More From George Sand

By this point, it was clear she wasn't interested in continuing the relationship. what publication on earth would continue a relationship with a writer who would refuse to discuss her work with her editors? what publication would continue to publish a writer who attacked it on tv? what publication would continue to publish a writer who lied about it - on tv and to a washington post reporter? ... it's true: ann is fearless, in person and in her writing. but fearlessness isn't an excuse for crappy writing or crappier behavior.
Writing Editors Scary
Whether the author intended a symbolic resonance to exist in her book is irrelevant. all that matters is whether it's there. because the book does not exist for the benefit of the author, the book exists for the benefit of you. if we as readers can have a bigger and richer experience with the world as a result of reading a symbol and that symbol wasn't intended by the author, we still win.
Book Reading Winning
You will want a book which contains not man's thoughts, but god's - not a book that may amuse you, but a book that can save you - not even a book that can instruct you, but a book on which you can venture an eternity - not only a book which can give relief to your spirit, but redemption to your soul - a book which contains salvation, and conveys it to you, one which shall at once be the saviour's book and the sinner's.

Pain revealed the paltry dimensions of love. the paltry dimensions of everything, in fact, except pain.
Pain Facts Dimensions
With me poetry has been not a purpose, but a passion; and the passions should be held in reverence: they must not they cannot at will be excited, with an eye to the paltry compensations, or the more paltry commendations, of mankind.
Passion Eye Purpose
Nothing detains the reader's attention more powerfully than deep involutions of distress, or sudden vicissitudes of fortune; and these might be abundantly afforded by memoirs of the sons of literature. they are entangled by contracts which they know not how to fulfill, and obliged to write on subjects which they do not understand. every publication is a new period of time, from which some increase or declension of fame is to be reckoned. the gradations of a hero's life are from battle to battle, and of an author's from book to book.

These books have not made george nobler or better or more truly wise. it is just that he likes listening to their voices, the one or the other, acording to his mood. he misuses them quite ruthlessly - despite the respectful way he has to talk about them in public - to put him to bed, to take his mind off the hands of the clock, to relax the nagging of his pyloric spasm, to gossip him out of his melancholy, to trigger the conditioned reflexes of his colon.

I am simply a 'book drunkard.' books have the same irresistible temptation for me that liquor has for its devotee. i cannot withstand them.
Book Writing Temptation
Really, if i'm honest, sci-fi is where my sensibility instinctively goes - i'm a big comic-book fan.

But if we come back, if german men come back, if british men come back, and japs, and french, and all the other men, all of us talking, writing, painting, making movies of heroes, and cockroaches and foxholes and blood, then future generations will always be doomed to future hitlers. it's never occurred to boys to have contempt for wars, to point to soldiers' pictures in history books, laughing at them. if german boys had learned to be contemptuous of violence, hitler would have had to take up knitting to keep his ego warm.
