“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 centerlight pop and everybody goes “Ahhh!”
- Kerouac

    What a wonderful quote! Aren't we all mad in some way? I'm going to steal this and put it on facebook if you don't mind :)

    Nope, I don't mind at all. :) In fact, it's already up on mine.

    Always loved this quote.

    I'll admit to having printed it out and pasting it to my dorm room door when I was in college. Hey, I was an English major, it was allowed!
