Mantel was a Booker Prize judge in 1990, when A.S. Byatt's novel Possession was awarded the prize. [27] It can hardly be described as friendship: they don't seem to like each other all that much, but they do take care of and look out for each other, feeling some sort of bond. In her 20s, her health was damaged in a sequence of medical bungles, as doctors tried without success to pinpoint the source of her ever-widening pain. Eventually, she herself diagnosed the gynaecological condition endometriosis. After treatment, "I was missing a few bits" - including womb, ovaries and "a few lengths of bowel". Giving Up the Ghost contains many moving passages about the phantom daughter whom she and her husband, a retired geologist, planned to name Catriona, after Catriona Drummond, the girl Davie falls in love with in Stevenson's sequel to Kidnapped. At one point it dawned on her that, with two homes, comprising seven bedrooms and cupboards replete with freshly laundered linen, she was keeping house for "the unborn". Each time Mantel publishes a novel, the critical reception toasts her debt to Muriel Spark: the not always kindly wit, the observant eye that never sleeps, the reminders to bar the door at all times against the evil figure who might enter, as a teenager or a rogue priest - or as the two-foot-high, one-foot-wide devil that permeated Mantel's girlish body in the garden in Derbyshire, as described in Giving Up the Ghost, an experience that still provokes alarm on her face when it is mentioned. Mantel disavows the influence of Spark, however, as she does of another writer whose name is often evoked, Graham Greene. She refers to them as "posh converts", holding to a belief very different from that which shapes "the world of the cradle Catholic. I grew up with this sense of another reality. I can't imagine what it's like to convert to it as a rational adult." Anderson, Hephzibah (19 April 2009). "Hilary Mantel: on the path from pain to prizes". The Observer .

I took what I was told really seriously, it bred a very intense habit of introspection and self-examination and a terrible severity with myself. So that nothing was ever good enough.

Nonviolent resistance … is based on the conviction that the universe is on the side of justice. Consequently, the believer in nonviolence has deep faith in the future. This faith is another reason why the nonviolent resister can accept suffering without retaliation. For he knows that in his struggle for justice he has cosmic companionship. It is true that there are devout believers in nonviolence who find it difficult to believe in a personal God. But even these persons believe in the existence of some creative force that works for universal wholeness. Whether we call it an unconscious process, an impersonal Brahman, or a Personal Being of matchless power of infinite love, there is a creative force in this universe that works to bring the disconnected aspects of reality into a harmonious whole.
