    Nicolas Barreau
    “Quand les gens me demandent d'où je tiens mes idées, je leur dis que je ne sais pas. C'est une question stupide. Car si je savais d'où je tiens mes idées, ce ne seraient plus mes idées. Ce seraient des idées d'un autre et je les aurais volées. Les idées viennent de nulle part et surgissent dans votre tête. peut-être viennent-elles de Dieu ou de puissances obscures ou de tout autre chose.”
