Quote by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

“I only wish the NRA and its jellyfish, well-paid supporters in legislatures both State and Federal would be careful to recite the whole of it, and then tell us how a heavily armed man, woman, or child, recruited by no official, led by no official, given no goals by any official, motivated or restrained only by his or her personality and perceptions of what is going on, can be considered a member of a well-regulated militia.”

“Cresci nas margens do rio Amazonas, navegando em sua vastidão e conhecendo o coração da grande floresta. Desde menina sabia que meu lugar era ali, em meio às frondosas árvores, em meio às águas profundas, em meio à terra e ao povo que aprendi a amar e que ofereciam tudo o que era necessário: sombra, abrigo, alimento.”
