Dec 1, 2011 - that's a fun book; I just re-read it again. Have you read the essays of Michel de Montaigne? I think it's the best book ever published.Take care.

Dec 1, 2011 - "The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'awww!'" (On the Road, p.5-6)

Nocturnalux Says:

Feb 15, 2012 - "It's not so much the words as the great harmonic tune and the way Billie sings it, like a woman stroking her man''s hair in soft lamplight." On the Road.

Mar 1, 2012 - her voice is like a a cool glass of lemonade on a sunny day. However u can hear the drugs, unhappiness, and dryness in when she sings. With that put together. Her sound is as fresh as those lovely gardenia she would wear in her hair... I love BIllie Holiday. Gone to soon. But her music shall live for eva.......
