There isn't any me. I'm you. Don't make up a separate me.

The people that I liked and had not met went to the big cafes because they were lost in them and no one noticed them and they could be alone in them and be together.

I always try to write on the principle of the iceberg. There is seven-eighths of it underwater for every part that shows.

It is appearances, characteristics and performance that make a man love an airplane, and they, are what put emotion into one. You love a lot of things if you live around them, but there isn't any woman and there isn't any horse, nor any before nor any after, that is as lovely as a great airplane, and men who love them are faithful to them even though they leave them for others. A man has only one virginity to lose in fighters, and if it is a lovely plane he loses it to, there his heart will ever be.

Live the full life of the mind, exhilarated by new ideas, intoxicated by the Romance of the unusual.
