I love him and Slaughterhouse Five too. Here's a link to the transcript below that he sent to a recent widow that had written him to thank him for his work:
Dearest Marianne Brown -- It can't be said often enough, "It is the woman who pays." The miracle is that so many can and do somehow. I was in love (still am) with a widow with four kids (two not her own). She somehow raised them all on a teeny weeny salary. I told her one time, "I worry about women." She said, "Don't."
