• Albert Hockenberry : You're a real fine musician, Baba.

  Baba : Yeah? Well, I guess my fame and fortune attest to that. But, I'm not complaining. Music is still the best way I know to fight off a little thing I like to call 'the Big Fear.'

  Albert Hockenberry : Death.

  Baba : Death? No, it isn't death. Death, believe me, is a little fear! The Big Fear, the real fear, is that hard times might squeeze you so bad, you'll be driving *every* day of the week. It's the fear that the music you're writing, or your brilliant first novel that's like a draft away from being a best-seller, or your plans for law school, have to wait. You see, Albert, after all that it takes... the hopes and dreams, and the whole bag of tricks that you need just to walk around on the planet, well... the Big Fear, Albert, is that you're becoming a cab driver!
