A few quotes by one of my favourite American journalists. King of Gonzo Journalism.
“I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me.”
-Hunter S. Thompson
"When the going gets tough. The weird turn pro"
-Hunter S. Thompson
"I feel the same way about disco as I do about herpes.”
-Hunter S. Thompson
"History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of "history" it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time -- and which never explain, in retrospect, what actually happened.”
-Hunter S. Thompson
"If you're going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you're going to be locked up.”
-Hunter S. Thompson
"Bill Clinton does not inhale marijuana, right? You bet. Like I chew on LSD but I don't swallow it.'"
-Hunter S. Thompson
"All political power comes from the barrel of either guns, pussy, or opium pipes, and people seem to like it that way."
-Hunter S. Thompson
"Who are these Swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? ..... They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and viscious in the American character.... I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck Them."
-Hunter S. Thompson

"Dance your cares away, worry's for another day.
Let the music play down at Fraggle Rock.
Work your cares away, dancing's for another day.
Work your cares away down at Fraggle Rock."
-The Fraggles
and I also thought I'd put a quote up here me and my friend Tommy came up with....
"Find something that isn't edible... and prove it wrong"
-Jason and Tommy

"Pearl, have you ever wondered why banks have so many mi-ranged enlightened, qualified directors, who work hard and honorably and are relatively underpaid, like us, while the places with more category are didvided among a bunch of ignorant vain, rude, conceited, snobs who only care about their own wellfare?
Well, why?

"I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the kind that we experience in ourselves. Neither can I nor would I want to conceive of an individual that survives his physical death; let feeble souls, from fear or absurd egoism, cherish such thoughts. I am satisfied with the mystery of the eternity of life and with the awareness and a glimpse of the marvelous structure of the existing world, together with the devoted striving to comprehend a portion, be it ever so tiny, of the Reason that manifests itself in nature."
Albert Einstein, The World as I See It

"Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night."
