Arranged into eight wide-ranging chapters and many sub- chapters, finding the perfect quote for the perfect situation is simple.On literature and poetry: "Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery. I quit such odious subjects as soon as I can".On men and women: "One half the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other".On writing novels: "An artist cannot do anything slovenly".
