The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend… …even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something. - Kurt Vonnegut

I’ll listen to anything Vonnegut had to say. After all, is there a more brilliant novel than “Slaughterhouse 5”? What an amazing mind!
