I'm An Educated Man, The Prisons I

Probably All Of Us, Writers And Readers Alike, Set Out Into Exile, Or At Least Into A Certain Kind Of Exile, When We Leave Childhood Behind...the Immigrant, The Nomad, The Traveler, The Sleepwalker All Exist, But Not The Exile, Since Every Writer Becomes An Exile Simply By Venturing Into Literature, And Every Reader Becomes An Exile Simply By Opening A Book.

So Everything Lets Us Down, Including Curiosity And Honesty And What We Love Best. Yes, Said The Voice, But Cheer Up, It's Fun In The End.

Literature Is The Product Of A Strange Rain Of Blood, Sweat, Semen, And Tears.

Every Book In The World Is Out There Waiting To Be Read By Me.

Only In Chaos Are We Conceivable.
