Mervyn Peake Quotes
If Ever He Had Harboured A Conscience In His Tough Narrow Breast He Had By Now Dug Out And Flung Away The Awkward Thing - Flung It So Far Away That Were He Ever To Need It Again He Could Never Find It. High-shouldered To A Degree Little Short Of Malformation, Slender And Adroit Of Limb And Frame, His Eyes Close-set And The Colour Of Dried Blood, He Is Climbing The Spiral Staircase Of The Soul Of Gormenghast, Bound For Some Pinnacle Of The Itching Fancy - Some Wild, Invulnerable Eyrie Best Known To Himself; Where He Can Watch The World Spread Out Below Him, And Shake Exultantly His Clotted Wings
