“Panic is the sudden realization that everything around you is alive.”
William S. Burroughs, Ghost of Chance

William S. Burroughs
“Whether you like it or not, you are committed to the human endeavor. I cannot ally myself with such a purely negative goal as avoidance of suffering. Suffering is a chance you take by the fact of being alive.”
William S. Burroughs, Letters to Allen Ginsberg 1953-1957

William S. Burroughs
“The people in power will not disappear voluntarily, giving flowers to the cops just isn't going to work. This thinking is fostered by the establishment; they like nothing better than love and nonviolence. The only way I like to see cops given flowers is in a flower pot from a high window.”
William S. Burroughs

“A writer does not own words any more than a painter owns colors. So lets dispense with this originality fetish… Look, listen and transcribe and forget about being original.”
William S. Burroughs
