BEST QUOTES OF FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS
“My attorney had never been able to accept the notion, often espoused by former drug abusers, that you can get a lot higher without drugs than with them, and neither have I for that matter.”– Raoul Duke
“I’m a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.”– Raoul Duke
“All energy flows according to the whims of the Great Magnet. What a fool I was to defy him.”– Raoul Duke
“Nothing. Never mind, it was all a big joke. Actually, I’m poolside at the Flamingo right now, talking though a portable phone some dwarf brought out from the casino. I have total credit here. DON’T come anywhere near this place, you bastard. Foreigners aren’t welcome. ”– Raoul Duke
“If I put you in the pool right now you’ll sink like a god damn stone. You took too much man, you took too much, too much. Don’t try and fight it. You’ll get brain bubbles, strokes, aneurisms. You’ll just wither up and die.”– Dr. Gonzo
“Now this was a superior machine. Ten grand worth of gimmicks and high-priced special effects. The rear windows lit up with a touch like frogs in a dynamite pond. The dashboard was full of esoteric lights and dials and meters that I would never understand.”– Raoul Duke
“Total control now. Tooling along the main drag on a Saturday night in Vegas. Two good old boys in a fire-apple red convertible. Stoned. Ripped. Twisted. Good people.”– Raoul Duke
“You people voted for Hubert Humphrey, and you killed Jesus. ”– Raoul Duke
“In some circles, the Mint 400 is a far far better thing than the Super bowl, the Kentucky Derby, and the lower Oakland roller derby finals all rolled into one. This race attracts a very special breed.”– Raoul Duke
“Jesus, bad waves of paranoia, madness, fear and loathing – intolerable vibrations in this place. Get out. The weasels were closing in. I could smell the ugly brutes.”– Raoul Duke
“I was right in the middle of a fucking reptile zoo, and somebody was giving booze to these goddamn things. Won’t be long now before they tear us to shreds.”– Raoul Duke
“Are you ready for that? Checking into a Vegas hotel under a phony name with intent to commit capital fraud and a head full of acid? I sure hope so.”– Dr. Gonzo
“But our trip was different. It was to be a classic affirmation of everything right and true in the national character. A gross physical salute to the fantastic possibilities of life in this country. But only for those with true grit.”– Raoul Duke
“Well, you’ll go straight to the gas chamber for this one. And even if you manage to beat that, they’ll still send you back to Nevada for rape and consensual sodomy. She’s got to go.”– Raoul Duke
“Panic. It crept up my spine like first rising vibes of an acid frenzy. All these horrible realities began to dawn on me. There I was. Alone in Las Vegas, completely twisted on drugs, no cash, no story for the magazine, and on top of everything else, a gigantic god damned hotel bill to deal with. How would Horatio Alger handle this situation? Stay calm. Stay calm.”– Raoul Duke
“Bazooka’s Circus is what the whole hep world would be doing Saturday nights if the Nazis had won the war. This was the Sixth Reich.”– Raoul Duke
“With a bit of luck, his life was ruined forever. Always thinking that just behind some narrow door in all of his favorite bars, men in red woolen shirts are getting incredible kicks from things he’ll never know.”– Raoul Duke
“There he goes. One of God’s own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”– Raoul Duke
“How long could we maintain? I wondered. How long until one of us starts raving and jabbering at this boy? What will he think then? This same lonely desert was the last known home of the Manson family; will he make that grim connection when my attorney starts screaming about bats and huge manta rays coming down on the car? If so, well, we’ll just have to cut his head off and bury him somewhere, ‘because it goes without saying that we can’t turn him loose. He’d report us at once to some kind of outback Nazi law enforcement agency and they’ll run us down like dogs. Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?”– Raoul Duke
“Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. A normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. But he won’t know what to make of your blinker signal that says you are about to turn right. This is to let him know you’re pulling off for a proper place to talk. It will take him a moment to realize that he’s about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it. Brace for the g’s, and fast heel-toe work.”– Raoul Duke
