from Pamplona, Spain, July 13, 1924.
The Soul Of Spain
Est moral ce qui fait qu'on se sent bien, et immoral ce qui fait qu'on se sent mal
In the rain in the rain in the rain in the rain in Spain.
Does it rain in Spain?
Oh yes my dear on the contrary and there are no bull fights.
The dancers dance in long white pants
It isn’t right to yence your aunts
Come Uncle, let’s go home.
…
Democracy.
Democracy.
Bill says democracy must go.
Go democracy.
Go
Go
Go
Bill’s father would never knowingly sit down at table with a Democrat.
Now Bill says democracy must go.
Go on democracy.
Democracy is the shit.
Relativity is the shit.

Je ne suis pas un homme de spectacle. La façon de faire des surréalistes, c’est-à-dire d’être constamment sur les tréteaux à manifester, ça ne me concerne pas. J’aime mieux faire les choses, même si ce sont des choses subversives, j’aime mieux les faire dans le calme, un peu comme un anarchiste prépare sa bombe, un petit peu à l’écart...

Ernest Hemingway to Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas
“And you'll always love me won't you?
Yes
And the rain won't make any difference?
No”
Ernest Hemingway
“Courage is grace under pressure.”
