Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946

"Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein With Two Shorter Stories"


Saving money, saving if from an occasion and saving it when there is a
change of hymning, changing the whole escape that is not a rhapsody, it
is the place of thunder. The sale and the water, the whole hating of
argument and agreement these are not changing with winter, winter does
not need rain, it does not need any day, it needs tunneling. All the
same there is a difference. There cannot help being a difference and in
any case there is no shame, there is no authority, there is no habit,
there is nothing, that is to say that is not the way they are feeling
about it. Not at all. What they are feeling is this. They are feeling
that the time is there where it was and that not being so they are
certainly sure that the obligation is not pressing. That is what they
are feeling and in any case there is no hesitation. Hesitation does not
take time, why should they take time, they do not use that argument,
they are not so to speak exchanged.
Very well, supposing that the time which is spent is so spent that there
is memory, suppose this, cause no gloom and have success, what does that
mean, that means nothing. To mean that there must be some authority and
what does authority mean, authority means no more yellow color as yellow
is the color that is chosen and no slight is necessary. If no slight is
necessary then there is a center piece.
