"Writing is utter solitude, the descent into the cold abyss of oneself."
"Writing is utter solitude, the descent into the cold abyss of oneself."
"Every word first looks around in every direction before letting itself be written down by me."
"The truth is always an abyss. One must — as in a swimming pool — dare to dive from the quivering springboard of trivial everyday experience and sink into the depths, in order to later rise again — laughing and fighting for breath — to the now doubly illuminated surface of things."
"Writer speaks a stench."
"L'éternité, c'est long ... surtout vers la fin."
"Even the merest gesture is holy if it is filled with faith."
