“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...” - #JackKerouac (b: 12 March 1922)
Jack Kerouac escribió la primera versión de "On the road" en un rollo continuo de teletipo de 36 metros y sin un solo punto y aparte. Pegó 8 largas páginas a las que recortó los laterales para poder introducir el rollo en su maquina Underwood.
#JackKerouac nacido hace 104 años.
“E' un privilegio esercitare la generosità nei confronti degli altri.”
