ash-reading

I’ve often been criticized in England because I use a lot of material that I’ve found in books rather than “real life” whatever that might be. Reading books is quite as real as any other part of my life; therefore I can use the material, wherever it may come from.

Thought:

“A cushion has that cover. Supposing you do not like to change, supposing it is very clean that there is no change in appearance, supposing that there is regularity and a costume is that any the worse than an oyster and an exchange. Come to season that is there any extreme use in feather and cotton. Is there not much more joy in a table and more chairs and very likely roundness and a place to put them.”

Gertrude Stein | “A Substance in a Cushion”
