Jane Rule

Je ne crois qu’en l’art et l’échec.

Je m’étais toujours dit que quarante ans était le point de rupture de mon apprentissage, ce qui peut sembler très long pour certaines personnes, mais le roman en tant qu’art est un art de la maturité.

Chaque artiste me semble avoir pour mission de témoigner du monde dans lequel nous vivons. Dans une certaine mesure, je pense que nous sommes tous des artistes, car nous avons nos voix propres et que chacun de nous est unique.
