It's the emptiest and yet the fullest of all human messages: 'Good-bye. - Kurt Vonnegut

Nothing in this book is true.

I don't care if I'm remembered or not when I'm dead. (A scientist I knew at General Electric, who was married to a woman named Josephine, said to me, "Why should I buy life insurance? If I die, I won't care what's happening to Jo. I won't care about anything. I'll be dead.")

I think you guys are going to have to come up with a lot of wonderful new lies, or people just aren't going to want to go on living.
