Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946

"Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein With Two Shorter Stories"

Mrs. Claudel if she believed in dreams as much as
Hattie and had dreamed that her mother was dead would put on mourning.
Some would be surprised that some could dream that their mother was dead
and then not put on mourning. Some would be surprised that any one
having dreamed that their mother was dead could think about then putting
on mourning.
Some people know other ones. This is being a history of kinds of men and
women, when they were babies and then children and then grown men and
women and then old ones and the one and the ones they were in relation
with at any time, at some time.
This is a general leading up to a description of Olive who is an
exception in being one being living. Then there can be a description of
the Pauline group and of the Pauline quality in Ollie and then there can
be a complete description of the Pauline group and there can be a
description of ones who could be ones who are not at all married ones a
whole group of them of hundreds of them, and they grade from Eugenia to
Mabel Arbor who is not like them in being one who could have been one
not being a married one. Then once more one can begin with the Pauline
group and Sophie among them, and then one can go through whole groups of
women to Jane Sands and her relation to men and so to a group of men
and ending up with Paul. Then one can take a fresh start and begin with
Fanny and Helen and run through servants and adolescents to Lucy and so
again to women and to men and how they love, how women love and how they
do not love, how men do not love, how men do love, how women and men do
and do not love and so on to men and women in detail and so on to Simon
as a type of man.
