Life Must Go On, Even If It's

The Novel Can't Compete With Cars, The Movies, Television, And Liquor. A Guy Who's Had A Good Feed And Tanked Up On Good Wine Gives His Old Lady A Kiss After Supper And His Day Is Over. Finished.

We Never Change. Neither Our Socks Nor Our Masters Nor Our Opinions, Or We're So Slow About It That It's No Use. We Were Born Loyal And That's What Killed Us! Soldiers Free Of Charge, Heroes For Everyone Else, Talking Monkeys, Tortured Words, We Are The Minions Of King Misery...it's Not A Life.

One Can't Relive One's Life. Forgiveness Is Not What's Difficult; One's Always Too Ready To Forgive. And It Does No Good, That's Obvious.

The Biggest Defeat In Every Department Of Life Is To Forget, Especially The Things That Have Done You In, And To Die Without Realizing How Far People Can Go In The Way Of Crumminess. When The Grave Lies Open Before Us, Let's Not Try To Be Witty, But Record The Worst Of Human Viciousness We've Seen Without Changing One Word. When That's Done, We Can Curl Up Our Toes And Sink Into The Pit. That's Work Enough For A Lifetime.

Philosophizing Is Simply One Way Of Being Afraid, A Cowardly Pretense That Doesn't Get You Anywhere.
