" I can see why many visual artists
dislike words in artworks. They feel
that words dirty the clear water that
has to reflect the sky. It disturbs
the pleasure of the silent image,
the freedom from history, the beauty
of nameless forms.

(...)

I know that neither images nor words,
can escape the drunkenness and
longing caused by the turning
of the world.
Words and images drink the same wine.
There is no purity to protect. "
