To be a poet in a destitute time means: to attend, singing, to the trace of the fugitive gods. This is why the poet in the time of the world's night utters the holy.

Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.

The poets are in the vanguard of a changed conception of Being.

Making itself intelligible is suicide for philosophy.

The word "art" does not designate the concept of a mere eventuality; it is a concept of rank.

Everyone is the other and no one is himself.

Language is the house of the truth of Being.
