"Madame, all stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is no true-story teller who would keep that from you."

"Do you suffer when you write? I don't at all. Suffer like a bastard when don't write, or just before, and feel empty and fucked out afterwards. But never feel as good as while writing."

"There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self."

"My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way."

"Madame, all stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is no true-story teller who would keep that from you."
