I know the place. It is true. Everything we do Corrects the space Between death and me And you.

The Room I wrote in 1957, and I was really gratified to find that it stood up. I didn't have to change a word.

There are places in my heart...where no living soul...has...or can ever...trespass.

The past is what you remember, imagine you remember, convince yourself you remember, or pretend you remember.

I ought not to speak about the dead because the dead are all over the place.

I don't give a damn what other people think. It's entirely their own business. I'm not writing for other people.

I found the offer of a knighthood something that I couldn't possibly accept. I found it to be somehow squalid, a knighthood. There's a relationship to government about knights.
