More From Paul Fussell

Before this century shall run out, journalism will be the whole press. mankind will write their book day by day, hour by hour, page by page. thought will spread abroad with the rapidity of light--instantly conceived, instantly written, instantly understood at the extremities of the earth.
Running Book Writing
In a perfect world, there would be no censorship, because there would be no judgement. i find the hypocritical aspect disconcerting, to say the least. we can show people being murdered on television, but i'm not able to say "chickenshit" in public. at the same time, i understand that people are afraid. because i think censorship is about fear. it's just fear being projected onto art.

Winning has a joy and discrete purity to it that cannot be replaced by anything else. winning is important to any man's or woman's sense of satisfaction and well-being. winning is not everything; but it is something powerful, indeed beautiful, in itself, something as necessary to the strong spirit as striving is necessary to the healthy character.

And what physicians say about disease is applicable here: that at the beginning a disease is easy to cure but difficult to diagnose; but as time passes, not having been recognized or treated at the outset, it becomes easy to diagnose but difficult to cure. the same thing occurs in affairs of state; for by recognizing from afar the diseases that are spreading in the state (which is a gift given only to the prudent ruler), they can be cured quickly; but when, not having been recognized, they are not recognized and are left to grow to the extent that everyone recognizes them, there is no longer any cure.

I abhor unjust war. i abhor injustice and bullying by the strong at the expense of the weak, whether among nations or individuals. i abhor violence and bloodshed. i believe that war should never be resorted to when, or so long as, it is honorably possible to avoid it. i respect all men and women who from high motives and with sanity and self-respect do all they can to avert war. i advocate preparation for war in order to avert war; and i should never advocate war unless it were the only alternative to dishonor.

Detachment, lack of sentimentality, originality, a lot of things that sound rather empty. i know what they mean. let's say, "visual impact" may not mean much to anybody. i could point it out though. i mean it's a quality that something has or does not have. coherence. well, some things are weak, some things are strong.
