heeere's johnny

while in malmo, sweden i discovered a copy of patti smith's book 'just kids' in swedish! translations are awesome. there was a quote from j. depp above the title. i have read johnny's prose before and wished he'd write a book. i didn't so much understand what he wrote for 'just kids' but i do understand the awesomeness of this:

On the set of the upcoming installment of Pirates of the Caribbean, Smith asks Depp what it’s like to play the iconic role of Captain Jack Sparrow. “Somebody once asked [Hunter S. Thompson], ‘What is the sound of one hand clapping, Hunter?,’ and he smacked him.
