We create our fate every day . . . most of the ills we suffer from are directly traceable to our own behavior.
Henry MillerTo imagine a new world is to live it daily, each thought, each glance, each step, each gesture, killing and recreating, death always a step in advance. To spit on the past is not enough. To proclaim the future is not enough. One must act as if the past were dead and the future unrealizable.
Henry MillerI feel that America is essentially against the artist, that the enemy of America is the artist, because he stands for individuality and creativeness, and that's un-American somehow.
Henry MillerIt is the American vice, the democratic disease which expresses its tyranny by reducing everything unique to the level of the herd.
