The puritan, of course, is not entirely devoid of aesthetic feeling. he has a taste for good form; he responds to style; he is even capable of something approaching a purely aesthetic emotion. but he fears this aesthetic emotion as an insinuating distraction from his chief business in life: the sober consideration of the all-important problem of conduct. art is a temptation, a seduction, a lorelei, and the good man may safely have traffic with it when it is broken to moral uses--in other words, when its innocence is pumped out of it, and it is purged of gusto.

Public taste changes and the aesthetic of a culture changes over time, so the idea isn't to appeal to the aesthetic of the moment and what people will like right now; the idea is to somehow keep yourself in the public memory so that as taste evolves it will eventually come to embrace your thing. so, it's about writing to be remembered rather than writing to be liked.

Aesthetic racism is almost always a sign of inexperience. those who have not made their way far enough into the world of amorous delights judge women only by what can be seen. but those who really know women understand that the eye reveals only a minute fraction of what a woman can offer us. when god bade mankind be fruitful and multiply, doctor, he was thinking of the ugly as well as of the beautiful. i am convinced i might add, that the aesthetic criterion does not come from god but from the devil. in paradise no distinction was made between ugliness and beauty.

The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. an airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. a helicopter does not want to fly. it is maintained in the air by a variety of forces and controls working in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously. there is no such thing as a gliding helicopter.

Here’s what i know about the realm of possibility— it is always expanding, it is never what you think it is. everything around us was once deemed impossible. from the airplane overhead to the phones in our pockets to the choir girl putting her arm around the metalhead. as hard as it is for us to see sometimes, we all exist within the realm of possibility. most of the limits are of our own world’s devising. and yet, every day we each do so many things that were once impossible to us.

We went on stage with the jefferson airplane, jim started singing with grace slick and hugging her. then he danced off the stage, went back into the dressing room and passed out cold.

I hope you either take up parachute jumping or stay out of single motored airplanes at night.

I once saw a photograph of a large herd of wild elephants in central africa seeing an airplane for the first time, and all in a state of wild collective terror... as, however, there were no journalists among them, the terror died down when the airplane was out of sight.
