“I'm reading a book about Romaine Brooks, a wonderful painter from earl...” — Lawrence Ferlinghetti Quote

“I'm reading a book about Romaine Brooks, a wonderful painter from early in the last century.”

“Constantly risking absurdity and death whenever he performs above the heads of his audience, the poet, like an acrobat, climbs on rhyme to a high wire of his own making.”

“We were just a one-room bookstore; we didn't have any money for lawyers.”

“I started rocking and rolling when Guns N' Roses came out. It wasn't until Garth Brooks came around that I really got back to country. He made it fun again. To me, in country music, the rigor mortis was setting in and it just wasn't fun anymore. Garth brought everyone back over to country and made it cool again.”

“I didn't think I liked country music. Then I got into Garth Brooks.”

“I tried several different Brooks and I just found that the Glycerin was the best match for me. I was pretty surprised because I've always liked the thin-soled sneakers for running. But when it comes to running on pavement for more than an hour, the thicker Glycerins were like pillows for my feet.”
