Moore, Marianne. Perspicuous opacity. In : The Nation ; no 143 (24 Oct. 1936). [Review of The Geographical History of America, or The Relation of Human Nature to the Human Mind, by Gertrude Stein, with an introduction by Thornton Wilder (Random House).]
To like reading and writing is to like words. The root meaning, as contrasted with the meaning in use, is like the triple painting on projecting lamellae, which – according as one stands in front, at the right, or at the left – shows a different picture. "In China china is not china it is an earthen ware. In China there is no need of China because in china china is china."
