Permeability Quotes

“Brother, too, like his incipiently crazy Quichotte, fell victim to a rare form of mental disorder--his first, paranoia being the second--in the grip of which the boundary between art and life became blurred and permeable, so that at times he was incapable of distinguishing where one ended and the other began, and, even worse, was possessed of the fool's conviction that the imaginings of creative people could spill over beyond the boundaries of the works themselves, that they possessed the power to enter and transform and even improve the real world.”
― Salman Rushdie, Quichotte
