So I read "Breakfast of Champions" in its entirety last night.
There was a phrase I couldn't remember, but I remembered it was in that book.

And so I read the whole book, because it turned out the phrase was at the end.

The phrase I was looking for was "an unwavering band of light."

And so on.

1. I ate a box of Wheaties this morning to mark his passing
The last Vonnegut book I re-read recently was Player Piano, but I've re-read Cat's Cradle in the last year, and I page through Slaughterhouse Five every month or so.

So it goes.
