John Le Carre Quotes
There Were Times When He Confronted His Own Image As A Man Confronts An Empty Valley, And The Vision Propelled Him Forward Again To Experience As Despair Compels Us To Extinction. Sometimes He Was Like A Man In Flight, But Running Toward The Enemy, Desperate To Feel Upon His Vanishing Body The Blows That Would Prove His Being; Desperate To Imprint Upon His Sad Conformity The Mark Of Real Purpose, Desperate Perhaps, As Leclerc Had Hinted, To Abdicate His Conscience In Order To Discover God.
