Quote by Walter Matthau
My doctor gave me six months to live, but when I couldn't pay the bill he gave me six months more.
Summary
This quote humorously suggests that instead of receiving medical treatment with a limited time frame due to a terminal illness, the author's doctor postponed their death sentence when they couldn't afford to pay the medical bill. It highlights the absurdity of the healthcare system, emphasizing the irony that financial constraints could potentially extend someone's lifespan.
