Our Saint’s salt & pepper quote??

Could this be source of M’s salt & pepper quote? Was on X scrolling & found this video on owners of large amounts of water owned by the Resnicks in CA & found a quote by Linda Resnick in the LA Times(see imagines below). Also check out the video @MorePerfectUS on X. It’s very interesting. https://x.com/moreperfectus/status/1877053423075377518?s=46
