Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946

"Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein With Two Shorter Stories"

It is a queer thing that singing is a common thing. It
is an amusing thing that two are where they are when they were not
where they were.
If they are what they are and they intend what they do and they offer
what you use and they wear what they wear then it is naturally all that
they mean when they do not say that they are strange every day. They
move the way they go as they do not stay together in not at all leaving
one another. They do not manage it then when they are standing and
mounting anything they are riding. They need not be the last of it all
and they need not have been an irregular thing a thing not regularly
living.
If saying that being is existing is meaning that feeling is existing,
then talking when talking is happening is telling what is being told by
telling. Any sound that is louder or not so loud is one that is
happening when that sound is coming.
It is not necessary that a light that is changing is coming and going.
It is necessary that a sound that is continuing is coming from the two
who are sighing.
Likely to be familiar and not likely to be strange, very likely to be
the same and quite likely to be dark, likely enough to have it light and
very likely to have it strong, any way that is likely is very likely to
be old and every way that is likely is quite likely to be curling and
all that is likely is that it will not be different.
