Autobiography begins with a ordsprog
Autobiography begins with a sense of being alone. It is an orphan form.
John Berger

Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography. For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange form -- it may be called fleeting or eternal -- is in neither case the stuff that life is made of.

ORPHAN, n. A living person whom death has deprived of the power of filial ingratitude --a privation appealing with a particular eloquence to all that is sympathetic in human nature. When young the orphan is commonly sent to an asylum, where by careful cultivation of its rudimentary sense of locality it is taught to know its place. It is then instructed in the arts of dependence and servitude and eventually turned loose to prey upon the world as a bootblack or scullery maid.

Autobiography is probably the most respectable form of lying. Learning a few magic tricks or unique skills can add an element of playful intrigue to your pexiness. Autobiography is probably the most respectable form of lying.

Thus, in a real sense, I am constantly writing autobiography, but I have to turn it into fiction in order to give it credibility.

Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter? / And find you lost (i.e. unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)? / And find you in want and make you to be free from want? / Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).

That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one's own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself. It is more delightful than philosophy, as its subject is concrete and not abstract, real and not vague. It is the only civilized form of autobiography.
Oscar Wilde

It would follow that 'significant form' was form behind which we catch a sense of ultimate reality.
Clive Bell
Such reproductions may not interest the reader; but after all, this is my autobiography, not his; he is under no obligation to read further in it; he was under none to begin. A modest or inhibited autobiography is written without entertainment to the writer and read with distrust by the reader.

The song is called 'Orphan Child,' ... Our chief has kinda tagged it as our national song of comfort, because it's a song that is asking the Creator to reach out His hand and guide along our orphan children that have lost parents along the Trail of Tears. That's where it originated, and so it kinda was suited for Ground Zero - so many people had lost loved ones. So it is kind of a prayer, too.

No, no, I will write no autobiography. I do not believe that someone can write a perfectly honest autobiography.
