“When we’ve ceased hearing or changing, we need a new environment.”
“We never cease to stand like curious children before the great mystery into which we are born.”
“It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it.”
