Allen Ginsberg

The only way to overcome the devil is to love him.

I'm not a revolutionary. I'm an evolutionary.

I'm not a guru. I'm a student.

The only way to deal with fear is to face it.

I'm not a mystic. I'm a realist.

The only way to change the world is to change yourself.

I'm not a saint. I'm a sinner.

The only way to find your true self is to lose yourself.

I'm not a politician. I'm a poet.

I'm not a philosopher. I'm a poet.

The only way to live is to love.

I'm not a teacher. I'm a student.

The only way to create is to destroy.

I'm a poet, for Chrissake. I'm not a politician.

The only thing that can save the world is the humor of life.

I'm not interested in being a Beat Generation icon. I'm interested in being a human being.

We're in a situation where we have to create our own culture, because we're not getting it from the mainstream.

I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm doing it with all my heart.

I'm a Buddhist, which is a religion that believes in reincarnation and that every living thing is sacred.

I'm a great believer in the power of the word.
