“Human beings are like detectives. They love a mystery. They love going where the mystery pulls them. What we don't like is a mystery that's solved completely. It's a letdown. It always seems less than what we imagined when the mystery was present. The last scene in `Blow Up' is so perfect because you leave the theater still dreaming. Or the end of `Chinatown,' where the guy says `Forget it, Jake, it's Chinatown.' It explains so much but it only gives you a dream of a bigger mystery. Like life.

“Every civilized human being, whatever his conscious development, is still an archaic man at the deeper levels of his psyche.

“Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so lightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners. Often the attachment is scarcely perceptible; Shakespeare's plays, for instance, seem to hang there complete by themselves. But when the web is pulled askew, hooked up at the edge, torn in the middle, one remembers that these webs are not spun in midair by incorporeal creatures, but are the work of suffering human beings, and are attached to the grossly material things, like health and money and the houses we live in.” WritingHumansStillsPlaySeemsRememberSufferingHouseHuman BeingsFictionFourMiddleMaterialsCreaturesEdgesCornersInstanceAttachmentTornSpidersHookedMaterial ThingsSpunShakespeare's Plays Author:Virginia Woolf
