“Boys and girls in America have such a sad time together; sophistication demands that they submit to sex immediately without proper preliminary talk. Not courting talk—real straight talk about souls, for life is holy and every moment is precious.”
Jack Kerouac, On the Road, Part 1, Ch. 10 (via havent-got-a-prayer) (via chelseaalltogether)
[there are nights when i think that sal paradise was right]
(via continuants)
did you see that Jack Kerouac was one of the ‘Lifetime Grudges’ in the latest AV Club Q & A? Not that I won’t countenance any criticism of him, but dissing Kerouac is about as egregious as dissing Joyce, in literary terms.
