Quote by Rodney Dangerfield

I remember I was so depressed I was going to jump out a window on the tenth floor... so they sent a priest up to talk to me. He said.. On your mark...

I remember I was so depressed I was going to jump out a wind

Summary

This quote sarcastically depicts a situation where the speaker, feeling deeply depressed, contemplates suicide. However, instead of addressing the speaker's emotional struggles, the priest makes a humorously inappropriate remark, saying "On your mark," as if preparing the speaker for a physical sprint or competition. The quote serves to point out the absurdity of a trivialized response to someone battling severe emotional turmoil and highlights the need for compassionate understanding and support.
