Nero Wolfe's Archie Goodwin and his words of wisdom!

Excerpt: Rex Stout's In The Best Families, New Bantam May, 1968, paperbook version of 1950 Viking Publishing Company original.

Like, maybe? We could say that the following is Archie's personal philosophy in which he cleverly unites the twin virtues of Experience and Intelligence??!!

Page 76.

"Experience tells me that pants wear out quicker sitting down than moving around.

"Intelligence tells me it's better to wait till you die to start to rot."

Don't you know this was one home that had life all figured out??!!
