Mountains and Rivers Without End Quotes

“Each time you go that road it gets more straight.”
― Gary Snyder, Mountains and Rivers Without End

“Get drunk all the time. Go someplace and score.
Walk in and walk out of the Asp
Hike up Tam
Keep quitting and starting at Berkeley
Watch the pike in the Steinhart Aquarium: he doesn't move.
Sleeping with stangers
Keeping up on the news
Chanting sutras after sitting
Practicing yr frailing on guitar
Get dropped off in the fog in the night
Fall in love twenty times
Get divorced
Keep moving — move out to the Sunset
Get lost — or
Get found”
― Gary Snyder, Mountains and Rivers Without End

“Empty eye sockets of buildings just built
Soulless, they still wait the ceremony
that will make them too,
new, Big
city Gods”
― Gary Snyder, Mountains and Rivers Without End
