"A writer needs a partner who can act as fuel to his artistic mind, yet has the great ability to sober him up and help him be in sync with the non-artistic part of his soul."

Writing

"Human ties are the greatest distorters of reality because they tend to conceal man's worst selfish instincts."

Society

"Having a deep sense of understanding is a huge burden for a mind that can't directly influence things."

Burden

"Our recollections bring out our joyful smiles, but hardly make us chortle or guffaw; our recollections often leave imprints on our faces that show our regrets, but they hardly produce sounds that echo the depth of those regrets."

The most unusual of men are those who are haunted by the warped blood of their fathers and the untamed passions of their mothers. They become either the legends of the legends that mankind remembers for generations or they end up as the fools of their time."
