“Anytime one tries to take fragments of one's personal mythology and make them understandable to the whole world, one reaches back to the past. It must be dreamed again.”
“A person should try to understand dreams. A person should take warning from them.”
“The past, for everyone, is full of missed chances, surviving to understand them, if not set them straight, is one of the things that makes the next breath worth taking.”
“To the whole world you might be just one person, but to one person you might just be the whole world.”
“Before one may scare the plain people one must first have a firm understanding of the bugaboos that most facilely alarm them. One must study the schemes that have served to do it in the past, and one must study very carefully the technic of the chief current professionals.”
“You think because you understand 'one' you must also understand 'two', because one and one make two. But you must also understand 'and'.”
