I remember my Republican Party as fiscally conservative, as caring about the environment.
Live in a perpetual great astonishment.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
Fear was my father, Father Fear. His look drained the stones.
Too much reality can be a dazzle, a surfeit;Too close immediacy an exhaustion
But when I breath with the birds, The spirit of wrath becomes the spirit of blessings, And the dead begin from their dark to sing in my sleep.
(I measure time by how a body sways. )
You know, dulceata, there are times when I truly believe you are the most frightening person I know. Thank you?
Today the crime novelist has one advantage denied to writers of 'straight' or 'literary' novels. Unlike them he can range over all levels of society, for crime can easily breach the barriers that exist in our stratified society. Because of these barriers the modern literary novel, unlike its 19th-century predecessors, is often confined to the horizontal, dealing only with one class. But crime runs through society from top to bottom, and so the crime novelist can present a fuller picture of the way we live now.
One must not assume that an understanding of science is present in those who borrow the language
When you look back at your career, there are moments that are levels that you hit and you bounce off them.
