More from Allen Ginsberg
"We're in a situation where we have to create our own culture, because we're not getting it from the mainstream."
"The message is: Widen the area of consciousness."
"The future is now, and the past is now, and the present is now, and we are all part of it."
"I am a mystery, and I am a secret, and I am a riddle, and I am a paradox, and I am a contradiction, and I am a truth."
"I'm a great believer in the power of love, and the power of compassion, and the power of forgiveness."
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.
