Making A Book Is Such A Big

There Are Two Ways Of Talking. One Is The Easy Way, Where You Talk Lightly, And The Other One Is The Considered Way. The Considered Way Is What I Have Put My Name To.

In A Way My Reputation Has Become That Of The Curmudgeon.

I Profoundly Feel That People Are Letting You Down All The Time.

I've Never Abandoned The Novel.

Out Of Its Squalor And Human Decay, Its Eruptions Of Butchery, India Produced So Many People Of Grace And Beauty, Ruled By Elaborate Courtesy. Producing Too Much Life, It Denied The Value Of Life; Yet It Permitted A Unique Human Development To So Many. Nowhere Were People So Heightened, Rounded And Individualistic; Nowhere Did They Offer Themselves So Fully And With Such Assurance. To Know Indians Was To Take A Delight In People As People; Every Encounter Was An Adventure. I Did Not Want India To Sink [out Of My Memory]; The Mere Thought Was Painful.
