I can't tell you how much I loved the man, because he really got it. Life. America. The Human Condition. He was our generation's Mark Twain.
Love this quote the NYT pulled from God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater for his obituary:
“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’ ”So long, thanks and farewell, sir.
