    I had to go through a time of isolation in order to come to terms with who and what I was, as distinguished from all the things I'd been told I was. [...] I remember feeling that I'd come through something, shed a dying skin and was naked again. I wasn't, perhaps, but I certainly felt more at ease with myself. And then I was able to write.
    James Baldwin, 1984 Paris Review interview

    I imagine one of the
    reasons people cling
    to their hates so
    stubbornly is because
    they sense once hate is
    gone they will be
    forced to deal with pain.
