William S. Burroughs
212 citations

As a young child I wanted to be a writer because writers were rich and famous. They lounged around Singapore and Rangoon smoking opium in a yellow pongee silk suit. They sniffed cocaine in Mayfair and they penetrated forbidden swamps with a faithful native boy and lived in the native quarter of Tangier smoking hashish and languidly caressing a pet gazelle. ✨ William S. Burroughs (2007). Word Virus: The William S. Burroughs Reader, p.16, Grove/Atlantic, Inc.
