Ken Kesey quote: "People think love is an emotion. Love is good sense."
People think love is an emotion. Love is good sense. Ken Kesey
No, that nurse ain't some kinda monster chicken, buddy, what she is is a ball-cutter. I've seen a thousand of 'em, old and young, men and women. Seen 'em all over the country and in the homes- people who try to make you weak so they can get you to toe the line, to follow their rules, to live like they want you to. And the best way to do this, to get you to knuckle under, is to weaken you by gettin' you where it hurts the worst. Ken Kesey
I'd see him do things that didn't fit with his face or hands, things like painting a picture at OT with real paints on a blank paper with no lines or numbers anywhere on it to tell him where to paint, or like writing letters to somebody in a beautiful flowing hand.

What makes people so impatient is what I can't figure; all the guy had to do was wait. Ken Kesey
I lay in bed the night before the fishing trip and thought it over, about my being deaf, about the years of not letting on I heard what was said, and I wonder if I can ever act any other way again. But I remembered one thing: it wasn't me that started acting deaf; it was people that first started acting like I was too dumb to hear or see or say anything at all. Ken Kesey
I'd think, That ain't me, that ain't my face. It wasn't even me when I was trying to be that face. I wasn't even really me then; I was just being the way I looked, the way people wanted. It don't seem like I ever have been me. Ken Kesey

What makes people so impatient is what I can't figure; all the guy had to do was wait. Ken Kesey
Ken Kesey quote: "In any given situation there will always be more dumb people..."
In any given situation there will always be more dumb people than smart people. We ain't many! Ken Kesey
Ken Kesey quote: "There's a lot of people who don't understand the circle crops..."
There's a lot of people who don't understand the circle crops in England. Pure enigma. Ken Kesey
People don't want other people to get high, because if you get high, you might see the falsity of the fabric of the society we live in. Ken Kesey
Ken Kesey quote: "You don't lead by pointing and telling people some place to..."
You don't lead by pointing and telling people some place to go. You lead by going to that place and making a case. Ken Kesey
