Have you heard the story Bono (a believer I could live without) tells about having a meal at Cash's home?

"We bowed our heads and John spoke this beautiful, poetic grace," Bono notes in Rolling Stone, "and we were all humbled and moved. Then he looked up afterwards and said, 'Sure miss the drugs, though.'"

Well, people have more than one face. But at night, when the wig and makeup came off, it looks like Warhol curled up with a prayer book before nodding off to sleep.

This quote reminds me of one from Dali, who said "Liking money like I like it, is nothing less than mysticism. Money is a glory."
