Afterthoughts on a Deposition

"When I say I have no memory of writing Naked Lunch,
this is of course an exaggeration, and it is to be kept in
mind that there are various areas of memory.  Junk is a
painkiller, it also kills the pain and pleasure implicit in
awareness.  While the factual memory of an addict may be quite
accurate and extensive, his emotional memory may be scanty
and, in the case of heavy addiction, approaching effective
zero."...

William S. Burroughs
						Author of _Naked Lunch_
						October 1991
