I was just reading the “mind-boggling movie quote” thread and that made me want to lay the following quote on y’all to see if you could help me identify the BOOK that it comes from. Actually, not a quote, but a joke…
A character in a novel reports that whenever he feels lost while driving his car, he just looks for another car that looks like it knows where it’s going, and he follows that car…
Over the years, I’ve told myself this a million times (when I’m lost, I think, “I’ll just follow that guy, he looks like he knows where he’s going…ha ha…”). But the source of this is long-gone to me. My guess is that it comes from a jokey sort of book, like Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy…in which case someone will be able to enlighten me immediately, I expect. That’s just a guess, though…
Does this ring a bell for anyone?
