"Babies don't need a vacation, but I still see them at the beach... it pisses me off! I'll go over to a little baby and say 'What are you doing here? You haven't worked a day in your life!'"
- Steven Wright
About this Quote
This quote by Steven Wright is a funny way of mentioning the unfairness of life. Infants do not need a holiday due to the fact that they have not worked a day in their life, yet they are still able to delight in the high-ends of life such as going to the beach. This is in plain contrast to adults who have to work hard to be able to afford such luxuries. The quote also implies that the speaker is jealous of the babies and their carefree way of life. The speaker's humorous method of revealing his aggravation is a method of dealing with the unfairness of life. It is a reminder that life is not constantly reasonable and that we must make the most of the opportunities we have.
