“I do not like language (but it does not follow that I advocate its dis-use or mis-use; just the contrary.) but I love words. (Please forgive this digression: for some reason we speak as though there were a connection between words and objects. One of the interesting properties of both words and objects is that they repel each other. I often like to combine them in art works, by nailing or glueing them together because of the vibration this causes.)” [full text here]
