Reader comments about this quote:
Bob Dylan once penned the lyrics "You gotta serve somebody, it may be the Devil or it may be The Lord, but you gotta serve somebody." How true. Who or what does Kurt serve? If KV had a personal faith in The Almighty and His revelation, his intelect to expose hypocrisy as in his quote re Iraq War, The 'War on Terror' and the use of 'God's' name to justify the same with unChristian actions --- WOW!!!!!! Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. quotes: We are what we pretend to be. Proverbs says "As a man thinks, so he becomes." This is a psychological truism, Kurts quote is the food for counsellors, Psyches, and new age gurus.
