William S Burroughs Quotes

Wouldn't it be great, as Scott Peck suggests, if all medical students had to undergo the symptoms and feeling of a spectrum of illnesses. From acute infections to terminal cancer - and Kuru, the laughing sickness. Just a month for each exposure, controlled of course, and a good heavy dose of excruciating pain. So they'll know what that feels like Picture Quote #1

I don't know what falling in love for me is. The concept of romantic love arose in the Middle Ages. Now remember, the Arabs don't even have a word for love-that is, a word for love apart from physical attraction or sex. And this separation of love and sex is a western concept, a Christian concept. As to what falling in love means, I'm uncertain. Love, well, it means simply physical attraction and liking a person at the same time Picture Quote #1

I prefer cats to people, for the most part. Most people aren't cute, and if they are cute they rapidly outgrow it Picture Quote #1

We are the cats inside. We are the cats who cannot walk alone, and for us there is only one place Picture Quote #1

Some people like neat suburbs. I always am attracted to the rundown and the old and the offbeat Picture Quote #1

Like most qualities, cuteness is delineated by what it isn't. Most people aren't cute at all, or if so they quickly outgrow their cuteness... Elegance, grace, delicacy, beauty, and a lack of self-consciousness: a creature who knows he is cute soon isn't Picture Quote #1

Like pregnant women lose their teeth feeding the stranger, junkies lose their yellow fangs feeding the monkey Picture Quote #1

Hustlers of the world, there is one mark you cannot beat: the mark inside Picture Quote #1

There may be people who like centipedes... Personally, I would regard such an individual with deep suspicion. I have just petted my cat:

People have nothing to say, but they are afraid of saying nothing, so what they do say comes out flat and vapid and meaningless. The shadow of death is on every face Picture Quote #1

In deep sadness there is no place for sentimentality. It is as final as the mountains: a fact. There it is. When you realize it you cannot complain Picture Quote #1

Perhaps all pleasure is only relief Picture Quote #1

After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say 'I want to see the manager. ' Picture Quote #1
