Allen Ginsberg
Well, while I'm here I'll do the work — and what's the work? To ease the pain of living. Everything else, drunken dumbshow.
Allen Ginsberg
I want to be a saint, a real saint while I am young, for there is so much work to do.
Allen Ginsberg
The poignancy of a photograph comes from looking back to a fleeting moment in a floating world. The transitoriness is what creates the sense of the sacred
