Kindle Notes & Highlights
Disaster demanded a new dawn. Only new thinking can lead to a new dawn.
The people sometimes demand change. They almost never demand art. As a consequence, art stands in a dubious relation to necessity – and to time itself.
Watching this manic desire to make or grow or do ‘something’, that now seems to be consuming everybody, I do feel comforted to discover I’m not the only person on this earth who has no idea what life is for, nor what is to be done with all this time aside from filling it.
Making small talk is an art, and never to be despised just because you yourself dread making it.
