“So the growing peace, and the most beautiful visions of life, that began three months ago & which were great enough for a Remembrance 10,000,000 words long, the peace has led to a mind filled with work and a soul fortified with the knowledge of the inevitability of loss–and so goodbye sweet journal, adieu calm book, may the best hearts find you.”

–From Jack Kerouac’s “The Unknown Kerouac: Rare, Unpublished and Newly Translated Writings” (Library of America, 2018).
