Woody Allen has always been beloved of intellectuals.
And Irwin Corey has been hated.
Allen's mockery was always directed - apparently - at himself, and hence it was respectful.
Not so, Corey's.
I always liked Allen, who made me laugh.
But Corey nearly made me bust a gut.
He always had my vote for graduation speaker.
A propos, Saul Bellow's Herzog writes,
Dear Doktor Professor Heidegger, I should like to know what you mean by the expression, "the fall into the quotidian." When did this fall occur? Where were we standing when it happened?
