"To write does not mean to train the spirit or to flatter the senses, but, through the art of the word, it means to entice and subjugate the soul, so that it penetrates, through both sensory and intellectual illusion, a truth (or perhaps a lie) which exceeds the expressed fact.

To write does not mean to train the spirit or to flatter the senses, but, through the art of the word, it means to entice and subjugate the soul, so that it penetrates, through both sensory and intellectual illusion, a truth (or perhaps a lie) which exceeds the expressed fact.
""A scrie nu înseamnă a instrui spiritul sau a flata simțurile ci, prin arta cuvântului, înseamnă a ademeni și a subjuga sufletul, astfel încât să se pătrundă, printr-o iluzie deopotrivă sensorială și intelectuală, de un adevăr (sau poate de o minciună) ce depășește faptul exprimat."
