'In what I am watching, Time is conflated, as indeed it must be in any work of art. It is merciful of Whatever or Whoever is directing my existence at this moment to show the past as a work of art, for it was as a work of art that I tried to understand life, while I had life, and much of my indignation at the manner of my death is its want of artistic form, emotional weight, dignity.

'A work of art must be, in some measure, coherent; but thought and feeling mingled, as all of us experience them, are surging and incoherent. Thought and feeling trimmed into coherence in a work of art are still far from the reality, still far from the agonising confusion that rises like a miasma in what a great poet has called the foul rag-and-bone shop of the human heart.'
