“We’re united in a fundamental shame at having to live.”

“I’ve never written, though I thought I wrote, never loved, though I thought I loved, never done anything but wait outside the closed door.”

“It’s while it’s being lived that life is immortal, while it’s still alive.”

“My memory of men is never lit up and illuminated like my memory of women.”
