'I Was There': On Kurt Vonnegut | The Nation

'I Was There': On Kurt Vonnegut | The Nation: We are as eager as children to swallow whatever illusions we’re handed.

Same as Cabell.

As for his fate, over the last many years of his life, that, too, he had described: “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”

Compare + Contrast Cabell's "Mundus Vult Decipi."
