The Howard Hughes thing hadn’t actually sounded like such a bad deal until about...oh, eight thirty-five this morning. Something about having his ex carry him to the bathroom and help him wash his balls just took all the fun out of becoming an eccentric recluse.

About This Quote

Howard Hughes was the billionaire who lead the Hughes Aircraft Company. He decided to live his life like a recluse after his company went bankrupt. The idea was that he would remain alone because he didn’t need anyone to help him; he was able to take care of himself. However, Hughes had gotten used to living like this and began to feel lonely.

He didn’t like having his ex-wife live with him anymore and she wasn’t too happy about it either. His need for love was not being met by his family, which made it all the more difficult for him to stick to the plan.
