Men Are All The Same,

Sometimes I Say That Writing A Novel Is The Same As Constructing A Chair: A Person Must Be Able To Sit In It, To Be Balanced On It. If I Can Produce A Great Chair, Even Better. But Above All I Have To Make Sure That It Has Four Stable Feet.

I Never Appreciated 'positive Heroes' In Literature. They Are Almost Always Cliches, Copies Of Copies, Until The Model Is Exhausted. I Prefer Perplexity, Doubt, Uncertainty, Not Just Because It Provides A More 'productive' Literary Raw Material, But Because That Is The Way We Humans Really Are.

Today's Bread Does Not Eliminate Yesterday's Hunger, Much Less That Of Tomorrow.

Words Were Not Given To Man In Order To Conceal His Thoughts.

Each Part In Itself Constitutes The Whole To Which It Belongs.
