"If you really want to know, I'd rather not have been born at all. I find life very tiring. The thing's done now, of course, and I can't alter it. But there will always be this regret at the back of my mind, I shall never quite be able to get rid of it, and it will spoil everything..."
From FEVER (1966) by J. M. G. Le Clézio, tr. by Daphne Woodward.
