Tennessee Williams Quotes
One Does Not Escape That Easily From The Seduction Of An Effete Way Of Life. You Cannot Arbitrarily Say To Yourself, I Will Now Continue My Life As It Was Before This Thing, Success, Happened To Me. But Once You Fully Apprehend The Vacuity Of A Life Without Struggle You Are Equipped With The Basic Means Of Salvation. Once You Know This Is True, That The Heart Of Man, His Body And His Brain, Are Forged In A White-hot Furnace For The Purpose Of Conflict (the Struggle Of Creation) And That With The Conflict Removed, Man Is A Sword Cutting Daisies, That Not Privation But Luxury Is The Wolf At The Door And That The Fangs Of This Wolf Are All Little Vanities And Conceits And Laxities That Success Is Heir To - Why, Then With This Knowledge You Are At Least In A Position To Know Where Danger Lies.
