Kurt Vonnegut Quotes
The Sun Had Just Gone Down, And Its Afterglow Was Backlighting The City, Which Formed Low Cliffs Around The Bucolic Void To The Idle Stockyards. The City Was Blacked Out Because Bombers Might Come, So Billy Didn't Get To See Dresden Do One Of The Most Cheerful Things A City Is Capable Of Doing When The Sun Goes Down, Which Is To Wink Its Lights On One By One.
There Was A Broad River To Reflect Those Lights, Which Would Have Made Their Nighttime Winkings Very Pretty Indeed. It Was The Elbe.
