Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything.
Henry MillerI am a free manโand I need my freedom. I need to be alone. I need to ponder my shame and my despair in seclusion; I need the sunshine and the paving stones of the streets without companions, without conversation, face to face with myself, with only the music of my heart for company. What do you want of me? When I have something to say, I put it in print. When I have something to give, I give it. Your prying curiosity turns my stomach! Your compliments humiliate me! Your tea poisons me! I owe nothing to any one. I would be responsible to God aloneโif He existed!
Henry MillerWe must not just be in the world and above the world, but also of the world. To love it for what it is... is the only task. Avoid it and you are lost. Lose yourself in it, and you are free.
Henry MillerAnd what is the potential man, after all? Is he not the sum of all that is human? Divine, in other words?
