"we Had Two Bags Of Grass, Seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high power blotter acid, a salt shaker full of cocaine and a whole galaxy of multicolored uppers,downer,screamers,laughers...Also a quart of tequila,a quart of rum, a case of budweiser, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls... But the only thing that worried me was the ether.. there is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible than a man in the depts of an ether binge."
"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."
"I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me."
