Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia2013

Gore Vidal:
[speaking about John F. Kennedy] He was really the most enjoyable company on earth and terribly funny. I took Tennessee over there one day, and Jack was putting up targets. And he got out guns, and we were gonna do some target practice. Jack begins, and he goes, 'Bang, Bang.' You know, he looked wonderful doing it, but, you know, didn't really hit the target. And Jack said, 'Well, Tennessee, don't you want to try at this target right here?' [laughs] Tennessee goes, 'Yes, well, you know I'm totally blind in my left eye, but I don't mind giving it a try.' Bang, Bang, Bang. He hit every target. [laughter]
