Koko: Honestly, Slothrop, not the best review.
A little lazy. Buddha will be sad.
Slothrop: You're right. Slothy ain't yet developed his vocabulary to talk about the nothing that it is not there and the nothing that is. The grip of empiricism is a strong one. But say what you will about the Buddhist ethos, at least it has quarks on its side, which is no small advantage. Turns out that while religions of the world have been beating themselves with Golden Dildos, the fat man's precepts have quietly been confirmed by mile-long telescopes and uber-strength microscopes. Now how does one transform knowledge to understanding? I wouldn't mind frolicking in no-time and no-space and living in a home of universal harmony. Well, guess we do live in a no-time, no-space harmonious universe, but are too ignorant-ass to feel deeply within. And no, the Buddha will not be sad for he knows Slothy's honky self needs "time" to come around.
