There was nothing to talk about anymore. The only thing to do was go.

We wandered in a frenzy and a dream (301).

Par Jack Kerouac

He and I suddenly saw the whole country like an oyster for us to open; and the pearl was there, the pearl was there.

Par Jack Kerouac

I suddenly realized I was in California. Warm, palmy air - air you can kiss - and palms.

Par Jack Kerouac

...but I preferred reading the American landscape as we went along. Every bump, rise, and stretch in it mystified my longing.

Par Jack Kerouac

Be in love with your life, every detail of it.

Par Jack Kerouac

Pain or love or danger makes you real again....

Par Jack Kerouac

Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life

Par Jack Kerouac

A pain stabbed my heart, as it did every time I saw a girl I loved who was going the opposite direction in this too-big world.

Par Jack Kerouac

We lay on our backs, looking at the ceiling and wondering what God had wrought when He made life so sad. We made vague plans to meet in Frisco.

Par Jack Kerouac

So shut up, live, travel, adventure, bless and don't be sorry

Par Jack Kerouac

And the story of love is a long sad tale ending in graves.

Par Jack Kerouac
