“[...]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 “Awww!”
― Jack Kerouac, On the Road

“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.”
― Gustave Flaubert

“If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”
― Stephen King
