I Was Stirred Only Like

Eroticism Is One Of The Basic Means Of Self-knowledge, As Indispensable As Poetry.

The Theme Of The Diary Is Always The Personal, But It Does Not Mean Only A Personal Story: It Means A Personal Relationship To All Things And People. The Personal, If It Is Deep Enough, Becomes Universal, Mythical, Symbolic; I Never Generalize, Intellectualise. I See, I Hear, I Feel. These Are My Primitive Elements Of Discovery. Music, Dance, Poetry And Painting Are The Channels For Emotion. It Is Through Them That Experience Penetrates Our Bloodstream.

Secrets. Need To Disguise. The Novel Was Born Of This.

The Period Without The Diary Remains An Ordeal. Every Evening I Want My Diary As One Wants Opium.

The Love Of Only One Man Or One Woman Is An Enclosure.
