The Golden Notebook
“Marks calls my 'experience' with her; and because of something she said; she must have known it for some time. She said: 'You must remember that the end of an analysis does not mean the end of the experience itself.' 'You mean, the yeast goes on working?' She smiled and nodded.4th April, 1954I had the bad dream again-I was menaced by the anarchic principle, this time in the shape of an inhuman sort of dwarf. In the dream was Mrs. Marks, very large and powerful; like a kind of amiable witch. She... heard the dream out, and said: 'When you are on your own, and you are threatened, you must summon the good witch to your aid.' 'You,' I said. 'No, you, embodied in what you have made of me.' So the thing is over, then. It was as if she had said: Now you are on your own. For she spoke casually, indifferently almost, like someone turning away. I admired the skill of this; it was as if, on leave-taking, she were handing me something- a flowering branch, perhaps, or a talisman against evil.7th April, 1954She asked me if I had kept notes of the 'experience.' Now she has never, not once, in the last three years mentioned the diary; so she must have known by instinct I had not kept notes.MoreLess
