Kurt Vonnegut - The Short Story
I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.
I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.
Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.
"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.'"
She was a fool, and so am I, and so is anyone who thinks he sees what God is doing

Steven King on Writing
1. First write for yourself, and then worry about the audience.“When you write a story, you’re telling yourself the story. When you rewrite, your main job is taking out all the things that are not the story.”
2. Don’t use passive voice. “Timid writers like passive verbs for the same reason that timid lovers like passive partners. The passive voice is safe.”
3. Avoid adverbs. “The adverb is not your friend.”
4. Avoid adverbs, especially after “he said” and “she said.”
