Quote by Joe Hagan

“Wenner’s unabashed idol worship had so often embarrassed them—starfucker, they grumbled behind his back—but now here he was with an actual Beatle. And Yoko! Who could deny this? The hirsute supercouple were smaller than anybody imagined, but John Lennon still towered over Jann Wenner, who at five six so often found himself gazing up at his heroes like a boy vampire.”

“Often I lose myself in the constellation of my own ideas, forever searching for point of illumination. But no matter where I look, I find you, shinning and bright, offering me what ever it is I seek, you are my one single star. My sun, my moon, my guide and direction, I know as long as I have you, I'll never lose my way. Even if I can not touch you, I know I will see you, feel you, from anywhere. If I need you I know where to find you”

“La mente es omnipresente, los acontecimientos de la vida no suceden aislados y la historia está siempre aumentando su volumen. El estado natural de la vida y de la mente es la complejidad. En este punto lo que el arte puede ofrecer (si puede ofrecer algo, me parece) es una ausencia de complejidad, un vacío a través del cual uno sea llevado a un estado de completa relajación mental. Después de ellos puede volverse a la complejidad de la vida otra vez, y puede no ser lo mismo, o quizás uno nunca vuelva, pero ése es un problema personal. La riqueza mental debe preocuparnos tanto como la riqueza física. ¿No dijo acaso Cristo que más fácil pasa un camello por el ojo de la aguja, que John Cage al cielo? Creo que es hermoso abandonar lo más posible lo que se tiene, tanto las posesiones mentales como las materiales porque obstruyen la mente. Es hermoso mantener la pobreza del ambiente, del sonido, del pensamiento, de las creencias. Es hermoso mantenerse pequeñita como un grano de arroz en vez de expandirse. Hágase dispensable, como el papel. Ver poco, oír poco, pensar, poco.”

“You have two choices,” Vance said. I stopped in the doorway to the hall and put my hands on my hips. “And those would be?” I asked. “We can talk or we can f**k.” My eyes rounded. Then they narrowed. I didn’t answer. “Though,” he went on, “I should tell you even if you pick talking, after we’re done, we’re still gonna f**k.” I frowned at him and leaned in. “You are too much,” I snapped. He ignored my threatening posture. “You don’t chose, I will, and I’ll pick f**king. We can talk after.”

“Jules, I’ll tell you now what I would have told you at dinner if you’d been speakin’ to me. This,” he said, one hand dropping to my bottom and pulling my hips into his, one going up my back to press my torso to his chest, “is the sweetest thing I’ve had in my life and I haven’t even f**ked you yet. I never expected to get a chance at anything so sweet and now that I got it, I’m not gonna let it go.”

“I saw Hunter when I woke up. I saw Hunter as I ate a bowl of cereal. I saw him in human sexuality, where he seemed to be trying to break a record for most innuendos in one hour. I saw him at work where he assaulted my email. I saw him every night at dinner. I saw him go to and from the bathroom. I saw him at our stupid meditations, where were as pointless as socks with sandals. I. Saw. Him. EVERYWHERE.”
