Aristotle is on The Dole

    I had a dream that Aristotle was on the dole.

    They've been geniuses from the beginning, those Greeks.

    He would have, too.

    Signing on once a month.

    Imparting dry witticisms to Bridie in the post office when collecting his giro.

    On about the budget,

    All politicians are muck savages, he'd moan, dragging the last puff out of his cigarette.

    Men who work for a living are fools, Aristotle once remarked to a scholar in a throwaway remark, out of earshot of a social welfare inspector.

    Ha Ha, Aristotle laughed, being awake is for dreaming, thinking is for when you're sat on the toilet.

    "Damn those scum journalists to hell, I told them to never quote me when I'm doing opium" Aristotle remarked as he shook his head is disgust
