CGlanovsky: The authors' parting shots on their lives and times, especially their somewhat pessimistic opinions regarding the prevailing political situations.
I think it's the last book he published before his death, so he even sounds older and crankier in his writing. It's a nice short read (maybe an hour of time), and I can just hear him speaking to a crowd about how the Bush era screwed up so much (I'd be curious to hear his opinions about Obama, but sadly he's no longer with us).

If you live long enough, a lot of people close to you are going to die.
Here is a lesson in creative writing. First rule: Do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites representing absolutely nothing. All they do is show you've been to college.
Humor is an almost physiological response to fear.
And on the subject of burning books: I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength or their powerful political connections or their great wealth, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books from their shelves, and have refused to reveal to thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles.
So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.
