When it’s over I want to say: ‘All my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. When it’s over, I don’t want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real. I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened, or full or argument. I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.’
