Everything can be learned, including, to a very large extent, to be what you are not. you can learn to be pretty if you are plain, charming if you are dull, thin if you are fat, youthful if you are aging, how to write though you are inarticulate, how to make money though you are not good with figures.

Everything Can Be Learned, Including, To A

Henry Anatole Grunwald
Everything can be learned, including, to a very large extent, to be what you are not. you can learn to be pretty if you are plain, charming if you are dull, thin if you are fat, youthful if you are aging, how to write though you are inarticulate, how to make money though you are not good with figures.

Writing Dull Aging

More From Henry Anatole Grunwald

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
Peter was dull; he was at first dull; - oh, so dull - so very dull! whether he talked, wrote, or rehearsed - still with his dulness was he cursed - dull -beyond all conception - dull.
Stupid People Dull
I think it's very pretty. can it be pretty if no one thinks it's pretty? i think it's pretty. if you're the only one? that's pretty pretty. and what about the boys? don't you want them to think you're pretty? i wouldn't want a boy to think i was pretty unless he was the kind of boy who thought i was pretty.
Boys Thinking Want
Do you think it interests me that this painting represents two figures? these two figures existed, they exist no more. the sight of them gave me an initial emotion, little by little their real presence grew indistinct they became a fiction for me, then they disappeared, or rather, were turned into problems of all kinds. for me they are no longer two figures but shapes and colours, don't misunderstand me, shapes and colours, though, that sum up the idea of the two figures and preserve the vibration of their existence.
Real Thinking Ideas
Fat is a barrier, a bellicose statement to others that, to some, justifies hostility in kind. the world says to the fat person, "your fatness is an affront to me, so we have the right to treat you as offensively as you appear." fat is not merely viewed as another type of tissue, but as a diagnostic sign, a personal statement, and a measure of personality. too little fat and we see you as being antisocial, fearful and sexless. too much fat and we see you as slothful, stupid, and sexually hung up.
Stupid Food Personality
I don't know what i can do about the aging. yes, i am aging. oh my god, i'm aging all the time. it's like those flowers that wilt in front of you in time-lapse films. but what can i possibly do? look like a lunatic?
