Kurt Vonnegut Quote

Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last.

Now, 75 years [after ], in an abundant society where people have laptops, cell phones, iPods, and minds like empty rooms, I still plod along with books.

Even now I remember those pictures, like pictures in a storybook one loved as a child. Radiant meadows, mountains vaporous in the trembling distance; leaves ankle-deep on a gusty autumn road; bonfires...

Success is hard, rewards are scant and the glory not always there.

The day when the fire that we had lit in our minds reaches our hearts, we will start turning every person that we come in contact with into ashes. We become the ghosts that we always feared.

When everyone has a microphone, you can't hear anything. Choose one voice carefully and listen in.

Risk is the clue that our dreams are both real and great.

The truth no matter how hard it is to bear, must be accepted and confronted head on because it is real. Businesses and people who accept truth soar.

How incessant and great are the ills with which a prolonged old age is replete.

You make name for yourself when you overcome pain, weakness, laziness and ignorance
