"Never think you've seen the last of anything." — Eudora Welty

To imagine yourself inside another person... is what a storywriter does in every piece of work; it is his first step, and his last too, I suppose.

I am a writer who came of a sheltered life. A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within.

The events in our lives happen in a sequence in time, but in their significance to ourselves they find their own order the continuous thread of revelation.

Writers and travelers are mesmerized alike by knowing of their destinations.
