Example moves the world more than doctrine. The great exemplars are the poets of action, and it makes little difference whether they be forces for good or forces for evil. – Henry Miller
We live in the mind, in ideas, in fragments. We no longer drink in the wild outer music of the streets – we remember only. – Henry Miller
Instead of asking How much damage will the work in question bring about? why not ask How much good? How much joy? – Henry Miller
Whenever a taboo is broken, something good happens, something vitalizing. Taboos after all are only hangovers, the product of diseased minds, you might say, of fearsome people who hadnt the courage to live and who under the guise of morality and religion have imposed these things upon us. – Henry Miller
