Clothing sizes are weird, they go: small, medium, large and then extra large, extra extra large, extra extra extra large. something happened at large, they just gave up. they were like, 'i'm not doing any more adjectives; you just keep putting extras on there.' we could do better than that: small, medium, large, whoa, easy, slow down, stop it, interesting, american.

Just like pharaoh couldn't get a solution to his problem until he talked to moses, or nebuchadnezzar or belshazzar couldn't get a solution to his problem until he talked to daniel, the white man in america today will never understand the race problem or come anywhere near getting a solution to the race problem until he talks to the honorable elijah muhammad.

The solution to a problem - a story that you are unable to finish - is the problem. it isn't as if the problem is one thing and the solution something else. the problem, properly understood = the solution. instead of trying to hide or efface what limits the story, capitalize on that very limitation. state it, rail against it.
Writing Trying Stories
Do not be afraid of large patterns, if properly designed they are more restful to the eye than small ones: on the whole, a pattern where the structure is large and the details much broken up is the most useful...very small rooms, as well as very large ones, look better ornamented with large patterns.

We have reached a moment in our history where we think that every problem in america has to have a federal government solution. every problem in america does not have a federal government solution. in fact, most problems in america do not have a federal government solution and many of them are created by the federal government to begin with.
Thinking Problem Moments
No matter how clear things might become in the forest of story, there was never a clear-cut solution, as there was in math. the role of a story was, in the broadest terms, to transpose a problem into another form. depending on the nature and the direction of the problem, a solution might be suggested in the narrative. tengo would return to the real world with that solution in hand. it was like a piece of paper bearing the indecipherable text of a magic spell. it served no immediate practical purpose, but it contained a possibility.

In the real world, those of us who are most productive, successful, and satisfied focus not on fixing feelings or manipulating thoughts, but on what needs to be done-and then doing it-no matter what thoughts or feelings arise.
