"How happy is the blameless Vestal's lot! /
The world forgetting, by the world forgot /
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! /
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd."
- Mary, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
"Sometimes it hits you how quickly the present fades into the past, and you question everything around you. You wonder if anything you'd ever do would matter."
-Iris Chapman, Clockwatchers
"Everything is temporary. Everything begins and ends and begins again. When I look ahead, I imagine infinite possible futures repeated like countless photocopies, a thousand blank pages, and in each one I see myself, never hiding, never sitting silently, and never just waiting and waiting and watching the world go by." - Iris Chapman, Clockwatchers
"What is that feeling when you're driving away from people, and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? -it's the too huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies." - Jack Kerouac, On the Road
"But why think about that when all the golden land's ahead of you and all kinds of unforeseen events wait lurking to surprise you and make you glad you're alive to see?."
- Jack Kerouac, In Literature/Beat Generation
I recommend all the Jack Kerouac quotes found on this page.
"I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till i drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion."
- Jack Kerouac, In Literature/Beat Generation
"...colleges being nothing but grooming schools for the middleclass non-identity which usually finds its perfect expression on the outskirts of the campus in rows of well-to-do houses with lawns and television sets in each living room with everybody looking at the same thing and thinking the same thing at the same time while the Japhies of the world go prowling in the wilderness..."
- Jack Kerouac, In Literature/Beat Generation
"You know that point in your life when you realize the house you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? That idea of home is gone. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place."
- Andrew Largeman, Garden State
2004 - 2006
