Kurt Vonnegut passed away. I don’t know much about him nor have I read any of his work, but this quote struck me. Perhaps I’ll pick up “God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater” and have a read.
“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’ â€
