 We have two American flags always: one for the rich and one for the poor. When the rich fly it means that things are under control; when the poor fly it means danger, revolution, anarchy.

 We live at the edge of the miraculous.

 We live in the mind, in ideas, in fragments. We no longer drink in the wild outer music of the streets - we remember only.

 We should read to give our souls a chance to luxuriate.

 What distinguishes the majority of men from the few is their ability to act according to their beliefs

 What have we achieved in mowing down mountain ranges, harnessing the energy of mighty rivers, or moving whole populations about like chess pieces, if we ourselves remain the same restless, miserable, frustrated creatures we were before? To call such activity progress is utter delusion. We may succeed in altering the face of the earth until it is unrecognizable even to the Creator, but if we are unaffected wherein lies the meaning?

 What holds the world together, as I have learned from bitter experience, is sexual intercourse.

 What is not in the open street is false, derived, that is to say, literature.

 Whatever I do is done out of sheer joy; I drop my fruits like a ripe tree. What the general reader or the critic makes of them is not my concern.

 Whatever needs to be maintained through force is doomed

 Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring, through obeying the blind urge

 Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring...

 When one is trying to do something beyond his known powers it is useless to seek the approval of friends. Friends are at their best in moments of defeat.

 When shit becomes valuable, the poor will be born without assholes.

 When you know what men are capable of you marvel neither at their sublimity nor their baseness. There are no limits in either direction apparently.
