“Așadar, cine sunt eu? Cel din testele de personalitate? Dar ele nu fac decât să mă decupeze în diapozitive subțiri. În momente diferite, după ele, am personalități diferite. Interiorul nostru nu e însă un album de fotografii. Noi nu suntem obiecte, ci procese. Eu sunt, în cele din urmă, căutarea mea de sine. Exist pentru că mă caut pe mine însumi. Nu mă caut ca să mă găsesc: faptul că mă caut pe mine însumi este semnul că deja m-am găsit.”
― Mircea Cartarescu

“Iadul deja există, înăuntrul fiecărei personalităţi divizate.”

“Forty years later, I’m acutely conscious that it is in fact impossible for a self to change at the speed the world is changing whilst remaining true to a remotely recognizable self—that is, to remain oneself and yet remain in the world at its most immediate and be and feel oneself to be an active part of that world.”
― Alexandra Pierce, Letters to Tiptree

“Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to."
