- We've all heard the quote attributed to Andy Warhol, something
- along the lines of
-
- "In the future, everyone will be famous
- for fifteen minutes."
-
- Well, I'm just _positive_ that in high-school I read this
- in a poem by an early-20th-century poet (I keep thinking
- it was T.S. Eliot), but there it was fame for only ten
- minutes. Unfortunately, I've been unable to find it since.
-
- Anybody know?
