From Krleža's answers...
About writing Piss? What? Phrases? Stupid, bombastic phrases? Speak? Whom? For ten thousand years, the whole of humanity has not been working for a long time but talking. From Socrates to the Vatican pulpits and pulpits... Print? Whom? To prove?... It also makes no sense. What would be left? Lie? Where are the bridges over which a person can be saved?
About the phrase The phrase turns the human word into vanity, feelings into molds, thoughts into stupid schemes. It is neither a lie, nor the truth, nor an illusion. A misplaced grimace, a frown at the wrong time and in the wrong place. The mysterious power of the fatal phrase about the sacred things of country, god, belief or principle is one of the darkest scarecrows of history.
Black and white In the game of black and white, I have always seen the world more from the dark side... The writer must understand that this civilization, which at times resembles a grandiose style train accident, needs ambulances and medicine more than anything else. Literature did not roll up its flags or surrender to the mercy of bestiality and stupidity, in spite of everything.
About the literary future As far as the "literary future" is concerned, if it is written by a man, he will dream as a man, and how he will dream, who knows. But his human reality will certainly appear to him in his dreams, and if it is truly human, it will still be torn between good and evil, between lies and truth, between beautiful and ugly. These will be open questions, because they are unanswered.
