Kurt Vonnegut, Cat's Cradle
"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way."
       ~ The Books of Bokonon

-----------

And I remembered The Fourteenth Book of Bokonon which I read in its entirety the night before. The Fourteenth Book is entitled "What Can a Thoughtful Man Hope for Mankind on Earth, Given the Experience of the Past Million Years?"

It doesn't take long to read The Fourteenth Book. It consists of one word and a period.

This is it:

"Nothing."
