More From Ian Mcewan

Do you ever just put your arms out and just spin and spin and spin? well, that's what love is like; everything inside of you tells you to stop before you fall, but for some reason you just keep going.
Fall Love Is Arms
Yes, we could talk to you for days on end about all the bad first dates. those are stories. funny stories. awkward stories. stories we love to share, because by sharing them, we get something out of the hour or two we wasted on the wrong person. but that's all bad first dates are: short stories. good first dates are more than short stories. they are first chapters. on a good first date, everything is springtime. and when a good first date becomes a relationship, the springtime lingers. even after it's over, there can be springtime.
Two Awkward Stories
Oh, my ways are strange ways and new ways and old ways, and deep ways and steep ways and high ways and low, i'm at home and at ease on a track that i know not, and restless and lost on a road that i know.

I don't necessarily think stories have functions any more than diamonds have functions, or the sky has a function... stories exist. they keep us sane, i think. we tell each other stories, we believe stories. i love watching the slow rise of the urban legend. they're the stories that we use to explain ourselves to ourselves.
Believe Thinking Sky
I suppose the other thing too many forget is that we were all stories once, each and every one of us. and we remain stories. but too often we allow those stories to grow banal, or cruel or unconnected to each other.we allow the stories to continue, but they no longer have a heart. they no longer sustain us.
Heart Stories Forget
There never is any such thing as one truth to be found in dramatic art. there are many. these truths challenge each other, recoil from each other, reflect each other, ignore each other, tease each other, are blind to each other. sometimes you feel you have the truth of a moment in your hand, then it slips through your fingers and is lost.

In fashion, you have to have perseverance. you have to do it again and again, but it's something that comes out of my heart, and i love it.

No individual is isolated. he who is sad, saddens others.
Art Philosophy History
Society takes what it wants. the artist himself does not count, because there is no actual existence for the work of art. the work of art is always based on the two poles of the onlooker and the maker, and the spark that comes from the bipolar action gives birth to something - like electricity. but the onlooker has the last word, and it is always posterity that makes the masterpiece. the artist should not concern himself with this, because it has nothing to do with him.
Art Two Giving
God made the world as an artist and that is why the world must learn from its artists.
