More quotes by Gertrude Stein
I like the feeling of words doing as they want to do and as they have to do.
Gertrude Stein
I like a thing simple but it must be simple through complication. Everything must come into your scheme, otherwise you cannot achieve real simplicity.
Gertrude Stein
Poetry consists in a rhyming dictionary and things seen.
Gertrude Stein
It is very funny about money. The thing that differentiates man from animals is money. All animals have the same emotions and the same ways as men. Anybody who has lots of animals around knows that. But the thing no animal can do is count, and the thing no animal can know is money.
Gertrude Stein
There are a lot of other things besides nouns.
Gertrude Stein
One must dare to be happy.
Gertrude Stein
There is no there there.
Gertrude Stein
there are many ways of eating, for some eating is living for some eating is dying, for some thinking about ways of eating gives to them the feeling that they have it in them to be alive and to be going on living, to some to think about eating makes them know that death is always waiting that dying is in them.
Gertrude Stein
I am I because my little dog knows me but, creatively speaking the little dog knowing that you are you and your recognising that he knows, that is what destroys creation. That is what makes school.
Gertrude Stein
It is very easy to love alone.
Gertrude Stein
Animals in different countries have different expressions just as the people in different countries differ in expression.
Gertrude Stein
... anybody is as their land and air is. Anybody is as the sky is low or high, the air heavy or clear and anybody is as there is wind or no wind there. It is that which makes them and the arts they make and the work they do and the way they eat and the way they drink and the way they learn and everything.
Gertrude Stein
The creator of the new composition in the arts is an outlaw until he is a classic.
Gertrude Stein
One thing is certain the only thing that makes you younger or older is that nothing can happen that is different from what you expected and when that happens and it mostly does happen everything is different from what you expected then there is no difference between being younger or older.
Gertrude Stein
Nature is commonplace. Imitation is more interesting.
Gertrude Stein
The United States is just now the oldest country in the world, there always is an oldest country and she is it, it is she who is the mother of the twentieth century civilization. She began to feel herself as it just after the Civil War. And so it is a country the right age to have been born in and the wrong age to live in.
Gertrude Stein
I have heard Will Honeycomb say, A Woman seldom Writes her Mind but in her Postscript.
Gertrude Stein
It is better to lose and win, than win and be defeated.
Gertrude Stein
There is a difference between twenty-nine and thirty. When you are twenty-nine it can be the beginning of everything. When you are thirty it can be the end of everything.
Gertrude Stein
Hope in gates, hope in spoons, hope in doors, hope in tables, no hope in daintiness and determination. Hope in dates.
