More From Jack Kerouac

I do feel like i owe something, but not to the industry. when you say "industry," i think of a group of people who don't really care much about you and treat you as a commodity. so, in that regard, i don't feel like i owe anything. but the people who've always been supportive of me and have always seen me for my greatest potential-those are the people who i feel like i owe something to. i feel like i am their voice. i owe it them to represent them in a way that they can be proud of.
Thinking Voice People
Suffering... we owe to it all that is good in us, all that gives value to life; we owe to it pity, we owe to it courage, we owe to it all the virtues.
Depression Courage Giving
If you owe fifty dollars you're a piker; if you owe fifty thousand dollars you're a businessman; if you owe fifty million dollars you're a tycoon; if you owe fifty billion dollars you're the government.
Government Fifty Dollars
No, i don't want your money. the world moves less by money than by what you owe people and what they owe you. i don't like to owe anybody anything, so i keep to myself as much on the lending side as i can.
Moving People World
We owe our troops the opportunity to serve in the best-planned, best-equipped, and best-led military force in the world, and we owe them the peace of mind that comes from knowing that they and their families will be taken care of if they sacrifice life, limb or the ability to sleep without war's nightmares. we owe them not just thanks and best wishes, but action, and action in our nation's capital.
Military War Taken
A first attempt to recover the right of self government may fail, so may a second, a third, etc. but as a younger and more instructed race comes on, the sentiment becomes more and more intuitive, and a fourth, a fifth, or some subsequent one of the ever renewed attempts will ultimately succeed... to attain all this, however, rivers of blood must yet flow, and years of desolation pass over; yet the object is worth rivers of blood and years of desolation. for what inheritance so valuable can man leave to his posterity?
Men Race Self
Similar Quotes
The whole principle (censorship) is wrong; it's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can't eat steak.
Baby Men Principles
We do not want to live in a theocracy. we should maintain that barrier and government has no business telling someone what they ought to believe or how they should conduct their private lives.
Believe Government Want
The creator's concern is the conquest of nature. the parasite's concern is the conquest of men.
Men Political Politics
The admiration of power in others is as common to man as the love of it in himself; the one makes him a tyrant, the other a slave.
