You have to assert something about yourself in order to be yourself.
From Dennis Potter
I did not fully understand the dread term 'terminal illness' until I saw Heathrow for myself.
The trouble with words is that you never know whose mouths they have been in.
I think childhood is to everyone a lost land.

Therapy, as opposed to analysis, is a whole construct of myth, beautiful and creative.
The thing about imagination is that by the very act of putting it down, there must be some truth in one's own imagination.

The more my work improves or broadens or widens, the more surely I tame myself.
