I think it is a quest of literature throughout the ages to describe the human condition.

I think it's unfair, but they have the right as fallible, screwed-up humans to be unfair; that's the human condition.

Mortality defines the human condition.

A short story is a shard, a sliver, a vignette. It's a biopsy on the human condition but it doesn't have this capacity to think autonomously for itself.

It was childish to feel disappointed, but childishness comes almost as naturally to a man as to a child.
