enjoy every sandwich

Note this exchange, shamelessly cribbed from an article at MSNBC:

Last October, after the news of his cancer was out, Zevon appeared on television as the only guest of David Letterman (a huge fan) in a special episode of the show. Zevon was witty, charming, even profound. Besides his musical performances, the highlight of the show was this exchange:

Letterman: “Do you now know something I don’t know?”
Zevon: “I know how much you are supposed to enjoy every sandwich.”
While you're out looking at Mars tonight, take a minute to howl at the moon.
