My Objection To The Church Isn't That The Preachers Are Cruel, Hypocritical, Actually Wicked, Though Some Of Them Are That, Too - Think Of How Many Are Arrested For Selling Fake Stock, For Seducing 14-year-old Girls In Orphanages Under Their Care, For Arson, For Murder. An It Isn't So Much That The Church Is In Bondage To Big Business And Doctrines As Laid Down By Millionaires - Though A Lot Of Churches Are That, Too. My Chief Objection Is That 99% Of Sermons And Sunday School Teachings Are So Agonizingly Dull.

Writers Kid Themselves-about Themselves And Other People. Take The Talk About Writing Methods. Writing Is Just Work-there's No Secret. If You Dictate Or Use A Pen Or Type With Your Toes-it Is Just Work.

Every Compulsion Is Put Upon Writers To Become Safe, Polite, Obedient, And Sterile.

The Most Important Part Of Living Is Not The Living But The Pondering Upon It.
