Wisdom is a butterfly / And not a gloomy bird of prey.
Wisdom is a butterfly / And not a gloomy bird of prey.
“I cannot believe that the expression of one’s ideas has anything to do with the making of literature. I don’t believe that ideas are a novelist’s problem. Ideas should be left to the people who have ideas — philosophers, politicians, teachers. Artists can be extremely dull in terms of what they believe, what they say, and what they do in their lives. Writers don’t think.”
Gilbert Sorrentino
