It's okay, girl, we'll make it till the sun goes down forever. And until then what you got to lose but the losing? We're fallen angels who didn't believe that nothing means nothing.
Jack Kerouac

Nothing ever happened - Not even this

I see as much as doors'll allow, open or shut.
Jack Kerouac

What difference does it make after all?--anonymity in the world of men is better than fame in heaven, for what’s heaven? what’s earth? All in the mind.
Jack Kerouac
Image
Dean and I both swayed to the rhythm and the IT of our final excited joy in talking and living to the blank traced end of all innumerable riotous angelic particulars that had been lurking in our souls all our lives.

Jack Kerouac
Image
I rather like the idea of having all my hours to myself: eating a Fudge Sundae, watching a movie, sleeping on my couch, singing in the bathroom, studying the woods, kidding around with a girl, playing cards lazily - all kinds of stuff that American brands 'shiftless.'

Something that you feel will find its own form.
Jack Kerouac

And the story of love is a long sad tale ending in graves.
Jack Kerouac
Image
At night in this part of the West the stars, as I had seen them in Wyoming, were as big as Roman Candles and as lonely as the Prince who's lost his ancestral home and journeys across the spaces trying to find it again, and knows he never will.
Jack Kerouac
Image
And I will die, and you will die, and we all will die, and even the stars will fade out one after another in time.
Jack Kerouac

The taste of rain -- Why kneel?

One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.

Ah Japhy you taught me the final lesson of them all, you can't fall off a mountain.
