Well, even though CP used a quote from one of my favorite books, here's my favorite quote from that book. Although there are so many juicy tidbits from thems pages...
"But then they danced down the street like dingledodies, and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because 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!"" - Jack Kerouac, On the Road
One of my favorite little poetry books is [i]Book of Blues[i] by Kerouac.
The Town and the City is quite nice as well, and really gives a nice preface to what happens... a base you could say... to On the Road... Anyhow... Back to your regularly scheduled quoting...
