“I Had Observed That The Men Who Were Most In Life, Who Were Molding Life, Who Were Life Itself, Ate
“I had observed that the men who were most in life, who were molding life, who were life itself, ate little, slept little, owned little or nothing. They had no illusions about duty, or the perpetuation of their kith and kin, or the preservation of the State. They were interested in truth and in truth alone. They recognized only one kind of activity — creation. Nobody could command their services because they had of their own pledged themselves to give all. They gave gratuitously, because that is the only way to give.”
— Henry Miller, The Rosy Crucifixion
