My friends and I in New York City have our own special way of having fun without having to spend much money and most important of all without having to be importuned by formalistic bores, such as, say, a swell evening at the mayor’s ball.- We don’t have to shake hands and we don’t have to make appointments and we feel all right.- We sorta wander around like children.- We walk into parties and tell everybody what we’ve been doing and people think we’re showing off.- They say: ‘Oh look at the beatniks!’
