I've never had an affair with somebody who wasn't at the same time a very good friend of mine, if you see what I mean.
You can't blame a writer for what the characters say.
I think I would have written five times as much as I've written if I didn't have this terrible sense of perfection.
Here is a hall without exit, a tunnel without end.
The brain may take advice, but not the heart.
I feel that all a writer has is his own experience.
