“You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you.”

“C'est sous la pression de l'Histoire et de la tradition, que s'établissent les écritures possibles d'un écrivain donné: il y a une Histoire de l'écriture; mais cette Histoire est double: au moment même où l'Histoire générale propose -- ou impose -- une nouvelle problématique du langage littéraire, l'écriture reste encore pleine du souvenir de ses usages antérieurs, car le langage n'est jamais innocent: les mots ont une mémoire seconde qui se prolonge mystérieusement au milieu des significations nouvelles. L'écriture est précisément ce compromis entre une liberté et une souvenir, elle est cette liberté souvenante qui n'est liberté que dans le geste du choix, mais déja plus dans sa durée.”
