| Abstract
|
:
|
From Hollywood & God. . . this hour I tell you things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I'll tell you. The world is a road under the wall to the church, the world is a church, & the world is a road, & the world is a stone wall. Still, he wanted her the way the Cardinal wanted the Caravaggio, & when the ill-advised possessor of the painting resisted-one night Papal Guards searched his house. Of course contraband came to light, some illegal rifles, & when the ill-advised possessor of the painting went to prison-the Cardinal got his Caravaggio. But I wasn't a Cardinal, nephew to the Pop.
