More From Ken Kesey

My childhood is streets upon streets upon streets upon streets. streets to define you and streets to confine you, with no sign of motorway, freeway or highway.
Childhood Highways Streets
Somewhere in this process you will come face-to-face with the sudden and shocking realization that you are completely crazy. your mind is a shrieking gibbering madhouse on wheels barreling pell-mell down the hill utterly out of control and hopeless. no problem. you are not crazier than you were yesterday. it has always been this way and you just never noticed. you are also no crazier than everybody else around you. the only real difference is that you have confronted the situation they have not.
Crazy Real Differences
I mean, i'm always happy if i have, like, humiliating asshole things that i did. i think: oh good, that's a good story. because if you write about humiliating asshole things other people do it doesn't work as well. i mean, you can, but you can get away with it better if you talk about what an asshole you are. it's much easier.
Writing Mean Thinking
When you talk like an asshole and look like an asshole, you're an asshole
Funny Attitude Talking
Setting aside the vast herd which shows no definable character at all, it seems to me that the minority distinguished by what is commonly regarded as an excess of sin is very much more admirable than the minority distinguished by an excess of virtue. my experience of the world has taught me that the average wine-bibbler is a far better fellow than the average prohibitionist, and that the average rogue is better company than the average poor drudge, and that the worst white-slave trader of my acquaintance is a decenter man than the best vice crusader.

I've always been on a personal mission to save the guitar.
Guitar Missions Personal Mission
Anybody who picks up a guitar and tells you that there's some inner message that they're trying to convey... it's nonsense. they're not being honest. the reason they're doing this is they wanna get lots of chicks and they don't want to work for a living.
Guitar Trying Want
A guitar is like an old friend that is there with me.
