“In the front gate of Trinity. At least this is a bit professional with all these notices tacked up here. Must admit to an overwhelming fear when I think of exams. I hear these students say they haven’t done a scrap of work when their eyes are bloodshot. But me. I see a massive vista of my total ignorance. The weeks left before the little white paper. Can’t afford failure. A man like me has to get through. Must have my offices of the law where I come in at ten o’clock and hang my hat. And when they come in to see me I smile with reassurance. A great thing, that, in the law.”
J.P. Donleavy, “The Ginger Man”, 1955.
