On Success

“Vanity of vanities… all is vanity. You kill yourself to get to the grave. Especially you kill yourself to get to the grave before you die; and the name of the grave is ‘success’, the name of that grave is hullabullo boom boom horseshit.” 

—Jack Kerouac

  1. Tim, always nice to read your blog- you never know when you’ll see a little Jack!

    This echoes some of the thoughts I’ve enjoyed in the British magazine called the Idler. Cheers, John
