“The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty.”
“The creative adult is the child who survived.” “It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.” “There is no such thing as a perfect book.” “We read books to find out who we are.” |
