- 5. Here’s Carver’s own explanation for his success in milking the peanut for more than it is worth:
- 6. When I was a boy, I said to God, “God, tell me the mystery of the universe.” But God answered, “That knowledge is reserved for me alone.”
- 7. So I said, “God, tell me the mystery of the peanut.” Then God said, “Well, George, that’s more nearly your size.”
- 8. … and He told me.
