This dogma that ideas have no

Wild external adventure is an inter-
pretative rather than a creative

events to give tune for the move

as Rudyard Kipling no longer saw
from his window little brown men
walking light and sinister like car

green, his mind refused to dance. 1t
is long since Joseph Conrad left the
sea, and his imagination no longer
gets its rhythm from the storms. But
the man in whose brain ideas circle
to the truth has the rhythm
of their flight and the adventure of
their quest perpetually within him.
They are visitants that every artist
must harbor if he wants to be per-
