I believe that art orders chaos,
that art is ashelter
to better understand our surroundings,
what we don’t understand.
Art and literature have been
great instruments of knowlege
that complete scientific and technological knowlege.
On the other hand, literature, art,
refine sensibility,
stimulate human desires,
that’s why they produce dissatisfaction
That’s a way of maintaining your own life alive
preventing human beings from becoming automatons
becoming robots,
acting simply by conditioned reflexes.
That’s the reason why
dictatorships always had a certain suspicion and fear,
all of them, no exception,
regarding this creativity that is manifested
freely through culture,
of arts and literature fundamentally.
That’s why I believe that it is very important
to preserve literature, art...
not as entertainment, as fun,
but an indispensable way of creating free citizens,
I mean, critic citizens.
