4) Kurt Vonnegut
“Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae”
Kurt was an awesome and individualistic writer, perhaps most famous for Slaughterhouse-Five and Breakfast of Champions. During WWII Vonnegut was part of a group of American POWs who survived the bombing in an underground slaughterhouse meat locker used as an ad hoc detention facility. On his return to America, he was awarded a Purple Heart for what he called a “ludicrously negligible wound”.
I think anyone who’s ever written anything that’s in the public domain will appreciate the above quote.
