effort dry quiet
I thought, when I came upon her, that I was seizing hold of life... Instead I lost hold of life completely. I reached out for something to attach myself to - and I found nothing. But in reaching out, in the effort to grasp, to attach myself, left high and dry as I was, I nevertheless found something I had not looked for - myself.
destiny men work-out
Every man is working out his destiny in his own way and nobody can be of any help except by being kind, generous, and patient.
looks way firsts
You can look at things all your life and not see them really. This ‘seeing’ is, in a way, a ‘not seeing,’ if you follow me. It is more of a search for something, in which, being blindfolded, you develop the tactile, the olfactory, the auditory senses —and thus see for the first time.
art self practice
The practice of any art demands more than 'mere savoir faire'. One must not only be in love with what one does, one must also know how to make love. In love self is obliterated. Only the beloved counts.
soul littles nests
I like the one about the little soulworms that fly out of the nest for the resurrection.
damage-is-done joy asking

Sin, guilt, neurosis; they are one and the same, the fruit of the tree of knowledge.
work believe ambition
If men cease to believe that they will one day become gods then they will surely become worms.
men forever humanity
The man who is forever disturbed about the condition of humanity either has no problems of his own or has refused to face them.
running lying book
She may be lying in bed reading a book, she may be making love with a prize fighter, or she may be running like mad through a field of stubble, one shoe one, one shoe off, a man named Corn Cob pursuing her hotly. Wherever she is I am standing in complete darkness; her absence blots me out.
power evil analysis
Analysis brings no curative powers in its train; it merely makes us conscious of the existence of an evil, which, oddly enough, is consciousness.
fear reality atheism
The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look of recognition.
life inspire cylinders
Life is 440 horsepower in a 2-cylinder engine.
found ifs
I found that what I had desired all my life was not to live - if what others are doing is called living - but to express myself.
