Happy Birthday Kurt Vonnegut (Nov 11, 1922 – Apr 11, 2007).
"A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.
If we are wounded by an ugly idea, we must count it as part of the cost of freedom and, like American heroes in the days gone by, bravely carry on.
When things are going sweetly and peacefully, please pause a moment, and then say out loud, ‘If this isn’t nice, what is?’
God damn it, you’ve got to be kind."
