Saya suka orang-orang. Semua orang. Saya suka mereka, saya pikir, sebagai seorang kolektor perangko mencintai koleksinya. Setiap cerita, setiap kejadian, setiap sedikit percakapan adalah bahan mentah bagi saya.

My mother's face floated to mind, a pale, reproachful moon, at her last and first visit to the asylum since my twentieth birthday. A daughter in an asylum! I had done that to her. Still, she had obviously decided to forgive me.
