"I like Hunters writing style ...... "

Hunter S. Thompson: “Music has always been a matter of Energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio.”

“I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours.”

* “If you’re going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you’re going to be locked up.”

* “When the going gets weird, the weird turn professional.”
