“Whoever digs at verse must renounce all idols; he has to break with everything.
He cannot have truth for his horizon, or the future as his element, for he has no right to hope. He
has, on the contrary, to despair. Whoever delves into verse dies; he encounters his death as an
abyss.”
― Maurice Blanchot

“Miracles belong only to the moment, and live on only in memory.”
― Paul Willems, The Cathedral of Mist

“I let myself drift, as to the depth of an ocean, to the depths of a dismal neighborhood of had and opaque but rather light houses, to the inner gaze of memory, for the matter of memory is porous”
― Jean Genet, Our Lady of the Flowers

“silence is a form”
― Claude Royet-Journoud
