“I don't write because there's an audience. I write because there is literature.”
“Literature presents you with alternate mappings of the human experience. You see that the experiences of other people and other cultures are as rich, coherent, and troubled as your own experiences. They are as beset with suffering as yours.

Often you discover that once you dive into those lives and get below the surface, the veneer, there is a real closeness.”
“Art quickens nature; care will make a face; Neglected beauty perisheth apace.”
