Hunter S. Thompson Quotes

To Show Man The Best That Is In Him; Not The Most Appealing Or The Most Amusing Or Even The Most Realistic - But The Best, Which Is Rare And Common And Understood By All Of Us In All Our Different Ways ... To Include All The Others - The Meanest, The Cheapest, The Most Cowardly - As A Background And A Foreground For Something Better ... To Dig In The Old Scum That Covers Us All And Find Something That Might Be A Tool For A Man Who Would Use It To Fashion His Self-respect In A World Where All Those Tools Are Buried Or Broken Or Illegal ... And Finally To Tell It As It Is, Trying To See It All And Especially The Best, For To Miss That Part Is To Shovel Shit On Men Who Were Born In Quicksand And Find No Novelty In The Heave And Smell Of Doom.
