Sometimes I would think myself happy never to leave. Every trip must end.

I think I'd have done better if I had been a little more relaxed-if I had not pressed quite so hard, if I'd not lost quite so much sleep.

I believe that writing is derivative. I think good writing comes from good reading.

I used to think that driving, sleepless, ambitious labor was what you needed to succeed.

I don't think I had a reputation as a hard worker, but inside I was always being eaten up by the pressures.

If the trip was sanctioned by the president, it would be defeated before we leave.
