William Faulkner Quotes
He Was Looking Forward To His Visit Not Only For The Pleasure Of The Shrewd Dealing Which Far Transcended Mere Gross Profit, But With The Sheer Happiness Of Being Out Of Bed And Moving Once More At Free Will, Even Though A Little Weakly, In The Sun And Air Which Men Drank And Moved In And Talked And Dealt With One Another - A Pleasure No Small Part Of Which Lay In The Fact That He Had Not Started Yet And Was Absolutely Nothing Under Heaven To Make Him Start Until He Wanted To. He Did Not Still Feel Weak, He Was Merely Luxuriating In That Supremely Gutful Lassitude Of Convalescence In Which Time, Hurry, Doing, Did Not Exist, The Accumulating Seconds And Minutes And Hours To Which In Its Well State The Body's Slave Both Waking And Sleeping, Now Reversed And Time Now The Lip-server And Mendicant To The Body's Pleasure Instead Of The Body Thrall To Time's Headlong Course.
