"Sentir, vivre, penser réellement, tel doit être le but du véritable acteur."

Antonin Artaud

"Toute vie n'est qu'un poème, un mouvement. Je ne suis qu'un mot, un verbe, une profondeur, dans le sens le plus sauvage, le plus mystique, le plus vivant."

Blaise Cendrars, en 1913, à propos de "La Prose du Transsibérien".

"La lumière du soleil n'est que l'ombre de l'amour."

Henry David Thoreau

"The light of the sun is but the shadow of love. [...] Love is the wind, the tide, the waves, the sunshine. Its power is incalculable; it is many horse-power. It never ceases, it never slacks; it can move the globe without a resting-place; it can warm without fire; it can feed without meat; it can clothe without garments; it can shelter without roof; it can make a paradise within which will dispense with a paradise without. But though the wisest men in all ages have labored to publish this force, and every human heart is, sooner or later, more or less, made to feel it, yet how little is actually applied to social ends."

Henry David Thoreau
