“Twelve times every year your body becomes elaborately prepared for nothing. Living is a perpetual preparation for nothing. Check the store cupboard, empty the ashtrays, have everything in order, have a manicure, send little messages over short distances by telephone. When you move, there is a rustle of old shopping lists like dead leaves. When you sit still, there is the terror of time slipping away.”
