Kurt Vonnegut

"I have this disease late in life. It's tremendous enthusiasm. But it kills you, I think"

"The most important thing I have to tell you today is that I am still alive."

"I think that novels about great wars and other historically important events can be written only by people who have absolutely no imagination."

"All this happened, more or less. The war parts, anyway, are pretty much true."

"And I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.'"

"And I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is'"

"I have told my sons that they are not under any circumstances to take part in massacres"

"We are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different"

"We are here on Earth to fart around."

"We are all here on Earth to help each other through this thing."

"I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.'"

"And I urge you to please notice when you are happy."

"We are here on Earth to fart around"

"The most important thing I have to tell you is that I have nothing important to tell you"

"That was I"

"I have this disease late at night sometimes, where I think that nobody likes me."

"It is so short and jumbled and jangled, Sam, because there is nothing intelligent to say about a massacre."

"And I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.'"

"All this happened, more or less."

"That was I. That was the author of this book."

"I have this disease late in life. It's a very decent disease to have late in life. There is no pain"

"Somebody had to write the story of the Second World War and I had to do it."

"I have told my sons that they are not under any circumstances to work on weapons or other machinery of war."

"I hate to say it but I'm not going to have a good time at a nice party unless I'm surrounded by Slaughterhouse-Five victims."

"Of all the things to have written on my tombstone, I'd like it to be: 'We are healthy. So it goes.'"

"My son would not talk to me"

"And I urge you to please notice when you are happy."

"I have this disease late in life...I am only susceptible to those things that are out of proportion."

"And I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.'"

"We are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different."
