The Cuckoos Quote
Young Psychiatrist: Have you ever heard of the old saying, a rolling stone gathers no moss?
McMurphy: Yeah.
Young Psychiatrist: Does that mean something to you?
McMurphy: Uh... It's the same as, don't wash your dirty underwear in public.
Young Psychiatrist: I'm not sure I understand what you mean?
McMurphy: [smiling] I'm smarter than him, ain't I?
[laughs]
McMurphy: Well, that sort of has always meant, is, uh it's hard for something to grow on something that's moving.
McMurphy: Yeah.
Young Psychiatrist: Does that mean something to you?
