Steven WrightI just got out of the hospital. I was in a speed reading accident. I hit a book mark and flew across the room.
About This Quote
This is the perfect quote if you’ve been hit by a speeding book. The accident must have been quite traumatic as you were hit by a book and fell across the room. It’s not like it happened to you off-hand and you didn’t see it coming. You read the book and then you were struck by this strange force and flung across the room.
The other thing about this quote is that it’s only funny if you were in the hospital. If you’re not, then that last line becomes a little clunky and the whole thing falls flat on its face.
