About this user
I enjoy doing the things I enjoy. I avoid the things I don't.
People who can say it better:
Hemingway:
"Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut."
"Isn't it pretty to think so?"
Vonnegut:
"Anyone unable to understand how a useful religion can be founded on lies will not understand this book either."
Voltaire:
"All murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets."
"Anything that is too stupid to be spoken is sung."
"Do well and you will have no need for ancestors."
Shaw:
"Martyrdom is the only way in which a man can become famous without ability."
"Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it."
Patton:
No poor bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor bastards die for their country.
Vidal:
"Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates."
Heller:
"There was only one catch and that was Catch-22."
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 and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!
Breton:
The simplest Surrealist act consists of dashing down into the street, pistol in hand, and firing blindly as fast as you can, as fast as you can pull the trigger, into the crowd. Anyone who at least once in his life, has not dreamed of thus putting an end to the petty system of debasement and cretinization in effect has a well-defined place in that crowd, with his belly at barrel level.
Adams:
"In the beginning the universe was created. This made a lot of people angry and has widely been considered as a bad move."
Ginsberg:
"America I've given you all and now I'm nothing."
Dylan:
"Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?"
"Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now."
Churchill:
"I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly."
Salinger:
I was about half in love with her by the time we sat down. That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty . . . you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are."
