"People who read me seem to be..." - Quote by Robert Frost

“You're searching...For things that don't exist; I mean beginnings.Ends and beginnings - there are no such things.There are only middles.”

“A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.”

“Don't ever take a fence down until you know why it was put up.”

“The British soldier can stand up to anything except the British War Office.”

“I hate this world, this dream, this horrible nightmare, with its churches and chicaneries, its books and blackguardisms, its fair faces and false hearts, its howling righteousness on the surface and utter hollowness beneath and, above all, its sanctified shopkeeping!”

“It is difficult to believe that even idiots ever succumbed to such transparent contradictions, to such gaudy processions of mere counter-words, to so vast and obvious a nonsensicalitysentence after sentence that has no apparent meaning at all--stuff quite as bad as the worst bosh of Warren Gamaliel Harding.”

“To love beauty is to see light.”

“It is my mind, with its store of images, that gives the world color and sound; and that supremely real and rational certainty which I can "experience" is, in its most simple form, an exceedingly complicated structure of mental images. Thus there is, in a certain sense, nothing that is directly experienced except the mind itself. Everything is mediated through the mind, translated, filtered, allegorized, twisted, even falsified by it. We are . . . enveloped in a cloud of changing and endlessly shifting images.”

“The moment truth is asserted, it becomes false.”
