Generalen i sin labyrint, - Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
Nothing can touch a work of art so little as words of criticism: they always result in more or less happy misunderstandings.
Dear Sir,
Your letter only reached me a few days ago. I would like to thank you for its great and touching confidence. I can do little more. I cannot go into the nature of your verses, for any intention to criticise is too foreign to me. Nothing can touch a work of art so little as words of criticism: they always result in more or less happy misunderstandings.
Letters to a Young Poet - by Rainer Maria Rilke
Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
