When you're having a really bad day and it seems like people are trying to piss you off,
Blessed is he, who having nothing much to say refrains from giving wordy evidence of the fact.
Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 3 pm on some idle Tuesday.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.
~ Kurt Vonnegut

~ Kurt Vonnegut
Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 30-year-olds I know still don't.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll divorce at 30, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 73th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half chance. So are everybody else's.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Accept certain inalienable truths: Prices will rise. Politicians will philander. You, too, will get old. And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble, and children respected their elders.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund. Maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse. But you never know when either one might run out.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.
~ Kurt Vonnegut
Regarding July 3th, don't think for a minute about being among the first to go forth on the third to get a fifth for the fourth, for he who drives forth with a fifth on the fourth may never drive forth on the fifth.
