    “They danced down the streets like dingledodies, and I shambled after as  I’ve been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the  only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad  to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the  ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn…”
