It's a work in progress....

There's this great interview with Vonnegut in this month's Rolling Stone. Here's a tiny excerpt:


"Since Dresden transformed Vonnegut into a card-carrying pacifist, it's not surprising that he disdains everything about the Iraq war. The very notion that more than 2,500 U.S. soldiers have been killed in what he sees as an unnecessary conflict makes him groan. "Honestly, I wish Nixon were president," Vonnegut laments. "Bush is so ignorant. And I don't like idiotic, impulsive people. He's not a capable human being. The war in Iraq shows that he's a phony Christian. Remember what William Shakespeare taught us a long time ago: 'The devil can cite scripture for his [own] purpose.'"
He asks me if I know why President Bush is so pissed off at Arabs. I shrug no. "They brought us algebra," he says laughing. "Also the numbers we use, including the symbol for nothing. Zero." When asked about the current Israel-Hezbollah conflict, he offers only a droll "We all, even our newborn babies, have done something terrible to be inflicted with such lethal nonsense."


Fuckin' beautiful. Definitely one of my favorite people of all time.
