“It esd s local and I intended to sleep on the beach at Santa Barbara that night and carch either another local to San Luis Obsipo and the next morning por the firstc;ass freight all the way to San Fransosco at seven p.m. Somewhere near Camarillo where Charlie Parker’d been mad and relaxed back to normal health, a thin old little bum climbed into my gondola as we headed into sidding to give a train right of way and looked surprised to see me there.” (darma Bumns page 3-4)
I liked this quote because it mimicked what we were talking about in class. The whole dropping out idea. This guy isint living with regrets like so many people in the fifties . This guy dosnt live in suburbia with a wife and children going to work but really just living unhappily this guys is doing exactly what everyone else isn’t doing.l He is living day to day instead of pay check to pay check. Hes hopping trains and living sparingly but he seems happy with it.
