Hobbes said, “I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that everyone’s got a price, or the fact that their price is so low.”
You don’t specify which Hobbes. When I Googled this quote trying to find out, I didn’t find any results that didn’t trace back to this post. I kept reducing the strictness of the exact wording, and still didn’t get any not-this results, until I reduced it to “got a price” and “so low”, which turned up basically the same quote, differently worded, on TV Tropes, attributing it to Calvin and Hobbes. I had assumed that might be the source, since I’ve seen you speak highly of Calvin and Hobbes elsewhere, but I didn’t know for sure, and checking ended up being surprisingly difficult. (Not sure which version is misquoted, this one or the TV Tropes one. Possibly both, since the latter only turned up one other source, a Twitter post that might have gotten it from the same place.)
