Minderbinder: […] I know how you feel, but it wasn’t my fault.
Yossarian: Whose fault was it?
Minderbinder: No one’s. Nately was the victim of certain economic pressures, the laws of supply and demand. […] Nately died a wealthy man, Yossarian. He had over sixty shares in the syndicate.
Yossarian: What difference does that make? He’s dead.
Minderbinder: Then his family will get it.
Yossarian: He didn’t have time to have a family.
Minderbinder: Then his parents will get it.
Yossarian: They don’t need it, they’re rich.
Minderbinder: Then they’ll understand.
