More From Doris Lessing

Literature cannot develop between the categories "permitted"—"not permitted"—"this you can and that you can't." literature that is not the air of its contemporary society, that dares not warn in time against threatening moral and social dangers, such literature does not deserve the name of literature; it is only a facade. such literature loses the confidence of its own people, and its published works are used as waste paper instead of being read. -letter to the fourth national congress of soviet writers
Time Air Names
I think if i have one message, one thing before i die that most of the world would know, it would be that the event does not determine how to respond to the event. that is a purely personal matter. the way in which we respond will direct and influence the event more than the event itself.

Christ and the life of christ is at this moment inspiring the literature of the world as never before, and raising it up a witness against waste and want and war. it may confess him, as in tolstoi's work it does, or it may deny him, but it cannot exclude him; and in the degree that it ignores his spirit, modern literature is artistically inferior. in other words, all good literature is now christmas literature.

Literature must become party literature. down with unpartisan litterateurs! down with the superman of literature! literature must become a part of the general cause of the proletariat.
Party Literature Causes
It seems to me that literature is giving way a little bit to the immediacy of other diversions, other forms of entertainment. what will it be in fifty years? i don't know. will there be printed books? probably, but i'm not sure. there's always going to be literature, though. i believe that. i think literature has a way of getting deep into people and being essential. literature has its own powers.

The secret of the world is the tie between person and event. person makes event and event person.

Happiness is not on my list of priorities. i just deal with day-to-day things. if i'm happy, i'm happy – and if i'm not, i don't know the difference... knowing that you are the person you were put on this earth to be – that's much more important than just being happy.
Knowing Differences Priorities

Venice is the perfect place for a phase of art to die. no other city on earth embraces entropy quite like this magical floating mall.

In america there's lot of cool cities, but in canada there's, like, well, vancouver, toronto and halifax may be cool, but they're so expensive. montreal is the only city that's affordable but also has buses and culture.
