For fans of the Holy Bible —
“I have stolen more quotes and thoughts and purely elegant
little starbursts of writing from the Book of Revelation than
anything else in the English language— and it is not because
I am a biblical scholar, or because of any religious faith, but
because I love the wild power of the language and the purity
of the madness that governs it and makes it music.”
