I cannot find any patience for those people who believe that you start writing when you sit down at your desk and pick up your pen and finish writing when you put down your pen again; a writer is always writing, seeing everything through a thin mist of words, fitting swift little descriptions to everything he sees, always noticing. just as i believe that a painter cannot sit down to his morning coffee without noticing what color it is, so a writer cannot see an odd little gesture without putting a verbal description to it, and ought never to let a moment go by undescribed.
Morning Coffee Believe
Once you change your philosophy, you change your thought pattern. once you change your thought pattern, you change your attitude. once you change your attitude, it changes your behavior pattern and then you go on into some action. as long as you gotta sit-down philosophy, you’ll have a sit-down thought pattern, and as long as you think that old sit-down thought you’ll be in some kind of sit-down action.
Attitude Philosophy Thinking
My life is routine. i wake up early in the morning. i brush my teeth. i sit on the floor of the cell i do not go to breakfast. i stare at a gray cement wall. i keep my legs crossed my back straight my eyes forward. i take deep breaths in and out, in and out, and i try not to move. i sit for as long as i can i sit until everything hurts i sit until everything stops hurting i sit until i lose myself in the gray wall i sit until my mind becomes as blank as the gray wall. i sit and i stare and i breathe. i sit and i stare. i breathe.

Think of the beginning of the story of the beginning of everything: adam (without eve and without divine guidance) names the animals. continuing his work, we call stupid people bird-brained, cowardly people chickens, fools turkeys. are these the best names we have to offer? if we can revise the notion of women coming from a rib, can’t we revise our categorizations of the animals that, draped with barbecue sauce, end up as the ribs on our dinner plates — or for that matter, the kfc in our hands?

Depend upon it, the first universal characteristic of all great art is tenderness, as the second is truth. i find this more and more every day: an infinitude of tenderness is the chief gift and inheritance of all the truly great men. it is sure to involve a relative intensity of disdain towards base things, and an appearance of sternness and arrogance in the eyes of all hard, stupid, and vulgar people
