
this happy thing, I--
