Aurélien Barrau
“Nous nous sommes faits voler les mots. Ils sont dénaturés, dévoyés, mutilés. Nous ne gagnerons pas la bataille des dévoiements, des calomnies, des bassesses : reste le choix d’être poète. Construisons un avenir poétique, c’est-à-dire exigeant – presque intransigeant – et exploratoire. Car, cela, nos adversaires ne savent pas le faire. A ce jeu de la vie, ils ont déjà perdu.”
― Aurélien Barrau, Il faut une révolution politique, poétique et philosophique: Entretien avec Carole Guilbaud

Aurélien Barrau
“L’art a un rôle essentiel à jouer. Non pas au titre de divertissement ou de distraction – ce n’est pas son rôle, Nietzsche et Ionesco le mentionnaient déjà – mais en tant que machine de guerre totale contre l’univocité du sens. Il ne s’agit plus de commenter ou de comprendre le réel : il s’agit de produire du réel ! C’est beaucoup plus important.
Ce qui tue aujourd’hui et avant tout, c’est notre manque d’imagination. Notre enlisement dans l’inertie. Nous avons bien davantage besoin d’artistes que d’ingénieurs face au désastre en cours : notre problème n’est pas technique, il est axiologique et ontologique.
L’art, la littérature, la poésie sont des armes de précision. Il va falloir les dégainer.”
― Aurélien Barrau, Il faut une révolution politique, poétique et philosophique: Entretien avec Carole Guilbaud

Harold Bloom
“one doesn’t want to read badly any more than live badly since time will not relent. I don’t know that we owe God or nature a death, but nature will collect anyway, and we certainly owe mediocrity nothing, whatever collectivity it purports to advance or at least represent.”
― Harold Bloom

Ranjani Rao
“Lighting the lamp is an art. A ritual. A discipline. Lighting the lamp became my anchor, and my focus, a deliberate act, and a resolution.”
― Ranjani Rao, Rewriting My Happily Ever After: A Memoir of Divorce and Discovery

Jayita Bhattacharjee
“To find the verses in the bark of a tree...to seek the music in raindrops drumming upon the thirsty earth....to be sheltered in the silence lingering between the words...to search for a song of the fallen leaves....to revel in the gold of the olden times....to lend the ears as the earthen spirit softly speaks....to let the tales whisper from the wispy winds....of how the tree stood the test of time...this is the timeless truth of which the poet often writes.....for in the heart of the ancient woods....where the river freely runs so wild....there upon the riverbed sits the truth of all truths.....how poetry holds them all.....”
― Jayita Bhattacharjee
