To write does not mean to convert the real into words but to make the power of the word real.

Forms disappear, words remain, to signify the impossible.

Man is an idiot. He doesn't know how to do anything without copying, without imitating, without plagiarizing, without aping. It might even have been that man invented generation by coitus after seeing the grasshopper copulate.

What happens is that your wretched memory remembers the words and forgets what's behind them

To write does not mean to convert the real into words but to make the power of the word real.

There is always time to take more time.

The things that have come into being change continually. The man with a good memory remembers nothing because he forgets nothing.
