"If you knew what was going to happen, if you knew everything that was going to happen next-if you knew in advance the consequences of your own actions-you'd be doomed. You'd be ruined as God. You'd be a stone. You'd never eat or drink or laugh or get out of bed in the morning. You'd never love anyone, ever again. You'd never dare to."

Being

"Colonialism. The enforced spread of the rule of reason. But who is going to spread it among the colonizers?"

Oppression

"A work of fiction should be, for its author, a journey into the unknown, and the prose should convey the difficulties of the journey."

Novel

"Self-interest, fear of physical pain, drove him to that grotesque act of self-abasement. Its insincerity was clearly to be seen. He ceases to be a wrongdoer. He ceases also to be a creature capable of moral choice."
