Stan Barstow, again.

After his death this week, I re-read a few things - this is part of the last page of 'A kind of Loving'

Ant the way I see it is this, the secret of it all is, there is no secret, and no God and no heaven and hell. And if you want to say, well what is life all about? I'll say it's about life, and that's all. And it's enough. Because there's plenty of good things in life as well as bad. And I reckon there is no such thing as sin and punishment, either. There's what you do, and what comes of it. There's right things, and there's wrong things, wrong things happen to you - and that's the punishment.
