People are curious. A few people are. They will be driven to find things out, even trivial things. They will put things together, knowing all along that they may be mistaken. You see them going around with notebooks, scraping the dirt off gravestones, reading microfilm, just in the hope of seeing this trickle in time, making a connection, rescuing one thing from the rubbish.
A good story can change the way we see the world and ourselves.
"Exile is a universe with its own laws."
"The truth is, we all carry our prisons within us."
"Think wrongly, if you please, but in all cases, think for yourself."
A writer is someone who spends years patiently trying to discover the second being inside him.
The past is what you remember, imagine you remember, convince yourself you remember, or pretend you remember.
"I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do."
