Nobels

Two winners.

Gore: "Deeply honored".

Lessing: "Oh Christ! ... I couldn't care less.... I'm delighted to win them all, the whole lot, OK? It's a royal flush. I'm sure you'd like some uplifting remarks.... I'm 88 years old and they can't give the Nobel to someone who's dead, so I think they were probably thinking they'd probably better give it to me now before I've popped off.... I'm already thinking about all the people who are going to send me begging letters — I can see them lining up now."
