Quote Of The Week #44

Dr. David Bruce Banner, incredibly played by the late Bill Bixby in the Incredible Hulk-series, says the following in the episode Married (this story, I believe, is actually an old Buddhist wisdom):

I once heard a story about a man being chased by a tiger. He came to a cliff. He fell, but he grabbed a branch, and he just hung there, just out of reach of the tiger. And he looked down. You know what he saw? Another tiger, waiting for him to drop.
Then he felt that the branch he was clinging to was coming out of the cliff by the roots. Now while all this was happening, he noticed something: he noticed, growing in a cleft besides him, a single wild strawberry. And with his free hand he reached out and picked it and he ate it.
And he thought to himself: what a wonderful strawberry.
