- Everything that's successful is a series of mistakes - Billie Joe Armstrong

I love to write and I assure you I write regularly… But I write for myself, for my own pleasure. And I want to be left alone to do it - J.D. Salinger

What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse - The Catcher In The Rye

What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though - The Catcher In The Rye

Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion - Jack Kerouac

Maybe that's what life is...a wink of the eye and winking stars - Jack Kerouac

My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them - Jack Kerouac

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars - Jack Kerouac

Man + Woman ≠ Marriage Love + Commitment = Marriage

“... we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number, really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood,some afternoon that’s so deeply a part of your being that you can’t even conceive of your life without it?
Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.” — Paul Bowles
