"Burnside's been in a lot of weird, and I think it attracts weird people. It's like a shrine to them or something...I like talking about Burnside, it… - Pat Quirk

PAT QUIRK FRUIT OF THE VINE

“I didn’t sell out to the sham system, and I’m telling you that you don’t have to either. Pursue your dreams. Search out your visions. It is worth it. Our mission here is not to pad the fat cat’s wallets, it’s to cram your mind with as much information as it will hold. Being a success is not how big your car or wallet is, it’s how much knowledge you have. I’m not into the scene because it’s controlled. I’m into my own trip, right or wrong. It’s what I have to do. To all of you dicks who quit, a big fuck you. You were on the right track then gave it up, that shows what you are all about. Thanks for skating.” — Pool Dust #24

“Skateboarding is not about following the crowd, it’s blazing your own trail.” — Pool Dust #28
