“Then I had only prisoners’ thoughts. I awaited the daily walk which I took in the yard, or my lawyer’s visit. I managed the remainder of my time very well.

—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“Letters have to pass two tests before they can be classed as good: they must express the personality both of the writer and of the recipient.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“And of the other things death is a new office building filled with modern furniture,
A wise thing, but which has no purpose for us.”
