Quotes by Kenneth Patchen
-
If the truth is inside,And the form is outside,What is the truth of sleep?
Read quote -
Destiny is the music of the improbable. Were it otherwise, almost anyone could exist.
Read quote -
I tell you that what has changed is the whole conception of human life- that men of every race on this earth may have the same opportunity to live beautifully- to live in purity without fear or hunger or hatred- as brothers, not as brutes tearing through these hideous swamps of ignorance and war. Men speak of a belief in God. I am beginning to understand what every Christ- and their skins have been every color- what every Christ has taught: That love of God is love of mankind. That no one can profess to love God while he hates the least of his fellows. Jesus, if He were on earth right now, would fight to free men from oppression and evil and war; and you who have made a pious mockery of his every commandment- you would kill Him.

There are so many little dyings every day, it doesn't matter which one of them is death.

Oh lonesome's a bad place to get crowded into.
