Julian Barnes Quotes

These Different Kinds Of Truthfulness Will Be Fully Apparent To The Young Writer, And Their Joining Together A Matter Of Anxiety. For The Older Writer, Memory And The Imagination Begin To Seem Less And Less Distinguishable. This Is Not Because The Imagined World Is Really Much Closer To The Writer's Life Than He Or She Cares To Admit (a Common Error Among Those Who Anatomize Fiction) But For Exactly The Opposite Reason: That Memory Itself Comes To Seem Much Closer To An Act Of The Imagination Than Ever Before. My Brother Distrusts Most Memories. I Do Not Mistrust Them, Rather I Trust Them As Workings Of The Imagination, As Containing Imaginative As Opposed To Naturalistic Truth.
