something's gone awry

i am going to write a play about the breakup of a marriage, and at the end of the play i am going to have a character say what people should say to each other in real life at the end of a marriage 'i'm sorry. you, being human, need a hundred affectionate and like-minded companions. i'm only one person. i've tried, but i could never be a hundred people to you. you've tried, but you could never be a hundred people to me. too bad. good-bye.'

vonnegut né minha gente.
