Vonnegut on Boaz’s Revelation
“But Boaz had decided that he needed a buddy far more than he needed a means of making people do exactly what he wanted them to.”
There were so many great lines from Boaz in The Sirens of Titan. Here’s some more:
“A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.”
“When you get right down to it, everybody’s having a perfectly lousy time of it, and I mean everyone. And the hell of it is, nothing seems to help much.”
“I found me a place where I can do good without doing any harm, and I can see I’m doing good, and them I’m doing good for know I’m doing it, and they love me, Unk, as best they can. I found me a home.”
A quick read and a good one.
