Hunter S. Thompson
It is like sitting in a traffic jam on the San Diego Freeway with your windows rolled up and Portuguese music booming out of the surround-sound speakers while animals gnaw on your neck and diseased bill collectors hammer on your doors with golf clubs.
Hunter S. Thompson
To make a point of declaring friendship is to cheapen it. For men's emotions are very rarely put into words successfully.
Hunter S. Thompson
As things stand now, I am going to be a writer. I'm not sure that I'm going to be a good one or even a self-supporting one, but until the dark thumb of fate presses me to the dust and says 'you are nothing', I will be a writer.
Hunter S. Thompson
Call on God, but row away from the rocks.
Hunter S. Thompson
Without gambling, I would not exist.
Hunter S. Thompson
