Thank you, Rajnish. I am humbled. I think that Kerouac was really struggling with that balanced attitude.

Life must be lonely if one cannot feel for others!

Carl, I'm not suggesting for one second that Kerouac didn't have empathy. He was full of it. However, he lived life to the extremes. Hence, saints and sinners.
