The imagination is the power that enables us to perceive the normal in the abnormal, the opposite of chaos in chaos.

A man’s work is nothing but his slow trek to rediscover through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.

You must give birth to your images. They are the future waiting to be born. Fear not the strangeness you feel. The future must enter you long before it happens. Just wait for the birth, for the the hour of the new clarity.

There are few images to be found. One has to dig for them like an archaeologist. One has to search through this ravaged landscape to find anything at all… I see so few people today who dare to address our lack of adequate images. We absolutely need images in tune with our civilization, images that resonate with what is deepest within us… to find images that are pure and clear and transparent.

Aim ridiculously high, somehow become good.…I make no difference between genres of writing: lyrics, plays, poetry, films, novels, whatever. Obviously the forms demand different things, but the goal must always be to speak as perfectly as possible all the time.

I start with an image, then I go from the image toward exploring the situation. Then I write a scene, and from the scene I find the character, from the character I find the larger plot. It’s like deductive reasoning—I start with the smaller stuff and work backward.
