The friends I love, the music I listen to, the way I dress, the places I go, the things I do, the people I meet, the life I live.
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue center light pop and everybody goes "AWWW!"
From On the Road by Jack Kerouac.
