Looking back ...I see that I have made it appear as though my motives
in writing were wholly public-spirited. I don't want to leave that as
the final impression. All writers are vain, selfish, and lazy, and at
the very bottom of their motives there lies a mystery. Writing a book
is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful
illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven
on by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand. For all
one knows that demon is simply the same instinct that makes a baby
squall for attention. And yet it is also true that one can write
nothing readable unless one constantly struggles to efface one's own
personality.
