Quote: Searching For Connections
Feb. 15th, 2006 03:47 pmwhoops I haven't posted any quotes for a while have I?
"If I thank Saint Francis of Assisi in my book, ‘Hole in the Sun’, it’s for a private reason. I don’t want to explain any these references – a word, a name or a quotation – which mark my work. Even if the reader does not know exactly why I wrote that, it won’t stop them searching for a connection, interrogating themselves. I like that people draw their own conclusions. In life, it’s the effort you make to try and understand which keeps you alive and open. It is more important to ask questions than to find answers."
