Gertrude Stein

“Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose.”

“There is no there there.”

“You are all a lost generation.”

“America is my country and Paris is my hometown.”

“To write is to write is to write is to write is to write is to write is to write is to write.”

“Silent gratitude isn't very much use to anyone.”

“Money is always there but the pockets change.”

“Coffee is a lot more than just a drink; it's something happening.”

“It takes a lot of time to be a genius, you have to sit around so much doing nothing, really doing nothing.”

“The creator of the new composition in the arts is an outlaw until he is a classic.”

“In the morning there is meaning, in the evening there is feeling.”

“What was the question?”

“A writer's job is to tell the truth.”

“I do want to get rich, but I never want to do what there is to do to get rich.”

“The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning.”

“Remarks are not literature.”

“For a very long time everybody refuses and then almost without a pause everybody accepts.”

“Writers have to have two countries, the one where they belong and the one in which they live.”

“If you can do it, it ain't bragging.”
