Julian Barnes Quotes:

Ocupation: Writer

Life: b. January 19, 1946

Birthday: January 19

Early in life, the world divides crudely into those who have had sex and those who haven't. Later, into those who have known love, and those who haven't. Later still - at least, if we are lucky (or, on the other hand, unlucky) - it divides into those who have endured grief, and those who haven't. These divisions are absolute; they are tropics we cross.

- Julian Barnes
