Fountain Hughes: Once is Enough

Fountain Hughes survived involuntary servitude and his heartfelt advice was recorded for our benefit in this 1949 interview.

Those things, are for people with big offices - educated people. I'm not educated so I never worry about those things. Anything you don't bother about, you don't need. All these people bothering about automobiles and television - and others bothering about getting paid for them. Now I don't bother about anything - so I'm 104 years old.

- Fountain Hughes

Mr. Hughes' testimony should make anyone today think twice before volunteering to pay exponentially for material possessions that in fact, may be possessing us.
