“I'd think, That ain't me, that ain't my face. It wasn't even me when I was trying to be that face. I wasn't even really me then; I was just being the way I looked, the way people wanted. It don't seem like I ever have been me.”
― Ken Kesey, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest

“Laughing like crazy
the child goes back to the city
gives birth to monsters
creates earthquakes
hairy women run naked
old folks who look like fetuses laugh and smoke.”
― Nicanor Parra, Emergency poems

“I'd take a look at my own self in the mirror and wonder how it was possible that anybody could manage such an enormous thing as being what he was.”
― Ken Kesey, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest

“A smoke, a book, a cup of coffee.

These are the little things that get us through this sometimes weary world and all the rainy days.”
― R.M. Engelhardt, The Resurrection Waltz Poems R.M. Engelhardt
