Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946

"Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein With Two Shorter Stories"

This does not mean steadying
and despair, it means no more than the tiniest the very tiniest example
of a blot and a simple exercise in righteousness and no excuse.
The season which is free and the season which is the same is so firm, is
so particular, it is so begun that necessarily there are circumstances.
What is a word that says resemblance. The word is so seen that there is
nation and a nation and nations and in nations. The sight of all of it
is not a circus it is not even a parting, it is more than that, it is
all.
So the inclination scatters and the regret paces and the stirring
cinders stick where they are. And the little tag is empty and the larger
couch is simple and a discharge, every discharge is within matter.
Compliance, what is compliance, it is authority and retort and a medium
declaration of fitness and agility and solemn use of patience. All this
does not disease a stomach or distress a vaccination, it does not even
halt admiringly.
The time was splendid, any single nation was not of a speed that showed
slackening and regular expulsion. More of it was renounced and a slave a
real slave is somnolent, a real slave rests in potatos and anything
onion.
A shadow, a living shadow is in quantity and design and distribution. A
regretted shadow is in organisation and distribution and retribution.
Any shadow is famous and any face is soon painting.
