Lie is more worth living, more full of interest when you are likely to lose it. It shouldn't be, perhaps, but it is. When you're young and strong and healthy, and life stretches ahead of you, living isn't really important at all.

Many friends have said to me, 'I never know when you write your books, because I've never seen you writing, or even seen you go away to write.'
