Steve Almond Quotes

Vonnegut Had Seen The Worst Of Human Conduct And Refused To Lie About The Sort Of Trouble We Were In, But Who Had Not Allowed His Doubt To Curdle Into Cynicism, Who, For All His Dark Prognostication, Was A Figure Of Tremendous Hope.

Like Any Decent Parent, He Had Made The Astonishing Sorrow Of The Examined Life Bearable.
