/ Well, anyway, I was reading this James \
| Bond book, and right away I realized |
| that like most books, it had too many |
| words. The plot was the same one that |
| all James Bond books have: An evil |
| person tries to blow up the world, but |
| James Bond kills him and his henchmen |
| and makes love to several attractive |
| women. There, that's it: 24 words. But |
| the guy who wrote the book took |
| *thousands* of words to say it. |
| |
| Or consider "The Brothers Karamazov", |
| by the famous Russian alcoholic Fyodor |
| Dostoyevsky. It's about these two |
| brothers who kill their father. Or |
| maybe only one of them kills the |
| father. It's impossible to tell because |
| what they mostly do is talk for nearly |
| a thousand pages. If all Russians talk |
| as much as the Karamazovs did, I don't |
| see how they found time to become a |
| major world power. |
| |
| I'm told that Dostoyevsky wrote "The |
| Brothers Karamazov" to raise the |
| question of whether there is a God. So |
| why didn't he just come right out and |
| say: "Is there a God? It sure beats the |
| heck out of me." |
| |
| Other famous works could easily have |
| been summarized in a few words: |
| |
| * "Moby Dick" -- Don't mess around with |
| large whales because they symbolize |
| |
| nature and will kill you. * "A Tale of |
| Two Cities" -- French people are crazy. |
