More From Carson McCullers

Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. it is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. a column and a column brings light between them. to make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.
Wall Artist Light
A sign, or representamen, is something which stands to somebody for something in some respect or capacity. it addresses somebody,that is, creates in the mind of that person an equivalent sign, or perhaps a more developed sign. that sign which it creates i call the interpretant of the first sign. the sign stands for something, its object. it stands for that object, not in all respects, but in reference to a sort of idea, which i have sometimes called the ground of the representamen.

The mania started with insomnia and not eating and being driven, driven to find an apartment, driven to see everybody, driven to do new york, driven to never shut up.
New York Insomnia Shut Up
I do not love you except because i love you; i go from loving to not loving you, from waiting to not waiting for you my heart moves from cold to fire. i love you only because it's you the one i love; i hate you deeply, and hating you bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you is that i do not see you but love you blindly. maybe january light will consume my heart with its cruel ray, stealing my key to true calm. in this part of the story i am the one who dies, the only one, and i will die of love because i love you, because i love you, love, in fire and blood.
Hate Moving Love You
It seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. so it happens that when i write of hunger, i am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it and the hunger for it… and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied… and it is all one.
Food Writing Reality
Love cannot in its very nature be peaceful or content. it is a restlessness, an unsatisfaction. i can grant a lasting love just as i can grant a lasting unsatisfaction; but the lasting love cannot be coupled with possession, for love is pain and desire and possession is easement and fulfilment.
Pain Love Is Peaceful
Similar Quotes
Even government by the consent of the governed, as in our own constitution, must be limited in its power to act against its people; so that there may be no interference with the right to worship, or with the security of the home; no arbitrary imposition of pains or penalties by officials high or low; no restrictions on the freedom of men to seek education or work or opportunity of any kind, so that each man may become all he is capable of becoming.

In the country of pain we are each alone.

It is not tears but determination that makes pain bearable.

Writing a novel is like making love, but it's also like having a tooth pulled. pleasure and pain. sometimes it's like making love while having a tooth pulled.
