Quote of the Day (Mel Brooks, on the Childhood Trauma of Homework)


“The happiest time in my life was the first nine years. Why nine? What happened at nine? Homework! They harnessed me . . . They wanted something back — for my just playing in the streets and eating chocolate pudding.” — Writer-director-actor Mel Brooks quoted in Henry Mance, “Back in the Saddle,” Financial Times, Feb. 17-18, 2018
