"The only way to protest a mad world is to be as mad as it is."
"I'm not a teacher. I'm a student."
"My own experience is that a certain kind of genius among students is best brought out in bed."
"I am a mirror, and I am a reflection, and I am a shadow, and I am a light, and I am a sound, and I am a silence."
About Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997)
American Beat poet whose Howl (1956) faced an obscenity trial and became a counterculture manifesto. Closely associated with Jack Kerouac (Beat novelist, On the Road) and William S. Burroughs (fellow Beat, Naked Lunch). For an intellectual contrast, see T.S. Eliot, high-modernist poet of The Waste Land — Ginsberg's open-line confessional Beat verse was a deliberate rejection of Eliot's allusive academic formalism — the two halves of mid-century American poetry.
