Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946

"Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein With Two Shorter Stories"

He was not remaining. He was there.
If they all knew that they had met they could say that meeting was not
meaning that all of them were all of them. They did not begin saying
anything. They could be continuing. They were all saying that they had
the likelihood of separating something from everything. They did not say
everything quite enough. Not any of them was always complaining.
It was not an arrangement when they saw that each one lived in a place
where that one was living. They did not separate then. Not any two of
them were living in the same building.
They did not undertake everything. They had what they needed when they
did not refuse anything and they did not refuse anything. They did not
have enough. They were not all of them being there then.
He was the pronouncer who was not undertaking the way to have enough
listen to every one. He could follow then and watch succeeding come to
be existing. He who was not accustomed to something did not lead the
procession as he was walking where he was talking. He was not without
freedom. He was not retaliating.
He had the way which if there was conquest was not forgiving he had the
way of keeping what was not refusing to be increasing. He did not take
enough in taking too much. He did not take plenty and he had it all when
he kept it. He was not denying intending to be asking.
