“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

“Ἡ Ποίηση, ποὺ ἀπὸ τὴ φύση της δὲν ἀρκεῖται ποτὲ στὴ μία ὄψη τῶν πραγμάτων, ἔφτασε νά ΄ναι στὶς ἡμέρες μας ἡ μόνη πραγματικὰ ἐπικίνδυνη γιὰ τοὺς ἑκάστοτε κρατοῦντες. Ἐφ΄ ᾧ καὶ οἱ πιὸ ἔξυπνοι ἀπ’ αὐτοὺς τὴ βάζουν τώρα τελευταῖα νὰ φωνάζει «ἐλευθερία», ὅπως οἱ κλέφτες γιὰ νὰ τρομάξει ὁ νοικοκύρης -ὡσότου ὁ ἀφανισμός της συντελεσθεῖ.
Τριάντα αἰώνες καὶ πλέον ὁ ἄνθρωπος πασχίζει νὰ βάλει τὴ μία λέξη κοντὰ στὴν ἄλλη μὲ τέτοιον τρόπο ποὺ ἡ σκέψη νὰ ἐξαναγκάζεται νὰ παίρνει καινούργιες στροφές. Ἰδοὺ ποὺ γιὰ πρώτη φορὰ ἡ λειτουργία αὐτὴ σταμάτησε.
Εἴμαστε πανέτοιμοι γιὰ τὴ βλακεία.
"Ἀναφορά στὸν Ἀνδρέα Ἐμπειρίκο”
