“When the going get's weird, the weird turn pro.”
Peter O Whitmer, When The Going Gets Weird: The Twisted Life And Times Of Hunter S. Thompson: A Very Unauthorized Biography

Joseph Heller
“He was going to live forever, or die in the attempt.”
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

Hunter S. Thompson
“Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously.”
Hunter S. Thompson

Hunter S. Thompson
“I was not proud of what I had learned but I never doubted that it was worth knowing.”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Rum Diary

Jared Diamond
“To me, the conclusion that the public has the ultimate responsibility for the behavior of even the biggest businesses is empowering and hopeful, rather than disappointing. My conclusion is not a moralistic one about who is right or wrong, admirable or selfish, a good guy or a bad guy. My conclusion is instead a prediction, based on what I have seen happening in the past. Businesses have changed when the public came to expect and require different behavior, to reward businesses for behavior that the public wanted, and to make things difficult for businesses practicing behaviors that the public didn't want. I predict that in the future, just as in the past, changes in public attitudes will be essential for changes in businesses' environmental practices.”
Jared Diamond, Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed
