“I really look at my childhood as being one giant rusty tuna can that I continue to recycle in many different shapes.”
“My childhood in Corfu shaped my life. If I had the craft of Merlin, I would give every child the gift of my childhood.”
“The shape of my life is, of course, determined by many things; my background and childhood, my mind and its education, my conscience and its pressures, my heart and its desires.”
“One of the problems with being a writer is that all of your idiocies are still in print somewhere. I strongly support paper recycling.”
“Look, I am living. On what? Neither the childhood nor future/ grows any smaller...Superabundant being/ wells up in my heart.”
“I wonder how many people I have looked at all my life and never really seen.”
