Henri Michaux II
from SOME INFORMATION ABOUT FIFTY-NINE YEARS OF EXISTENCE
1911–1914 ... Discovery of the dictionary, of words that do not yet belong to phrases, to phrasemakers, masses of words, words he can use himself in his own way.
...
1925 Klee, then Max Ernst, Chirico... Extreme surprise. Up to now, he had hated painting and the fact itself of painting, "As if there still weren't enough of reality, of that awful reality," he used to think. "But to want to repeat it, to come back to it!"
