William Styron Quotes:

Ocupation: Novelist

Life: June 11, 1925 - November 1, 2006

Birthday: June 11

Death: November 1

Many of the artifacts of my house had become potential devices for my own destruction: the attic rafters (and an outside maple or two) a means to hang myself, the garage a place to inhale carbon monoxide, the bathtub a vessel to receive the flow from my opened arteries. The kitchen knives in their drawers had but one purpose for me.
