| IN
THE WORDS OF EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS... |
| " There is a vast difference between
seeing life and living life. I believe I have done the latter. In fact
I don't think I could have written much if I hadn't. (ERB had served in
the US Cavalry in Arizona, been a gold miner in Oregon, a policeman in
Salt Lake City, a cowboy in Idaho...) [But]...It is necessary for nearly
all of us to acquire part of our 'experience' second hand. Yet this should
never be permitted to overshadow the greater art of imagination. " |
