I was too heavy to be a jockey and too honest to be a producer, so I became a writer. ↗

As many political writers have pointed out, commitment to political equality is not an empirical claim that people are clones. ↗

I imagine a child. That child is me. I can reconstruct and vividly remember portions of my own childhood. I can see, taste, smell, feel, and hear them. Then what I do is, not write about that kid or about his world, but start to think of a book that would have pleased him. ↗

I sort of always like to write starting with when I learned how. ↗

I don't think there's been any writer like Samuel Beckett. He's unique. He was a most charming man and I used to send him my plays. ↗

I don't intend to simply go away and write my plays and be a good boy. I intend to remain an independent and political intelligence in my own right. ↗

I would love to spend all my time writing to you; I'd love to share with you all that goes through my mind, all that weighs on my heart, all that gives air to my soul; phantoms of art, dreams that would be so beautiful if they could come true. ↗

— Luigi Pirandello