“If the pigs were gathering in Vegas, I felt the drug culture should be represented as well. And there was a certain bent appeal in the notion of running a savage burn on one Las Vegas hotel, and then just wheeling across town and checking into another. Me and a thousand ranking cops from all over America. Why not? Move confidently into their midst.”– Raoul Duke
“You drive. You drive. I think there’s something wrong with me.”– Dr. Gonzo
“One of the things you learn from years of dealing with drug people, is that you can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug. Especially when it’s waving a razor-sharp hunting knife in your eye.”– Raoul Duke
“Quick, like a bunny!”– Raoul Duke
“Hot damn! I never rode in a convertible before!”– Hitchiker
“Is that right? Well… I guess you’re about ready, then, aren’t you?”– Raoul Duke
“We’re your friends. We’re not like the others, man, really.”– Dr. Gonzo
“No more of that talk or I’ll put the fucking leeches on you, understand? (Dr. Gonzo chuckles as the Hitchiker looks nervous) Get in.”– Raoul Duke
“There’s nothing worse than a man in the depths of an Ether binge.”– Raoul Duke
“There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we’d get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.”– Raoul Duke
“There’s a two women fucking a polar bear.”– Raoul Duke
“Don’t tell me these things. Not now man.”– Dr. Gonzo

“Finish the fucking story, man! What Happened?!”– Raoul Duke
“God Bless.”– Lucy
“Oh, Lucy. I met her on the plane. Yeah, she’s a religious freak. I gave her a cap before I realized… Jesus, she’s never even had a drink before.”– Dr. Gonzo
“Well… it’ll probably work out. We can keep her loaded and peddle her ass at the drug convention. Yeah. She’s perfect for this gig. These cops will go fifty bucks a head to beat her into submission and then gang-fuck her. We can set her up in one of these back street motels, hang pictures of Jesus all over the room, then turn these fucking pigs loose on her. Hell, she’s strong, man. She’ll hold her own. ”– Raoul Duke
“Jesus Christ. I knew you were sick but I never expected to hear you actually say that kind of stuff, you filthy bastard.”– Dr. Gonzo
“Straight economics, man. This girl is a godsend. Shit, she can make us a grand a day.”– Raoul Duke
“That’s ugly, man. Stop talking like that.”– Dr. Gonzo
“I figure she can do about four at a time. If we keep her full of acid that’s more like two grand a day. Maybe three.”– Raoul Duke
“Hold on, man. What if I just jump you and beat the dog shit out of you? Would that make you feel better? Your filthy bastard.”– Dr. Gonzo
“All right, listen to me. In a few hours, she’ll probably be sane enough to work herself into some kind of towering Jesus-based rage at the hazy recollection of being seduced by some kind of cruel Samoan who fed her liquor and LSD, dragged her to a Vegas hotel room and then savagely penetrated every orifice in her little body with his throbbing, uncircumcised member.”– Dr. Gonzo
“We can’t stop here. This is bat country!”– Raoul Duke
“I knew it you’re a goddamn narcotics agent.”– Raoul Duke
“Step right up and shoot the pasties off the nipples of a 10-foot bull dyke.”– Carnie Talker

“We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold.”– Raoul Duke
“We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half-full of cocaine and a whole galaxy of multicolored uppers, downers, screamers laughers…. Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls [….] But the only thing that worried me was the ether. There is nothing in this world more helpless and irresponsible than a man in the depths of an ether binge.”– Raoul Duke
“There was madness in any direction, at any hour. You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning.”– Raoul Duke
“You can turn your back on a person, but, never turn your back on a drug. Especially when it’s waving a razor-sharp hunting knife in your eye.”– Raoul Duke
“You better take care of me Lord, if you don’t you’re gonna have me on your hands.”– Raoul Duke
“We’ve gotta get out of here. I think I’m getting the fear man.”– Dr. Gonzo
“Strange memories on this nervous night in Las Vegas. Five years later? Six? It seems like a lifetime, or at least a main era – -the kind of peak that never comes again. San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run, but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant.”– Raoul Duke
“There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the Bay, then up the Golden Gate or down 101 to Los Altos or La Honda. You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning.”– Raoul Duke
