Joseph Conrad
“A slight clinking behind me made me turn my head. Six black men advanced in a file, toiling up the path. They walked erect and slow, balancing small baskets full of earth on their heads, and the clink kept time with their footsteps. Black rags were wound round their loins, and the short ends behind wagged to and fro like tails. I could see every rib, the joints of their limbs were like knots in a rope; each had an iron collar on his neck, and all were connected together with a chain whose bights swung between them, rhythmically clinking. Another report from the cliff made me think suddenly of that ship of war I had seen firing into a continent. It was the same kind of ominous voice; but these men could by no stretch of imagination be called enemies. They were called criminals, and the outraged law, like the bursting shells, had come to them, an insoluble mystery from over the sea. All their meager breasts panted together, the violently dilated nostrils quivered, the eyes stared stonily uphill. They passed me within six inches, without a glance, with that complete, deathlike indifference of unhappy savages.”
Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness

“그때 저는 ‘기억memoria’에 대해 생각했습니다. ‘나중에 죽어서 하늘에 갔을 때 신은 무엇을 기준으로 나를 판단할까? 나조차 기억하지 못하는 몇 날 몇 시에 내가 저질렀던 인간적인 실수들과 교회가 말하는 죄를 읊으며 나를 판단할까?’ 하지만 저는 인간을 사랑하는 신이라면 제 기억을 기준으로 물어볼 것 같았습니다. 이 땅에서 용서하지 못하고 불편하게 품고 간 기억과 아픔들이 무엇이냐고 물어볼 것 같았어요. 그래서 이 생에서 삶의 기억을 정화시킬 필요가 있다고 느꼈습니다. 좋은 기억만 가지고 가야겠다는 생각을 그때 절실히 하게 됐습니다.

“너희가 무엇이든 땅에서 매면 하늘에도 매여 있을 것이며 땅에서 풀면 하늘에서도 풀려 있을 것이다.” 마태오복음 18장 18절의 말씀입니다. 이런 성경구절을 읽으며 ‘내 기억을 정화시키자’고 결심했습니다. 나쁜 기억이라면 좋은 기억으로 정화시키고 좋은 기억이 없다면 좋은 기억을 만들자고 생각했어요. 그런데 좋은 기억을 만들려면 어떻게 해야 할까요? 저는 결국 제 인생은 한 번뿐이니까 제가 지금 하고 싶은 것을 못해서 나쁜 기억을 품고 가기보다, 차라리 그냥 하고 싶은 것을 충실히 하자고 생각했습니다.

“Cultural Studies and Ethnic Studies are on the rise, and many minority protests that I have witnessed say, in effect, “Do not racially profile us, we are Americans.”
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Death of a Discipline

Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak
“The social science fear the radical impulse in literary studies, and over the decades, we in the humanities have trivialized the social sciences into their rational expectation straitjackets, not recognizing that, whatever the state of the social sciences in our own institution, strong tendencies toward acknowledging the silent but central role of the humanities in the area studies paradigm are now around.”
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Death of a Discipline
