HST Quotes

I just read the "final interview" of HST in Playboy. It's not so much an interview than a series of quotes from an interview.

You should really pick it up, it's some of his best stuff ever.

You should really risk getting "cut off" (whatever "cut off" means in your household) because your copy of Playboy blocked the view of Brad Pitt's abs on the People Magazine on the coffee table.

Here are some of the Hunter Thompson's "TIPS"

"When you push a car off of a cliff and blow it up, be sure to roll the windows down to avoid shrapnel. Also, strip the license plate so you're not billed for cleanup"

"It's extremely bad karma to brag about the things you have gotten away with. You will get what's coming to you."

"That old thing about 'This kid has a lot of potential' will take you a long way. But eventually it has to pay off. Potential will run out-- and it can run out suddenly"

"In the end, it's not so much about how to succeed in life as it is how you survive the life you have chosen"

"You should always be looking around for good friends because they really dress up your life later on"
