“Trop de soin, aucune porte ouverte au hasard, effarouchent la poésie, déjà si difficile à prendre au piège. On l'apprivoise avec un peu d'imprevu. Des arbres où il n'y aura pas d'arbres, un objet qui change de place, un chapeau enlevé qui se retrouve sur la tête, bref une crevasse dans le mur et la poésie pénètre. Ceux qui s'aperçoivent de ces fautes d'rthographe sont ceux qui lisent mal et ne sont pas fascinés par l'histoire. Aucune importance.”
