“But while we are looking for the antidote or the medicine to cure us, that is, the new, which can only be found by plunging deep into the Unknown, we have to go on exploring sex, books, and travel, although we know that they lead us to the abyss, which as it happens, is the only place where the antidote can be found.”
— Roberto Bolaño, from “Literature+Illness=Illness” (with thanks to theoreticalliving)
