Writing Less Is More

More From Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe

What does labor want? we want more schoolhouses and less jails; more books and less arsenals; more learning and less vice; more leisure and less greed; more justice and less revenge; in fact, more of the opportunities to cultivate our better natures, to make manhood more noble, womanhood more beautiful, and childhood more happy and bright.

Here's the pay paradox that why men earn more explains: men earn more money, therefore men have more power; and men earn more money, therefore men have less power (earning more money as an obligation, not an option). the opposite is true for women: women earn less money, therefore women have less power; and women earn less money, therefore women have more power (the option to raise children, or to not take a hazardous job).

The less you eat, drink and read books; the less you go to the theatre, the dance hall, the public house; the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you save-the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor dust will devour-your capital. the less you are, the more you have; the less you express your own life, the greater is your alienated life-the greater is the store of your estranged being.

Philosophers are people who know less and less about more and more, until they know nothing about everything. scientists are people who know more and more about less and less, until they know everything about nothing.

I try to keep away from being big-headed. that's what causes people to lose the acting thing. they start being commercial, and then they stink for the rest of their lives.

People who are busy and happy don't write diaries; they are too busy living.
Writing People Diaries
When i was first exposed to the films of ingmar bergman, i found them frank and disturbing portraits of the world we live in, but that was not something that displeased me. they were beautiful. i thought people would respond to my plays the way i responded to bergman's films.
