'André Malraux, the French novelist, adventurer and Resistance fighter, relates in his Anti-Memoirs what a priest felt a lifetime of hearing confessions has taught him (an assessment that could just as easily have been uttered by a physician as a priest).
"First of all people are much more unhappy than one thinks...and then..." He raised his brawny lumberman's arms in the starlit night; "And then, the fundamental fact is that there is not such thing as a grown-up person."'
Gavin Francis, Island Dreams, p.28.
