Beware the autumn people

The important thing of any time you live in is to be in love yourself. You float above your time then. It's what you want that counts, not what your time wants.

We are anthill men upon an anthill world.

I can write faster on a typewriter than you can on a computer. I do 120 words a minute, and you can't do that on a computer.

In your reading, find books to improve your color sense, your sense of shape and size in the world.

Let the world burn through you. Throw the prism light, white hot, on paper.

People want to be happy, isn't that right? Haven't you heard it all your life? I want to be happy, people say. Well, aren't they? Don't we keep them moving, don't we give them fun? That's all we live for, isn't it? For pleasure, for titillation? And you must admit our culture provides plenty of these.
