More From H. P. Lovecraft

You say you are a nameless man. you are not to your wife and to your child. you will not long remain so to your immediate colleagues if you can answer their simple questions when they come into your office. you are not nameless to me. do not remain nameless to yourself — it is too sad a way to be. know your place in the world and evaluate yourself fairly, not in terms of the naïve ideals of your own youth, nor in terms of what you erroneously imagine your teacher's ideals are.

I thought i could capture the stories of the city on paper. i thought i could write about the horrors of the city. horror stories you see. i tell you i didn't have to look far for material. everywhere i looked, there were stories hidden there in the dark corners. . . . i wrote and still there were more. . . . no one would publish them. 'too horrible,' they said. 'sick mind,' they said. i thought i could write about the horrors of the city but the horror is too big and it goes on forever.
