More quotes by Gertrude Stein
I tell you old and young are better than tired middle-aged, nothing is so dead dead-tired, dead every way as middle-aged.
Gertrude Stein
When moneys in a purse in my own pocket / It means wealth.
Gertrude Stein
That is what you are. That's what you all are...All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.
Gertrude Stein
An audience is pleasant if you have it, it is flattering and flattering is agreeable always, but if you have an audience the being an audience is their business, they are the audience you are the writer, let each attend to their own business.
Gertrude Stein
I have been the creative literary mind of the century.

Water astonishing and difficult altogether makes a meadow and a stroke.
Gertrude Stein
Argument is to me the air I breathe. Given any proposition, I cannot help believing the other side and defending it.
Gertrude Stein
It is always a mistake to be plain-spoken.
Gertrude Stein
How do you like what you have. This is a question that anybody can ask anybody. Ask it.
Gertrude Stein
You have to know what you want. And if it seems to take you off the track, don't hold back, because perhaps that is instinctively where you want to be. And if you hold back and try to be always where you have been before, you will go dry.
Gertrude Stein
There is no beginning to an end / But there is a beginning and an end / To beginning.
Gertrude Stein
It is a difficult thing to like anybody else's ideas of being funny.
Gertrude Stein
Remarks aren't literature.
Gertrude Stein
Coffee is real good when you drink it gives you time to think. It's a lot more than just a drink it's something happening. Not as in hip, but like an event, a place to be, but not like a location, but like somewhere within yourself. It gives you time, but not actual hours or minutes, but a chance to be, like be yourself, and have a second cup.
Gertrude Stein
A masterpiece... may be unwelcome but it is never dull.
Gertrude Stein
To complicate things in new ways, that is really very easy but to see things in new ways, that is difficult and that is why genius is so rare.
Gertrude Stein
There is no passion more dominant and instinctive in the human spirit than the need of the country to which one belongs.... The time comes when nothing in the world is so important as a breath of one's own particular climate. If it were one's last penny it would be used for that return passage.
Gertrude Stein
