NOT ENOUGH PRAISE
Fed up. One day a millionaire of my acquaintance, whose pride it was never to offer a tip for any service, faced an unforgettable tragedy. His chief accountant committed suicide. The books were found to be in perfect order, the affairs of the dead man, a modest bachelor, were prosperous and calm. The only letter left by the accountant was a brief note to his millionaire employer. It read: “In 30 years I have never had one word of encouragement. I’m fed up.” — Alexandra Kropotkin From HOMEMADE, ISSN 0899-5494 (Vol. 15, No. 1, January, 1991)
