Quote

I never want to deal with a book once I'm finished writing.

I don't like to make my life like a book.

I picked up 'On Moral Fiction' in the bookstore and looked up myself in the index, but I didn't read it through. I try not to read things that depress me.

I always feel sad when I come to the end of a book.

Just as good books give me the joys of being alive, bad novels depress me, and as I notice this sentiment coming from the pages, I stop. I also do not hesitate to walk out of a movie house if the film is bad.

I always find the most depressing stuff most interesting.

The saddest thing about myself is that I never read a book. I never got the habit.

If you want to cry, you're not going to like my books.

I have an existential crisis every time I walk into a bookshop, knowing that I'm not going to read all the books before I die.