“And that, I think, was the handle – -that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting – -on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark – -the place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.”– Raoul Duke
“History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of “history” it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time – and which never explain, in retrospect, what actually happened.”– Raoul Duke
“Holy Jesus. What are these goddamn animals?”– Raoul Duke
“A drug person can learn to handle such things as seeing their dead grandmother crawling up their leg with a knife in her teeth. But no one should be asked to deal with this trip.”– Raoul Duke
“Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Your normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop-heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow.”– Raoul Duke
“We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like.”– Raoul Duke
“I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.”– Raoul Duke
“Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around us, and the sky was full with what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming.”– Raoul Duke
“What are these goddamn animals?”– Holy Jesus
“Did you say something?”– Dr. Gonzo
“Hum? Never mind. It’s your turn to drive.”– Raoul Duke
“No point in mentioning these bats, I thought. Poor bastard will see them soon enough.”– Raoul Duke
“It’s okay. He’s just admiring the shape of your skull.”– Dr. Gonzo
“Perhaps, if I explained things, he’d rest easy.”– Raoul Duke
“I want you to understand that this man at the wheel is my attorney. He’s not just some dingbat I found on the strip, man. He’s a foreigner. I think he’s probably Samoan. But that doesn’t matter, though, does it? Are you prejudiced?”– Raoul Duke
“Hell no.”– Hitchhiker
“I didn’t think so. Because in spite of his race, this man is very valuable to me. Oh, shit. I forgot about the beer. You want one? ”– Raoul Duke
“No.”– Hitchhiker
“How ’bout some ether? ”– Raoul Duke
“What? ”– Hitchhiker

“Let’s take the elevator, man.”– Dr. Gonzo
“No, that’s just what they want us to do. Cram us into a little metal box and drag us down to the basement.”– Raoul Duke
“Those of us that had been up all night were in no mood for coffee and donuts, we wanted strong drink. We were, after all, the absolute cream of the national sporting press.”– Raoul Duke
“As your attorney, I advise you to take a hit out of the little brown flask in my shaving kit. ”– Dr. Gonzo
“My name… is, uh, Raoul Duke. I’m on the list, that’s for sure. I have my attorney with me and I realize of course that his name is not on that list, but we must have that suite! You see, this man is actually my driver. Just check the list and you’ll see. What’s the score here? What’s next? ”– Raoul Duke
“Our vibrations were getting nasty. But why? I was puzzled, frustrated. Was there no communication in this car? Had we deteriorated to the level of dumb beasts? ”– Raoul Duke
“Don’t f*** with me now, man, I am Ahab. ”– Raoul Duke
“I wouldn’t dare go to sleep with you wandering around with a head full of acid, wanting to slice me up with that goddamn knife. ”– Raoul Duke

“Last name? I’d rather not say. My brother’s in politics.”– Raoul Duke
“Those two men in the dock they gave me the LSD and they took me to the hotel. I don’t know what they done to me, but I remember it was horrible.”–Lucy
“They gave you what? ”– Judge
“Castration! Double castration!”– Judge
“You’ve gone all sideways, man.”– Raoul Duke
“What kind of rat bastard psychotic would play that song right now, at this moment?”– Raoul Duke
“Ah, devil ether. It makes you behave like the village drunkard in some early Irish novel. Total loss of all basic motor function. Blurred vision, no balance, numb tongue. The mind recoils in horror, unable to communicate with the spinal column. Which is interesting because you can actually watch yourself behaving in this terrible way, but you can’t control it.”– Raoul Duke
“Our vibrations were getting nasty. But why? Was there no communication in this car? Had we deteriorated to the level of dumb beasts?”– Raoul Duke
“Sounds like big trouble. You’re going to need plenty of legal advice before this thing is over. As your attorney, I advise you to rent a very fast car with no top. And you’ll need the cocaine. Tape recorder for special messages. Acapulco shirts. Get the hell out of L.A. for at least 48 hours. ”–Dr. Gonzo
