"If I were a younger man, I would write a history of human stupidity; and I would climb to the top of Mount McCabe and lie down on my back with my history for a pillow; and I would take from the ground some of the blue-white poison that makes statues of men; and I would make a statue of myself, lying on my back, grinning horribly, and thumbing my nose at You Know Who."

Cat’s Cradle — Kurt Vonnegut.

While I don’t think I’m old enough to fully appreciate this quote, I am as thankful as one can be for the man behind the words.
