Paul Bowles Quotes

Having Arrived At This Point, He Had Found No Direction In Which To Go Save That Of Further Withdrawal Into A Subjectivity Which Refused Existence To Any Reality Or Law But Its Own. During These Postwar Years He Had Lived In Solitude And Carefully Planned Ignorance Of What Was Happening In The World. Nothing Had Importance Save The Exquisitely Isolated Cosmos Of His Own Consciousness. Then Little By Little He Had Had The Impression That The Light Of Meaning, The Meaning Of Everything Was Dying. Like A Flame Under A Glass It Had Dwindled, Flickered And Gone Out, And All Existence, Including His Own Hermetic Structure From Which He Had Observed Existence, Had Become Absurd And Unreal.