“What was I doing here? What was the meaning of this trip? Was I just roaming around in a drug frenzy of some kind? Or had I really come out here to Las Vegas to work on a story? Who are these people, these faces? Where do they come from? They look like caricatures of used car dealers from Dallas, and sweet Jesus, there were a hell of a lot of them at 4:30 on a Sunday morning, still humping the American dream, that vision of the big winner somehow emerging from the last minute pre-dawn chaos of a stale Vegas casino.”– Raoul Duke
“Who are these people? These faces? Where did they come from? They look like characters of used car dealers from Dallas, and sweet Jesus there are a hell of a lot of them at 4:30 on a Sunday morning still humping the American dream.”– Raoul Duke
“Music. Turn it up. Put that tape on.”– Dr. Gonzo
“What tape?”– Raoul Duke
“Jefferson Airplane, “White Rabbit”. I want a rising sound.”– Dr. Gonzo
“You’re doomed. I’m leaving here in two hours and then they’re going to come up here and beat the mortal shit out of you with big saps. Right there in that tub.”– Raoul Duke
“I dig my own graves. Green water and the White Rabbit. Put it on.”– Dr. Gonzo
“OK. But do me one last favor, will you. Can you give me two hours? That’s all I ask – just two hours to sleep before tomorrow. I suspect it’s going to be a very difficult day.”– Raoul Duke
“The possibility of physical and mental breakdown is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.”– Raoul Duke
“You can’t park your car here.”– Parking Attendant
“Why not? Is this not a reasonable place to park?”– Raoul Duke
“Park? You’re on the middle of the sidewalk.”– Parking Attendant
“What the hell are you doing? You can’t park here!”– Parking Attendant
“It seemed like a reasonable place to park, plenty of space. I’d been looking for a parking spot for what seemed like a very long time. Too long. I was about ready to abandon the car and call a taxi… but then, yes, we had found this space. Which had turned out to be the sidewalk in front of the main entrance to the Desert Inn. I had run over so many kerbs by this time, that I hadn’t even noticed this last one. But now we found ourselves in a position that was hard to explain… blocking the entrance, thugs yelling at us, bad confusion.”– Raoul Duke
“We want this car parked! I’m an old friend of Debbie’s. I used to romp with her.”– Dr. Gonzo
“Cows are gonna kill me. Bisexuals are gonna kill me. Let’s get out of here. Where’s the elevator?”– Dr. Gonzo
“We are all wired into a survival trip now. No more of the speed that fueled that 60’s. That was the fatal flaw in Tim Leary’s trip. He crashed around America selling “consciousness expansion” without ever giving a thought to the grim meat-hook realities that were lying in wait for all the people who took him seriously… All those pathetically eager acid freaks who thought they could buy Peace and Understanding for three bucks a hit. But their loss and failure is ours too. What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole life-style that he helped create… a generation of permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the essential old-mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody… or at least some force – is tending the light at the end of the tunnel.”– Raoul Duke
“Who said anything about carving you up, man? I just wanted to carve a Z into your forehead.”–Dr. Gonzo
“That bastard isn’t gonna get away with this. I mean, what is going on in this country when a scum sucker like that can get away with sandbagging a doctor of journalism?”– Raoul Duke
“In some circles, the Mint 400 is a far far better thing than the super bowl, the Kentucky Derby, and the lower Oakland roller derby finals all rolled into one. ”– Raoul Duke
“Did you see the look on his face? He was lying to us! I could see it in his eyes.”– Dr. Gonzo
“What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole lifestyle that he helped create. A generation of permanent cripples who never understood the mystic fallacy of the acid culture a desperate assumption that somebody or at least some force, was tending the light at the end of the tunnel. There was only one road back to L.A. – Route 15. Then onto the Hollywood Freeway, into obscurity. Just another freak, in the freak kingdom.”– Raoul Duke
“You’re not Portuguese, man!”– Raoul Duke
“She’s doing her master’s thesis on… well, Barbra Streisand.”– Raoul Duke
“We won’t make the nut unless we have unlimited credit.”–Dr. Gonzo
“Jesus Christ, we will, man. You Samoans are all the same. You have no faith in the essential decency of the white man’s culture.”– Raoul Duke
“Yeah, look at me. Those are beer bottles. And I’m speeding. And I knew it was illegal and I did it anyways. Look at me, I’m a f***in’ criminal.”– Raoul Duke
