"I have enough"

Kurt Vonnegut and his friend and fellow author, Joseph Heller, went to a party at a billionaire’s mansion in Shelter Island, New York. They walked in and found themselves in a room filled with artwork by the likes of Monet and Picasso, like an art gallery. Vonnegut turned to Heller and asked, “How does it make you feel that our host only yesterday may have made more money than your novel, Catch-22, earned in its entire history?” Heller replied, “Yeah, but I have something he doesn’t have. I have enough.”
