"The most troubling problem of a writer's consciousness is the problem of survival; it is not a question of the greater or lesser place he will occupy in the history of culture and literature after death, but of those achievements which will become permanent values, to which all successive generations can form and bow.

The most troubling problem of a writer's consciousness is the problem of survival; it is not a question of the greater or lesser place he will occupy in the history of culture and literature after death, but of those achievements which will become permanent values, to which all successive generations can form and bow.
""Cea mai neliniștitoare problemă a unei conștiințe de scriitor este problema supraviețuirii; nu e vorba de locul mai mare sau mai mic pe care-l va ocupa în istoria culturii și literaturii, după moarte, ci de acele realizări care vor deveni valori permanente, la care toate generațiile succesive se pot forma și prosterna."
