Notebooks, 1956-1978 Quotes

“for months no writing — impossible to reconcile the two — walk paying attention — I've lost sensation — closeness of the outside world around me — I'm not connecting with things any more — could be irreparable loss — trying now to recover sensations — objects for instance — the table's smoothness — its color — my hand on the paper
it's raining — that helps me — I feel better — more differentiated from things — from the outside —
blur already —”
― Danielle Collobert, Notebooks, 1956-1978
