"No mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were alive in that corner of time in the world. Whatever it meant. There was madness in any direction, at any hour. You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right. That we were winning. And that, I think, was the handle. That sense of inevitable victory over the forces of evil. Not in any mean or military sense. We didnt need that. Our energy would simply prevail. We had all the momentum. We were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, less than 5 years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look west, and with the right kind of eyes, see the high water mark. That place were the wave finally broke, and rolled back."
Hunter S. Thompson
Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas
I suppose the reason I posted that quote is because life is something that happens, whether or not you ever understand the meaning.
