Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein: With Two Shorter Stories
Stein, Gertrude
Experimental fiction, American
Climb and dine and shine and show a shadow a single tiny blessing, a
decanter, show it in swimming, show it in a pudding, show it in an
aquarium, show it as it is sudden.
Dating a gently soft boiled egg that is boiling does not mean that there
is any hurry or that there is any comparison. Dating it is momentary and
a schedule and it has that sobriety, it has that, it certainly can
devise ways of encouraging more things than have been collected. It
certainly will.
A lameness is no structure, that is enthusiasm, that is liberty and that
too that is a chance.
Labor which is rapid is so silent that there are pins. Is this straight
in summer, it is in winter, it is charming in winter, it is choice in
summer, why is there caution, why is there a chapter.
Pointing in the direction which makes pets and pillows and a flight and
an interval and even more, pointing that way makes a negro say that a
negro has color and is not a stranger, it makes him say out right what
there is to see in lamp light and in a faded china cover and even in a
little bit of carpet. This is so neat and so careful and really
cautious, this is the best example of the change that has made no body
more restless than the best hammer.
It can not be said that one man singly is enough to show that one man
searchingly does cover all. There is no doubt that pushing is pressure
and relaxing is concentration and nobility, nobility is the same. There
is no doubt that something is boundless.
There can be no date backwards and faintly forwards and all together.
There can be no date and there certainly can be no heavy esteem. There
can be no satisfaction and no special cases, there can reasonably be no
minor survey.
All this makes a date and a rescue that is to say green is not so green
and what is delicate is delicate, and doubt sweet doubt is dimpling. The
garden all the garden is triangular and a hand a whole band is a
careless symptom. The change is not ordered, it comes from surviving
vegetation. This which is so obliging and really so attuned to all that
nervousness that makes the final coat a mixed color, all this together
shows the same black. Suppose black is black. Suppose it has a different
color, suppose it has a black color, does it make any difference in
describing, does it even make any difference in recognising a different
thing together, does it even show when it is handsome. These questions
come crowding and after that the time shows that the best way to
disappear is to undertake to refuse to stay and at the same time to go
away, that is to do that when that which is industrious is toilsome and
intelligent.
A strain any strain means that there is no accident and no eye sight,
not even plaintiveness.
To suggest wounding, this is so much mixed with care and with eye
glasses and even with opportunity, can there be negligence when there
are so many willing, can there be mistakes when so many have married and
are marrying, can there be fellow feeling.
