I did my memoir reading guide to On the Road by Jack Kerouac and found it interesting, so I did some research. Here's some info on the Beats for you to peruse:
The Beat Generation (wikipedia)
On the Road (Amazon)
Howl and Other Poems (Amazon)

I hope you like the links^_^now here's some quotes from the Beats:
Jack K.-
“I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till i drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.”
“My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them.”
Allen G.-
“Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness.”
“Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.”
I could only find quote from two Beats, unfortunately. Anyway, leave a comment!
