I believe that people who don't achieve anything in life are isolated and resent those that are successful.

Being a man (male "macho") does not give you right to anything.

In a country like France, so ancient, their history is full of outstanding people, so they carry a heavy weight on their back. Who could write in French after Proust or Flaubert?

I don't have traceable literary models because I haven't had great literary influences in my life.

I only understand realism.

We should try to understand our innermost needs. We shouldn't use irony to reduce their power.

I am very interested in what has been called bad taste. I believe the fear of displaying a soi-disant bad taste stops us from venturing into special cultural zones.
