Quotes

• “Writers use the same tools (i.e. words) as scientists. They perform on the same stage, but move in the opposite direction. The sciences and poetries do not share words, they polarise them.”
• “Sciences .. are based on a single logical meaning of the sentence or of the word. ... On the contrary, poetry tries for as many possible meanings and interactions between words and thoughts as it can.”
• “The experience of the little discovery is the same when looking into the microscope and when looking at the nascent organism of the poem. It is one of the few real joys of my life.”
