Naked Lunch, William S. Burroughs

    "Rock and Roll adolescent hoodlums storm the streets of all nations. They rush into the Louvre and throw acid on the Mona Lisa's face. They open zoo's, insane asylums, prisons, burst water mains with air hammers, chop the floor out of passenger plane lavatories, shoot out lighthouse's , file elevator cables to one thin wire, turn sewers into water supply, throw sharks and sting rays, electric eels and candiru into swimming pools .......(Candiru, look it up...) in nautical costumes ram the Queen Mary full speed into New York Harbor, play chicken with passenger planes and buses, rush into hospitals in white coats carrying saws and axes and scalpels 3 feet long, throw paralytics out of iron lungs, administer injections with bicycle pumps ..... and they shit on the floor of the United Nations and wipe their ass with treaties, pacts and alliances."
