and people who met him were always impressed by how unimpressive he was.
He also looked so much like Henry Fonda that it was a significant problem:
" Long before he even suspected who Henry Fonda was, he found himself the subject of unflattering comparisons everywhere he went. Total strangers saw fit to deprecate him, with the result that he was stricken early with a guilty fear of people and an obsequious impulse to apologize to society for the fact that he was not Henry Fonda" 😂
It’s such a fantastic book! Literally can’t recommend it enough if I live to be 120!

Just wait until you turn 121 and recommend it one too many times.
