"A winded, defeated-looking fat woman in filthy coveralls trudged beside us, hearing what Miss Pefko said. She turned to examine Dr. Breed, looking at him with helpless reproach. She hated people who thought too much. At that moment, she struck me as an appropriate representative for almost all mankind."
Yes, I know what most of you will say, Jacks you have been reading too much Kurt Vonnegut. And I am going to agree with you. However, I will continue to buy his books because he is articulating so lovely many things that I feel.
Lately, I've been getting a lot of comments that I think too much. What is that? Why do people get so annoyed with people who continue to think? Isn't that what keeps society moving FORWARD? It's like some people want us just to shut up. To let things be as they are. However, if African Americans did that in the 60s we would have never have had a Civil Rights Movement. IF we just settle with the injustice around us NOTHING is going to change. We see bad all around us yet we tell each other not to think. However, I say to THINK. To FEEL. To have your opinions of society. Just because some people don't want to be bothered well that is their own thing. If they want to lead their life mindlessly than let it only affect their life. Not YOURS.
