Sayings by Kurt Vonnegut
I don't know what it is about you, but you make me want to be a better man.
The universe is a big place, and we're all just tiny specks in it. So what's the point of worrying about anything?

The only way to get through life is to laugh at it.

Paranoia is just total awareness.
I was never a big fan of the '60s. I was always a little bit ahead of them.
I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me.
Anything worth doing is worth doing right.
To understand the man, you have to understand what he wanted. And what he wanted was always the same: to be a writer.
I have a lot of friends who are cops, and a lot of friends who are criminals. I just try to keep them separated.
The only way to write honestly is to be honest about yourself.
There are no innocent bystanders. Only innocent victims.
Sanity is a cozy lie.
We could have saved the Earth but we were too damned cheap.
The excrement hit the air-conditioning.
