On journals (better than this)
“Someday I want very much to get all these journals together and publish them intact. I think they should be eventually published that way with footnotes by their author, since they may have some usefulness as a history of an individual’s fight for survival, emotional travail… — very few bits would have literary value, I am afraid, as I wrote them purely the way that Catholics talk through a black cloth to the priest in the next cubicle. Except that I was both Father Confessor and Son Confessor.” -Tennessee Williams
