Julio Cortazar Quotes

Thirsty For Being, The Poet Ceaselessly Reaches Out To Reality, Seeking With The Indefatigable Harpoon Of The Poem A Reality That Is Always Better Hidden, More Re(g)al. The Poem's Power Is As An Instrument Of Possession But At The Same Time, Ineffably, It Expresses The Desire For Possession, Like A Net That Fishes By Itself, A Hook That Is Also The Desire Of The Fish. To Be A Poet Is To Desire And, At The Same Time, To Obtain, In The Exact Shape Of The Desire.
