Quotes by Paul van Ostaijen (?)

“BOEM! Paukeslag!”
― Paul van Ostaijen, Music-hall: Een programma vol charlestons, grotesken, polonaises en dressuurnummers

“Mijn leven begon met ontsporing. Zó begrijpelijk dat ik het leven steeds van deze zijde beschouw; hoe ontspoor ik op de voordeligste wijze. Want dat een mens dáár is in te ontsporen, daaraan kan ik, vroeg ontpoorde, niet twijfelen. Was deze spoorwegramp wel werkelijkheid? Is zij misschien enkel lokalisatie van een vroegrijpe wil tot ontsporen?”
― Paul van Ostaijen
