Milkins.: Demetri Martin

Quotes:

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify them, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do." — Jack Kerouac

"...what made being alive almost worthwhile for me, besides music, was all the saints I met, who could be anywhere. By saints I meant people who behaved decently in a strikingly indecent world." - Kurt Vonnegut

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved... the ones who never yawn and say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars. - Jack Kerouac

Not all those who wander are lost. - C.S. Lewis

To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget. - Arundhati Roy

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities. - Dr. Seuss

My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them. - Jack Kerouac

Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion. - Jack Kerouac

Live in the moment. Be present. And say thank you for everything. - JM

"That is man-tastic."

Ok, to take the edge off the somewhat serious tone of the last entry, I've decided to include a clip of one of my favorite comedians, Demetri Martin.
