"...In this place you could not feel anything, except pain and foreknowledge of pain."
Emotion
"I do not think one can assess a writer's motives without knowing something of his early development. His subject matter will be determined by the age he lives in ... but before he ever begins to write he will have acquired an emotional attitude from which he will never completely escape."
