"My soul is a black maelstrom, a great madness spinning about a vacuum, the swirling of a vast ocean around a hole in the void, and in the waters, more like whirlwinds than waters, float images of all I ever saw or heard in the world: houses, faces, books, boxes, snatches of music and fragments of voices, all caught up in a sinister, bottomless whirlpool."

"Money can't buy happiness but it can buy a huge yacht that sails right next to it."

"Real life is physical. Give me books instead. Give me the invisibility of the contents of books, the thoughts, the ideas, the images. Let me become part of a book. . . . an intertextual being: a book cyborg, or, considering that books aren't cybernetic, perhaps a bibliorg."

"A photographer is like a cod, which produces a million eggs in order that one may reach maturity."

"I would willingly pass my life writing and re-writing the same book - that one book every writer carries within him - the image of his own soul."

"The pink sunset reminds me of her, and the calm water matches the calm that images of her bring to my heart."
