Musing Dignified

It's Aloha Sunday. . .
Wanna Hang Out Here a While?

“I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around,

and don't let anybody tell you different.”


Kurt Vonnegut, Jr







"All theory, dear friend, is gray,

but the golden tree of life springs ever green."


Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"Memory is a child walking along a seashore.

You never can tell what small pebble it will pick up

and store away among its treasured things."

  3. you know Vonnegut has a son who writes don't you? He is pretty damn talented. Seems like he only writes non-fiction though. You should read some of the other Vonnegut.

  5. Kurt Vonnegut also said (speaking as God, in one of his books), in answer to the question "why is man born only to suffer and die?"

    "Why not?"

    Yeah I know. Kilgore Trout was disappointed, too.
