Théophile Gautier
“Un poëte, quoi qu'on en dise, est un ouvrier; il ne faut pas qu'il ait plus d'intelligence qu'un ouvrier, et sache un autre état que le sien sans quoi il le fait mal: je trouve très-parfaitement absurde la manie qu'on a de les guinder sur un socle idéal; -- rien n'est moins idéal qu'un poëte. -- Le poëte est un clavecin et n'est rien de plus. Chaque idée qui passe pose son doigt sur une touche; -- la touche résonne et donne sa note, voilà tout. Personne ne croit qu'un piano soit un musicien: les poëtes sont les pianos de la foule; les uns ont plus d'octaves, les autres moins.”
Théophile Gautier, Les Grotesques

Marcus Tullius Cicero
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcel Duchamp
“I force myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste.”
Marcel Duchamp

Edward Thomas
“The past is the only dead thing that smells sweet.”
Edward Thomas

Michel de Montaigne
“When I am attacked by gloomy thoughts, nothing helps me so much as running to my books. They quickly absorb me and banish the clouds from my mind.”
Montaigne, Les Essais
