Switzerland is a small, steep
country, much more up and down than
sideways, and is all stuck over with
large brown hotels built on the
cuckoo clock style of architecture.
* My attitude toward punctuation is
that it ought to be as conventional
as possible. The game of golf would
lose a good deal if croquet mallets
and billiard cues were allowed on
the putting green. You ought to be
able to show that you can do it a
good deal better than anyone else
with the regular tools before you
have a license to bring in your own
improvements.

* God knows, people who are paid to
have attitudes toward things,
professional critics, make me sick;
camp-following eunuchs of
literature. They won't even whore.
They're all virtuous and sterile.
And how well meaning and high
minded. But they're all
camp-followers.
* I wonder what your idea of heaven
would be — A beautiful vacuum filled
with wealthy monogamists. All
powerful and members of the best
families all drinking themselves to
death. And hell would probably an
ugly vacuum full of poor polygamists
unable to obtain booze or with
chronic stomach disorders that they
called secret sorrows.

* To me a heaven would be a big bull
ring with me holding two barrera
seats and a trout stream outside
that no one else was allowed to fish
in and two lovely houses in the
town; one where I would have my wife
and children and be monogamous and
love them truly and well and the
other where I would have my nine
beautiful mistresses on 9 different
floors and one house would be fitted
up with special copies of the Dial
printed on soft tissue and kept in
the toilets on every floor and in
the other house we would use the
American Mercury and the New
Republic.
* Write me at the Hotel Quintana,
Pamplona, Spain. Or don't you like
to write letters. I do because it's
such a swell way to keep from
working and yet feel you've done
something.

* The good parts of a book may be
only something a writer is lucky
enough to overhear or it may be the
wreck of his whole damn life — and
one is as good as the other.
* That terrible mood of depression
of whether it's any good or not is
what is known as The Artist's
Reward.
* I've been in love (truly) with
five women, the Spanish Republic and
the 4th Infantry Division.
