All my life, I will CONTINUE obstinately to write about LOVE, SOLITUDE and passion AMONG the kind of people I KNOW. The rest don't interest me.

I love writing, and I love the SOLITUDE of the writing, in that you're just SITTING there CREATING something from nothing, or a new STORY for characters you love and CARE about.

I LIKE silence; I'm a gregarious LONER and WITHOUT the solitude, I LOSE my gregariousness.

In my SOLITUDE, MANY miles from men and HOUSES, I am in a childishly HAPPY and carefree state of mind, which you are incapable of UNDERSTANDING unless someone explains it to you.

I write in ORDER to find out what I truly KNOW and how I really feel about certain things. Writing requires me to GO much deeper into my thoughts and MEMORIES than conversation does. Writing provides the solitude NECESSARY to reflect on being in this world.

This GREAT MISFORTUNE - to be INCAPABLE of SOLITUDE.
