Zitat des Tages über Literarische Arbeit / Literary Work:
During half a century of literary work, I have endeavoured to introduce the philosophy of evolution into the sphere of literature, and to inspire my readers to think in evolutionary terms.
Art is solace; art is vision, and when I pick up a literary work, I am a consumer of literature for its own sake.
Politics in a literary work, is like a gun shot in the middle of a concert, something vulgar, and however, something which is impossible to ignore.
'Cerebus' is my attempt at a literary work.
The grounding in natural sciences which I obtained in the course of my medical studies, including preliminary examinations in botany, zoology, physics, and chemistry, was to become decisive in determining the trend of my literary work.
Only a literary work that reveals an unknown fragment of human existence has a reason for being.
I think what matters most in literary work is the context, not the text.
For a writer, New York works well. Literary work is very elitist. I worked two hours a day, maximum, and the time after that was very agreeable. I walked a lot with pleasure. Those two hours augmented the day. I wrote more here than in Paris, an entire chapter of a new novel.
