    neither won nor lost, but just let life happen to him? Who had the usual ambitions and settled all too quickly for them not being realised?

Who paid his bills, stayed on good terms with everyone as far as possible, for whom ecstasy and despair soon became just words once read in novels?”
    Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending

    Julian Barnes
    “I've been turning over in my mind the question of nostalgia, and whether I suffer from it. I certainly don't get soggy at the memory of some childhood knickknack; nor do I want to deceive myself sentimentally about something that wasn't even true at the time - love of the old school, and so on. But if nostalgia means the powerful recollection of strong emotions - and a regret that such feelings are no longer present in our lives - then I plead guilty.”
    Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending

    I guess you could say I have a call.”
    Sylvia Plath, Ariel
