June 17, 1932
I drank with E.E. Cummings till five in the morning–a simply heavenly spree.
Cummings' conversation (in its drunken fantastic aspects) permits no interchange–
it is a dazzling, glittering spectacle, a parade of wonders and fantastic nonsense


October 3, 1932
An artist’s own conviction is the most convincing thing in the world
and no harder to get over than a lie.
