Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“They had managed to convert their wealth, which had originally been in the form of factories or stores or other demanding enterprises, into a form so liquid and abstract, negotiable representations of money on paper, that there were few reminders coming from anywhere that they might be responsible for anyone outside their own circle of friends and relatives.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Hocus Pocus

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“I see no harm in telling young people to prepare for failure rather than success, since failure is the main thing that is going to happen to them.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Hocus Pocus

“And this has given rise to a whole new class of preening, narcissistic quacks like yourself who say in the service of rich and shameless polluters that the state of the atmosphere and the water and the topsoil on which all life depends is as debatable as how many angels can dance on the fuzz of a tennis ball.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Hocus Pocus

“Sometimes the truth has difficulty breaching the city walls of our beliefs. A lie, dressed in the correct livery, passes through more easily.”
Rachel Hartman

John Scalzi
“It’s hard to sell the official story to people who can see things for themselves.”
John Scalzi, The Life of the Mind
