Words Can Never Get At

A Novel Is Really Like A Symphony Where Instrument After Instrument Has To Come In At Its Own Time, And No Other.

The Arts Do Live Continuously, And They Live Literally By Faith; Their Names And Their Shapes And Their Uses And Their Basic Meanings Survive Unchanged In All That Matters Through Times Of Interruption, Diminishment, Neglect; They Outlive Governments And Creeds And The Societies, Even The Very Civilization That Produced Them. They Cannot Be Destroyed Altogether Because They Represent The Substance Of Faith And The Only Reality. They Are What We Find Again When The Ruins Are Cleared Away.

We Do Not Run From The Troubles And Dangers That Are Truly Ours, And It Is Better To Learn What They Are Earlier Than Later, And If We Don't Run From The Others, We Are Fools.

I Want To Go And See The World. I Want To Know The World Like The Palm Of My Hand.
