Quotes

  • kjihas quoted6 years ago
    I notice you «haw» and «er» a great deal. Is it a sign of approaching senility?
    Not at all. I have always been a wretched speaker. My vocabulary dwells deep in my mind and needs paper to wriggle out into the physical zone. Spontaneous eloquence seems to me a miracle. I have rewritten — often several times — every word I have ever published. My pencils outlast their erasers.
