Quote
“- Box Boy: How come I never heard of Max Wellington?
- Bill: Maybe because he was great. You never really remember anyone who was great. It's a sad fact of life, Joe. The truly great not only go unremembered, they seldom get hired. It's the mediocre talent that gets all the work. Nobody expects anything from them, and they're never disappointed.
- Box Boy: I don't understand that.
- Bill: Neither do I, but remember it.”
