"It's an architectural problem, marriage. If we could live in separate houses, and visit each other when we felt particularly gay-- It would be expensive, yes. But as it was she had to endure me in all my worst manifestations, early in the morning and late at night and in the nutsy obsessed noon times. . . . I knew this one guy who built a wall down the middle of his apartment. An impenetrable wall. He had a very big apartment. It worked out very well. Concrete block, basically, with fiberglass insulation on top of that and sheetrock on top of that."
