― Jack Kerouac, On the Road

“How fortunate Buddha, Mahomed, and Shakespeare were that their kind relations and doctors did not cure them of their ecstasy and their inspiration”
― Anton Chekhov, The Lady with the Dog and Other Stories

“Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the same earth. They are inseparable.”
