There was nothing to talk about anymore. The only thing to do was go.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

What is that feeling when you...

What is that feeling when you're driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? - it's the too-huge world vaulting us, and it's good-by. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

On soft Spring nights I'll st...

On soft Spring nights I'll stand in the yard under the stars - Something good will come out of all things yet - And it will be golden and eternal just like that - There's no need to say another word.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

So therefore I dedicate mysel...

So therefore I dedicate myself, to my art, my sleep, my dreams, my labors, my suffrances, my loneliness, my unique madness, my endless absorption and hunger because I cannot dedicate myself to any fellow being.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

I like too many things and ge...

I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till i drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

LA is the loneliest and most ...

LA is the loneliest and most brutal of American cities; NY gets god-awful cold in the winter but there's a feeling of wacky comradeship somewhere in some streets. LA is a jungle.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

No matter how you travel, how...

No matter how you travel, how 'successful' your tour, or foreshortened, you always learn something and learn to change your thoughts.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

Somebody had tipped the Ameri...

Somebody had tipped the American continent like a pinball machine and all the goofballs had come rolling to LA in the southwest corner. I cried for all of us. There was no end to the American sadness and the American madness. Someday we'll all start laughing and roll on the ground when we realize how funny it's been.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

I rather like the idea of hav...

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.'

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

What does it mean that I am i...

What does it mean that I am in this endless universe, thinking that I'm a man sitting under the stars on the terrace of the earth, but actually empty and awake throughout the emptiness and awakedness of everything? It means that I'm empty and awake, that I know I'm empty and awake, and that there's no difference between me and anything else.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

Contrary to the general belie...

Contrary to the general belief about photography, you don't need bright sunlight: the best moodiest pictures are taken in the dim light of almost dusk, or of rainy days.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

Are we fallen angels who didn...

Are we fallen angels who didn't want to believe that nothing is nothing and so were born to lose our loved ones and dear friends one by one and finally our own life, to see it proved?

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

Desolation, desolation, I owe...

Desolation, desolation, I owe so much to desolation.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

Bop began with Jazz but one afternoon somewhere on a sidewalk maybe 1939, 1940, Dizzy Gillespie or Charlie Parker or Thelonious Monk was walking past a men's clothing store on 42nd Street or South Main in L.A. and from a loudspeaker they suddenly heard a wild impossible mistake in jazz that could only have been heard inside their own imaginary head, and that is a new art. Bop.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

While looking for the light, you may suddenly be devoured by the darkness and find the true light

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

It’s not that I can’t fall in...

It’s not that I can’t fall in love. It’s really that I can’t help falling in love with too many things all at once. So, you must understand why I can’t distinguish between what’s platonic and what isn’t, because it’s all too much and not enough at the same time.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

I promise I shall never give ...

I promise I shall never give up, and that I'll die yelling and laughing, and that until then I'll rush around this world I insist is holy and pull at everyone's lapel and make them confess to me and to all.

Jack Kerouac 465 quotes

I realized either I was crazy...

I realized either I was crazy or the world was crazy; and I picked on the world. And of course I was right.
