"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Inducement.

Ruess, Eucalyptus Grove, 1934


I have just acquired the most heart-rending symphony you ever heard, You must come out to my mean hovel Saturday night to hear it, for I have to share it with you.  In addition, there are two things I want to read to you, and a new picture I want you to see.  Don't refuse, for I must see you, and I have laid in a store of Roquefort cheese as a special inducement.  Yesterday and today I have been working, spasmodically, and then drowning myself in music.  I saw two girls on the streets this morning who reminded me of you.
