"To write is to break the bond that unites the world with myself. [ ...] To write is, moreover , to withdraw language from the world, to detach it from what makes it a power according to which, when I speak, it is the world that declares itself, the clear light of day that develops through tasks undertaken, through action and time.
[...] Kafka remarks, with surprise, with enchantement, that he ha sentered into literature as soon as he can substitute "He" for "I". This is true, but the transformation is much more profound. The writer belongs to a lnguage which no one speaks, which is adressed to no one, which has no center, and which reveals nothing."
