Jack Kerouac

For me it was just red wine in my mouth and a pile of firewood
Jack Kerouac

Jack Kerouac
I'd rather be thin than famous but I'm fat paste that in your broadway show
Jack Kerouac
Night is longer than day for those who dream & day is longer than night for those who make their dreams comes true.
Jack Kerouac
Life is life, and kind is kind
Jack Kerouac
Life must be rich and full of loving--it's no good otherwise, no good at all, for anyone.
Jack Kerouac
...most of the time we were alone and mixing up our souls ever more and ever more till it would be terribly hard to say good-by.
Jack Kerouac
As I grew older I became a drunk. Why? Because I like ecstasy of the mind.
Jack Kerouac
My whole wretched life swam before my weary eyes, and I realized no matter what you do it's bound to be a waste of time in the end so you might as well go mad.
Jack Kerouac
