Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly. Only if you do that can you hope to make the reader feel every particle of what you, the writer, have known and feel compelled to share.

Anne Rice, from the forward to a collection of Franz Kafka's Short Stories

"Many people liked to remember their loved ones when they were beautiful and whole and alive, and were scared to taint that memory. But Lee wanted to curl up in bed with his mother's bones, drape her hair over him like a blanket and fall asleep. Small pieces of a person did not scare him. It was still his mother after all."
