• Publishing has gone very middlebrow. It's turned its back on legacy of modernism and gone into a humanist mode. When people go through art school they are exposed to the history of the avant-garde, and there's a general understanding that what you're doing as an artist is to a large extent, not just regurgitating that history, but engaging with it. There's this denial of that in the mainstream publishing world.

• No puedes cambiar tu vida. Este modo en la literatura va en contra del modo más pardo-medio, que trata de moldear tu destino, de cambiarlo. No puedes cambiarlo, sólo te vuelves pasivo ante él. Aunque vivamos en un universo sin Dios, hay caminos trazados, hay trayectorias, como coches de choque que tiran de esas trayectorias, chocando.
