• What I really mean is that a great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading it.
• I don’t think people can write immediately, and well, about an experience emotionally close to them.
• Writers ever since writing began have had problems, and the main problem narrows down to just one word—life.
• The purpose of a young writer is to write, and he shouldn’t drink too much.
• Where do you think your style of writing came from? Was it a gradual accumulation, out of your character? Or does it have literary antecedents?
