“America is no place for an artist: to be an artist is to be a moral leper, an economic misfit, a social liability. A corn-fed hog enjoys a better life than a creative writer, painter or musician. To be a rabbit is better still.”
― Henry Miller, The Air-Conditioned Nightmare

“If I wasn't hard, I wouldn't be alive.
If I couldn't ever be gentle, I wouldn't deserve to be alive.”
― Raymond Chandler, Playback

“Write to me your most perfect epitaph, or I shall compare a poet to a lecturer. Thou art more Spartan than a ballad monger who makes his living as a Wal-Mart greeter;”
― Scott Jonathan Nixon, Cities of Love, Salt & Alchemy

“When the world is mine, then you all will be the 99.9%.”
― Scott Jonathan Nixon, Cities of Love, Salt & Alchemy
