Vonnegut quote (from Playboy interview 1973)

"I couldn't survive my own pessimism if I didn't have some kind of sunny little dream. ... Human beings will be happier — not when they cure cancer or get to Mars or eliminate racial prejudice or flush Lake Erie — but when they find ways to inhabit primitive communities again. That’s my utopia. That's what I want for me"

Having lived near lake Erie, I am glad they decided to clean it up a little bit, though.
