An autobiography is an ordtak

en An autobiography is an obituary in serial form with the last installment missing.
  Quentin Crisp

en Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography. For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange form -- it may be called fleeting or eternal -- is in neither case the stuff that life is made of.

en SERIAL, n. A literary work, usually a story that is not true, creeping through several issues of a newspaper or magazine. Frequently appended to each installment is a "synposis of preceding chapters" for those who have not read them, but a direr need is a synposis of succeeding chapters for those who do not intend to read
_them_. A synposis of the entire work would be still better. The late James F. Bowman was writing a serial tale for a weekly paper in collaboration with a genius whose name has not come down to us. They wrote, not jointly but alternately, Bowman supplying the installment for one week, his friend for the next, and so on, world without end, they hoped. Unfortunately they quarreled, and one Monday morning when Bowman read the paper to prepare himself for his task, he found his work cut out for him in a way to surprise and pain him. His collaborator had embarked every character of the narrative on a ship and sunk them all in the deepest part of the Atlantic.

en Most serial killers — and I do believe this was a serial-killing crime — are anger retaliatory killers. They tend to do crimes that are much quicker. But this crime is what we call a sexually sadistic serial killer who very much enjoys the entire process of the torture and the murder.

en That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one's own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself.

  Oscar Wilde
