The New York Times’ obituary for the 27-year-old artist Dash Snow:
Mr. Walls distinguished Mr. Snow from working-class addicts like William S. Burroughs, Herbert Huncke—and himself. “It was like his money never ran out,” Mr. Walls said. “When it came to doing drugs, he could do these marathons for days and days on end. In my day, in Huncke’s day, in Burroughs’s day, when we wanted a fix, we had to go work—we couldn’t just sit around getting high for three straight weeks.”
Kids these days just don’t work like people used to.
