What seems nasty, painful, evil can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind.
Henry Miller
Image
In expanding the field of knowledge we but increase the horizon of ignorance.

Who hates the Jews more than the Jew?
Henry Miller
Image
It is silly to go on pretending that under the skin we are brothers. The truth is more likely that under the skin we are all cannibals, assassins, traitors, liars and hypocrites.

Image
I am positively against all this crap which is carried on first in the name of this thing, then in the name of that. I believe only in what is active, immediate, and personal.
Henry Miller
Image
The great work must inevitably be obscure, except to the very few, to those who like the author himself are initiated into the mysteries. Communication then is secondary: it is perpetuation which is important. For this only one good reader is necessary.
